Why do people think we will sign Carew. The reason he left villa is because he wanted 60k a week and villa only wanted to pay 45k a week so I highly doubt he would come to Leeds.

Believable2 Unbelievable5

*Rachubka *O'Dea
And you didn't even mention Lonergan? Also, what has having some balls got to do with making key improvements?

If you can't spell their names you clearly don't know enough about them to critisize them yet.

Agree0 Disagree0

Get a grip man for f**ks sake, get behind the team,"Stand up and sing for Leeds".

Agree0 Disagree0

What about Longeran If you want to comment on the players we have got in, at least mention them all We signed alot of players last season who turned out to be s**t ( Bessone, Kasper ) This year we have brought in decent championship players who will be improvements, get behind your team and support them through thick and thin

My god,to quote lennon,Darren wasn't ready for us.for god sake rubbish pathetic Scottish football he wasn't good enough.give me something to cheer about.all those names mentioned and we get someone no-good enough for Scottish rubbish.
Yes we have a decent 11.but it's a squad game and there's no way of perm with this.we could have pushed on from last year,fear not.all the best Leeds but I won't put too much money on promo

Believable0 Unbelievable2

Think Lichaj would have been a better signing only because we know he can perform at this level,but lets give Odea a fair crack of the whip,hes got to be better than Parker.

Agree0 Disagree0

Robert Snodgrass wasn't deemed good enough in Scotland either.

Agree0 Disagree0

O'Dea is definitely better than Parker

Agree0 Disagree0

Snodgrass isn't good enough in england either

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeah right,thats why theres an 8 million pound price tag on him.

"Montgomery has recently used Jet2 to go on a holiday to Barcelona. He plans to visit the Nou Camp stadium and eat tampons. He will be roomsharing with Billy Paynter whom Barcelona are signing to boost their attacking options. William Paul "Billy" Paynter (born 13 July 1984) is a professional footballer who currently plays for Leeds United in the Football League Championship as a strike"


nice little excerp from wikipedia on monty and paynter

O'Dea is a good signing, he's young, versatile (LB or CB), has been used to playing in front of big crowds in big games (I think he's even captained Celtic at some stage). Good piece of business and good use of the loan system.

Would love to see 2 more permanents, think we should get after LeFondre for 250k, but of a punt but could prove to be lethal. Also Montgomery would fit in nicely.

We've still got big options to utilise the loan market as well, if SG brings in a Defender (LB, RB Cover), a more creative Midfielder and a Left winger, I can see us having a really good season.

Ages left in the window as well. Good work SG. MOT

Believable2 Unbelievable2

I'd hardly call that versatile, he can play on the left side of the pitch or 5-10 yards to the right.

Agree0 Disagree0

He can play in more than one position so i would say he is versatile. i think hes a good signing

Agree0 Disagree0

"I'd hardly call that versatile, he can play on the left side of the pitch or 5-10 yards to the right."

are you really admitting you don't know the massive differences between centreback and fullback?

I wish some Leeds fans.stop moaning and get behind the team staff and manager yeah we haven't spent nothing unlike leicester and cardiff but there is plenty of good free transfers out there we might not be favorites to go up but last year we was favorites to go down and were did we finish personally don't want the 2 from sheff utd but if there sign I will back them as for o'dea good signing M.O.T

U think if Leeds announced the signings of Messi and Villa people will still be on here moaning about it come on people get a grip its 2 days before our first game this try being positive and support Leeds not slag them off

Believable1 Unbelievable0

No I don't think that. The whole point some people get frustrated is the QUALITY of signing, or lack of them. Clearly if Leeds signed Messi and Villa ( ridiculous obviously) people would be crazy with joy and disbelief. A little different to signing Oh Dear and Monty.

Agree0 Disagree0

DAMN RIGHT.. COME ON LEEDS.

Agree0 Disagree0

Don't think Messi would come, Villa might

Agree0 Disagree0

We don't need a whole team, just the odd player here and there. We'll do OK next season. If Leicester and Ipswich click with their new signings, then I think the best we can hope for is 6th (Which would do). Leicester will have to get promotion next season or they will be screwed. I reckon the top six will be:
1. West Ham
2. Leicester
3. Blackpool
4. Cardiff
5. Ipswich
6. Leeds

As for that d*ck Adrian Duram of Talk Sport stating Leeds will get relegated, I'll have a wager with the tt.

Agree0 Disagree0

Lol relegated. at least half the teams in the league are noticeably weaker than ours.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ill put everything i have on leeds not to be relelegated

Agree0 Disagree0

The only person I know who thinks buying a dozen new players and sticking them together and hoping for the best is Sven, it didn't happen for him with England and it won't at Leicester. Second place my a**e

Be great if we could get a couple of signings before the Southampton game , have faith in Larry

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Why do fans say "we will get players in - HAVE FAITH IN LARRY " - Grayson isn't pulling the strings at ER , master bates won't give him the money to get the players he wants - another loan or 2 is tha best we can hope for

Why are we all be outragously pessimistic? Why does everyone believe that every other team are stronger than us? What about Burnley ? lost 2 of their best players bought no- one in. Nottm Forest ? have done less than us in this window. Cardiff have lost Chopra, Bothroyd. Yes Leicester and Ipswich have strengthened massively, but you cant throw 11 players together and get them understanding each other. As for the teams that have come down, Blackpool are a nothing team, without Varney Adam and DJ campbell from their last campaign in the prem. Birmingham are a bits and bobs team with majority of their best players walking out the door. West Ham are the biggest threat and imo will walk the league. However i believe as an outfit we can grow from last year and i dont see competing for the playoffs being a problem, IMO we will be up and around there for most of the season.

In terms of signings we dont know what SG might bring out of the hat. And as for people moaning about those we brought in, can you remember Max Gradel when he dropped down divisions to league one to be with us, now his touted by premier league teams. Keep the faith or pipe down :)

Believable20 Unbelievable0

Absolutely correct and well stated Only really West Ham, Ipswich and Leicester have strengthened massively. Although Leics have signed 10 they are still a bit light weight up front with jus Nugent...they lost Yakubu and kamara over 10m worth of prem strikers. It really is anyones league and i think we will be in the mix of it. Reading lost mills their best defender and probably Long their star striker, although hopefully not to Leics Also Blackpool lost Vaughan a very influential player. The Championship is gonna be awesome, and roller coaster from start to finish. MOT

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree also, i think its West Hams to lose but apart from that its anyone. Building up to be a very good season and cant wait for it to kick off tommorow. With Leeds being in and around there.
