Use our rumours form to send us leeds transfer rumours.

We are linked with nearly every player in the Championship and now the rumours start on the Manager. Where is Grayson going? I agree he needs to shore up the defence but to be fair to him he did a half decent job last year.

Im a haulage firm owner in mid-wales, which i have taken over from my ill father. I have been a Leeds fan since the age of 6 and still own my 1st kit from that age. I am now 37 and very affulent and an astute buisness man. Myself and four others are planning on taking on KB. Honest!!

And you choose to announce this on a rumour website? Why not the YEP or through the media?

Not a relation of Simon Morris are you? LOL

Simon Moris nearly got a job for one of his firms a few years back, it fell through thankfully. Nothing more than corrupt!

Been speaking to Paul Dews, he told me that Smith is definately signing for Leeds, he also told me that Larry wanted Bowyer in January but was unable to cut a deal, now he's a free agent expect him here soon, no bulls**t.

It's so boring being a Leeds fan. Grayson/Bates please sign some players or we are relegation fodder.

For all the leeds fans talking utter rubbish on this site...

1. Simon Grayson Isn't going to leave the club.
2. Whether its true or not, you wont find out if Alan Smith or any other player has signed due to their policies on bringing in players.
3. Ken Bates saved Leeds United - whether you like it or not, whether he spends money or not, whether he wipes his bum with his left or right hand, he is the owner. He gives you a seat to sit in every week and lets you support your team.
4. Leeds will get promoted again and will be in the premiership. Have we all not learnt a lesson that financial stability comes first in football.

Now before you type something again, make it useful

Wondering what people's views are on us not biting the £4mill hand off if Norwich for the sale of Snodgrass, anyone think this could possibly be a sign of us having a £4million kitty to play with and thus why we have held out for players? Possible truth in this but this is just one of many opinions Ive heard, any thoughts?

Believable0 Unbelievable7

By the way my post implies that we will retain Snodgrass as we already have £4million to spend? Either on wages or players? Its just an assumption not a rumour, just wondering what people's general ideas on the window so far, finance, players leaving rumours etc etc :)

Agree1 Disagree0

would much rather have bowyer than smith. genuine midfielder and still a proven premiership player whos not injury prone.

SG not interested in any former leeds player except from woodgate ans smith.

Do you think we will be good enough to WIN championship? How many players do we need?
Everyone knows we need a ball winner(david batty) hero.How many more players do you think we need?

Believable3 Unbelievable3

New full backs (both sides), a ball winner and someone who knows how to keep the ball in midfield. then we can realistically challenge for top 2.

Agree2 Disagree2

Good enough to win the Chamionship? Mmmmm, let me think.... Not a chance! Already we are missing the boat with some decent championship level players being snapped up by our competitors. Play offs are a possibility with investment but I think it looks like more like mid table safety with Snoddy and Gradell leaving in Jan window if suitable reinforcements are not brought in to challenge for top six by Christmas. Smith looks likely to sign which looks like a well educated gamble, if fit he will walk it at championship level but will we get 40 plus games from him next season, I'm not so sure? 15 plus goal forward needs to be brought in with a commanding centre half to partner Kisnorbo if we are to progress. A midfield of Howson, Snoddy, Gradel and Smith??? Should be more than good enough but with additions at the back and up front I don't think we will have enough depth to challenge at the top

Agree2 Disagree5

We need a GK to back up Kasper

RB, CB, LB, 2 CM'S

Leeds United have confirmed that rising talent Elliott Kebbie will not be staying with the club next season.

The youngster has spent eight years with the club's academy and was offered a place on their scholarship scheme.

Kebbie is now expected to join European champions Barcelona having relocated to Spain with his mother earlier this summer.

The 16-year-old has reportedly turned out for Barca's Juvenil B team while also spending time at the famous La Masia training site.

Kebbie had been interesting Sir Alex Ferguson having spent time on trial at Manchester United last year.

Leeds have confirmed they will be seeking compensation for Kebbie's development as and when he signs for a club in Spain.

"The club has retained its right to compensation should he choose to pursue a football career in Spain and sign for another club, " Leeds commented in their official website.

First of all the guy writing about grayson is talking garbage but what I will say that something doesn't seem right. Last year we had already signed kasper and paynter by this point, transfer targets are shortlisted throughout the season so it is strange we havnt signed anyone yet whatever the reason, derby county have signed 6 players already, I'm trying to stay positive as ther is still 8 weeks till season start but to say we need a LB, RB, CB, & 2xCM you would have thought we would have made some kind of progress???

Grayson is going to have a whole sh!t storm thrown his way in the next few weeks, which may see him leave the club. Expect Bates to be whoring him out to other clubs, and Grayson to be leaving for "personal reason" or "mutual consent"

Bad times.

what a crock of s**te

Believable2 Unbelievable2

This isn't bullsh*t.

An injuction has been filed on behalf of Grayson to protect him and people close to him. Bates is said to be extremely annoyed that Grayson allowed his personal AffairS *underlined, hint, hint* to get out of control. This all came from a Leeds Legend who played right wing for Leeds, said to have a 90mph *ahem* "car". He said this in a very public forum, Bates' and his favourite restaurant the Foundry, down Holbeck Urban Village. {Ed001's Note - I will have to stop this discussion there, if an injunction has been filed the site can be shut down for allowing people to discuss it.}

Brilliant strategy to run a club. spend like mad on players and wages, don't improve the ground or facilities.

the more we make, the more there is to spend.

You heard this here first....remember.
Leeds United in talks with asian big money men on a takeover.
That's possibly the reason that no player business has been concluded.....FACT

------------------------------------------------

Or the fact that its the 13th June and not many teams have made much movement
=====================

however, we cant leave it too long before we start making signings.
