Chris Burke was a maniac not coming to leeds a WeLl known worldwide club. Instead stayed in West Midlands crazy lad

Chris Burke didn't have the choice. Birmingham issued a price tag for Burke, Leeds wouldn't pay it. The issue was one of valuation between clubs, not Chris Burke turning us down.

I heard from a very reliable source it wasn't about the money. he just wants to make the world dance apparently?!

Know doubt that is a great team you have just put out. I would add Smith to that team as when playing for Leeds always gave he's all and he's all was very good.
Say what you like about Smith he was Leeds though and though and played with he's hart on he's sleeve and for me was one of the grates to step on to the hallowed ground I say again He Gave every to leeds and should be recognised as doing so

Viduka got to be on bench at least easily one of best finishers we have had in ages

1. martyn 2. kelly 3. dorigo 4. batty 5 radebe 6. ferdinand ( better than woodgate) 7 strachan 8 yeboah 9 viduka 10 mccallister 11 speed

all the defenders have pace
you can't split up that midfield even with kewell
viduka touch, skill and goals
yeboah, pace power and awesome goals

that team would win the prem

subs lukic woodgate bowyer currie kewell wallace ( or hasselbaink) chapman

Ferdinand better than Woodgate. You got to be joking! Woody best british CB I ever saw at a younger age. Only a run of serious injuries after the courtcase prevented him from being an English alltime great. And I mean Bobby Moore great. Terry Venables told me as much in his opinion. My team would be. Martyn, Sterland, Dorigo, Woodgate, Radebe, McAllister, Speed, Strachan, Sheridan, Viduka and Yeboah. Sterland and Kelly was a tough one though! Also Ferdinand and Radebe was a close call. As for subs. I could name loads as we have had some good players one time or another so I will stick at first 11. MOT.

Rachubka
Sa, Roque Junior, Gregan, Crainey

Sorsa, Burns, the Costa

Ricketts, Hately, Rush

This is surely up there as one of the best possible sides we could have put out . Premiership winners?

To the fifth poster Woodgate was good but you over exaggerate and he never did fulfil his potential. Much as I love Sterlkand, defensively he was a little suspect. you forget how Keely had Giggs in his pocket. the only player I saw give Kelly problems was Coventry's Darren Huckerby. Much as I like Sheridan you have no ball winner in midfield in your team and so Batty should be there instead.

To the sixth poster Rush was a great player for Liverpool and reasonable for us at the end of his career in a poor Leeds team that was so negative under the end of Wilko/Graham's first season .You could instead have chosen from those footballing forward goliaths of the late 80's Peter Swan, Bob Taylor, John Pearson, .

No one mentioned hasselebank but mentioned Wallace bit stranger hats why we have opinions I suppose

Hi eds heard any real gossip, regarding loans in or out its all gone very quiet on our front again Leeds for life
Mot!

Martyn, kelly, ferdinand, matteo, harte, bowyer, bakke, batty, kewell, viduka, speed.

Bakke and bowyer instead of mcall. Speed. Smith?

Ausman, I had Bowyer as one of my subs in my team, but you are seriously clueless if you would pick Bakke instead of Mccallister or Speed and even more clueless if you think that Alan Smith would get a look in instead of Yeboah, Viduka, and then there's Wallace, Hasselbaink and Chapman. I liked Smith's work ethic, he scored some important goals in the Champions League but he is no goalscorer as the and Geordies also found out.

Ausman. Speed is in my team. Bakke was a better midfielder than Smith. McAllister was before my remembering.

listen gfh need to invest in this club first and foremost, that means investing on the pitch, bringing new players in like snodgrass you buy them young and cheap they get you into prem league there's 90m, if it doesn't work out you don't get promoted they move on for millions more than you paid for them.secondly you buy back elland rd and thorp arch then you own the whole lot, would that not be easier to sell it would make Leeds utd a better prospect for potential buyers than it does right now.

Thanks for that shirlock, but Rome wasnt built in a day, give GFH time and they will sort things, were still in a Post-Bates environment, it won't be cured straight away

We all want more, its the nature of supporters, but we need to be realistic.

With little spare revenue available monthly due to the previous person, they have to take things more slowly than anticipated.

I am delighted we are only a couple of players short, its better than last season with six players and a manager short. MOT
