What about Joe Hart for season long loan? I appreciate he’s a marmite type of keeper, but may well have a point to prove this year?

We need a backup keeper for bpf not a replacement. The peacock is good enough to own the number 1 jersey.

So if the rumour is to be believed that Bartley about to sign for WBA for around 3.5 million. Got to ask the question (s) why can't we match that fee? Wasn't Leeds his preferred destination and he wanted to come? And how bad was his holiday with Ayling? Something seriously stinks with the recruitment policy at present. We were lead to believe we had a 20 million plus transfer fund including investment money from Radz selling some shares in the club. orta supposedly had great contacts along with Beilsa. Kinnear moans its a slow tough market yet other teams like Forest, Boro etc getting their business done.

In the current market I have to agree that at 3.5 million Bartley would be good business, kinnear reckons most of our squad played at 70%, I think that’s rubbish, last season we saw how poor some were, the recruitment was shocking last season and so far this seasons is even worse! . time yet, but if we won’t pay the wages that proven championship players want then we will end up with ‘risk players again, on small wages, ie cibliki, grot antonnson, De bock, wieldweld etc etc.

If last season players played at 70% season ticket holders are entitled to a 30% discount for the coming season. Kinnear is a yes man actor who if it helped would tell you the moon was made of swiss cheese. Kinnear is such a yes man every morning he calls Radz on his mobile to ask if he has permission to urinate.

After being in talks with a player for about two months we have suddenly realised he wants to much money, I have to ask how much are we paying the person involved with are transfer dealings ? I'm I being dumb here or when you are interested in a player and you approach the agent would it not be an idea to say what sort income is your player looking for .

Smoke and mirrors. Could have bought him a month ago, what was the wait. Now he asks for more wages?

Him asking for more money? Or a convenient excuse put out by Kinnear because we wasn't really serious about buying him. Roll on the loan signings.

Maybe the guy was hanging out for better offers, who knows? Why keep blaming Leeds for not signing players who don't really want to come unless we offer more than anyone else?

Bartley wanted to come we were told, we were his preferred choice. Have we really tried hard to get him?

kinnear stating we are going to be actively looking at the loan market. Maybe this is nearer the truth that we aren't really in for buying players rather than loaning them.

Because Leeds4 when you go in for top players stating they are your priority signing you have to be willing to pay more than anyone else. How do you think other teams get players. If its an unrealistic target why go in for it, media spin?

The new leeds kit is due out next week. It includes a fleece, apparently it's made of the finest material we've not seen since last years transfer BS. Never mind, roll up roll up and buy you're season tickets only to be left dissapointed with the quality (and the fleece will be launched again in December)

Ronaldo unhappy at Madrid. Leeds are reportedly "in negotiations" but fear they they may not be able to secure him and Messi? The latest disappointment looks like we will miss out on Bartley. My latest question is, were there ever serious negotiations for Hernandez and Vydra? When is the last offer, the last offer? Is it time to walk away (from what I do not know) before everybody else is gone.

Just bought tickets for the final pre season game against Las Palmas, however I’m not sure I’ll get to see any new players being given a run out at this rate. Here we are another week close to the big kick off and the window closing and still nobody to shout about. Getting very concerned now.

My only hope D is that a rough diamond (or two) will shine in the pre seasons and solve our positional crises. I hope that it's Roberts at the front and Shaugnessy at the back with Pearce carrying on where he left off. Pontus won't be there so it's a chance for someone to stake a claim.

Shaunnesy as we saw last season is too slow, struggled at times I thought, we Roberts has only ever played league one football so he may work but it’s a gamble, Pearce is the one who could do really well, liked the look of him, and very composed on the ball

I used to devour every scrap of " this man would fit", "2 players interested", "Leeds should go for". Now I am just bored. Get in the loan market. You know that's where you're heading. Do some business. Mould a team and let's get on with it. Right now I would not be surprised (or unhappy) with a team padded out with young guns (and Baker) down at Forest Green. It's only 8 days away.

A new week and a new “ Leeds linked with” player story Also linked with half a dozen other clubs, all of which seem to be cash rich and spending Just a few weeks to go till start of the season and I’m wondering if the powers that be are hoping they appointed a miracle worker rather than just a coach

No thanks to Hogan. Think all the strikers we are being linked with is a way of forcing Derby to finalise Vydra negotiations which seem stuck. Mind you will not be surprised if we end up with someone else.
