Clint Hill and Shaun Derry to sign!! {Ed037's Note - That's nothing to get excited about!}

We don't need anymore oldies in the squad thanks

Yay more 35 year olds just what we need

Today's performance was a disgrace. I do not know if GFH log in to this site but if they so how manage to do so my message is. Open the purse strings and invest in some quality Leeds are somehow only two points outside the play offs and you're investment will be more than compensated if Leeds get promoted to the premiership. Be brave or else I am afraid it will be mid table mediocrity for Leeds.

Two more on the wage bill

GOD....hope not mot

OMG load of sh**e, lets have someone decent for a change!

We would be better off signing the lad who is the diouf fan

Clint Hill not too bad to stabilise the squad but not Derry again ? Are people who are being paid to scout and look for players running out of ideas or lacking enthusiasm. Is this the best you can can come up with. 'SACK THE SCOUTING STAFF' Or is this just a NW quick fix

Damn it if we get any more of warnocks old crummy players we might as well form
a team of pensioners!

I think these two will strengthen the defence. NW is shrewd, these would not be bad signings. Surplus to QPR requirements so a bargain and allowing more cash for more players

Quickly becoming eland road retirement home we have to know what's inside warlocks head with his transfer policy if either of these signs he has just signed a 24 year old player and stressed he is one for the future sorry you sign 18 to 20 year olds as players for the futur

Neither of these players will add anything to the squad that we don't already have. Both would be a huge waste of money

If we do sign these two OAP's I will start calling for Warnock out.... His love affair with Brown, negative formations, defensive approach and long ball tactics are very frustrating and will not get us promoted. George Boyd has to be our main target, we desperately need playmakers. MOT

Typical Warnock! Since he's come in the majority if players he's added to the squad are old but will work hard. When will he learn this isn't the 80's anymore, when you got the glut of your promotions. It's not enough to run around and kick the ball long, you need quality with a point to prove not in the swansong of their careers. Meanwhile our fantastic young talent contiunues being unused, on loan played out of position. Get a grip man, you were a hood manager in the bygone era but too remain at top you most adjust with the times! Ln the.brighter note we still managed to somehow.win today! MOT!

If he signs these two, Warnock might just achieve what Ken Bates failed to do ... keep my out of ER

Just shows what little money we have if more of the same sign.

Ed, any solid transfer rumours out there? {Ed037's Note - The 3 'T's seem likely to sign (Thomas, Tate and Tongue) aswell as the likes of Boyd... there's also rumours about Derry and Hill gathering pace}

01 Jan 2013 18:04:42
Tate extended to end of January, wots that about? probably got someone even older and slower lined up on a permanent deal.

01 Jan 2013 18:06:52
When Tongue comes back the centre mid will probably be Austin and Tongue, why on earth would we want Derry??

01 Jan 2013 18:09:59
All the old men we are continually linked with suggest that Warnock is looking no further than May. He is hoping to get his record and then dump us with a load of old crap while he retires to Cornwall.

I'd settle for that! I think that would be an improvement.

I'm inclined to agree with the third poster, i feel NW is stuck in his old ways and believes that the players he once had can still do the business however the reality is they are 10 and 12 years older now and are simply past it.

Ed you can't put the word pace in the same sentence as Derry & Hill. No thanks what's with the dad's army gang. Will hughes aged 17 ran rings around our pensioners, get some pacey midfielder in to spray passes. {Ed013's Note - I don't agree with them signings mate, we need young, hungry players that can take us forward}

That's not very exciting Ed. {Ed037's Note - I know its not, but that's what we've grown used to recently, i'd love to see an energetic CM, a pacey FW/winger and a RB (so Byram can be moved up to RM), but that's not going to happen!}

01 Jan 2013 12:54:15
Ive heard that max gradel and ian harte are coming back but this about CMS is aload of rubbish, wouldn't mind him but id rather have billy sharp.

We need ian heart badly as white fails as a left back so does peltier n drury is a poor mans ian harte

I remember how Slow Harte was just before he left LUFC for Levante... seen ships turn quicker.... You have all got short memory's ....

He might be able to still hit a decent free kick, but he will get murdered week in week out by the ball over the top

01 Jan 2013 11:51:02
Please not Shaun Derry, Hill would be ok but no better than tate.

Did you see the way Hill difended against Liverpool any bit of pace at all and he wasn't seen for dust .

They both crap

Hill will never join, he said in the paper the other day that qpr players need 2 play for the team or get out so abit weird if he now leaves lol

01 Jan 2013 11:06:51
leeds should try to sign a young lad 21 who playes in aussi land, he, s a kiwi called marco rojas, a class act and would cost about €1, 000, 000. chech him out.


Navanwhites

Yea hes good but its abit like gradel why would he want to come to leeds when he doing so well already .

Is this the same 'wonder kid' who is signing for reading?

Looks like the sort of player we could do with but not sure about the standard of that league, might be worth a punt though

As a exile living in OZ, would say this is a good shout. Very tricky and direct, worthy punt. MOT

You do know the Aussie league is like league one. Very difficult to judge a player in the A league.

Someone playing far too much FM2013 over crimbo lol

This is a good one..!
GET HIM IN..!

The kid is very good and will only get better, but the 2nd reply is right, all the word down here is that Reading is a done deal subject to him getting clearance.

AussieMOT

Rojas has done well - skilled, has pace and knows how to score. He is small though. Will eventually end up in the EPL for sure

No that is Rogic that is allegedly linked with Reading....not Rojas !

I live in melbourne and he plays for melbourne victory. Good player, but only for the A League. Victory won't let him go either

He`s been linked with Forest also.

John Fitz back on the scene, can't wait to here all his reliable transfer news!

01 Jan 2013 14:31:40
