Could we be approaching "put up or shut up" time? After so much talk (we all know the numerous examples) there comes a point when anyone has to deliver. Or else move aside. Arguably MC is already beyond that point. So, here goes to the extent of his footballing prowess being revealed.

So that clueless Cellino offered the job to Grayson, just goes to show. Good job he did not take it as if he lost 5 in a row everyone would be chanting for him to go

Ladies and gentlemen I have just been informed by a very close source to the club that mc has been in contact about his potential dream team to manage the club and take them forward.head coach is steve carver and assistant is chris Ramsey! Oh problem is that they are going to be in sub high demand after their efforts this season that we can't compete with the likes if barca and bayern for their dignity re!cant reveal my sorces name but he is made of wood, has a distinctive nose and really wants to be a real boy!

We go t a big problem at leeds the way I see it if bamba is telling it how it is fair play to him if we have got player power in the dressing room due to thommo leaving then we go major problems no player is bigger than the name and pride of our club if players got shot of thommo because they didn't like his training styles the fact was we were playing much better under his guidance along with redders so if u got any balls cellino get him back get rid of the spoilt brats and bring in players who want this club to succeed if not then sell up and go because I for one like many on here have now had enough of the lies and petty squabbles your making this great club and us look like mugs!!! Rant over

The players did not get rid of Thommo, Salerno did. Players just saying they do not miss him some do some dont. If my boss left some of us would miss him, others think he's a tosser. People are making it into a player power thing and it is not. This is a reason why I do not think Redfearn is up to the job. He was responsible for team affairs and his assistant slags his boss off and half his players are slagging the club off in the press. Not in control of much is he. Sylvestri had to take to twitter to show is scars because Redfearn implied in an interview that six of them were swinging the lead, and I note the other five have not been running to the press. that's professionalism keeping your mouth shut and dealing with it. All Redfearn had to say was if they are injured we will just have to get on with it. Not start bleating on about they were fit thursday, I only have to give four hours notice for a sickie. And the galling thing is he would not have played them anyway. No Redfearn might have some of the lads behind him, or all of them, but he is definately not in control of any of them. If that was Sylvestri going to the press to slag him off he would never play again. Yet its okay for a journeyman to slag the club off and Redders says nothing. Wish my manager was that soft.

Think there's more too it than just your dislike to Redders, Bige. Redders seems an honest kind of guy heart on sleeve etc (well he is a Yorkshireman!) Could there not of been an hidden agenda(s) to keep him out of the loop ie Redders wasn't told of the injurys when he should of been hence why he said what he did. Umbers had to make a vague statememt but only after the poo had hit the fan! And to be quite honest Bige after what happened to ST and being kept in the dark about that also. to be fair wouldn't your patience be running thin? Even Cellino has said the club in worse position/condition than when he came on board, wether that's financially(which I doubt) or internally only time will tell.Me personally would like see what comes out of ER before any mud starts to fly. because at the end of the day no one knows nowt really do they all hear say and conjecture. Just my opinion but its takes a long time to come out of depression and we've been in it for over 10yrs now. Abit of prozac(other drugs for depression are available) isn't the answer in the short term. let's just see what happens before we start the castrations!

Agree1 Disagree2

05 May 2015 09:52:56
And ps Bige the journyman as you call him has at least had the big cahoonas to come out and said what a lot even most of us think! Well said Mr Bamba!! Applause!

I don't dislike Redfearn and m. What I can not do with is everyone laying blame at everyone elses door when no one knows what happened. Redfearn told the press, I don't know what's wrong with them, they were fit on thursday when what he should have said was I have been told they are injured so we need to use what we got. He has made it into a vendetta as much as anyone else. what would you do if your boss went public about you like that, would you still love him. No he has a lot to learn about public relations as do the players, Bamba and Sylvestri. Everyone blaming Cellino for everything when he has done everything the fans wanted, maybe his choice of players is dubious but we can't say that as we have not seen half of them play. Redf
earn should stay at the club but he is not our saviour.

Red Bull will be as bad for Leeds as Pete Winkleman was for Wimbledon, I don't care how much money they pump in. If it's a choice between watching the club get turned into an advert or carry on with Cellino's insanity, I'll take my chances with the italian. At least Leeds will still be Leeds when Cellino gets bored and sells up.

You can't be serious about preferring to stick with MC and having to endure season after season of conflict, crap football, under achievemet, scandals, lies and joke headlines just so that we cn still call the ground Elland Rd and not have Red Bull on the shirts?! Time and circumstances move on, if LUFC don't we can expect another 15 years of pain, declining crowds, average players, deteriorating stadium etc etc. IT TIME FOR REAL CHANGE.

05 May 2015 13:17:29
Bic, if our only options are Cellno or Redbull, then Cellino, mad and disruptive as he may be, is the only one of those two who won't rip the club apart for money. Not only do I not want Redbull involved with Leeds, but I don't want them anywhere near english football. If another option becomes open, then great, but for now Cellino is the only option for Leeds United.

I think it's clear reddders can't pick the right players for a team. Wrong choices and wrong subs
We are however in better condition with a more talented bunch of players
A little tweak with about 5 players. Get rid of about 5 and most of loanees and manager and I still reckon we got more chance next year
Pigeon steps but in right direction

Believable4 Unbelievable1

04 May 2015 14:52:18
The big question is who could we bring in if Redders doesn't stay?
Who is available who would be the head coach in the setup we have, most conventional managers wouldn't be interested as they would want to make all decisions!
Be interesting to see who others think would suit us that would be available, not many I reckon

04 May 2015 15:23:08
Kebabman, not knowing what other options are available who will work under the current regime is not the best reason to keep the current coach

now know what bamba said a case of us and mc players causing split . always something behind scenes rocking the boat this is why united is not united .I thought at start of season some players were in no matter what since nr in charge certain players have not got look in .that's mc signings or perhaps mates not good for team . hopefully who ever takes over or stays as it is will pick players they want not mc .tommo went for speaking his mind so bamba will be gone as well .never works out when owner picks new players . clearly not enough talking going on, hence a split in team SO SORT IT OUT AND GET BACK ON TRACK .WE THE FANS WANT BETTER AND DESERVE IT . BEST IN LAND

Sorry it was 1993 we beat Man U in youth cup final, dementia and all that

Believable1 Unbelievable0

04 May 2015 10:01:34
Does anyone know how many times our young players have won any trophies over the past eight years. I remember when we beat Man U was it 2003 in the youth cup, half that Man U team went on to be champions. And when we won it in 1997 with Woodgate, Kewell and Robinson. It seems our youth policy is not just down to Redfearn but Others as well like Blunt who recognises the talent signs them up then starts them on their journey. The U21 coaches use players that have come through the system and the cream always rises to the top whatever. We have a lot of talent in the U17 and U19 teams and that looks good for the future when we are in the premier league

Mornin peeps. Well the next chapter of farce dawns, what is on the agenda? Exactly, we have no clue. For the last 15 years, all our problems have come from the top, more smoke and mirrors than in a smoke and mirror warehouse with lots of smoke and mirrors in it. Look at any successful team and you see harmony from top to bottom, good working relationships throughout. Mushroom treatment, broken promises and bizarre decisions just create uncetainty, fear, frustration and resentment. what's happening at my beloved club, well, you just couldn't make it up. Being Leeds I am used to ridicule, abuse (mainly the mancs), laughter and more. But I have hit rock bottom, I am actually being given pity, and that is hard to take!

Know what you mean, what happened to fortress Leeds. Everyone at the club should be pulling in the same direction. People should not be running to the media. I don't really care if Morrison felt sorry for Redrearn or Thommo was Bambas mate at Leicester. I care about Leeds United and that sort of thing is not helpful. Cellino gets all the stick but was it not him who gave Redfearn the job in the first place, or was that wrong, he can't win. Club loyalty seems to be a thing of the past. I could understand everyone against GFH and Bates but Cellino has been here a year and we have progressed, even with GFH hanging on to our coat tails. Cellino is still willing to invest. If we have to sell anyone to meet FFP rules so be it as long as the club moves forward. I hope Cellino has the right mind set when he takes charge again and when we get to the premiership and all the guys calling for him to go and giving Sky and the papers another reason to ridicule our great club chant their apologies for being so shortsighted

Does Bamba really need to be airing his opinions to media at this point when things need sorting, just stoking the flames. Cellino probably knows what needs doing, same old Leeds airing their dirty laundry in front of everyone. Reasons will come out without feeding the media. I know he has a right to voice his opinion but there is a time and place. If he knows the full facts then say it if not shut up.

don't know what he said but is his loan deal up . also bamba take a look at yourself came here play great but lately you look to casual and fall asleep in second half

04 May 2015 13:56:56
Bige, bamba did right thing. Eventually there always come a time to expose a debacle and call someone's bluff. That time has arrived. Leeds fans canna take much more of this. Needs sorting now else Leeds fans will become more than restless.

George if he had exposed the debacle I would understand he has just stated Thommo was my mate I do not think he should go some other players think different. All he has done is made the split bigger. He has not said why Thommo was suspended, what he said why he said it, so its just a case of Mr Bamba getting in the papers, not honest and brave but arrogant and stupid. Detrimental to the club and his career No one else has come out to slag Thommo off and even Thommo has kept quiet. So why did he feel the need , he loves our club so much, nonsense he been here five minutes

04 May 2015 07:50:37
well we did considering we had no striker let's face facts sharp came from Doncaster . morison loaned out last year to millwall they didn't want him so that as been our biggest proble all season . soll matt smith how many did he score last year and how many has he scored this year says it all .AND NOW LEEDS WANT US TO BUY SEASON TICKETS BY END OF MAY SEASON FINISHED 2ND GET YOUR SEASON TICKET BY 13TH MAY WASNT IT END OF JUNE LAST YEAR??? I mean know one knows what's going on but give us your money in 4 weeks another joke . even £6 for car park ful of holes puddles no lighting and on Saturday took me till 3-10 to get out

Agree about Smith big mistake. Hopefully Cellino has not just been sunbathing while he has been away and we should have a clearer picture of what's happening and what type of players we are going for in a couple of weeks.

Seriously. Should they be allowed anywhere near our bench even? NO!
