kb to make nw sell mccormack and becchio in dying minutes leaving leeds to rot . Bates out

Believable8 Unbelievable28

Im ashamed of some of the Leeds fans on this site. Money money money. No wonder Bates doesnt waste his money on you. Hes done more for Leeds and has more integrity than all the whingers on here.

Fawksey (LoveLeedsHateLust)

Agree1 Disagree3

Totally agree Fawksey. People talk as though Bates hasn't ever given managers cash for the team. He gave Blackwell a rubbish load of money when he wasn't really in a position do so. To be fair, he gave Grayson plenty - he just spent like a tosser. The McShefferry & Doyle loans from Coventry cost us almost £2m after we got promotion. Grayson made bad choices at the end of the day. The likes of O'Brien, Varynen, Forsell, and many more would have all been on top money and wouldn't have come cheap. Grayson went for quantity rather than quality. He managed his budget badly. He brought in a lot of players os the same level of ability instead of bringing in 1 or 2 of top quality and backing the squad up with good youngsters at the club. Grayson got it totally wrong. You can't blame Bates for how Grayson spent the money. Bates let's his managers manage the club. He gives them a budget and it's up to them how to spend it. Grayson made awful decisions in the transfer market. FACT.

Agree2 Disagree1

You are a complete person an this isn't Ken Bates

Agree0 Disagree0

F**k off bates becchio and mccormack never gona leave now p*ss off and leave lufc alone

well according to ssn , templeton at ibrox as we speak , what a joke , when we are a poorer draw than a third division scottish club

Believable19 Unbelievable5

Why is everyone so negative there is a free poster in tomorrows programme. That will surely keep everyone happy? What a joke our club has become

leeds rarely sign people on an actual
contract we just get them on loan so when september comes will get some loans in!

Believable15 Unbelievable4

GREAT!! lets hope its not Bannan, Livermore, Smith, Keogh or Watt!

Agree0 Disagree0

I thought Keogh was brilliant, and would gladly have him back. The others were terrible though.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2012 21:34:04
Billy Sharp to Forest!! kill me now! there is more quality in this division this year than before and as usual we go backwards, we will be lucky to stay up!

Believable20 Unbelievable12

Don't think we will be lucky to stay up . i still think we will be in the top 6 come jan transfer window ,if we dont spend then we will be lucky to end up in top half

Agree1 Disagree1

Talk about been negative!! We have a good team have fantastic fans and a great manager whoever we play well be hard to beat

Agree1 Disagree0

Been a Leeds fan for 40 years, and today was an oppertunity for them to strengthen the squad. But the lure the club used to have is gone, and NW has a mighty job to get us up. So then the question begs, what of next year if Bates is still around? Fan base starting to argue with eachother, reputation of having no money, wow, what happened?
But this squad is different, built from the back 4 up, and the days of Leed letting 4 or more goals in are gone! I say we finish 5th or 6th.

Agree1 Disagree1

Haha Leeds signed there main transfer target andy Gray lol what happened to it def being sharpe or Maynard? I've said all along Leeds have signed some good players but not enough to challenge for a top 6place mid table at best

Agree0 Disagree0

More quality.... Sharpe was here last term u know!

Agree0 Disagree0

Not more uality, just certain teams buying best players from other clubs.

Agree0 Disagree0

You plank. We have a decent squad and a top manager. If you think we will be fighting relegation then you are a bigger tit than your mum thinks you are. It's past your bedtime, night night
Rob MOT

Agree1 Disagree0

I would take mid table now. Lets face it there will be no takeover.

Agree1 Disagree0

Just face it Leeds are no longer a big team there a mid table championship team and that's why players rather go to other teams in the league teams with real chances of going up

Agree0 Disagree0

We have strengthened the team loads this summer. It's only because we haven't had all the media hype that you people crave so much. Relax and support the team, and when we go up without pissing all the cash down the drain like Leicester or Forest we'll be laughing.

Agree0 Disagree1

31 Aug 2012 21:19:43
Boothroyd to wednesday on loan? Where were we with a bid. Ideal loan signing. We cant be that skint? Come on bates surely you must see a stronger squad gives u a better price for sale. Nb88

Believable12 Unbelievable7

We didn't bid, we were never going to bid, not for him, not for ANYONE TODAY, PERIOD. NW said there would be no one coming in and he wasn't lying. The cash box is empty, no money for transfers, no money for loans, not even a few quid to keep diouf, one out/one in if we are lucky.

Season ticket money covers debt, gate receipts covers the rest (maybe?)

Time to realise bates doesn't care, so long as the club stays out of administration he cant fail to make a profit and thats what it means to him, profit, pure and simple.

If NW could freely say what promises he was made and have been broken I am sure we would know the truth but it would cost him his job and I am sure he has more pride than to vent his spleen, it will all come out eventually once KB has knobbed off.

Long hard season ahead but its been that way for the last 10 years

Agree2 Disagree0

We have no money, why is that so hard to understand

Bye bye diouf of to Saudi Arabia
Why did ken bates be so tight on takeover so many people we could of signed

Believable15 Unbelievable9

Ooh look! Forest sign Sharp on loan, lets just pull the trigger now!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Diouf on his own would not bridge the gap anyway, on strength of squad we are further behind than ever. Sharp to Forest, Boothroyd to Sheff Wed, no fkucer to Leeds, Pathetic!!

Agree2 Disagree0

Why not listen to what NW has said and support your club instead of slagging it off

RUN OUT OF STEAM: Boothroyd to Weds, Maynard to Cardiff. No sign of final quality that NW assured would end up in place for season. I think KB games have shafted NW attempts at putting final touches together. He's been let down at a time when he's most needed support and strong negotiations backed with a little finance. If I were from Bahrain I would pull the plug and let the bugger suffer whilst tactfully and discreetly releasing info about KB contract negotiations to the masses. Oh well.... the real support starts Saturday MoT

Believable14 Unbelievable2

I agree totally with this post. However I will not put a penny in KBs retirement fund anymore. I will always support the mighty whites but while KB is in charge I cannot bring myself to attend anymore. I may get slagged off for this but I was a regular attender when we were in League one, I have been to all the play offs and attended when regularly except when on tour but enough is enough KB f off and stop ruining our club

Agree2 Disagree1

I'm with you mate

Agree0 Disagree1

Looks like the boycott bates bandwagon is beginning to roll! About time too, bates is a out and out liar, impossible to do business with a man like that. I suspect the consortium( if they exist) are finding this out all too well. The ONLY way to force bates out IS TO BOYCOTT ER. Its all he understands, LLHB

Agree1 Disagree1

I think that after the Blackburn game the attendances are going to drop off big time if he hasnt gone. However if we should win I think theres a chance that fans will keep it rolling until theres a down turn in results. Cant and wont blame NW.

Agree0 Disagree0

"The ONLY way to force bates out IS TO BOYCOTT ER". That's a great idea. Then we can see the club go into administration, have a 10 point deduction and possibly get relegated to League 1. You absolute muppet.

Agree0 Disagree1

31 Aug 2012 20:00:04
Bothroyd gone to Sheff Weds on loan.
Disgraceful that NW has not been allowed the opportunity to loan a player like him.
He's gone to the owls so he would surely of come here.

Believable12 Unbelievable1

Think he would have jumped at the chance to play with Dave Jones again, even if we did make an offer.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2012 19:00:41
Yet another rumoured target Jay Bothroyd going on loan to Sheffield Wednesday of all places. I know the squad is thin on the ground but i think we only need 2 decent loan signings, a fast + tricky winger maybe jesse lingard from the possibly? And another decent defender which i thought martin cranie could have been as back up.

Believable3 Unbelievable2

NW has already said he is looking at a couple of loan signings when the market opens in a week

Winger and a defender?so who you gonna play up front if any thing happens tp RM or LB?the squad is paper thin all over,one more injury in midfield now and we will be in serious trouble

come leeds please warnock work your magic an try bring in some free agents as we have a very small squad and need 2 more faces at least pal super leeds come on!! lufc all the way 3 pts against blackburn will make my day!!!

Has anyone else heard the Becchio to Leicester rumour tonight? I live in Leicester so unfortunately most of my friends are Foxes fans, one has just text me saying that Luciano is having a medical at Leicester and is assuming that Beckford would come to us.
I hope this isn't true, I'd rather have them both! But if I have to choose, Becchio all the way! Hard worker, loyal and plays well with Macca.

Believable4 Unbelievable23

Hi guys, I'm the original poster and this 'rumour' if it even qualifies as one was all lies (considering it didn't happen!) but my Leicester fan friend text me again saying it was a complete fabrication. Admittedly it scared the hell out of me when I first read it!
So I'm clicking 'unbelievable' on my own post! - JamesC

ER striker/quality crisis deepens.

Believable25 Unbelievable26

Diouf will go to who offers the most. he is that type, and probably has a greedy agent.

Agree0 Disagree2

Hope this is not true. But then would be kb icing on the cake wouldn't it and just about finish us off. Feel depressed as it is watching deadline day with Leeds not even getting a mention and knowing we are not getting anybody is s##t

Agree0 Disagree0

He was training at Leeds today apparently according to Yorks Radio

Agree0 Disagree0

Does it really matter if he goes? our season is already over and Diouf staying aint gona change that. The running of this club is farcical!

Agree1 Disagree0

What is happening to this great club

Agree0 Disagree0

El Hadj in Saudi....head on a plate within days....although spitting is a past time out there...

Agree0 Disagree0

He has been one of the better players for us this year would be disapointed if he left. wether ya hate him he has got a good footballing head and would rather have him on our team than playing against us

Agree1 Disagree0

Good, sick and tired of this saga. Just a greedy loser and best to get shot.

Agree0 Disagree1

Diouf has been class for us so far! he makes a massive difference when he plays so shut the F**K up and get behind the team!

Agree3 Disagree0

If diouf is that greedy then why the **** did he agree to play for donny for 2k a week blame bates if dioufy leaves

Hi, goodness, for a moment there I thought I was on the Leeds site. Oh, it appears I am.
Sorry whoever you are, Grayson is nothing to do with Leeds, I have no interest in what the manager of a rival team is doing.

Agree0 Disagree0

Why on earth would ANYONE care? Put it on the udders page.

Agree0 Disagree0

I think he was just trying to remind Leeds fans of what they can't buy till at least January!

Agree0 Disagree0

I swear grayson has no imagination, raiding his old clubs and stealing warnocks transfer targets im glad he got sacked.

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree with all the above comments. However, would be nice if we had the funds to bring in those players. Bates need to f**k off now.

Cheer Up .......MR DOOM & GLOOM. You have got it all wrong Pxxx !!!!!
SUPER LEEDS . The 9no SHIRT..????

Agree0 Disagree0

Warnock just said on yorkshire radio no signings today. AHD not yet signed due to poor wages offered. No offers for our 3 transfer listed players. Loan only once we ser who is available. Keeps refering to the chairman. I get the impression Bates not leaving any time soon. Its a bit doom and gloom. I feel.we are better than last season. Warnock will have to play the youngsters no other choice. At least the want to play for leeds.
Max 2 loan signings one of which will be a striker. Its a big ask but if Somma gets fit he could have a massive effect on the squad. Impact player 70- 75 mins on hope to see that.

Agree1 Disagree0

Warnock said he wants more players

Agree0 Disagree0

I'm hardly doom & gloom, it was a joke, hence the repeated !! if it was doom and gloom i would have been moaning and calling bates every name possible, but it was light-hearted fun.

twitter rumours suggesting 2 players having medicals at Thorpe arch,could it be Taylor and Boyd from Peterborough? They failed to agree terms with Ipswich and both have stated their desire to leave,Ipswich had an offer of 1.5m accepted for both combined so if we had made a similar offer with money from smodgrass then surely this is a possibilty

Believable8 Unbelievable28

Taylor has signed a 3 yr deal with Ipswich.

Agree0 Disagree0

Apart from Taylor has signed for Ipswich

Agree0 Disagree0

I very much doubt it's Taylor seeing as he's actually signed for Ipswich!
I really hope we can bring in a couple of new faces but it's not looking likely at the moment :-( If Beckford is available on loan like Shy Sports reported this morning then we should definitely hijack his move to Huddersfield (if we can agree the percentage of his wages we would pay).
Unlikely, but never say never when it comes to LUFC!
Bates out! In Warnock we trust! Marching on Together! (And anything else people want to add!) - JamesC

Very good player would be a good addition to the squad and can play on the wing or in the centre

We wont be signing him

Why they've released him I don't have a clue. Every game I saw him play in he was class, proper grafter, championship club get him then brilliant signing

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2012 11:11:51
No players to be signed today unless we can find a few bob for diouf, more worrying for me is if there is no money to pay loanees wages either then despite the great start the lads have made the squad is too thin to cope with injuries and suspensions. The T/O will drag on for as long as we remain in the mix for promotion so providing potential buyers remain interested dont expect this to happen until there is no chance of auto or play offs.
No sources just my opinion

a scarborough white

Believable15 Unbelievable5

If you watch the NW interview he clearly states where we stand with new players. We wont sign anyone as we have no funds. Diouf has been offered a 5k contract, but has better offers abroad. From reports he wants 2yrs which is understandable at his age, I say just give it him we need need the options wide and forward. NW also wants to bring in another forward this will either be on loan of free agent but will wait to see who is availble once PL teams have named thier squads. If we can off load the listed players will free up as much funds as we can to get the best striker available. If the takeover happends its a bonus but we just need to get behind the team. I'm makeing the trip up north to cheer on the lads this weekend its gonna be tough but lets hope we can put in a good shift and grind out the 3 points! MOT
KarlT

Agree0 Disagree0

I am not sure of the exact figure but promotion to the premier league and all the extra revenue must run into a tidy old sum. Surely the prospective investors/owners must see that the players that could help us achieve promotion are being snapped up by our rivals. Wouldn't italy business ssense to pay bates off even if it's a bit over the top of his valuation and not miss this opportunity, speculate to accumulate. There is another west yorks club nearby with a very wealthy owner and an 8 mil cash injection, enjoy knows what they could achieve with the momentum of their promotion just look at Norwich and Southampton. We need to act now this league will only get tougher to get out of with parachute payments and FFP rules. Investors your time is Now - don't miss the boat or we could be left in this league for a long time

Agree0 Disagree0

Grow up mateeeee do you think they would just stick around for a whole season then do one when we DO nothingg. waste a year of there lifes. it will happen sooner or laterr bates is 80 for christ sakess be positiveeee you moron

Agree0 Disagree0

I think yesterdays deadline deals tells the whole story. Rivals have got every player we have been linked with throughout the summer, had the investment takeover gone through do you think this would have happened.

So leeds have turn down j b agan . So now he off 2 hudderfield on loan till x mas

Believable22 Unbelievable3

If till xmas then to us in Jan window MOT!

Agree0 Disagree0

Where would we find his £25 k wages ? We have no money.

Agree0 Disagree0

We HAVEN'T turned him down? We never actually wanted him in the first place, although obviously YOU did?

Agree0 Disagree0

Not now but we will have by then have faith

Agree0 Disagree0

If Beckford truly wants to return to The Mighty Whites at some point, I don't think he would go to Huddersfield, he knows the rivalry between the two clubs.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hello what rivalry have we got with under? They hate us we dont give them a second thought. there just a club in dewsbury imo.
COME ON LEEDS LETS GET BEHIND LADS THEN SIT IN PROTEST AFTER GAME

Agree0 Disagree0

Who says he could make it again at Elland Rd , seeing as he hasn't exactly set Leicester alight. I watched him be a lazy fecker game in , game out and Leeds fans calling for his head - suddenly he's this great saviour we need . Get a grip , we wanted him to stay he wanted the wages & left, END OF !

Agree0 Disagree0

Why do we want him back he has done nothing since leaving and becchio and mccormack have become better strikers since he left and have a great partnership. If he comes back I would expect him to be on the bench and his doing just that at the foxes

Agree0 Disagree0

We never wanted beckford so obviously u know nothing about our transfers. hes greedy n he showed at the foxes he is a league 1 player at best now will ppl just get a grip n stop living in the past, mccormack, somma, becchio are all far better than beckford will ever be

Agree0 Disagree0

Remember him ducking out ot a few challwnges and been booed off.
Thinks he's Je-main-man.
I'd rather have a team.

Agree0 Disagree0

Shame on you leeds fans on here for slating a past player, with regards to ppl saying hes done nothing since leaving clearly you didint see him playing in the prem lol regardless of the transfer situation its shocking to read some of the comments tut tut

Agree0 Disagree0

Huddersfield to loan Beckford and sign Hamill according SSN. I know they got £8mill for Rhodes, but it just shows what happens when you have a Chairman who actuall invests in the squad rather than a silly old person who's lost the plot.

Believable26 Unbelievable3

Might finally get to see how good grayson really is and how much of a tw*t bates was for letting him go

Agree1 Disagree0

If you think Bates is a silly old person who's lost the plot then you are very wrong.......

.... or do you have more money than he does? Or are you milking Leeds dry, and we're all thinking it's Batesy?

Beckford to Huddersfield today, yet again we are shown up by other clubs and their transfers.........

Believable14 Unbelievable6

They have just got 8 mill from rhodes so not suprising

Agree0 Disagree0

How is being shown up by a team who have just received £8m. Id love to see beckford at Leeds but if we can only pay a small part of his wages n hudds. An pay a huge part with their ££ is it any wonder where hell go?

when you say 'again' - last time I checked hudds were after peltier and rosco and where are they playing their football now?

He's on an apparent £25-35k a week!

Scot MOT!

Agree0 Disagree0

Grayson must b having a ball with that cash!

Agree0 Disagree0

Town pulled out of gettin pelts bk wev got better right back and would only be a squad player warming bench. leicestwer asking too much money

Leeds to sign 3 players tomorrow in a frantic day at Elland Road.
2 are free agents and a deal is close already for them. Those 2 are Buazacky and Reo-Coker.
The third player is Matt Ritchie a deal is close to sign the winger.

These deals will be funded by Danny Pugh, Rachubka and Nunez all leaving the club to free up wages for these signings.

Believable6 Unbelievable32

Just cant see it happening, both Nunez and Rubber Gloves refusing to go quietly, particular Rubber Gloves, Nunez hopefully will sign for Bradford City today and to be fair no one wants Rubber Gloves, Danny Pugh expected to join Doncaster on Loan.

NW will wait and use money to loan a couple of Prem Players after they have done their 25 man squads today.

Agree0 Disagree0

You've not read the bit about no signings then.

Agree0 Disagree0

That is a dream deadline day for me!

Dreams can come true....nah not in this case

Agree0 Disagree0

Would be quality signings!
