Craig Noone?Cardiff are after wingers must not rate him good enough for prem, IMO he was there best wide player /good balls into box last year be a good signing, wonder if Brian thinks same time will tell

Believable0 Unbelievable0

He was rubbish last season and was far from there best wide man. try conway

Agree0 Disagree0

Conway? Bellamy and Noone were the wide players when I saw them on telly

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree with first post, I've liked him everytime I have seen him, vinny.

Wasn't the Mackay-Stevens rumour started by a ''journalist'' on twitter who came out as 2 6th form kids having a laugh? Dundee already confirmed no clubs have approached them for GMS so why do we persist with talking about him? if there's any actual evidence i've missed please let me know because otherwise your all getting your hopes up for no reason. We will bring in a winger i'm 100% sure mcd will bring in at least 1 winger who this is will probably be a surprise like the wootton smith and Murphy signings.

I have a leeds app and the dundee manager said he hopes to keep him with leeds and blackburn interested

Agree0 Disagree0

Because if you haven't realised this is a rumours website. Take everything with an extra large pinch of salt, unless it has FACT at the end of it then it's defo true.
In GFH and McD I trust.

Haven't posted for a while and.

If we could get Sharp, Vaz Te, Mills and some pace & creativity out wide by letting Ross and Peltier go, I think I would be really tempted.

I think we would have to have a deal done before it was agreed, but 3 proven championship players, who have also played (albeit not a lot) in the prem would be hard to turn down.

I like Ross, and his goal last week was brilliant, but you have to say he's really only our best attacking player on the basis he has no real competition at the moment.

I'd be more than happy if he stayed, but strength in depth is vital in this league, we're Ross to get an injury, we'd struggle.

Peltier and matt mills set for swap deal. I'm usure on this as as much as I like matt mills I have been pleased with Pelletier so far this season

Believable0 Unbelievable0

What games you been watching?! gives the ball away everytime he has it! a 'footballer' who can't pass/cross/keep possesion. USELESS.

Agree0 Disagree0

Peltier has been a lot better than last season would rather keep than get Mills. Serious bad attitude .

Agree0 Disagree0

Adamstani07, are you sure your not an uddersfeeled fan because your comments on here are poor to say the least, BOOM. As for getting stuff right you have got nothing right unless it has already been printed in the press. How much smoke do you blow up your own 4ss

Agree0 Disagree0

Handbags! Ha ha ha Peltier actually played well last week, just saying boys

Agree0 Disagree0

Adamstani07 The only players who should be slated are the ones who don't give 100%, if some manager buys you and then another plays you then that's down to them, you are only as talented as you are. If I was picked to play for Leeds I would play and burst my heart for the club but I am rubbish, that does not make less passionate than the next man. The manager picks the team, we are always looking to improve so lay off the backs of the triers and concentrate on the one taking a wage and don't give a dump. I am guessing you pack shelves for a living you are certainly no football manager.

Agree0 Disagree0

Peltier has been our best defender this season so far so this is obviously complete rubbish

Agree0 Disagree0

No football manager?! You don't need to be a football manager to see how bad of a footballer Lee Peltier is. How can you get paid thousands a week and not play a short simple pass to a player in a white leeds shirt. His first touch is awful, he lumps the ball forward to no one, can't take a defender on. He puts one or two tackles in now and again but that's it. Very limited player, and with Brian Mac playing a shorter passing game, we cannot afford players who can't keep possesion! GET RID.

Agree0 Disagree0

Adamstani07 Peltier gets picked to play and gets paid thousands per week, this does not happen because he can't play football, there is a reason for this. Have a word with BMC see if he listens to you, guess what! you would be escorted from the premises. Stop whinging leave peltier alone and move on

Agree0 Disagree0

If you have been to er this season and watched peltier you'll know he's still not great, he's looking better at right back but still lumps it all the time and can't pick a forward pass. he's defo not been our best defender as one of the posters suggested, imo pearce has been. i'd take the swap deal as byram and wootton can both play rb, and mills looked superb playing under bm at reading. vinny.

Agree0 Disagree0

Above poster thank-you ^^ who ever said I no nothing about football is obviously clueless. I want rid of Peltier because I want leeds to play GOOD football and not hoofball and lose possesion. I've watched every game this season, and everytime he's on the ball the same thing happens. Hoof and lost possesion. In our formation we need an attacking rightback to give the midfielders options and to get to the byline and deliver a decent cross. Peltier can do none of these so I realy cannot see how any one can rate him unless they like watching hoofball?!

Boro offer $2m + for ross
Thats mackay steven and billy sharp for ross!?
Yes or no?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Its on th OS now that mac is in talks with Leeds about a new contract, and ths manager has refuted claims of a swap deal with Bolton involving Peltier and Mills.

Agree0 Disagree0

If we get £2m for ross we will only have about £1m left by the time the suits take their cut

Agree0 Disagree0

No, i'd rather keep Ross personally

Agree0 Disagree0

No. We need to keep adding quality players, not swapping them. That's one step forward one step back!

Agree0 Disagree0

Mackey Steven I've been told is just a sunday pk player with tricks! that's probably why no one has come in for him. Billy Sharp the real though. Plenty of goal in him but obviously will need the service. Personally i'd rather keep McCormack than get the two of them as he's a better alround player than them two and just one set of wages! MOT.

Agree0 Disagree0

Pelts for mills yes yes and yes again pelts average for me with mills aswell as Wooton and lees oh and Pearce best defence in championship build from the back very smart just need some flair now :) for the moment until we sell McCormack lol luving gfh and McDermott

Reports have it that there is a real chance of Leeds and Bolton doing a swap deal involving Peltier and Mills, if this is true it would make perfect sense now we have wootton who can cover at right back until Byram is fully fit he may be able to cross a ball where as Peltier cannot and with Rodolph Austin and Matt Mills a solid spine to the side would be starting to emerge. That would give us Mills Lees Pearce Wootton Warnock Byram and Drury enough cover for all the back positions and with the like of Austin sitting just in front of them it would seam pretty strong. We would just need an out and out striker and a left winger to complete the squad upto the winter transfer window.

BMD was asked about this so-called swap and he denied it.

Agree0 Disagree0

If we can be assured of getting billy sharp from Southampton before letting Ross go then sell him, I think billy sharp would guarantee you 20 goals a season I'm not sure about Ross, not sure he's a 20 goal a season man, and if your going to make play offs you needs that man, ideal world buy sharp keep Ross there's play offs guaranteed.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I think we could easily get 20 goals out of McCormack, providing he stays fit. We've finally got a manager who sees him for what he is and doesn't want to play him out wide. I hope he sorts a new deal quickly. He's good at bringing others into the game and should we go up, I think he's good enough for the top flight.

Agree0 Disagree0

whats all this rubbish about swapping Pelts for Mills!

Total madness imo. Pelts has proved already this season he is well upto the job.
Has Mills even had a game this season?

and Boro can bog off too.

Matty B

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Agree, give the lad a chance, he looked poor last season but that was because everybody in front of him was poor too, you can't do it on your own. In a better side he will be ok

i think patel could gain a few enemies by trying to push for.an alcohol ban NOT a good idea at all just because of his religion is that an absaloute joke or what? also not sure what to make about becchio going.middlesbourgh?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

A total nonsence the whole story. Voices from ER denying it, and why would they have signed a new booze contact?

i thought they were already not selling booze at Elland Rd looking at the long queues at half time and poor bar staff

Agree0 Disagree0

This type of rumour always comes out when an arab is involved in buying a club. probably started by EDL nut jobs.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Aug 2013 00:20:32
Ha ha like the comment about the queues and rubbish bar staff. Couldn't get a pint in east stand at sheff wednesday game started queuing at beginning of half time and still couldn't get a drink . Ended up nicking my nephews coke.

Saw Jason Pearce leaving Harrogate hospital Wednesday morning at about 10 o'clock is he injured?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Took a smack to the head against Shef W, probably having stitches removed.

No mate he's not injured your just seeing things! Mot.

You must of seen his twin cause he was training at thorpe arch . Pictures on official site prove that . Mot .

I can see Ross being sold for 2.2m and Luciano coming back on loan at in between two thirds and three quarters of his premiership wage with Norwich. Dioufy to replace Ross. Luciano to relegate Hunt to squad player. I can see this happening.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Becchio is off to them as Norwich will accept 1.8 and we won't for Macca.

Agree0 Disagree0

What a deal for them again. got him for nowt and off-loaded Morison's higher wages, then sold for 1000% what they paid.

Agree0 Disagree0

They paid for becchio did they not I can't imagine we would have accepted only a trade deal

Agree0 Disagree0

Think gfh have learnt that warnock was a brainless dim wit and have got mcd in because of his good management skills and wheeling, dealing and talent spotting. Doubt mcd will be interested in beccio. A team for the future is being formed, throw back to the good old days. Rather than buying top of their game expensive players, mcd is buying young prospects and grooming them for the second coming

Agree0 Disagree0

They paid a very small fee, it was essentially a straight swap.
