Believable3 Unbelievable3

Clearly Neil & Ken don't think we're hated by enough people already. Either that or we're going to spit our way into the premiership.

Agree3 Disagree0

If it gets us there i couldnt care less

Agree0 Disagree0

Just got this strong gut feeling that we will see Beckford back in a Leeds united shirt next season, I know bates has supposedly turned him down twice but Warnock could persuade to bring him back.

Believable11 Unbelievable0

Hope so..

Agree4 Disagree1

Bates will lose face cant see it myself

Possible team with players in rumoured positions where warnock has to strengthen, constructive feedback welcome
GK- Lonergan/Kenny
DEF-almost totally new
LB-Uncertain possibly tony diagne, not sure if he plays left back?
CB-Pearce-Done
CB-Lees/Matt mills
RB-?
MID
LW-snoddy?
CM-Clayton
CM-Green/Clingan
RW-Rogers
ST
McCormack/Becchio, Diouf

sorry some positions wrong but warnock will be looking for a more pacey side and a new back 4, doubt snoddy + white will stay but we need a new left side,
Opinions?

Believable1 Unbelievable1

No not rogers! We need experience and quality he's more of a bench warmer for me, Diouf on the wing or Puncheon.

Agree4 Disagree5

Not clingan again ffs he is crap look at coventry,do we want players from relagated clubs ?

Agree2 Disagree2

Owen Hargreaves anyone? He left Man Utd for City last season and hasn't featured at all. When he was released by Man utd he said that he would play for nothing just to get back playing football again. If he can be persuaded to look at a pay as you play deal, then if he is to be believed regular football at a big championship club has got to be better for him than reserve football in the Premiership. Lets face it, when fit there aren't many better midfielders out there and certainly none in the championship and Leeds would be an ideal club for him to prove his worth.

Agree1 Disagree0

Id like to see lichaj (or however you spell his name) back at rb on a premant deal if villa go down, hes been playing for them lately and doing well, even scored, wopuld be great to see him back at Leeds

Agree0 Disagree1

He was rubbish

Agree0 Disagree0

Exclusive: a mate of mine has just come back from the cinema, via the pub and has told me that Leeds are due to sign Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Clint Barton, Bruce Banner, Nick Fury and Thorlief i Thorlief Erikkson. The Championship won't know what has hit them!

Believable2 Unbelievable4

Never heard of any of those players {Ed001's Note - Bruce Banner will smash the opposition......}

Agree3 Disagree1

What about the other one she seemed pretty fit

Agree0 Disagree0

Other teams will be green with envy. {Ed020's Note - just don't make them angry!!}

Agree1 Disagree0

Whats the cinema gotta do with owt?

Agree0 Disagree1

Cinema is the key

people alan smith saved leeds why not have him back

Believable5 Unbelievable9

Because he's carp

Agree7 Disagree6

Is that the same Alan Smith that wantsto retire and wants a training job at NUFC?

Agree7 Disagree2

What is it with you smith obsessives? People reminiscing of the days when we were a big club, get over it, it was a decade ago, bringing back smith bowyer woodgate etc won't make us a big club again, their not 21 now, their all injury prone and passed it when fit, please guys just move on, new faces new leeds

Agree8 Disagree3

Because they fancy him??

He didnt save the club he held of Admin for a while, big deal it was coming anyway! dont make out he didnt wanna go, he said himself they were the only club he wanted to go to, thus stopping any other upfront offers coming in!

Agree5 Disagree3

Because hes terrible

Agree4 Disagree2

Just ignore this/these idiot/idiots who won't shut up about Finished Smith.

Agree4 Disagree1

Its the same person every transfer window just ask ed lol

Agree0 Disagree1

Exactly! Bring in diouf!

Reading between the lines of NW comments on the OS it sounds to me that there is little, if any money to be spent on players, your thoughts? {Ed020's Note - which comments? personally can't read that from what he's said on the notes i've read. link?}

Believable2 Unbelievable5

On the OS " Robbo move unlikely", the last 3 paragraphs

Agree0 Disagree5

Cos hes pants

Agree3 Disagree2

That doesnt mean that theres is little money bcos he doesnt want robbo

Agree2 Disagree0

If NW was to get no funding for new players he would WALK, He has made that very clear, KB WILL Back him just watch....MOT

Agree3 Disagree0

He as already said at the start he wouldnt be interested in the job if. a, he could do it. b,if the fans wanted him and just getting rid of dead wood would free up aload of cash and the right out of contract players would stop us paying big cash, and 2 or 3 under 18 players coming through, could and should give us a new and hungryer team to be pround of.

Agree4 Disagree0

30 Apr 2012 10:21:53
I really really hope it goes as well NW thinks it will next season, because he is doing a really good job at fluffing the fans and chairman in believing that we are getting promoted next season, with his word he is building huge expectations, just hope he isn't shooting himself in the foot and make himself look a fool, I hope not, keeping fingers crossed, really think everyone should make an extra effort to get down ellend road next season and get it packed out (not to line KB pocket before some moan) we really need to get behind our club in numbers next season and contribute with our support and show the premiership were ready

Believable26 Unbelievable1

Cracks me up when people say were going to sign 5 players by the end of the week, no way we would do tha when the seasons just finshed. Yeah we probs will sign loads of people but wont bet in the next week. Becchio is class and allways gives a 100% so we better not let him go. Bradley orr will be coming if blackburn go dwn . Out of all the ex players linked with us i would love to see bowyer back

Believable3 Unbelievable13

Papa Smurf said we wont rush into any signings while NW wants signings done now. Guess which way it's gonna go?

Agree4 Disagree5

Totally agree with you that becchio is class and i believe that next season warnock will get the best out of a fit becchio. all that is missing from becchios game is a partner like gradel because i always thought this season if gradel hadnt been sold that becchio with max had the making of being the new chapman and wallace partnership.

Agree6 Disagree3

Warnock, with out doubt. pappa can't afford not to back him

United are back - will be the chant next season

Agree3 Disagree0

I would rather see harte back than bowyer but looks like westham are chasing him now

Agree1 Disagree4

BECHIO is class ? Come on guys wake up. BECHIO has had a great spell with Leeds but he is now so slow he'll fit nicely in Div 1. That not where we need to go. Pat him on the back now and send him out to graze. I for one want to see speed, pace and fighting ability upfront

Agree8 Disagree8

Well we could have someone slower than that coming in if its true about heskey, least becchio finds the net. heskey couldnt score in winstons

Agree5 Disagree1

Becchio is a class player mate please atleast spell his name rite if your gonna say other wise

Agree3 Disagree3

Youll regret letting Becchio go, like Howson and Beckford and any other player you moaned about until they left then you miss them in the team (yawn)
Bring in Beckford alongside Becchio and youll get the best out of him again! Great partnership

Agree2 Disagree2

Speed and Pace OK . However a guy with a name like Fighting Ability I'd have my doubts about. Mother would have huge influence on him and if she wasn't happy with the married name of Ability then ...............

Agree0 Disagree0

Dont be expecting templeton to join lads read an article saying they would want 15 million for him last season and that hearts chairman doesnt seem to hsve his head screwed on so i wouldnt expect him to change his mind he probs thinks hes actually worth that

Believable4 Unbelievable6

Correct me if im wrong but wernt hearts having trouble paying their players wages recently? doubt a club in that much financial trouble can ask that much for a player who is not worth that amount

Agree0 Disagree0

30 Apr 2012 07:37:47
Hoping to all that's holy that we don't go for Shaun Derry. I thought when he was with us last time he gave away team news to the opposing team. Also he can't play football. We have a terrible midfielder in Brown anyway, please don't add Derry.

Believable7 Unbelievable6

Sorry i think your talking out your backside. derry was never proven as giving our line up away to palace. dodgy eyes clashed with derry and was not man enough to accept it and the only way to get fans on his side was to make up malicious lies about derry. whereas derry has behaved with dignity and also stated how proud he was to play for a big club like leeds and the best club he has everplayed for

Agree4 Disagree2

This comment above sounds like it was said by the man himself Shaun we have told you stop commenting on here about yourself lol

Agree1 Disagree2

It was definatly derry, soon after that game he never played for Leeds again, cant be just a coincidence surely?

Agree1 Disagree0

Anybody with any sense knows the sale of Snodgrass will be funding these new players.....
K.B wont be adding any funds out of his own pocket....

Believable7 Unbelievable7

Anyone with any sense knows we made a 10 mil operating profit think the signings will come from that

Agree7 Disagree2

So nothing being spent out of the 10mil operating profit

Agree5 Disagree2

Anyone with any sence will know KB whants PL so he can sell at a much higher price.
KB must want PL or NW would walk now.

Bring on next season

Agree5 Disagree0

We also know K.B likes the good life abroad...Thats where the 10 mil will go...

Agree5 Disagree2

NW has said he will retire in 1 year so no point in walking for another club.

Agree2 Disagree1

Promotion isnt gonna happen on our budget just yet but cant be any worse than this season....

Agree4 Disagree4

Ken has said he hasnt put a penny in....whats that tell you?

Agree1 Disagree0

It tells me its been 5 years since all that rubbish with tax has blown over and now if we go up we don't have to pay a penny unlike this year

Agree0 Disagree0
