No he ain't you wait and see
Agree0

Southampton midfielder James Ward-Prowse says he will not be happy with another year among the substitutes after his debut Premier League season.
Ward-Prowse started Saints' first match of the campaign against Manchester City but began just three more league games. In total the teenager made 11 league substitute appearances and he is desperate to prove himself next season.
"I am only 18 but I'm not content sitting on the bench, "
Sounds like BmcD's kind of player, young and hungary, let's get him in!

Hes a prem player not a championship player
Agree0

Agreed. If he's good enough we should look to sign him for sure his attitude seems to be bang on
F92
Agree0

If he is a premiership benchwarmer, i'm sure he'd love being a main player for Leeds
Agree0
Disagree0
Would love to see him but unlikely been compared to Gascoigne so want drop a Division when he is capable if cutting it in the perm already
Agree0

He wouldn't even b a main player at leeds.

Brian McDermott could make a move for highly rated Dundee United winger Mackay-steven. To be honest he is a quality winger with pace and skill and is what we're looking for but will cost a bit of money but worth it.
Believable36
Unbelievable7
We won't have the money to sign him

Lol he's just what your looking for not what leeds are looking for

Probably have to sell somebody first in order to buy him.

Leeds will sign Lee Tomlin from Peterborough as he does not want to play league 1 football next season.
Believable25
Unbelievable39
I've always liked the lad, good football brain. IMO if he lost a bit off timber Tomlin could be a real player. Brian is the sort off manager ( working on his fitness) who could take Tomlin to the next level. At ER posh front 2 gave us real problems. Don't know if the rumour is right though
Agree0
Disagree0
If the below is true its not the sort of player we need at ER
A drunk footballer called a policeman a 'tramp' then offered to buy him a BMW, a court heard.
Lee Tomlin, a midfielder with Championship side Peterborough United, was on a night out when he told the PC he should 'get a proper job'.
The 22-year-old winger was challenged during a late-night incident in Leicester city centre, the court was told.

Didn't every front 2 give us real problems last season?

Brian McDermott could make a move for Dundee Utd winger Gary Mackay-Steven after the highly rated winger confirmed he wants to leave the club.
Believable38
Unbelievable13
Would be fantastic signing I would also like to see danny simpson push byram to rm and that would be the wingers sorted out
Agree1
Disagree0
I hope that's the plan with Wabara coming. with regards to Mackay Stevens, in the same mould as russell, would love to see Ross M paired up with another Scot
Agree0

He would be a quality signing, as I am half Scottish and my grandad is a Dundee United fan he says he is like a Scottish Ronaldo

Dundee want 750, 00 for him. That's 750,000 more than Leeds can afford

To the fourth reply. You know this how?

Nice to have the Leeds accountants on this web page. Unless you have had a look at the LUFC books how do you know what we can and what we cannot afford. So glass half empty, its time to get a grip.
Agree0
Disagree0
To the previous two replies have you actually followed Leeds' transfer activity over recent years? Last year we pretty much only spent what we received in. Think you owe the previous poster an apology.
Agree0
Disagree0
Well we know now that we have some cash to spend after the capture of Luke Murphy for £1m and the trading of several millions of pounds worth in shares for GFH. If they really are going to back the gaffer, this shouldn't be too much of an unrealistic target.
Agree0

We just brought Luke Murphy for over £1 mil so we can afford him

Just been to Thorpe Arche and I can CONFIRM the player there having a medical with the Leeds coaching and medical staff is in fact a surprise one. This is a massive FACT and the BM's second signing (assuming he passes the medical) is Titus Bramble. MOT.
Believable17
Unbelievable51
I hope not, I have lived in Ipswich for a while and have met him and he is a massive ar*ehole. and trouble.
Agree0

He wouldn't pass a decent medical in a month of Sundays
Agree0

Didn. t you also post that Dean Whitehead Jermaine Pennant Johnny Russell, Matt Killgallon Tim Matav are all signing for Leeds!
Agree0
Disagree0
I think you we're passing and you overheard that they wnt to clear some bramble (this is the improvements B McD wants to make at Thorpe Arch!)
That's where the confusion has come!
Agree0
Disagree0
We've got some of the best facilities in the country. Maybe we're assessing Bramble to understand why he's so s**t at professionl football.

Phil Hay who works for the YEP, has this morning rubbished reports linking Stephen Hunt to Leeds saying they're 'well wide off the mark. '
A player is rumoured to be having a medical today at Thorp Arch with BM's 2nd deal imminent. The player is likely to be Noel Hunt or Reece Wabara however, it could be a surprise like the Matt Smith deal.
Believable36
Unbelievable12
Covered all bases there, Noel Hunt, Wabara or a surprise lol good work.

Can not see it been noel hunt if he was on a stag do last night.

He actually corrected himself later stating that he meant Noel hunt wouldn't be joining

Noel hunt is getting married in Ireland so he defo not around this week but it will be sorted in next week or so.
Agree0

12 Jun 2013 00:52:08
He (Phil Hay) infact corrected himself and said he meant to say Noel Hunt if you read on further up his twitter feed (it's a reply to someone who was celebrating the fact it wasn't his brother!) Fingers crossed this other striker is somebody we aren't expecting! Unless its Doyle/Ebanks-Blake in which case I would be happy so long as our real gem signings are two fast and good wingers with at least one being well known!

Korey smith and Cameron Stewart latest names to be linked to us on the unreliable world of twitter!
I saw Matt Smith's name linked on their the other day so you never know, these could be possible. Would be decent, young, hungry players, exactly what McDermott's looking for. Korey Smith would come on a free so that is looking more probable than Stewart knowing Leeds and the GFH's current lack of ambition evident. (Would be weird if we sign a player from Norwich for a change instead of the other way around!)
Believable4
Unbelievable18
Don't think it would be weird getting a player from Norwich. At first they just thought we were a pushover in getting some of our best players, but Warnock surpassed himself in proving that we not only let them have our best players, we are also happy to let them go for free and take their cast offs in return?

I would take both Korey Smith & Cameron Stewart.

Leeds are interested in out of contract winger David Wotherspoon. The 23 year old has yet to be given a new deal at Hibernian and could well be on his way. Hearts also interested.

According to the daily snail we are set to not only get the fantastic noel hunt but also his older (yes older) brother stephen hunt! i'm not happy with either, noel hardly has a good scoring record and is old, whereas stephen was good (still not bad now) but is even older! I hope neither is true to be honest, would be a step in the wrong direction. I doubt they will come too, because McD said he wanted to focus on the long term. (hence why he's working on thorp arch)

Stephen Hunt is 31 and would be a good signing. Some older players are good and still worth having, it's not like we are signing 35yr old useless players like Brown again

Must be 100% factual, true and beyond doubt if it's in the snail, they just love to tell everyone what's going on, don't they?
Agree0

I'm pretty sure that stephen is older than noel?
Agree0

S hunt would be great signing. everone is acting like anyone over the age of 29 should retire or just give up the ghost and die. 31 is not old and could still offer something. 30+ players are needed to get out of this league look at QPR and Portsmouth and players like craig Bellemy. S hunt should be welcome with open arms. 31 year old hunt or a younger Hall? I know who I would rather have

Met Noel Hunt and Ian Harte last night. They were on his stag at his pub The Dugout in Clare. There's a picture of all of us on his twitter page. He said he was signing for Leeds and a deal should be done soon. Ian Harte said he wasn't coming back though, told me not to put any money on it

Original Poster here. They were in Galway on Saturday night but came down to Ennis on Sunday morning and watched the Clare hurling team train. there's a pic of Ian Harte and a few of the hurlers on Sean Collins twitter page for anyone that doesn't believe me! They then went for a round of golf in Dromoland Castle. The pic is of my soccer team, Turnpike Rovers. As you can see where holding up tops which The Dugout Bar sponsored. Hunt is leasing the Pub with Davy Fitz, the small lad in the orange t-shirt (Clare Hurling Manager). The only one in the pic in the stag group is Fitz, Hunt, Harte and d lad in d red shirt, rest is the team and mentors. I'm the good looking guy in the pic! :-) Have to say Hunt and Harte are gents and down to earth. Hunt said yes to everyone that asked for a photo. With all that info do people still think I could be lying!

Believable14

I would have Simeon Jackson. He has lots of pace and knows how to finish. He may be small but alongside bigger fowards/players would excel in the CHampionship. Ideal for coming off the bench to scare tiring defenders
