Use our rumours form to send us leeds transfer rumours.

14 Jan 2012 22:37:32
Evening lads, Im a celtic fan and I was wondering what yous thought of Darren Odea? Always showed signs of becoming a gd player but was always liable to make a stupid mistake. I see hes came out and said he would like to stay with leeds, would yous take him?

Sk

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Your right about the mistakes,we don't call him oh dear for the fun of it

Agree4 Disagree1

As you might say, hes Pish! please take him back asap, hes a bloody liability.

Agree4 Disagree1

Any chance you could send us Forrest? ;)

Agree4 Disagree0

So I see hes the same then lol, when he first came in for celtic he was immense against AC Milan but after a few months he started fading tbh. Well if yous take him I wish him all the best. I've got a liking for leeds (think it stems from Champ manager 2001/2002 lol)

As for giving you forrest, no chance :) lad has the potential to be great. Needs to get a move to the prem with a team that will play him to realise his potential though

Sk

Agree0 Disagree0

Dont want anyone from celtic crap irish team in a crap scottish league.

Agree1 Disagree0

"carp irish team", i think you're one of the "morons" Mr Bates was referring to.

Agree1 Disagree2

From what im reading he put 'crap'

Agree1 Disagree0

If not an irish team whats with all the tri colours ?

Agree1 Disagree0

I think Leeds should go in for billy sharp, proven goalscorer and has turned down Leicester which shows its not money he's focused on. If Bates would just give Grayson some money. Becchio and Forsell look out of fitness and I think our style of play has moved on from Becchio's style of play. I've heard a lot of rumours about Delph coming back as well. Would love Lichaj to come back on loan but there's been a lot of rumours about smith from spurs coming on loan who did very well at Bournemouth last year. Although I have been extremely impressed by Thompson at right back. We cannot let Snoddy go this January, we are very average without him. We need to get a centre back to cover Lees and O'Dea.

Would love this to be our team in the next couple of weeks.

LONERGAN
LICHAJ/SMITH LEES O'DEA WHITE
CLAYTON DELPH
SNODDY TOWNSEND/RODGERS
SHARP MCCORMACK

Oh and it will be an absolute travesty if Grayson is sacked, he cant make the right decision 100% of the time but he has worked miracles at Leeds and we are 1 point off the playoffs and 9 points off top, if he got half the input of cash that Boro, Leicester, West Ham Southampton, Ipswich, Brighton, (I could go on), we would be right up at the top. withhiscash restrictions not all signings are going to be a success. Anyone who isnt 100% behind Grayson is an absolute person and he is definitely the person to take us forward.

There was an article on talksh1te the other day saying that statistics prove that on average,changing the manager in Jan IS the best time. Teams who have, gained 4 more points on average than before xmas.
secondly, if it is true that Leeds will have to pay this 30p in the pound extra if we go up this season,then I could just about stomach mid table ,but next year we have to invest heavily to assure an assault on the top two places. 12 odd million could buy us a couple of prem players, or 3!
I think it's clear that this season is pretty much over for us, yeh yeh one point of the play offs, but lets see, another two weeks and were drifting away.
I don't know the answers, but it aint pretty and it aint getting any better.

A lot of you guys are not real leeds fans. It's time to get off graysons back . Do we want to be like all the other mediocre clubs in football chopping and changing hoping for the holy grail of all managers. Wake up and smell the roses . Patience and stability with one management team. Look at the clubs who retain management long term. Arsenal and man u. Do we want to aspire to be like these clubs or just stay on the merry go round. Support leeds united and the manager every week and keep the faith .

Believable5 Unbelievable5

Just because people dont like grayson and they have a different opinion, doesnt mean they arent true leeds fans. If people are taking time to post on here about their team, whether we agree or not, then they are still leeds fans. I agree with uou about grayson but others dont, but they are still leeds fans. Why dont we all stop arguing with eachother and support leeds united.

Agree4 Disagree4

Opinions are all well and good , but so many of you constantly knock Grayson. What is he supposed to do with no money. Let's all not argue I agree but for gods sake back the man who is doing a great job. Could be worse we could be leicester . !!

Agree3 Disagree1

14 Jan 2012 19:29:51
Grayson haters and anti-grayson transfer policy haters answer me this one, would u rather us sign some attackers and midfielders to try help us out with a 'score more than you' ideology, or sign some 2nd rate premier league reject on loan like Andy O'Briandead who couldnt tackle a granny on giro day?

id love us to sign some defenders in an ideal situation, but if teams are demanding big money which we cant afford? how can we be able to bring these defenders in? theyre harder to come by in comparison to midfielders and strikers

Believable3 Unbelievable3

Looking forward to a midfield of clayton, snoddy,howson,townsend and Thompson. With white and that villa lad at full backs will be exciting.

Agree1 Disagree4

14 Jan 2012 19:27:13
All you so called Leeds fans saying Grayson has to go you all don't no what your taking about I think you have forgotten were we was when he took over. He been at the club 3 years and has not had money to spend but we always seem to be around the play offs

Believable5 Unbelievable3

14 Jan 2012 19:12:47
If Bates wants us to get promoted he will get rid of Grayson and get a new man in ASAP
I like Grayson,but he has taken us far enough

It cringes me to say,but Warnock is the man to get us promoted

Believable3 Unbelievable4

Love him or hate him,Wanock knows how to build a team and how to get promoted,wether he and Bates could work together is another matter,he got QPR up on little money,now theyve got money they sack him,would prefer him to Hughes any day,he wont be unemployed long,think hed jump at the chance to manage Leeds,wouldny suprise me if hes installed next week.

Agree3 Disagree3

Will be di matteo if SG goes

Agree2 Disagree2

14 Jan 2012 19:04:47
Right, all of you stop moaning now. Grayson is a brilliant manager and you should be proud that we have him. We dont have the funds to go into the premier league. Think about the amount of people we would have to buy to actually make us premier league quality, and on top of that we would get relegated straight away if we didnt buy anyone so that will cost us a bomb. Id be happy to stay in the championship for another couple of seasons MOT

Believable2 Unbelievable5

What a load of rubbish,I for one want promotion and if that's not possible I want to watch a team that will at least have a go to try and achieve that goal,at present we are poor to say the least, you can't just pick a season to get promoted it has to be done as soon as possible, if you think the fans are going to hang about watching this garbage for the next 3 seasons with Grayson in charge your deluded.

Agree4 Disagree1

Whats Bates going to say now?,hes publicly stated 7th place isnt good enough,how does he feel about 11th?,misfiring forwards,poor defence,think SGs just about run out of time.

Agree4 Disagree3

Obviously i want to be promoted but we cannot financially handle it

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2012 18:53:55
I am not a grayson out person because I think up till now his record is 2nd to none but,Mr bates now has a big decision to make does he back him or does he sack him,if he backs him he needs to do it with cold hard cash because,we need to halt this alarming slide down the table,from been 3rd at one point just before christmas to 11th the 2nd week into january.Mr bates needs to sack him if he thinks he can't trust him with his money because people say,its ok were only 11pts off 2nd, let's be realistic our form at the moment we need to be looking at the teams below because,as quickly as we can move up the table we can just as quickly slide alarmingly down the table.Back him or sack him whichever you do needs to be done before the transfer window closes, and another manager inherits players he doesn't want and has to get rid before he can bring his own in not ideal.

Believable7 Unbelievable1

Good original post. Sensible & balanced. It's a big decision. I don't think SG will go yet but am certain his job is in danger.

Agree3 Disagree0

Great post but dont agree his record 2nd to none ?think sgt wilko would have something to say to that,but other than that great post.

Agree2 Disagree2

Leeds have a bad slide every season, it usually is nearer the end of the season which is what puts them down the table, I evidence last year, and the the nailbiting promotion from the 1st division. If this is the string of bad results now, then there is every chance they will pick up

Agree1 Disagree1

14 Jan 2012 18:48:42
Not optimistic going forward with Grayson
Would all Leeds fans settle for mid table this season.?
I for one wouldn't be happy bearing in mind the money i pay for a season ticket and the lack of ambition in the transfer market.

Just scrolling down the pages it looks overwhelming in support of Grayson leaving the club

Believable5 Unbelievable2

14 Jan 2012 18:39:31
Big clear out needed easier said than done like we all no who needs to leave the club apart from lonergan clayton mccormack howson snodgrass white lees everyone else clearly arnt good enough and are just happy to pick up there wages and not put the effort in which isnt fair to the fans that pay a arm and a leg to go watch week in week out no wonder attendances are dropping at elland road

Believable5 Unbelievable1

What a load of rubbish! What about Thompson, Vayrynen, Pugh and all the youngsters still to get a chance? Gimpel, Poleon, the Taylors etc. Do you think we are Man City or Chelsea? We are a club surviving on a shoestring, that due to past financial profligacy, are lucky to still exist. Typical Leeds fans, fickle, impatient and unpredictable! Lets see you run a business on the sort of budget SG has to operate on and make a success of it. Do you want us promoted this season with a side that is palpably going to come straight back down and with hardly any money to spend again due to the repayments we owe creditors if promoted this term? Try looking at the longer view instead of reacting to every set back with the usual boring "SG and KB out" rants. Who the hell is going to be interested in managing or buying a club in the current state? Judge where we are in 3 years time. FGS it took Don Revie 6 years to win anything with the club.

Agree2 Disagree1

VAYRYNEN!,he is hopeless,you obviously didn't go to Barnsley away,he looked like he was running through treacle,and when he came off at Arsenal he looked like he had just run the london marathon in record time,he is clearly not fit nor is becchio connolly or brown which begs the question who the hell takes them training

Agree1 Disagree2

Precisely the point about Vayrynen! You can't slag him off until he gets a prolonged chance in the side and gets to full match fitness. He is miles better than Brown who is a never was and will never be. We are not exactly over blessed with defensive central midfielders are we?

Agree1 Disagree1

14 Jan 2012 18:33:39
Big changes needed pronto coaching staff have to go i mean snodin comes out after game cos sg bottled it and couldnt face the fact that today once again was not good enough we have been poor all season long ino and everyone knows it and you grayson so called lovers need to stop licking his arse and realise now is the time for a change otherwise we will be mid table at best

Believable4 Unbelievable1

14 Jan 2012 18:31:02
Signing Delph on loan wont, I dont think solve out problems. We concede at the back and our strike force is out to lunch.Bechio is totally off form and out of sorts. McCormack doesnt look like he is going to score - almost missed the chance
against Burnley but got a lucky second chance. Townsend is still learning his trade and having pugh and Brown on the pitch at the same time is just very ordinary ie no real creativity. We werer not much better when Howson was playing so I dont think his return will change that much. Interested to see what Grayson will do to change things round.

Believable4 Unbelievable3

14 Jan 2012 18:27:18
Why do people constantly rave about somma he is not even fit to lace half the squads boots and the talk about getting rid of sg is a joke limited funds great manager you lot would prefer someone else from chelsea to ruin our fanbase the same ad bates or maybe even oleary back to desicrate our club with debt the same ad last time. Or maybe get risdale back stop talking garbage and back the lads

Believable2 Unbelievable5

Your a joke and clearly have no knowledge of football. Somma is a quality striker and we have missed him this season. Becchio is not fit and looks disinterested. McCormack is out of confidence at being dropped all the time even when he was championship top scorer. Grayson is inept and could close a deal if his life depended on it. He has no stature and no drive. He has lost his way and the team has become complacent. Change would be a good thing and the reason no one is getting behind the team is because it's heartbreaking to turn up every week and watch Grayson ruin it. If were not careful we will lose snodgrass clayton lees White McCormack just like we've lost delph beckford gradel Johnson and kilkenny. Open your eyes ffs MOT

Agree2 Disagree3

But i do wish somma was back he will get some goal

Agree2 Disagree1

Grayson gives the names of the players he wants to Bates and Williams,they conduct contract negotiations,thats when our problems start,how many times have we heard sg say how frustrated he is by the end of the summer/january ?quickly followed by bates announcing how greedy the modern player/agent has become...we all know for a fact michael Brown wont have been sg number 1 midfield target,we end up getting what is left over when everyone else has finished,which basically is players of mb quality...none of the fans know what 'pot' of money he has,but one thing we all probably agree on is its not enough

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2012 18:27:06
i really think its time SG was sent packing i don't think the players want to play for him couldn't even beat palace with 10 ment in are not good 11th place is not could enough the players SG have brought are crap we can't always blame the chairman if i was KB i wouldn't trust SG with my money in the transfer market and yes i go every week and love the club

Believable3 Unbelievable4

You obviously didn't go today! They worked their socks off from beginning to end and are obviously playing for the manager.

Agree2 Disagree3

14 Jan 2012 18:26:15
11th!? We are utter s**te!

Believable5 Unbelievable4

Yes, one point off the play offs!

Agree2 Disagree3

Yes, but we are playing s**te.

Agree1 Disagree2

14 Jan 2012 18:18:30
So far in january we have signed an average player at best in pugh also a player we have already had before 4-5 years ago and to make it worse we had to pay money for him we have brought townsend in yet again another average player on loan who cant even cut it in the championship always cutting inside everytime he gets the ball he is another one that looks clueless a bit like the manager and his coaching staff

Believable5 Unbelievable3

That's because he is a left winger. If you went today you would of seen him go outside regularly when Snoddy came on and he switched to the left. He can definitely 'cut it' in the championship! We were unfortunate today, Becchio was awful but we have nobody to play as the target man instead of him, and Brown is to slow, both in speed and decision making. Again, who better to replace him in the middle? The squad is not strong enough to lose Snoddy/Howson, SG tried to bring in extra body's-but doesn't have the money to do it. Mangers spend as much as they are allowed. No money=no depth. Everyone who was moaning about Jonny would love to see him fit now!

Agree2 Disagree1

14 Jan 2012 17:54:48
Last two league games scraped a win and draw against 10 men, lost 3 before that, now 11th, season now on the brink of being over,I'm sure there are a few out there still backing Grayson but 4 points from 15 is just unacceptable, I think the Burnley result papered over the cracks he should have gone before that game.

Believable6 Unbelievable4

Great honest post well said ,his time is up.

Agree4 Disagree1

All you knockers end up doing is make things worse for the team and the atmosphere judge Grayson at the end of the season changing managers now would not improve anything this season.

Agree3 Disagree5

Who do y bring in? n do u honestly think if we change the manager they will av loads ov money to spend grayson is doing a good job with little money if clayton,lees n white hadnt ov stepped up this season we would ov been screwed coz bates wnt buy anyone

Agree2 Disagree2

I will back every manager that we appoint, thats what TRUE fans do, nobodys perfect

Agree3 Disagree1

14 Jan 2012 17:36:41
Personally before the game id have settled for a point. So some people need to support the team or do one. Two home games next both very winnable and a lot of transfer rumours flying about don't be so hard on grayson. Were still in the race. M.O.T

Believable5 Unbelievable5

That post has been written to many times this season,wake up we will not reach play offs mot

Agree4 Disagree1

And if we dont win the next two home games who you going to blame? all the person fans? or the person who picks the side and so called trains them all week?

Agree1 Disagree1

14 Jan 2012 17:31:46
Fact.we are not good enough.fact we have virtually no chance of going up.all teams above are winning hard games.we struggle against ten men.still we have next season to look forward to now.roll on august.shrew Leeds.
Oh to to those who say back the team I have with hard cash week in week out.wake up and smell the coffee Leeds faithful,we are just making the numbers up now

Believable3 Unbelievable3

Fact. We get Delph and Smith (Adam) to add to Rogers I expect us to grab 4th spot.

Agree3 Disagree3

Whats to look forward to next season...losing howson on a free? losing snodgrass? losing anyone else half decent? SG not being sacked? KB not dying of myocardial infarction?

Agree3 Disagree2

14 Jan 2012 17:21:21
take a point from home against a good Palace side even dwn to 10 men it drives a team to work harder, Grayson haters need to realise that we are not going to win EVERY game so lets rally behind the team, things WILL turn around, bit of faith wouldnt do any1 any harm, oh and before the whole 'under Grayson things wont' b/s, lets get behind him and the team, weve had a mixed season so far but we are still in this promotion race its a very tight league

Believable6 Unbelievable3

Realists will realise that we are not going to win many games unless something changes

Agree1 Disagree2

14 Jan 2012 17:21:10
Time for a change...........OF "FANS"!

So we're giving up on this season now are we?

GROW UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MOT!!

Believable5 Unbelievable5

If people aren't happy they have the right to voice there opinion this Leeds side is really poor it lacks real quality and leaders

The reaction is over the top, week on week. I say again - grow up!

14 Jan 2012 17:15:52
get off Graysons back who would come to this club with papa Smurf in charge and no money to spend. Get behind the team and Grayson COME ON LEEDS

Believable5 Unbelievable5

14 Jan 2012 17:01:41
Down to 11th thats not progress that's decline not good enough mot

Believable7 Unbelievable3

Agree we need to win these games but at least we got snoddy back today him and townsend on the wings howson back soon we should be looking good for the run in,think we might to find a midfield general and a decent goalscorer to play with either mccormack or becchio cause they cant play together.

Agree3 Disagree1

Week in week out I come away with the same feeling....not good enough! ! 10 man palace who were much better than us with 11 men, then we struggle to get a draw with 45 mins against 10. We were lucky against 10 men Burnley...we are a poor mid table championship team..end of!

Agree4 Disagree1

What worries me is that under Grayson, the second half of the season has always been relegation form,so what do we want stay loyal to him and finish in the bottom half of the table or even more unthinkable relegated!!!,or make the change now and give the next manager time in the transfer window?.WE MUST CHANGE THINGS NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!,sorry 4 larry but he has to go.

Agree3 Disagree2

Depends how you look at it, not so long ago we could not get out of league one until grayson came along.we are one point of the playoffs and delph's coming back, promotion all the way, stop moaning I was at arsenal on monday and at palace today and we look good. mot

Agree2 Disagree4

Relegated? have a word!

Agree2 Disagree0

Palace much better than us? You obviously didn't see the game I saw, but then that's no surprise as you weren't there!

Agree2 Disagree2

We will see but think we will go down hill fast now, hope not but Grayson's post xmas form has always been poor

Agree1 Disagree0

No you weren't there...Palace were outplaying us with 11 men Fact. They scored one and could of had a few more more. They then contained us with 10 men. Now where were u sitting?? I can count 3 times this season where we have played against 10 men and really been poor. I expected 2nd half the Leeds I know would have pounded them but they made one change with bringing Zaha on..and they looked comfortable, largely due to our strikers being soooo inept! Now i bet you say Becchio and McCormack looked good!!

Agree0 Disagree0

14 Jan 2012 16:57:07
Why the hell does grayson always say where going to sign players along with bates we had a clear week to sign players this week and last but then when it comes to it we sign players in positions we dont even need

Believable3 Unbelievable2

Because hes clueless,every man and his dog knows our defence has been lacking for yonks,even Graysons admitted it,so whats he do,gets a winger,just doesnt make sense.

Agree4 Disagree1

Because we obviously arent scoring enough goals so we need some creativity going forward aswell

Agree0 Disagree1

14 Jan 2012 16:50:34
Even against ten men we still dont look like winning forssell should of been on much earlier in the game becchio doesnt look half the player he was before his injury

Believable5 Unbelievable2

Was there today and Grayson ,never has a plan B sorry but this is getting worse and against 10 men !!

Agree5 Disagree1

14 Jan 2012 16:50:06
As it stands we are now 11th a mid table team.Birmingham now 6th after thrashing Millwall 0-5. Now that's what you call promotion form.

Believable6 Unbelievable1

Same old story,good start to season then drop off,thats one win in last six outings,three times more shots at goal than palace,against ten men all second half and still cant win,time for change.

Agree4 Disagree1

It was 6 0,millwall were down to 9 men though

Agree1 Disagree0

It was 0-5 when I posted, 0-6 at the end against 9 men, the point is they destroyed Millwall away at an intimidating ground against less men maybe, but how many men where we up against 2nd half., we play the brummies in a fortnight on our form I can feel another Blackpool result on the cards.

Agree0 Disagree0

They scored no goals against ten men..it was only when reduced to 9 that they scored

Agree1 Disagree0

14 Jan 2012 16:30:54
stop moaning bout grayson hes done a great job with no money FACT.if we won 4 or 5 in a row ud still find sumat to moan bout give it a rest n support th team

We have now slipped to mid table mediocrity, no form, and heading the wrong way in the table,not good enough FACT.

Agree3 Disagree1

So dont moan no matter what the score or were we are in the league,you are easily pleased

Agree3 Disagree1

The thing is under grayson we are more likely to loose 4 to 5 in a row no improvement time for a change.

Bye bye grayson as much as i like the guy he is just not good enough to manage lufc his team selections are abismel why the hell has he started with pugh left midfield when we all no that him and clayton played well against arsenal in the middle of park pugh is not a winger he looks lost as soon as he picks up the ball and to pick an overweight midfielder in brown who is well past his sell by date is just a joke to us as a club

Believable10 Unbelievable3

14 Jan 2012 15:36:14
Complete joke why havent we not signed a cb or a cm this week sg said they will be players in before weekend chatting s**t once again and before people say we got rogers lets look at the facts he is unproven in the championship an easy option with him been another free transfer plus we dont even need another winger what we need is a new back four not one of them deserve to be wearing the shirt

just seen some vids of robbie rodgers, looks very promising, im sure the work permit issue will be sorted as he is a first teamer for the yanks, comfortable on both pegs is def an added ability, everyone has 2 feet but usually the weaker one is just to walk on, a good shrewed signing, villa are allowing lihaj and delph out on loan, SG is alerted and im sure interested. loans or freebies are good business in the jan window, dont know why ppl bangin on about perms cos if you BUY in jan it costs about 2 1/2 times more in this window, loaning someone can do the job for the rest of the season. i still think we need a cb, apparantly st ledger is now not being allowed to leave......bollox. i think if we get st ledge,delph,lihaj,rogers(wp) he will have done what he should have done this time last year, very promising if all come through!!!

If Roy Rogers gets his work permit. Leeds are willing to give Trigger and Dolly Parton a trial.
Apparently Dolly Parton looks quite good up front and Triggers quite quick on the wing and he's no one trick pony.

I thought we were signing Buck Rogers?

Leeds are to sign Arthur Scargill. He's from Yorkshire and apparently he's a great striker.

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Only on loan if he can play on the wing,we are short on wingers overloaded on cbs!

According to lorimer we are on the verge of signing delph on loan from villa whats everyones thoughts if we do get him

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Great signing - Think Bates probably pushed him out of the door for the money, rather than him wanting to leave.

I hope this delph rumour has some legs. I think he is just the player we need. Loads of ability. Herd he's not in villa squad this weekend so could be true?

Believable2 Unbelievable0

100% true,he will be playing out in Leeds tonight

Lonergan
Lichaj (Lees/Bruce) O'Dea White
Andrews
Snodgrass Clayton Delph Townsend
McCormack

SUBS: Taylor, (Lees/Bruce), Rodgers, Pugh, Becchio

When fit, I'd definitely have Somma and Howson in there as well

Believable2 Unbelievable0

Lees has been one of our best players this season id definatly have him over bruce

Agree1 Disagree0

14 Jan 2012 08:59:07
Buck Rodgers, a fit Delph and Jones would be good business and a nice trio into the side for next game - Snoddy back soon and an outside cahnce of getting Andrews in also hopefully ?

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Buck rodgers on on wing darth vader on the other and chuck norris as target man up front!

Agree1 Disagree0

To be fair Chuck Norris would make a better defender.

Agree0 Disagree0

Obi-Wan Kenobi as goal keeper - can use mind control to keep a clean sheet

why on earth is simon taking in loan
players.use the money from the gradel,
schmicel sale to take in permament ones instead of loans.the funds are there but
simon does not want to use it.why? from
what i see simon tends to go back for
former leeds players. i'm sure there are
many players out there that can fill up
those vacant places in the team.the funds are there,use it.loan players are only for a temporary period of time.the players go
back to their parent clubs oncetheir loan
expires.it will disrupt the rhytm of the
team if loan players are used often. mot

I think loans are a great way of trying to get out off the division without getting stuck with players who can't cut it in the prem. Everyone loved Keough at first then complained he doesn't score. Loan worked out there. The fact is we needed maybe 4 players in this window, got Townsend, hope delph

Agree2 Disagree0

I agree with this response. Money is still a contentious issue at ER. The right loan signings could be the way forward (In the short term). Only thing is some of Grayson's loan signings haven't been the best. Delph, Andrews & Adam Smith if to be believed would be top loan deals.

Agree1 Disagree0

Maybe because bates isnt giving him the full whack of the transfer fees so he has to resort to loan players?
