On various twitter accounts that Lorimer said at a Leeds on the road event tonight that a deal to re-sign Delph on loan was almost complete.

This is 100% true but the only hold up is Delph him self because he would prefer to stay with a premiership team, but I think it's only championship teams so he would obviously choose Leeds, he is travelling up home this weekend so hopefully he could be putting the pen to paper.

if leeds wont sign jason puncheon because he knocked us back once why would we sign keith andrews

Its because bates thinks we are all thick up north mate and he knows he will still get 10k season tickets year in year out without putting anything back into the club or sorry new boxs in east stand which non of us will ever see

Because grass isnt always greener. I hope we get Andrews

We wont be signing either.I have a close inside source at training ground and we will be signing St Ledger and Adam Smith and Delph IS a possible.Also if we go down at the palace tommorow,Warnock will be manager this time next week(and i hate the man)!

PS we dont need either.when snods is fit he can do howsons job in behind mckormack,with townsend and rogers wide and clayton and pugh centre(unless we sign a cm).+ we should break the bank to get cox(WBA)!

The reason we would still want Andrews is because he only turned us down because Blackburn did the deal for the whole season behind his back and he just wanted a short term deal initially.
Also Puncheon had agreed to join us and the staff were waiting at Thorpe Arch to conclude the deal when they saw him on SSN rushing to beat the deadline to sign for QPR and he didn't have the nadgers to phone and tell us or apologise either.

My source says that Leeds may or may not sign players this month.
He knows because he is reliably informed by someone who once was at a Leeds game and on the way into the ground spoke to a match day programme seller who is related to someone who read in the YEP that Leeds have a record of signing players.

There, that is how silly it all sounds.

Beckford won't come back to Leeds (Wages)
Clingan deal now more likely that he is out of contract
Expect Paynter to leave on loan and o'brien to leave permantly
Probably will sign adam smith (RB) from spurs, but would prefer lichaj or someone with more experience

I'm not sure we need a new right back with how well thompson has been performing

Dont think beckford can go anywhere as he's already played for two clubs this season ,?????

Beckford has only played for 1 club he never played for everton this season he went to leicester in the summer, so he could still play for leeds this season

Get over Beckford! Div 1 player at best, stop going on about him. Anybody who know's anything about football knows he's crap!!!

Hows beckford crap? he did well for everton! if you knew anything about football you'd know that!

Beckford is div 1 at best r u having a laugh . he scored 10 goals for everton in a short space of time in a season where he was on bench alot. he would b playing in everton team this season if 4 mil hadn't been offered to them . his goal scoring record is prety good .

Agree with the post above, The fact we created enough chances for becchio to score 20+ in the championship undermines beckfords achievements with practically the same squad in the division below. If Leeds sign a quality clinical striker and a solid leader of a centre half we will be laughing.

Billy Paynter wants out of Leeds either on loan or sold to another club. Looks like Coventry are interested.

Straight swap for clingan?.Bite their hand off lol

Suspect it'll be Billy and about 150k for Sammy, would still be a fair deal for both parties. Hope Billy does well wherever he goes though. Has never had any luck since coming but always gives 100% and hope the fans welcome him back if he plays us again.

A story from inside the club just left
a talk and a player will be joining
leeds today cannot confirm if it is a
loan or permo but watch this space
leedsunited.com simon grayson is
chokker with talks post on here alot
and have not been wrong yet

Grayson said no new signings before Palace game so looks like you're wrong.

Wow! so what you are saying is that a player may or may not be joining us in the transfer window..............hot news!

I know the guys who has to print the shirts when a new player is signed and he's not text me yet to say he has been asked to print anything.

S G said in the EP that he was cautiously optimistic that signings would be made before the Palace game

Grayson out, Why the hell have we no defenders in yet ???

To the guy who said grayson out and why havent we had any defenders in yet! We have a month overall to find the best players we need for the best value. Now if yoou would rather Grayson panic buy and end up with a awful defender like richard naylor then thants up to you. I would rather Grayson take his time and buy a couple of defenders that would be alot better. In grayson I trust MOT

You would rather Grayson take his time?? he's had 3 F'ing years and he still hasn't sorted the defence.

Fair point well made, just how long have we had a "below par" back four? too long i think is the answer ur looking for. still we live in hope, ups n downs:-/

What a spot on source you have at the club, less than four hours to go before today is over and you can prove to all the doubters that you are not a spoofer

Elliott Kebbie has joined Atletico Madrid and we ar expected to get 500K compensation. Great talent lost for little money.

Great talent? he couldn't cut it at Madrid, and wasn't even given a short term deal.

he's got pace, but little ability apparently, and I don't think we'll get anywhere near 500k.

no great loss, another who probably wouldn't have made the grade.

Think that was Barcelona not Madrid my friend.

How can you say that look what happened to taiwo and woods to apparant great prospects who have failed to live up to their potential you cannot say kebbie will be world class

The 500 k was set if he joined another club after moving to Spain so you talk rubbish.4 yr deal given to him by athletico so they think a lot of him.

It was barca for a start, he couldn't cut it! you wouldn't get close to a chance at Barca and he's signed for a class team in Spain. don't belittle his achievement

Couldnt could it at madrid, firstly it was barca n secondly, theres 99% of all players in the world who cant cut it at barca, that's why they're by far the best team in the world

Coventry have agreed a deal with middlesborough to sign Jutkiewitz so Becchio won't be leaving and just remind all you Leeds fans of someone who is a great goalscorer when fit is Davide Somma he is recovering and close to coming back to training. I think the only two signings we will make in the next 5 days is Clingan and St Ledger! Mark my words...

Somma probably wont be back until the last game of the season as we did with kissi so dont get hopes up about him this season

Becchio was never going to go to Boro as they couldnt afford the fee as he is under contract. His agent did approach Boro though as Becchio was unhappy recently when he wasnt getting in the team. He wanted them to pay him £15k p/w and double it if promoted

I thought jutkiwiesz (can't be bothered to get actual spelling) played for everyone and was laned to Coventry ?
