I read some of the possible signings being mentioned.Most of these signings will require a fee to purchase plus descent wages.Im sure Warnock has had promises from Bates that is why he came and is still here.I truly hope this is the turning point with Bates and he will put his hand in his pocket and give Warnock the chance to give us a great chance of promotion next season.I like every Leeds fan just want to see success and passion from our team.I want to get excited about the coming weeks the quality players coming in the dead wood being shown the door.Lets hope Mr Bates now that you have a shiny new stand and the restaurant is lovely you will now invest in players and give us a real chance next season.

I want to pay a bit less for a ticket, but cant see that happening,stuck with the team all season like you do,but feel totally robbed of my money with the home performances lets hope Warnock can pay us back with a team worthy of the ticket price.
Agree7
Disagree1
I know what you are saying i havent missed a home game all season and dont even have a season ticket and to still go to matches on a weekday and get poor results after poor results is depressing but i still cnaat stop going so neither should the rest of you. MOT

Okay so he gets a lot of stick. But he is big, strong, and will definately bang in goals at a championship level. This man has scored 111 top flight goals fgs.

And how do u know warnock doesn't, ur just another 1 of these dilusional counts who thinks bates is gonna give warnock millions to spend. I will be suprised if they pay for 2 players. Rest will be freebies. Not to worry the messiah is here now and everything will be rosy. W4nk4

Believable6
Unbelievable2
I hope it is a complete clearout!
Agree5

We are in drastic need of a clear out, weve sold all our promising players and weve been left with the dregs of the barrel, to think what our team would have look like had we kept some of our players over the last few seasons :(

Lee Barnard in talks with Leeds United.
Believable3
Unbelievable8
He turned us down for Soton and has done nothing but prove he wasn't good enough anyway, lucky escape for us.
Agree6
Disagree1
Ross McCormack - 20 goals in 63 apps - Leeds
Lee Barnard - 23 goals in 60 apps - So'ton
Agree3
Disagree1
McCormack's a far better player than Barnard.
Agree1

McCormack never really got going last season. cant fairly judge him on that. and you cant fairly judge barnard on that either because most of his appearances are from the bench

Just been casting an eye over some of the players who's contracts are expiring at the end of this season and taken an age range between 23 to 32 and even to my untutored eye there are some useful players on this list that may be worth a punt by NW for next season most of the "names" i would look at a max 2 year deal
worth a punt (2 yr)
Owen Hargreaves
Michael Owen
Tomas Kuszczak
Jonathon Woodgate
Ones worth serious thought
Adam Hammill (M) Boro
Tomas Jutkiewicz (S) Boro
Zak Whitbread (CB) Norwich
Chris Kirkland (GK) Wigan
Given that they would all be free transfers the only stumbling block i could see would be wages thoughts or other players anyone
Believable5
Unbelievable3
Useful players in their day but most injury prone or over the hill now, The ambitious Adam Hammill turned us down for Barnsley a few years ago!! maybe they offered him more money but i would say he's missed his chance now.
Agree4
Disagree0
Would make a big impact,but like you say,wages would be the stumbling block,may have to lower our sights a bit.
Agree2
Disagree2
Hammill is on loan at 'Boro from Wolves, and seeing as they went down I would imagine they'll be looking at keeping him for next season.
LUKAS Jutkiewicz signed for 1.3m for 'Boro in January, so I very much doubt they only gave him a 6 month deal.
But a good effort at talking a load of s***e!

I would love leeds to sell snoddy in the summer! Yes he's our captain but that's where it ends poor player! We could use the sale to buy far better players! I would be happy to see this happen
Believable6
Unbelievable12
Completely disagree..

Sounds like you belong at Leeds Rhinos
Agree8

Come June and July the official site will be full of stories like 'Gaffer wont be rushed in to buying poor quality' 'Gaffer just misses out on striker' ' So and so signed on loan' 'Mr X signed on freebie' same as we've had for the last number of years . Dont be stupid enough to think that Bates is going to give warnock sufficient cash to build a new team.
Agree4
Disagree6
If that is on the official site so will warnock walks . if bates doesn't invest then he is a total person enjoying life in the dumps of the championship. i think if bates doesn't give warnock 5 mil then theres no way we will get anywhere near promotion without the sale of snoddy.
the person that said snoddy is a poor player you are a person too ,the only think snoddy lacks is pace which is no big deal .
Agree1
Disagree1
Sell snodgrass? you having a laugh! Hes carried us through games this season, he works the hardest of our team, sel our captain? pfft get back to your sofa or maybe actually get to some games.
Agree3
Disagree1
If he's carried us might explain why he is so slow and tired after 10 mins!
Agree1
Disagree2
'poor player.' what are you on about? i dont know anyone that would disagree hes our best player
Agree0
Disagree0
I know, lets sell another one of our league 1 stars who 'are not good enough'.
I mean sure, Howson and Johnson havn't joined a prem team pushing top 10.. oh no wait! Now your saying sell the captain, the best player and the heart of our team at the minute. clever post, i mean really really clever post... cough

Get Ricardo Fuller, Connor Salmon, Jason Pearce, Sol Bamba, Shaun Derry, Paul Green and Paddy Kenny in for next season.
Get rid of Paynter, Bruce, O'Brien, Brown, Becchio, Forssell, Kisnorbo.
Also Somma to be back aswell so good news and freshen attacking line up.
Other realistic targets include Theo Robinson, Clint Hill, Bradley Orr, Sammy Clingan and Ronan Finn.
And please just buy Peter Whittingham, he is class.

Keep Becchio..

Why would you get rid of becchio and bruce 2 players which can do a job in this division .we will start off by removing 3rd choice players that dont play then 2nd choice you dont start releasing first team players first what a clown u are well done for been stupid your parents must be so proud

So you'd like to get rid of Becchio and bring in Theo Robinson?
