If the currant bun is to be believed then our own kiwi komando is worth £20m. Bring it on, add £15m for Pontus, £5m from a tribunal for the suit maker, £10m for viera from that German club that were meant to be sniffing around then this time next year we could be the richest club in league 1!

Hardy my man. A bit off fun and jesting does the world off good. Rad will sort it all out. just throwing it out here. With the money in the Chinese super league and the ever growing number off Chinese buyers too clubs in England . would we welcome rad to get major investment from the Chinese or just plod along hoping all will come good. ! and rad has full control with minimum investment. It's beyond me how people can't see that we are leedsunited. At least in the top 5/6 biggest clubs in England and not want to invest or buy to see success. Or is maybe that's the problem. WE ARE LEEDS UNITED. lol ⚽️⚽️👍😃

Battymatty how do you come to the conclusion we are 5/6 biggest club in England? If your talking about who has won the most trophys you will find that we are 16th with the likes of Blackburn forrest Shef wed sunderland and west brom all bigger than us. We are the 4th best supported team in England but that counts for nothing 1D have a large fanbase but there music is crap. We have no money so at the moment we are a mid table skint club who has to sell there best players to pay old debts so who in there right mind would invest in us?

are we really 4th best suppotred team in england? i find that very hard to believe

Yes i believe we are. On many polls we are the 4th best supported team home and away.

Hardy. I said in previous post at LEAST top 5/6. I'm not exacting . even though I was suggesting it was on fan base, I think a club can be ascertained in size by the supporters. not too long ago Man City were taken over by a great investment and in my humble opinion don't have the support off Leeds united and look at them now. My question was in a way was if city can do that. Why can't an investor with billions do the same with us. Just my hope guys. ! ⚽️⚽️👍😂

Also hardy I think your statement of saying bring the 4th best supported club in England counts for nothing. ? It does if the invest in a club isn't there. But a club well supported and with good owners and investors that is well run goes a long way. An example is Celtic north off the border. And across the irish sea from myself . they are a great example off a great supported. Well run club with a sensible investment. It also helps they qualify for champions league every year. Though. With sound investment no reason why we can't get promoted and and compete for top 4 in premiership. I think we all
Know that's were Leeds should be. It's just been assholes who run out club and ran it almost into the ground.

Couple days ago I logged on to a well-known website which sells books. The one I ordered entitled "A Premier Look into Birds" arrived this morning but to my astonishment there was no mention of Owls. Should I keep the book guys? I already called the publisher to voice my concern but they said the book was entirely accurate! 😁

I believe it rarely works for a player to return to Leeds after leaving the club. The nearest I can remember it working was when Batty came back. He made an immediate impact and Leeds looked a completely different team - far better than before he returned. However, even in this case the positive impact on the pitch was short lived due to his injury. I never really rated Howson when he at Leeds the only reason his departure looked like a loss was that his successors were not up to scratch. When he played he, and the other midfielders, had their good points but we always needed three in the middle to be the equivalent of having two good ones. Bringing Howson back wouldn't take us forward I hope we do better.

We just need a midfield pairing who can get the ball hold up the game and pass when the time is right . Sometimes are young lads have been inconsistent or shown just a bit of a lack of experience . I believe Howson or the likes of would suit us well, and I would sign two experienced heads for central midfield . With the amount of games and injuries etc .

hess well let me remind you or a player coming back to success, the story of a man montain, a ledgend, a great in between the sticks. on the 11th of december 1960 a demi god called Jovan Lukic was born. he signed for leeds 78 and played for us until 83 when he left for better thing, then in 90 a wise man brought him back. he then went on to be a ever present god for two years ensuring the team over achieved more than any leeds team being champions. my point is, it is not about bringing players back or not, it is about bringing back the right players, i wasnt sold on howson first time round now sure how good he would be now, but delph gradel and even sir john lukic for a 3rd stint in goal i would be fully behind

With the names Adam / Howson, what does that do to Viera / O'Kane? Upfront, a different matter, grab 15/20 mill and sign (one of) Abraham / Assombalonga / Fletcher.

Happy Friday everyone. God I miss football at the weekends already. Help needed with how to communicate with Mrs Mick over these long tedious weekends please. Any small talk and neanderthal comments greatly appreciated. Cheers guys. MM

MM, tell her you've become a Trappist Garry and have therefore taken a vow of silence until the first week of August and the only person you're prepared to engage in a dialogue with and make an exception is your SIL. Furthermore, you insist on most conversations with her commencing with the word "Geronimo! ". That could be a very subtle way of dealing with your communication problems with the troubled strife over the summer.

Starters for next season are Green if good pre season Ayling Bartle Johanson New be. Or berahdi. If newbe. What we going to do with berahdi. Try in midfield maybe. Bit unfair to not include the most professional and one of best players of last year. Viera Bridcutt. If and only if he is positive. Newbe Newbe Newbe Wood. If he stays and keeps trim. that's 4 first teamers. Possibly 6 if wood and pontus go. I think players like hern. Dallas. Okane cooper roofe are good enough subs. I think we need to loan a few good quality champ players and buy prem players once we there. One season at a time.
