Is Tom Ince really worth ten million? Does he command a price tag like that because of his ability now or future potential, I don't think I would be happy if we paid that to get him, he's not even a proven premier player is he? I suppose time will tell, some of these transfer costs are bordering on idiotic! Reminds me of the Ridsdale buying Johnson and co era!

Yeah like 2 million for a player who does nothing but run. Hadi sacko. Money well spent there not lol

He's a good championship player with pace and flair, I think it would be a decent signing to get us up. But that money is ridiculous

Agree7 Disagree3

Swadlad, never anything nice to comment about your own team?

Agree9 Disagree4

01 Jul 2017 11:12:22
What's good about Leeds at the minute? Chris wood will probably leave for a premiership team n we are signing 1 season wonder players so yeah please excuse me for being negative

01 Jul 2017 12:04:11
Never spoken to an udders fan swadlad, what's it like supporting such shit called town. TOWN hahahaha:/ only Be happy when Leeds are 4-0 up won't you? Hardly a Leeds fan if you're grumbling in the most positive period in the last 13 years

Agree8 Disagree1

I will tell you what's good about Leeds United at the moment, we are being managed properly for the first time in years, whether that means signing dross players for now to get us more stable then so be it, no more bad press which is another thing that's good about Leeds United at the moment, but the really really good thing about Leeds United at the moment is supporters like you are in the minority and always will be.

If Leeds are that bad then don't go and waste your money watching them but I suppose it's the only time you get to sit next to people in a crowd instead of sitting in the corner on your own or being thrown out of a pub with only four people in! DG90, Ausman, MM, Martyn, George, Aussie, Curahee, Davey, and all the others I've not mentioned are all top geezers who put good points out there for debate, so we all must be deluded and we are not worthy of your time Swadlad so please except our apologies for wanting to support our team through good and bad but that's what we do us deluded Leeds fans.

I for one won't be posting anymore replies to you because you are now boring me with your drivel and I can't be doing with having an annoying itch I can't scratch!

Swadlad, suggest you raid your piggy bank and go down the pub and cheer yourself up. If that fails, pick a fight with a bouncer!

Swad stands for swadlincote which is near derby.

Boraboy oops sorry I mean Swadlad you said earliest Icelandic centre back would be a dross signing? Was he dross when they knocked England out of the euros last year? But I guess even England internationals wouldn't be good enough for you.

Believable9 Unbelievable2

1 good game doesn't make any player good. Kyle Bartley is a better player who knows the league.

Agree1 Disagree14

30 Jun 2017 21:49:51
Nice one buddy, you should know that any good players are destined for Boro so maybe it's best to just pack up now and get a second team like Swad! Apparently he can guarantee that Howson will go to Boro cause they have more to offer and besides that we only get dross signings and he says I probably hate Millwall and the Wendies and that makes him laugh!

Why does he want to rain so heavily on our optimism maybe it's something to do with the condition called twoteamsyndrom or whatever. If we as true Leeds supporters can show optimism when the likes of some of the latest managers and signings we've had then I'm sure we have the right now to be in dream land the way Radz is going on with business, you know ask yourself who had ever heard of Wagner, Mooey, Konte and many others that are now world class but as soon as we go for any unknown Manager or players they are labelled as dross!

Why is it just cause Leeds have got them or is you are a great philosopher of football? I think we know the answer eh mate. MOT

If I remember boraboy it was plenty of good games

Which country is it Bartley represents? And how many caps has he got.

Agree10 Disagree0

30 Jun 2017 22:43:45
Spot on mate absolutely spot on, this is the best pre season we have had for being optimistic for years so bring it on eh Martyn, we know who our number one and only team is and it's the only team to support Super Leeds, just a quick question Martyn as I'm stuck on this question, please could you tell me the last time Middlesbrough were in the Semi Final of The Champions League? I just can't remember mate! MOT

Agree8 Disagree1

30 Jun 2017 23:39:19
Haha mike right there you have just proven my point about deluded Leeds fans, living in the past ain't you lol, Kyle Bartley represents England Martyn, I think your find being a international of Iceland is far easier than a England international so your point fails I'm afraid. And yeah mike it does make me laugh when Leeds fans hate other teams lol it shows how idiotic Leeds fans are, it's a game of football not life and death lol.

But it's fine you be happy with the many average players Leeds are signing n expect miracles from them only too see at the end if the season that Leeds have failed to get promoted once again. Your support is just blind support, I see what keeps happening and Il say my opinion and I don't expect you to agree because we ain't all the same but unlike you il take my beer goggles of and say what needs saying.

Unless the signings improve we will not be getting promoted and you can forget howson joining imo, and to say we have players just as good as howson shows how little you know of football.

I think that would be none woody. Would just like to let swad know that bora are advertising for a dressing room match day fluffer! Opertunity to get closer to cid withoutout him getting an induction out against Swadlad for stalking. He's prob applied for job already anyway.

Agree6 Disagree1

01 Jul 2017 01:24:44
That's funny mate great post, I think the season is going to be an unpredictable one, the most unpredictable one for years as there is a lot of money being spent and a few different clubs spending it, I think ours will be great or rubbish, I don't think we will have a runaway leader, Villa, Boro, Fulham, Wendies, all up there with Sheffield United could be a surprise team, hopefully us up there, Sunderland were looking a mid table but Grayson could do wonders there, Monk will do good at Boro but that depends on who goes and who they get in. This just might be to soon for us and next season the one for us, just have to wait and see but whatever happens I will always be the ignorant, stupid, deluded, fool, following Leeds fan I always have been!

01 Jul 2017 08:24:30
Lmao nice one mike, I said you were deluded not ignorant, not ignorant, stupid or a fool haha. That's exactly my thoughts on Leeds fans very simple who will accept yet another poor season in this terrible league lol and that's fair enough if that's all you want but I don't I want promotion to not have to go though another embarrassing season getting beat by Burton Albion but we all have different targets and as you said your still be there supporting them a year later n the rest of your life because that's what true fans do lol that's where your wrong imo, Leeds shouldn't be a team in the championship, I accept you have to earn your position to get promoted but Leeds won't be doing that when all they ever do is sign average players along with average managers. Oh well the new gk will do great for us won't be lol he averages 2 goals conceeded per game. I'm sure we will get along way with him in goal haha

Agree0 Disagree4

01 Jul 2017 08:54:13
Martyn me knowing Garry monk is a far better manager than the one we have now is not me stalking him it's me having knowledge of football and as iv said I'm not even a fan of Garry monk as he was another useless manager we brought in n slated after 3 months as Leeds fans are well known for. I'm saying like it or not with the manager we have now we have taken a big step backwards. you can't expect someone who has been managing in Cyprus to come to England and succeed, people will say oh what about Huddersfields manager n so on but David Wagner was managing in a better league than Cyprus. We lost David Stockdale to Birmingham lol says it all, he's even a Leeds fan yet we lose him to Birmingham, embarrassing. We get someone who let's 2 goals in per game lol jeeze can't wait to watch him lol

Agree0 Disagree7

01 Jul 2017 09:09:17
Getting beat by button albion? Not with the great monk in charge? As for getting a room son we tried but they said the last double was booked by hissing cid and fluffer boy.

Agree5 Disagree0

01 Jul 2017 10:34:43
Haha good post Martyn oh better post mike lol like a love affair going on lol yes Garry monk was in charge when we lost to Burton Albion n he wasn't good enough I'm not saying he was but to change him for the unknown we have is a sign of a lack of ambition. You might be happy with that but I am not.

Agree0 Disagree5

01 Jul 2017 10:31:47
If really don't think I've ever met such a negative Leeds follower in all my life, Swadlad maybe does have some good points but I don't think we need it ramming down our throats after all this a banter site, for the record I never said football was life or death nor do I hate any team or supporters to the point death!

Deep stuff this eh! All of our opinions are light hearted, truthful, maybe deluded, maybe spot on and maybe head in the clouds dream land stuff but whatever they are they are our thoughts and at the moment great optimistic thoughts, we have no rights to be in the Prem but we have a good chance of getting there now the engine room is cracking on.

Swadlad with all respect to you we have had so much turmoil, court cases, transfer embargos, fines and ownership irregularities, now we have one owner, no more loanees, no more over paid free loaders, what we do have is a good owner with good intentions, he's making signings.

it's something good to talk about for a change, the players are in the price brackets we've never had the money to go for before, we are riding on a wave not a big wave granted but a wave never the less.

It's what makes deluded supporters like me tick, I'm not on here to fall out and bad mouth people but come Swadlad give us a all a break, after all you never know you might have to eat your words at the end of the season if not we moan and then start the optimism again for the next season. Have a good weekend all and that includes you Swadlad! MOT

Agree7 Disagree1

01 Jul 2017 11:23:00
It really doesn't matter my opinion is my opinion and I accept it's a negative opinion but untill Leeds sign players I think are of a decent standard I won't be changing my opinion, these players we are getting are not going to get Leeds united up into the mix of the playoffs. Can't see Chris wood staying as no one that scores 30 goals in 1 season should be playing at this level. The gk we have just signed averaged conceeded 2 goals per game in his time at his club sorry but that is not a good signing. Now the positives, the defence is pretty good just need a better cb than what is reported we might get, the whole midfield needs changing definitely Pablo Hernandez and his lack of effort once we turned his loan into a permanent signing.

Agree1 Disagree6

01 Jul 2017 11:45:32
Haha Monk the genius lost to Burton and we weren't even interested in Stockdale. You're so boring Swaddy.

Agree5 Disagree1

01 Jul 2017 11:51:36
Yes Leeds were definitely interested in Stockdale and even if we weren't does that not say how bad Leeds are? He has been a unreal to for years now so if we weren't interested you have to ask why the heck not? He's much better than every to we have that's for sure.

Agree0 Disagree6

01 Jul 2017 11:53:25
Also sg90 I'm not asking you to be interested am I lol don't reply if you find me boring use your brain lol

Agree0 Disagree4

01 Jul 2017 12:12:24
Other than fans begging him to sign on social media, I saw nothing linking us with Stockdale. He's not better than Green anyway, so what are you crying about?

Agree2 Disagree5

01 Jul 2017 13:44:52
He's not better than green well that says everything I was saying about deluded Leeds fans. Green use to be better but he's definitely not now, record proves it :)

Agree5 Disagree3

02 Jul 2017 09:59:39
Swad, who or what exactly are you?

Agree2 Disagree3

02 Jul 2017 15:02:27
I do think Middlesbrough are a better more stable team than Leeds which was my original post which I still stand by. Doesn't mean I don't support Leeds united but means I can see what's going on at Leeds.

Agree6 Disagree1

30 Jun 2017 16:49:20
Rumour on newsnow. co. uk is Leeds are going in for Snodgrass! Can't see that but read it for yourselves!

Believable3 Unbelievable5

30 Jun 2017 18:36:14
Can't see it even if he leaves the hammers I'm sure a prem side will go in for him.

Agree2 Disagree2

30 Jun 2017 14:08:45
Howson wanted by a snake

Believable2 Unbelievable1

30 Jun 2017 14:51:03
Swadlad will be pleased! I'm undecided on Howson coming back, but then I look at the times we have had success we have always had a midfield general like, Batty, Speedo, Vinny, Mac, and a few others so he does fit into that category but how long can he realistically go on for in that position as it is a demanding slot, it's a difficult one for me. Also we are flooded in that position and I would put that sort of money towards a partner for Wood. Radz seems to be holding all the cards really close to his chest and even the YEP is repeating itself on rumours so who knows! What do you think George?

Agree2 Disagree0

30 Jun 2017 14:56:40
We need a batty vinny type and a mcallister. Howson neither. Vierra. Phillips. New guy. Plus benchers like hern. Maybe dallas. Douk all acceptable. don't need hoeson.

Agree2 Disagree2

30 Jun 2017 16:00:52
I can guarantee howson will choose boro over Leeds anyway, he left for a reason n that was to move to a team in a better position so boro will be his choice

Agree1 Disagree6

30 Jun 2017 16:14:51
MW67 I think chasing Howson makes sense because you can buy all the good players from abroad but what's missing is knowing what it means to play for Leeds in front of Leeds fans. Otherwise known as the fire in the belly factor. Howson as ex-Leeds born bred in Morley could provide that and help all the new recruits in this respect. So it's a pretty good strategy by AR. It should come as no surprise therefore that the snake wants to prevent that. That said paying 5m is too much. I wouldn't want to pay much more than 3.5m for Howson.

Agree4 Disagree0

30 Jun 2017 16:42:15
I can see where your coming from and if we can get him at the reduced then it's a no brainer for me cause as you say he knows what that shirt means.

Agree2 Disagree2

30 Jun 2017 16:49:18
Howson never played like he had a fire in his belly. He went missing for huge chunks of games. Popped up with some goals and assists but was completely anonymous for 70 minutes a game. I swear, some of you either have a dismally short memory or just don't understand the game you're watching.

Agree3 Disagree1

30 Jun 2017 18:07:30
I think we all know the game we are watching CityWhite it's just some people see players different ways, personally I think no because he's not better than what we have and I'd rather money like that was paid for a partner for Wood, but I also understand what some other people are saying, it's like the rumour on newsnow. co. uk about Snodgrass coming back, I really don't know and they do say never go back don't they! I think best waiting before judging and criticising but for me I'd rather have new additions instead of old.

Agree0 Disagree0

30 Jun 2017 18:43:33
The only thing we can say regarding Howson is that he knows this league, it looks that is if the transfer goes thru that we are signing attacking /creative midfielders which we do need and if what I read about are new coach is correct he likes to attack other sides . I for one became really frustrated with the way we were passing the ball about to are defence and gk, Bridcutt who was excellent when on loan looked out of sorts towards the end of are season . The question is was he instructed to play that way, and was this the cause of the alleged row between pilot and monk . Every one starts with a clean slate for me and I'm sure we will debate this as are season unfolds .

Agree2 Disagree0

30 Jun 2017 19:06:18
I'd have snodgrass back in a heartbeat! Howson i'm on the fence but it's all a positive sign of the new era! It's actually pretty lush to be associated with quality rumours as a leeds fan! Let's all be a bit cheerier!

Agree2 Disagree1

30 Jun 2017 20:29:27
City. JH did go missing sometimes but we learned he did much better in a 5 man midfield. Doesn't mean he don't know what it means to play with desire. I recall several moments of class and desire from him. He's also a better player with some PL experience now. I'd buy but not for more than 3.75m.
