Would love to see Billy Sharp at Leeds. Would only be financed by selling McCormack imo

Lets go for Matty Fryatt from Hull City he, s prolific & cheap.
Agree1
Disagree0
Tell you what, I'd love him at Leeds this guy can score for fun with the right service.
Agree0
Disagree0
I for one wouldn't b happy with sharp he's to similar to what we have already . r vaz with pace strength and at 6.2 he'd b much more of a force, he can also play on the wing. cw

He wants to come to Celtic
Agree0

Sounds like Big Mac is hinting at getting a winger within the remainder of the window now
Agree0
Disagree0
Fryatt was prolific at Leicester but prone to injuries since his arrival at Hull so that's probably why he could be cheap.
Agree0
Disagree0
Please no. he's no better than what we have, there's a reason he can't get a look in at Southampton you know.

Byram to play rm/winger when he comes back peltier to stay
Believable40
Unbelievable19
Yeah do think when he, s fit again byram will play right wing position, just need him back playing again now, and a new left winger and we, re sorted.
Agree1
Disagree0
Why are people thinking byram will be a winger? Yes he's great at full back but has he even played on the wing for us? Just because he's a food right back doesn't mean he can play on the wing. Its a completely different position. Not having a go - just asking.
Agree2
Disagree1
Can't see it happening with pelts been linked with a swap for mills. Then we would only have Thompson at right back. Unless he plays lees right back Pearce and mills and warnock with wooton as back up. But looks unlikely to happen. dan the man

BMC has dismissed the mills for pelts rumour on radio Leeds tonight. He said it was the first he had heard of it!
Also Byram has been allowed to move forward in past so I think he would do a great job. He won't be far from returning as long as he gets back fit

Byram has played wing before actually, you can tell with his composure on the ball he can play anywhere. BMD has already stated he can put him anywhere, even CM. He definitely has the skill factor, bit thin for a CM but that's irrelevant. He'll be quality on the wing because he'll track back unlike most wingers.

Leeds are NOT talking to Bolton re a deal Mills for Peltier, this is nonsense.
Believable57

. and you know this is nonsense how?
I believe it is quite credible and fairly logical. Plus, it's been reported on new***w. That makes it a little more credible than your claim, don't you think.

Behave mate, was only stating what is in the media on a "rumours" site! He never said FACT, FACTOID, FACTAMONDO! Ha ha Why do we all fall out all the time let's be one! Rumours seen in the media are shared on this site to let others know what is out there if they haven't seen it themselves
Agree1
Disagree1
Stanners, if BMC says it is not true then I believe him over any rumours on here or any other site, but when someone tries to poopoo what you have said just because they have read it elsewhere makes them an arse not me. We should all listen to what comes from the Leeds camp and forget cheap tabloid rumours and why you may stick up for someone who is wrong beats me. Why not poopoo jaymerlins comments?
Agree1
Disagree0
I aren't "poopoo" ing anybody, I am just saying all chill out and stop biteing at each other, I aren't sticking up for anybody, he might have posted his comment before Brian dismissed it, and to be fair he didn't need to bite at your comment like he did, he read something just like you did, just a different source! Calm down
Agree0
Disagree0
Not wanting to call anyone a liar or anything, but sometimes managers etc have to say things to protect what is going on behind the scenes. How many times does a manager say "X isn't being sold" "we aren't looking at why player" then lo-and-behold X is sold and why comes in :)

Midds placed a forth offer for Ross, its on TV.
But on OS Nigel Gibbs states that; “The season before last he got double figures and there is no reason why he can’t in this team. I’m sure that he will keep creating the chances and he will also take them"
So Ross is defo NOT for sale!
Believable39
Unbelievable3
On OS that BMc confirms discussion of Contract with McCormack.
Agree1

So all we need now is to hear that Ross is not prepared to sign a new contract and we sell him to Middlesbro for 2£ mill to fund the 3 signings we still need to make us a team capable of challenging for promotion. Hope not but in the end money talks.

Apparently Leeds are in talks with Bolton again over Mills, but this time it includes a Peltier swap deal! Interesting, if byram isn't far away then it makes sense because Sam would be first choice at rb with Wootton and Lee's who can play there, aswell as green if need be!

Leeds and Bolton are in talks over a swap deal involving peltier, and in other news vaz te is believed to be on the radar as well as sharp on loan. Maybe the 2 million sale of Ross could finance all of this.

Oh please let this be true, because Peltier is one of our worst ever signings (and there's been many)last week against Leicester he did a foul throw? that, s Sunday football standards, enough said!
Agree2

Agree about his performance in first two games, but against Wednesday was quality . Played with confidence and hardly out a foot wrong . Inconsistency is a major problem but he put the Wednesday winger in his pocket and his distribution was a lot better .
Agree1

So what are you saying? keep him? please please not.

Agree with last post, confidence is everything, this lad can do a job for us, don't forget a strong midfield makes a defense look good because not too many questions are asked of them, we don't have that just yet, he has done a job for us and although there are better out there we are mid table championship side at the moment all area's need improving then you will see who the week links are.

Will be very interesting to see if we sell Ross. If we turn this down then it will prove we do not need the money. If we do sell, then invest wisely on 2 players. 1 million each, bring back becchio on loan for the season and buy a wide side player quickly. Bring back Gradel and Vaz te?
Agree0

Hopefully they will take Becchio from Norwich and leave McCormack with us.

Gary mckay-steven and billy sharpe to be leeds players by the end of the month. Bm said to have held talks with southampton last week about a season long loan deal. Mckay steven priced at 850k looks viable and within bms strict budget.
Believable39
Unbelievable14
I would love GMS to join, fantastic player with a lot of potential, and at that price he really is a bargain! However 'strict budget'? We have spent £1million on a player for the first time in 8 years, Wootton has been reported to cost around the same (but I question this) and all GFH have asked for is for Brian to lower our wage which stood at £15m BEFORE Wootton! Seems fair to me.

Somehow I cannot see Sharp coming to us. He has openly stated that he hates Leeds. Don't want another scenario like we did with Warnock. How he ever got the managers job is beyond me!

Would love to know where sharp said he hated leeds?
