Think Josh Morris is worth a look. Played league one most of career. Started in Prem with Blackburn at left back. Loaned out a lot since they went down . Joined Scunthorpe last year and now playing on wing, scored 18 this season, 8 last season. Be a decent squad player maybe, cover down left side and prob cheap

Leeds seem impressed with demand for tickets for Forest game 22,500 sold, sorry but for the position where in and much better home form that's poor we should be getting 30,000 now regardless of opposition.

Completely agree. How are teams like Brighton averaging bigger gates than us. Not as big a club as we think. And yes I will be there.

So likes of Brighton derby and Wednesday are giving tickets away? We were never really a big football city and unless we become a Chelsea never will be.

Slough our attendances have always proved Leeds is not a big football city.

This football club can easily average 40,000 or more many fans have become disillusioned over the years by owners with no ambition, i was there when 50,000 turned at ER against Barcelona and we've had many crowds behond 40,000 from the 60,s up to the last Premiership days, we are a sleeping giant that needs waking up and sooner or later it will happen we have a big national and world wide following.

My point is that we only get big crowds when successful. Recently at least eight championship clubs get better attendances. I never thought I'd see the day when likes of derby Brighton and Norwich beat out crowds. Even this season we've had some piss poor attendances even though we going well. Before Revie came Leeds were not a big football city. He changed that but not to the likes of other big cities. We might not have the most but we have the best fans.

Im sick of reading all the posts below, we have lost one game. Before barnsley we would have defended every player on how well and hard they have worked this year. We lose one game and we need new cb's, Ayling is rubbush, berardi isn't the player he was last year. all this rubbish. Its boring, we are 4th in the league, what more do you want from them, they go out every game and give it there all and first time in YEARS we have a team who want to play for us and excites us.

We don't need to make loads of signing, one signing can upset the whole squad. i'm happy with everything and cannot wait for tomorrow night to watch us beat forest! let's enjoy it and stop moaning at everything, we can't go all season without losing! MOT :-)

About time someone started talking with sense! There's not a player in our team I don't rate, I was stunned when I saw the score line because I couldn't watch the game. We've got the best team we've had in the championship and the best we've had for over a decade. They play for eachother and to be attracting people like Hernandez and Bridcutt along with young fresh talent like vieria.

Think we should be lucky that we even have these players let alone be writing them off. Criticism where it's due, doukara doesn't deserve first time week in week out, give someone new a chance, or just someone different, with sacko back in the team I can't see him keeping his place because roofe if on a different level to him. Player of the season so far for me from Leeds is Barts, cool head, sorts his back line, undermined by the passion in Jansson.

Last season we slated our CB's ans goalkeeper more than anyone, so monk brings in a fresh set and it's still the area we criticise the most when we lose. I'm far from disappointed, we normally have just short of 50 points in a good season by the end of it, let alone with 20 games to go! MOT

Well said both Samo and Phil - a couple of quality posts

I agree to an extent but think is a little harsh on the comments from the fans below. No one has gone over the top, Baridi is very good player but first choice left back. not for me not in the big games (play offs) we have got where we are with taylor who is best in league so if he goes we need replacement.

with Dok I said all along (when people were slating and praising) he is decent player, great utliy man and great option from bench but he is now a first team starter and for me that makes hiim the weak link, I prefer sako and on pace along he can change games and win a lot of yards and quality he is maybe just better than douk. so not saying douk is useless just again if in playoffs I would prefer better in first 11.

no one has said aling is usless everyone loves aling, best rb in league and very good cb just team is weaker with him in cb as he is great at rb, again cloye great player but would worry if in playoffs and he was starting for me it comes down to this, we will probably make playoff where all teams are good, in form and playing for lives. so will baridi, douk and cloye be enough to win it?

maybe not so maybe we need a few people in, in case of injuries. I think no injuries our team can beat anyone but would worry if few are out and we are at wembley in prem play off against quality. i think that is all most on here are saying

I believe it's 12 years this weekend since Bates took over the club. 12 long years filled with false dawns, false hope, tears, despair, tragedy, and a lot of head shaking. Finally things looking up!
