the badge "Fiasco" is either a major blunder or a brilliant masterstroke and for the life of me I cannot decide which. Radz was, within minutes, risking a Jihad then just as spectacularily being hailed a saint. Eitherway the man certainly comes out smelling of Roses. By design or pure good fortune I just do not know.

I suppose you're right Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeds, yes, similar to our own fire sales under Ridsdale. Are we still paying Robbie Fowler? If they're willing to pay 50 of his 60k per week, then it's worth a pop!

If I was TC I would probably be happy to play Fowler right now. Few arthritis pills and he would be on a par with our average player.

Listening to a sports radio station today, they had Angus Kinnear on yesterday promoting the new club badge. One of the presenters said he was informed that the "fans" consulted for the badge was made up from parents and players of our youth team/teams. Wow we must have thousands of them!

Maybe the fans should join in the building for the future scenario and not buy season tickets for the next 2-3 seasons! See how important the here and now becomes then. I don't care about the 20-30 u23 players we have. History tells us only 3-5 will make first team. I don't actually care about the design of the badge too much either. I just think if we don't get a decent striker and new manager very quickly. Then we have missed the boat. Next year will be a harder league. Next year we will not have pontus, vierra or saiz. that's way to big a gap to plug.

we have got thousands of them - if they asked all of our youth players plus both their parents / guardians that probably adds up to around 10 thousand. Plus, if they were asking 15 year olds that probably explains the final decision.

Seems that badge only just beat a depiction of Pontus drinking the blood of his enemies from a skull In other news, what on earth could Sunderland have that we'd want to swap loneghan for? Other than the result of the 1973 cup final I'd take that Otherwise I'm struggling

Would anybody complain at charlie wyke? 38 goals and 13 assists since 2015/16 in league 1. the fee is looking to be around 4/5 million, and i know he's only played in league one since then but he is prolific and the bradford fans love his work rate my mate whos a bradford fan says he should have been championship last year. very clinical and good in the air, useful from set pieces. I like the player and at only 25, he's worth the punt imo. could be golden.

For a not proved in this division player then maybe he is a tad overpriced. The only way I would look at him was on a lowish bid with extras paid if he shoots us to the Prem.

Guys I spoke to Kinnear and Radz. I found out what happened. Case of Chinese whispers. Apparently it all started when Radz said he wanted a "better Crest" which Kinnear took for toothpaste because Radz had his finger in his mouth at the time and he kept mentioning visiting his dentist. So Kinnear took it upon himself to buy his mate some Arm and Hammer toothpaste which he thought was "better than Crest". Upon delivery, Radz started smiling and told the PR manager "this is a better Crest". The rest is history. We in full cover up mode now but some good may come out of this communication mess because apparently Gaviscon want to sponsor us next season.

Radz may receive class action law suit for causing Leeds fans Post Traumatic Stress Disorders. I'm already having nightmares and flashbacks although that could be Mrs I' s doing.
