Not a chance at all, and m. Richards should travel back to Leeds with us and forget the blues should be playin for us seen as your from c. town.

Agree0 Disagree0

Should be a bit like Barnsley, win the game and get the boot!

Agree0 Disagree0

Warnock for pope

Agree0 Disagree0

6 popes gone an the queen lives on

Agree1 Disagree0

Why would they pay him off if his contract expires in May?

Agree0 Disagree0

Should not even have the privalige to manage a great tie like this! Hate what he has done! Did not want him at this club to begin with! Completely ruined the way a modern team plays football! Would not expect a Sunday league team down my local park to play this style of football, never liked leeds did he? And ain't he just showing it now! And don't give me the tosh about him having no money, he had more than Grayson and it is no excuse for the style of football he is making the lads play? I hate this Sheffield wan*er and want rid of him! The future is bright the future is white (without warnock!!!) Sussex white! Mot.

Agree1 Disagree2

Sussex White. I ve been posting these sentiments since September and been slated for not giving the guy a chance. The man has clearly stated he does not like our club, then gets hired, it can only end in tears (for us that is) Warnock will take his pay and leave still saying what a great job he did it was the fans fault for not reaching the playoffs. He is the most arrogant prixx to ever have come out of Sheffield but we are stupid for ever thinking he would do a job for us. He has quite openly sent Poleon out on loan to Sheff you to help them with their promotion push??
How does he get away with it. I can only think the other person to openly say they dislike our club is Bates yet they are both running our club. HOW HAS THIS HAPPENED?

Agree2 Disagree0

Have to say, Neil has been very disappointing both off and on the field. He has failed to stay in touch with the fans and that hasn't helped him at all. Hopefully next season we will be united as a club - Fans, Manager and Board. Here is hoping anyway!

Agree0 Disagree0

I do believe sunday will be his final game by mutual consent

i hope we get a decent manager like adkins or poyet

Agree2 Disagree1

IMO we need to get rid ASAP and get a decent manager in straight away. There are still 45 points up for grabs and we're only 8 points off play offs. I know we haven't got a squad of world beaters but we have a squa capable of getting to the playt offs. The problem for a long time has been tactics. Get someone in to freshen things up and actually play football and the season is defo not over!

Agree3 Disagree0

We live in hope.

Agree0 Disagree0

Why would Adkins or Poyet come to a club with no funding and another possible takeover pending!

Agree0 Disagree1

All this talk of us reaching the plsy offs is a joke. I can't believe the demise of such s great club but I can imagine us being a complrte joke if ee were to makr it too yhr play offs and actually reach the premiership. Warnock must go now and get a young euthsastic manager in or likes to see football played. Warnock sees we are not scoring goals so why not stsrt bringing the young plsyers in indtesd of sending them out on loan let them gain experience plsying for thier home team.

Agree1 Disagree0

Hope so we don't have midfield when attacking its just by passed

Agree0 Disagree0

Along with Colin and Capt Birdbrain, another famous hater of our beloved club was Old Big Ed. And that went well dint it?

Agree0 Disagree0

David Bentley off to Blackburn. Another winger going elsewhere that could have been in our price bracket. Presuming we have a bracket at all.

Joining the dots, it does seem as though no further investment will be made in the squad until the summer or whenever the club changes hands (again).

Mr Warnock (or whoever) should come clean and say what the future holds. It might even get a few fans back on side on the run in to the end of the season, if there is a chance of watching some interesting football for a change.

Colin has now written off our play off hopes. so shut the door on your way out. We have enough coaching staff to take control at the helm before this Sheffield tosser makes more of a mess than he already has.
We should also get shut of Warnocks old has beens so we have a barebones squad, we should use our youngster and have a blank canvass for the new manager otherwise the first job he will have to do is move the nohopers on before he can buy in.
We have the time now to prepare for a promotion next season, or get someone in who could possibly believe we still have the oppertunity of the playoofs

We don't need to get rid of anyone they are putting in the effort and can at least be sub in the championship next season.
Don't even say brown as to go he has done a great job this season even though his wage was significantly reduced as he was only meant to be a bit part player.
He's the type of player we have needed for years but maybe we could do with a younger faster player for him to be back up to.
We now need to build on this squad. A couple of quick wingers and a decent striker would of got us a playoff spot this season . That's a good place to start in the summer

Agree3 Disagree1

Ok let's look at the facts colin has had no backing whatsoever he has not had money to spend we are in exactly the same position as when sg was manager he was not given any money the players that are freebies are freebies for a reason who could get better results with the same group of players nobody so what is the point in getting rid of colin before the end of the season if they did and a new manager came in the board have no money so I ask you wheres the point let's face it the players are not good enough

Agree1 Disagree2

NW has said that no-one available on loan that could improve team - what a joke this is. - there was but he sent him back to everton earlier in week, never mind we have greeny, browny, norrissy and varney to dominate opposition midfields, so nowt to be worried about then

Agree0 Disagree0

Sounds like reply 2 and 3 come from down the M1

Agree0 Disagree0

Poster three, you say Colin has had no backing? you do not need money to play players in their rightful positions and pick the same players regardless of form. He has lost the plot and if your happy with mid table hoofball go with Colin and watch his favourite club in League one.

Agree1 Disagree0

Lets look at the facts - Warnock is rubbish - we are back from where we were wnhen SG went - look at the mans ramblings he slates everything Leeds and blames everyone else for our shortcomings, the only positives that come out of the man are praising others especially Yorkshire clubs his beloved Sheffield and how wonderful Hull & Barnsley were when they played us - He's a person and the sooner he goes the better - I think Bates took him on because he knew he hated Leeds as much as he did

Agree1 Disagree0

Players are mostly decent enough. They just do not get used in their rightful positions often enough and team changed far too often. All the short loans do not help.

Agree0 Disagree0

Derby refused permission to take White on loan with a view to buy!
They will be back in the summer with a substantial offer!

Believable2 Unbelievable28

Good. he's garbage let him go

Agree1 Disagree3

Should of let him go, he has pace, and that's it!

Agree1 Disagree3

Said for some time he is not good enough. The only position you would think he could fill is full back. Unfortunately he is too light weight and gets turned too easily. Has difficulty using his pace from mid field and often goes down dead ends and cannot usually get to the by line. Get some money while you can.

Agree0 Disagree0

Good! Sell him! He is well & truly babba!

Agree0 Disagree0

looks like leeds united have been messed about then this season, keep in the league while fat cat business men make a few quid, with no intention of the team and the fans, if its true that gfh were just there to make a quick few quid, leave our beloved football club alone, go put your business ventures elsewhere, and stop messing with our hearts and dreams, the only important thing to us fans is what happens on the pitch, either invest in the team or let someone who will come in. hx white

Believable53 Unbelievable6

Not so bothered about them making a quick buck if they've managed to get the club out of Bates's grubby mitts and are more open to listening to offers for the club and not upsetting potential buyers through arrogance and rudeness!

Agree2 Disagree0

Or they could play a really active role like the muppets that brought Forest. No matter what happens here (I will remain a supporter through thick and thin), I look at them and think how much worse it could be.

AussieMOT

Agree0 Disagree0

Maybe they are only in for the business, but they only way they can make a big profit from us is by getting promoted, so everybody wins really.

Here's a whisper I heard.
Adam Pearson, a local guy with Leeds United history, has some interesting and V V wealthy Yorkshire business associates. One of these is Peter Wilkinson, a self made multi millionaire who has supportd Pearson in the past when he had Hull City. (He helped out with funding players). Wilkinson is a Leeds fan and has had boxes at Elland Rd for years. I've heard it said that he would like to take a stake in the club, it would probably cost less than one of his yatchs.
This could be a fantastic result, at least two Leeds fans dipping into their pockets to give us our dignaty back and take us back up. I'm not forgetting that they'll want to make a profit but I think we would all expect that. The time is right for this to happen

Wilkenson was about when we nearly said goodbye to our club. He wasn't interested then!
Such a big Leeds fan he would have let us go out of business.

Agree0 Disagree1

I personally know Peter Wilkinson and this is complete tosh. He does not invest in football. Ever. He is lufc but will not spend money on it. He used to have Lion cabinets for those old enough to remember.

Agree0 Disagree0

Pearson talks a good game but never delivers, he's only in it for what he can make for himself. He had left Hull City by the time they spent money to get promotion to the premier league and did nothing for Derby County. |He bought Hull FC Rugby League Team promising big spending and has failed to deliver and is now involved in a major ruck with Hull City owner Assem Allam over non payment of Stadium Management Company costs. We get involved with Pearson at our peril. Let him buy his first love, Huddersfield Town instead.

Agree0 Disagree0

Peaarson just another risdale he everybody else us money just ask derby you sack him for nearly sent them like portsmouth are now

Agree0 Disagree0

Would welcome a new Wilkinson to start a new era at Leeds

Agree0 Disagree0

Remember what a man who revelled in being called leeds uniteds number one fan did to our club

Agree1 Disagree0

Pearsons town to the core, only interest in you lot is to make a bit of cash from buying and selling, fact

Believable13 Unbelievable54

Agree2 Disagree0

Agree1 Disagree0
