Leeds & QPR interested in signing 32 year old midfielder Richie Wellens from Doncaster.

Sounds about right for us fresh face on the bench for brown & tongue to talk to

He is 33

Whats age got to do with anything how old was strachan when we signed him, wellens is exactly what we need in are midfield

Mr Wellens, stop posting stuff on here! It's not a recruitment site.

Wellens is so not what we need.hes terrible

He's just signed a new 18 month contract today so that ends that rumour

stevie may who plays for st johnstone is in talks with leeds about a move 500k possibly riseing to 1million with add ons

Done well this season, scoring a lot of goals. I know SPL ain't too great, but it's about the same level as the Champ.

No way is premier league as good as championship most teams as good as bottom half of div 3 or div 1 depending how old you are

however May did do well at loan spells at both Alloa and Hamilton and he is one the stars of this seasons premier league I would have put his value at 250 with add ons

The Championship ain't that great either.

Absolutely shocking player! Needs a haircut probably Sunday league level down here.

May is a decent player i'd be really happy signing him

We could send him to Brian McDs barber

This is totally made up rumour and has no foundation. May is NOT coming to Leeds and is NOT even near moving from St Johnstone.

Don't really know anything about this guy, but sounds like he has a pretty good goal scoring record and some one who knows were the net is maybe worth a punt (Remember Beckford came from Wealdstone)

Eurgh! May I'd NOT good enough. Nothing Smith doesn't offer us.

Signed this stevie may lad on football manager I know you will say its a game but they actally use thousands of real scouts to do the scout reporting in that game and everton actally was involved with them whilst david moyes was there so everton could get football managers scouting network anyways back to topic on football manager I happend to of signed stevie may for leeds united and he did fantasticly well in the championship scored lots of goals more than mcormack for me plus his young about 21 and also did very well in the preimership but equally could be a flop

Seems that this one does have a bit of truth about it, but don't expect he'll cost anything less than £1.2m.(QPR have already been told that a £1m bid isn't enough) Peterborough really made a mess of things early on in the season when they thought they could grab him for buttons and pay it over 25 years. £400,000 was the allegedly agreed fee but that was knocked back instantly, regardless of what their chairman claimed. In that short time, May has improved at an amazing rate. Two things stand out about this young man. First, His goal to knock Rosenborg out of Europe and second, the fact that the only thing his doubters have against him is his haircut! Have a look on youtube and you'll see what I, m on about.

Hearing Norwich City are set to me a cheeky bid for Rosco in the region of 4.5 million with becchio coming back to Elland Road

Is that all you can come up with? Leeds striker to Norwich just because all the others went there and Becchio to return, along with Beckford Gradel Howson Smith Kewell etc I suppose. How about some actual rumours and not made up stuff

They can swiftly do one!

4.5 Million might just be too much to turn down if true, however I'd only want Becchio back if we used the money to buy two pacey wingers. Becchio is a goal poacher, but there are questions marks about his speed and touch

Snatch their hands off!not a great
lover of becchio but i think he will be out to impress.as i have said before, mccormack is not as good as he thinks he is.

4.5 for a striker not premier league or internationally proven


DEAL

I'm all for it sell the lot and let's start again, would'nt keep any of them, Paddy is o.k but the rest are an EMBARRASSMENT.it's LEEDS UNITED for F. s sake, how did these players, no sorry PEOPLE ever get the white shirt?????? its beyond me? what are Norman Hunter, Eddie Gray, & Peter Lorimer (ex payers who still have a connection with the once Mighty Leeds) thinking when they see this rubbish on a Saturday, poor Don & Billy must be turning in their graves. it's disgraceful.

Gradel is in talks with a yorshire club, but its not leeds, its Hull

That would be a Humberside club then!

06 Jan 2014 17:18:55
Good luck to him if that's the case. He would be a lot more expensive 2nd time around and it rarely works out twice.

Hull is in Yorkshire

Fawksey

East Riding of Yorkshire

leeds Huddersfield Sheffield Wednesday have all won something have hull ever won a trophy?

06 Jan 2014 13:18:13
Mackay_stevens is not coming to leeds it was a rumour started by expert tipping in the summer on twitter!

Why target unrealistic signings like Gradel or Ince and not go for this guy?

Cardiff to allow Nicky Maynard out on loan. Could he do a job for us?

Yes he could. he is a top championship player anyway, nowhere near a premiership star. my only doubt is he hasn't really cut it at west Ham and Cardiff in Championship either so I would go for someone better.

I agree in that I've seen him play and he is a good player along the lines of a Wallcott. Sad that he hasn't been provided with to many pportunities in recent 2 years and made his mark. He needs a loan to prove his ability not only to the likes of the loan club but also his host club. Most managers want a big target man with strength and Maynard doesn't have that but he can be quick on the ball and has good shot power

I can't believe a quality striker like him is sitting on a bench or in reserves for so long as he has, would love him at Leeds and Becchio back, bit worried he seems happy with his situation though, shows no ambition or fight, but him ross and becchio what an attacking three that would be.
