With wingers coming in, does that mean Sam B can eventually be used in his best role as RB?

You think on form he will dislodge Berardi?

I believe SB is more likely to turn into several million pounds within the next 23 hours.

it more likely means that Sam will be sold.

I'm not sure he will be sold. I want him to be so we can get the dosh cause I reckon he will go next year. Can't see any prem team still rumoured with him though?

I think Botaka n Pozo(if he arrives) will push sam not necessarily start. also in a 4-3-3 its quite common to sub your wingers as they tend to cover a lot of ground.

After the game at Derby.

I was heading back to the train station when who pulls up at the side of me in a Range Rover? That's right. Massimo himself being chauffeured along. I shouted him and game a good old fashioned "Leeds Leeds Leeds" salute.

I said "come on massimo" to which he echoed my salute. Couldn't believe my luck. Facetimed (other video chat apps are available) some of the lads up in Wakefield and got him to do it again on camera. What a day.

I arrived at the train station to see massimo on his own waiting for the train. His chat was minimal but he took the time to pose for a selfie with me and to show me his mobile telephone cover - this was of course a Leeds United one!

We all have our opinions. But I have to say. An all round decent bloke.

Oh and George. You should alter your name to George Lucas potentially? By depol?

Did you ask him whether he's paid tax on that Range Rover?

I'm not sure the moderators would agree to a name change. Beside, there's already one Lucas on here. He posted above. Oh and it's deed poll.

I wish a club worthy of Scott Wooton's playing level would come in for him before tomorrow's 6pm deadline. Does anyone know the telephone number for Bradford Park Avenue?

George please go not put posts like this on the site without public warning .
Nearly put coffee all over my keyboard!

Agree he is not good enough, that's why I would love to get cover for Taylor because if he is out for any reason can see Berardi being moved across and wooton on right, would prefer young Coyle before him

Their reserves have said they don't need him

Greetings one and all. Just back from a break in the smoke, probably near your stomping ground BW (Surrey Quays?).

Great result at the weekend. A fantastic team performance. Cook, Ant (for his cameo role), Wood (for his goal), Cooper (improving) and the best right back in the league, Berardi, for me were all excellent but there was plenty more to be excited about including Adey, Sol and the rest of them. Sam looks like he's trying to stay injury free for his big move and good luck to him if he goes. I just hope the money will be re-invested if not this transfer window but the next one, ready for a push to promotion.

I wonder what Untouchables and his mate who reckon we are embarrassing think right now?

We're going in the right direction and if we can take games to the likes of Derby, we shouldn't be afraid of any team in this league.

Down the pints, up the Whites!

{Ed001's Note - MM have you seen the Jason Statham film Blitz? I just wondered if that was you in it as the informer in the shell suit? Only that is how I imagine you looking.....}

31 Aug 2015 14:53:06
hello MM,

i know surrey quays well. opposite the station the other side of the shopping center is a football and boxing club called red lion, that is where is use to play and box as a lad and where I hold all my rehearsals now so I am always there. Just the other side is a spoons where I had a great row with three millwall fans over a team you may of heard of called leeds. Next time your that way let me know and ill be in the spoons for a drink.

also agree with the post we are going the right way and sooner or later will be going up

Thought as captain poster of the site MM you had instructed us not to reply to them. Why are you mentioning them?

Good analysis of Derby.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Aug 2015 16:02:22
Yeah sorry Georgie boy. I've let myself down again. I shouldn't have mentioned them but couldn't resist. (Captain? lol).

Ed, I've got a bit more hair than Statham although every morning more and more is left on my pillow so could be a dead ringer for him in a few months (I wish)!

BW, next time we go down to the smoke I'd gladly join you for a pint or three in 'Spoons.

{Ed001's Note - not Statham mate, the guy who gives him info on the killer in the pub has a shell suit on and is exactly how I imagine you looking.}

In a pub with a shell suit on you say? Certainly sounds like me Ed!

Lets just stop this negativity we are only five games in rosler is doing a great job so far and whatever is going on off the pitch is not effecting the lads so i'm happy cellino has stepped back a bit and credit to him adamson is steadly getting things sorted out and gfh and their input will be sorted out i'm sure in good time.we all have our opinions I've supported leeds for over fifty years and will do till I peg it! We are doing ok so far support them dnt knock them only five games in christ!!

Lads, there will always be some drama off the pitch in the back ground that's leeds utd!!
What counts is that its not effecting our lads on the pitch

I agree George. Things going on in background that we can only guess about. But on the face of it the team that now represents Leeds are a young honest bunch of lads who need our support. If only we could find another Bobby Collins/ Gordpn Strachan type of player to help these young lads along.

31 Aug 2015 11:35:00
i think we have one in sol bamba. good honest player with experience and touch of class. best leeds captain in a long while

Agree1 Disagree1

Agree Hunters would be nice to have someone in midfield who could help the young lads out, Nolan would be ideal, but these lads are showing good character and learn by their mistakes. Can only get better.

Agree1 Disagree0

31 Aug 2015 16:12:00
Hunters, regarding the BC/GS type that time has gone. Those players move to the MLS. Gerrard, Lampard. I think our midfield is fine and does not require additions. Defense requires a reinforcement. That Spurs player would have been ideal.

Regarding behind scenes stuff, I do believe Cellino is staging very initial talks/sounding out prospective buyers for his shareholding and there's a group in the know who are determined to lower the feelgood factor so the valuation is also lower. They post on here.

Great weekend, we win, that other United lose. (I'm guessing Ed decided what I'd called them in a previous post was deemed not fit to post.) At least one new signing on the way and a general good feel around the club. The force will be with us, always
