Heard it said that if we go into administration again it will mean a 20 point deduction

Source talk radio

Another Dolly Parton performance today - the Girrafes were all over the place

Best fans in the land and that's how they repay us, disgrace McDermott out play the youth team for god sake at least they'll roll their sleeves up

BMD said the players are concerned about not getting their wages and about the takeover (or lack of a takeover in this case), well here's a thought for you, why don't you start putting 100% in an playing some decent football and as much of a surprise as this may be - you might actually attract an investor and thus will get paid your wages!

Who in their right mind is going to want to invest their hard earned cash into a club where the players can't be arsed to work hard to earn their cash!

We don't need the FL to deduct any points from us, we're quite capable of getting ourselves into the relegation battle without the FLs help!

What they pay these koala clowns.

We have never conceded this many goals in a season, you are judged on your performance in most jobs, so why the HELL is McDermott still in a job? he is making us a laughing stock, we are the leagues whipping boys, basically the team just is'nt good enough and his signings have been on par with Warnocks and that's what we are stuck with and a very very poor manager who strives on his one season success at Reading, who came straight back down. "nuff said"

I agree with the above post too many excuses from bmd blaming takeover they are pro sportsmen and managers what goes on upstairs should be nothing to do with there perfomance bmd won't at training walk he will want his 2million when not if he gets sacked he trys hard to get the fans on side but that doesn't wash anymore look what dyche has done at burnley with no money look how long pompey southend and swindon players played with no money telling the press that they are talking about if they are getting payed at training bmd hang your head in shame this is your team I would have sacked you myself after signing noel hunt on 16,000 a week and he's awful doesn't matter if its cellino, haigh, verity, parkin, newdall, pearson, you mr mcdermott will be lucky to grt another sorry not good enough

I despair!, but I'm so very proud of our away support last night heard you all loud and clear on the radio last night, simply the best!

Agree with some of your comments but PORTSMOUTH are nearly in the conference so they've not over performed after not getting wages ;)

The FL will make up whatever number of points it takes to ensure Leeds United are relegated. End of!

Leeds won't sack McDermott because it'd mean we'd have to pay him off. Also, if we've got no money we wouldn't be able. To attract another "high profile" manager. As long as GFH are in control BM will have a job. Need some sort of takeover to happen soon so they can appoint a new manager!

Mcdermot is still in his job because we can't afford to sack him and he knows it. I won't be back till this whole shambles is sorted out, gfh out!, mcdermot out! And half the team out we are rubbish FACT

The major problem we have now guys regarding BMD is he has a massive payout due if we sack him and of course GFH can't afford a bag of sweets right now although I have to feel slightly sympathetic as I feel the team he has have 6/7 players that are very very poor and simply not good enough at this level and I mean players he inherited from Warcock! they are a joke! MARKYMAFIA

Need new defence only Byram shows any promise and he's being held back by others and bad tactics. Need a midfield that can pass the ball and track back. Strikers ok for this div And we need a manager with a better team talk than : I don't know if we get paid this month lads its this takeover we will just do what we can: never mind you are playing for the pride of Leeds United and all the fans who loyally follow this club. Think we need some honest answers from some one MOT
BIGE

I've been a supported of BMD but I'm sorry to say enough is enough. This is your team Brian and your tactics. Its not just a poor sun of results. its humiliating. If you have any sense of pride or decency then GO NOW. Irrelevant of what's going on with the bungling GFH and the FL this is not acceptable. The players have no pride, or respect in either themselves, the club or the supporters. In my 50 years of supporting Leeds I have never felt as disillusioned and despondent with the players, the manager and the owners as I do now. Absolutely shocking!!!

I think Ed has been replacing 'naughty' words with different animal names! Makes for a confusing but entertaining read. are there specific animals to replace certain words Eds?

if so I know what 'Giraffes' equates to and could have a guess at koala's.

{Ed013's Note - Maybe, maybe not ;-) but lets just say that swear words aren't accepted}

I've just been reading some of the quotes from BMD about how he doesn't want to make excuses but the TO is effecting to team etc etc!. what rubbish, in my all of my years working I've been in similar situations where there's been doubt about who's taking over? is the company going to close down? etc etc. But does an overpaid work force stop doing their jobs?. No if they want to keep their jobs they still perform.

Lets face it there ain't a queue of clubs wanting to buy the majority of our first team squad. A message to the players, and manager if you really do care then put the effort in. Most Leeds supporters will get behind the team if they try. but what we can't accept is lack of effort and a whole host of excuses for not trying. for gods sake take a lesson from the supporters and show some pride

The main reason CW was recalled by Gus (and not Danny Graham) was he was not keen on CW being played out of position and not as an out an out striker.

They would not have had a single striker for tonight game, jesus

Thanks mcdermott for making us a laughing stock, we thought warnock was bad, you're ten times worse, how come he is still the manager? no sorry he is not a manager, because he can't manage. one good result all season, when he was'nt there, when he was sacked. speaks volumes. just go mcdermott and let redfern pick up the pieces

A newspaper reporting Sam Byram to Southampton if no takeover!

Heard that Kyle Lafferty is on his way in the summer?

Still has at least 12 months on his contract there. Have LUFC suddenly found money to buy him?.

God hope not would think the youth is better

I'm a devout Ulsterman and my friend signed him for Burnley many years ago but the boy is trouble this is fact

Think we have more chance of signing Jeremy Kyle.

Sounds about right with a name like LAFFerty, pefect fit at our club
