At last seen footage of KunT. My mate was at Hull U18 game. Looks good but not one for first team yet. Scored two and looks a decent side with a few good ones in there. Maybe not first team next season but reckon a couple will be moving up to U23 squad. Still reckon Dalby is worth a start this season though.

Hi guys was just wondering does anyone know if Martyn likes mick McCarthy?
29 Mar 2018 18:26:30
Love him, I'd buy him a pint. The most honest manager out there.
29 Mar 2018 18:50:40
That’s it then, Martyn has spoken. He’s our gaffer for next season
29 Mar 2018 19:59:48
He will do for me then if he has martyns deal of approval.
29 Mar 2018 21:38:05
At least we'd have some cheesy smile at pressers.
30 Mar 2018 09:01:48
Lets get this right is it Martyn or Mick for manager next season - i am confused.
30 Mar 2018 14:10:16
Were going to fight for it ox 😁
29 Mar 2018 15:28:03
Not sure I'm keen on Hecky wearing an orangey red Leeds badge on his training gear. What's that about?
29 Mar 2018 18:27:03
Reminds him of his roots alf
29 Mar 2018 21:51:18
The problem with written word on sites like this, is that it's sometimes hard to tell what is sarcasm, and what isn't. TC had the same badge, as do the other coaching staff, and it's in support for Toby Nye. The young lad who now seems to be in remission after his treatment for neuroblastoma. Hope he continues in his recovery. MOT FOR TOBY!
29 Mar 2018 23:36:32
Lets get mad Mick on board if current geezer don't work out, which is looking likely!
29 Mar 2018 14:06:12
Monk is in the paper saying that he wants to prove everyone wrong by getting Birmingham promotes to the Premiership. I never knew that he did stand up.
29 Mar 2018 21:53:54
Hopefully, this is just the second phase of his stand up act, after boro. 😂😂😂

Just been reading an article on the worst Prem team in recent times. Part of the problem was in their doldrums there were no leaders, in the dressing room or on the pitch. This could also be a reason for our demise recently. When all is going well you can get away with no leader but when the dip comes forcefull players are worth their weight in gold. I cannot name a Dave Mackay or a Roy Keane in our ranks. The nearest would be Pontus but he retreats into a shell when he should be rallying the troops. This is maybe a quality that Hecky has identified and not only footballing prowess will be on his shopping list this summer. There are quite a few old pros out there who would love to go out on a bang. We only need a couple of seasons out of them to grab the flag, go charging on shouting follow me boys, we can do it.
29 Mar 2018 13:45:11
Sorry if you didn't already know Derby was the team. Finished with 11 points and relegated in March.
29 Mar 2018 15:17:57
INteresting Leodis thanks for that. Ideally we need leaders all over the pitch wheras the only one who seems to really get stuck in is Cooper usually. I think Forshaw could also be a leader on the pitch but this needs to be a 'culture' running through the whole team.
29 Mar 2018 16:51:01
Fully agree Alf. It's up to Hecky to instill that mentality into every last one of them. So much so that it's second nature. Any adversity just roll your sleeves up and get stuck in. Run a little bit faster. Tackle a little bit harder. A "culture" thing.
29 Mar 2018 17:07:01
spot on Leo
29 Mar 2018 21:56:10
Really think Forshaw will step up next season, and who knows, maybe there is a real leader waiting to come from the 23's? Billy was a junior when he came thro under the guidance of Bobby Collins.
29 Mar 2018 10:51:46
Its interesting how a team can implode. We rode our luck at begining of season and are really a 6-8th place team. But now we have just turned to rubbish. It prob wasnt all tc and i don't think its heck. Maybe the upper management are effecting the players. I mean they are not all as bad as they are playing. Knee jerk is heck is in trouble if we don't beat bolton well. But it must be an underlying problem. Something that has effected the players so much they have given up.
29 Mar 2018 11:17:04
Like you say Aus, it is difficult to find an explanation for the contrast between great Leeds at beginning of season and shat Leeds that we have now. Strangest season I can remember. Something odd has been at play.
29 Mar 2018 12:28:03
You're right Aus, it's totally baffling! Simple passes going astray, discipline out of the window too often. All of these players are capable of performing at a a better, more consistent level!
29 Mar 2018 13:06:47
#groundhogday #roundabouts not the 1st time tho is it? Seem to remember it happening more often than not in recent seasons
29 Mar 2018 13:51:07
Sorry but it is not baffling in the slightest. We had done the majority of our recruitment in the summer therefore TC had the opportunity to coach the style of play. Opening set of games were against teams that are in the lower half of the table and we sucker punched them with a brand of attacking football that had not been seen by a Leeds team for many years. Success builds confidence and we were top of the league. Then along come Millwall with the template that has since been copied by the majority of clubs to nullify out threat, coupled with the fact that at it's core the team is physically and mentally week, the high pressing football took it's toll and we were burnt out by Xmas. Defeats eat away at confidence, injuries occur and indiscipline sets in leaving the team to rely upon a weakly constructed squad. TC does not know what to do and is replaced in Feb. By that stage the damage is done and PH is working with a shell of a team who cannot wait for the season to end. As for being a 6th to 8th place squad, we can only hope to aspire to it as the quality is simply not there
29 Mar 2018 14:57:56
Please forward this post to Rads and Co, Make sure Kenner and Orta have a good read, give Hecks till the end of the season to see if he can demonstrate he is the right man to bring us forward, if not look for someone who knows how to get a team promoted, a Wagner or a McCarthy. Then go and spend the money needed to assemble the squad capable of gaining an auto place .
29 Mar 2018 15:20:16
We were great at the start of the season because we faced a load of rubbish teams and that gave us confidence. once we were found to be lightweight teams started to bully us and we lost confidence and the decline soon followed. we need to get the fight back into the team and get even the smaller players to show they can be hard as nails and will not back down or just continually fall over and expect a free kick. Hecky knows this and has spoken about it a number of times.
29 Mar 2018 17:18:07
Rubbish post notts and unusual bad one for you alf
We did ok last year. Then well this year. Then crap.
29 Mar 2018 20:12:51
Ausman1 I agree we had a good team which only need one or two additional players instead they replace the lot, with carp.
29 Mar 2018 22:10:08
"Replaced the lot". ? Wood went, because he wanted to, and for good money. KB went because he wasn't ours, and was overpriced, and then spent 6 months injured. Taylor was ooc, and didn't want to stay. Green should never have been allowed to leave, I agree. The rest of "the lot" were here already and have been added to, a few of them quality, a few not so great yet. Just my perspective.
29 Mar 2018 22:28:43
Totally clueless Ausman if you can't see what has happened. I take no pleasure from stating the facts or upsetting your point of view
