Simon Grayson has decided to go for Neil Sullivan as cheap and quick option for No.2. He feels Neil is still good enough to perform, but not as No.1 so he is trying to sign either Shay Given on loan or David Gonz lez

Just thought i would give you a heads up regarding alan smith.

To celebrate me and my wifes wedding anniversary, my father in law gave us a holiday to barbados. We were staying in the north of barbados which is called Benthams.

Me and my wife were walking down the beach last week, to go to one of the beach bars, and i couldnt believe my eyes when i noticed a certain person at the bar. No other than Jonathan Woodgate. I got talking to him and mentioned i am a big leeds fan and passed on that when he played for us, he was like our brick wall in the defence and that to have him back again would certainly bring that back.

We had been talking for a good 20 minutes and he offered to buy me a drink, to which i accepted, my wife had got so bored of waiting for me she decided to go back to the hotel pool. I eventually decided to go back to the pool to see her, but just as i was leaving Woodgate said "our defence will be sorted next season, i will give you a hint im moving house up north" and winked at me. Make of this what you will but he seems to be on his way back home.

Going for a long sleep now only got back this morning but wanted to let you fellow Leeds fans aware.

MOT!

Saw Leon Osman in mersyside he sed he wants to go on loan to chapionship club he said Leeds is first on his list .

--

And why would he say he wants to go on loan to the Championship when there is premiership interest in him? Currently there have been confirmed bids from Norwich, the first rejected the second there hasnt been confirmation of the outcome. Hes been a solid starter for Everton for a number of years. Stupid rumour!

Any truth in Grayson being on SSN being questioned about old Smith and Woody, and saying that Bowyer is the real one to watch?

Also, Harry Kewell has spoken with both "the boys" and Leeds, and said something is in the pipeline? Yes he s**t on the club, but that was the club and its set-up then, not now! Going to Galatassaray not the wisest move, but now he's taken his payday maybe he's grown up and realises he owes Leeds!

No idea how true those rumours are, but personally, with all the names being passed around lately, it seems to me that anybody who was someone is being linked to us...Hopefully we are finally becoming a big draw once again!

From a source within the club:
the 2 players Grayson is close to having deals sorted for are Jason Brown and Lee Bowyer. Grayson also wants Alan Smith but his wages will not exceed £15,000 a week. He is also waiting for news on the availability of Westwood as Schmeichel is not prepared to accept a new deal and therefore the club is open to offers exceeding £2million. Robert Snodgrass has been valued at £4million by the club, whilst talks are ongoing about a new contract for Gradel. Gradel wants to stay but his agent is holding out for a deal of £23K a week which Bates is hasitant to pay.

what a load of tosh bates said in the last program a player who was on 4k was offered 7k in jan his agent wanted 11k we told him to find another club leeds utd will simply not pay that sort of wages, if the on a free they will probably pay a good signing on fee but if gradel want 23k he better hope we make the prem MOT
