Leeds Rumours Archive November 20 2012

So, according to yep we are chasing clint hill (34) Ryan Shotton (2apps this season) and kilgallon (been there done that, nothing special) we are roughly 6 players short of most squads already and this dross will do nothing but increase the numbers. quite clearly no Money and therefore no creativity or flair heading our way. Thought Green was awful on Sunday (international player !) most of the midfield are clones of each other, although thought rossco gave us something we've been missing when he came on. Our club is been flushed down the pan and gfh don't give me any faith with the urgency shown so far. between them and the bearded t*at we are a joke, feel sorry for warnock, I think he could have done well, given half a chance. Although he shouldn't persist with 3 at the back, big mistake.

Your talking crap..... Green was ok and Rosco was at fault for the goal, he didn't track back and it was his man that scored. I'm not saying its Roscos fault entirely, he wasn't match fit but get off Greens back!

Dont you think we need some experience at the back ? - White, Byram, Lees and Pearce havent got any between them!

Talking crap, sort of person who will never be happy, do one person

The midfield don't get chance to play the ball on the floor, it's route one all the time, Pass it back to Paddy and wack it up front .

For 1 shotton is alo better than white n killgallon is far from dross as he would b our main cb as hes better than pearce n lees n clint hill would b better than peltier so b 4 talking rubbish go learn the game. all 3 of them players u call dross are all rightly premiership players n the players we have u would b lucky 2 name 3 players who would do well in the prem, for me our only 3 decent players r austin, becchio n mccormack n if we had better mid than we have we would get the goals but we have greedy brown shooting when he should b passing n dumbass peltier who attacks more than defends n im sick of it now as paddy kenny is a top gk but our team r making him look average as we cnt defend! poor defence really poor mid decent st n gr8 gk so plz no more strikers mr warnock, becchio just needs better passes as hes proved he can score.

i agree the route 1 game is crap kenny kicks ball out comes straight back again puts leeds under pressuse we need to play ball back to front passing on floor using wingers .but i do agree green was the weakest link against millwall and i thought mc cormack look hunry and sharp

Can someone please enlighten to me as to what Green and Peltier have done wrong. I have watched virtually every game this season home and away and yes, there have been some individual errors but certainly nothing to warrant any abuse. Green to me is one of Warnocks better signings; Peltier has made an odd mistake but on the whole has played well at both full back and centre half. Pearce has been a solid defender but needs another solid partner alongside him. The problem to me is trying to accomodate too many players out of position. Tonge is not a left or right sided midfielder; if he is to play(to me he should be on the next bus back to Stoke) then it is in his own position at centre mid. White is a left back, not left midfielder so why try and accomodate him out of position- he is not that good he must be in the team, and whilst Becchio can score in and around the 6 yard box, that is no good for our current style of play

DONT YOU FEEL LIKE A MASSIVE CHUMP NOW - TAKE OVER DONE A MATTER OF HOURS AFTER YOU MOAN LIKE A GIRL

Real Madrid and Spain legend Raul is in talks about a January move to Leeds. He currently plays in the Qatar league and because the new owners are from near there they know him and have been chatting.

He's a big fan of english football and has always wanted to play here, he won't be on much money because he doesn't care about it. He remembers Leeds from the champions league and knows we are a big club.


DayAndNight {Ed013's Note - I was so close to putting this in banter!}

Ha ha, handball raul..... Come on man, as if!?! Sussexwhite MOT

This is the only 35 year old that I would welcome !! Why oh why are we constantly linked with #hit !

Yeah, and graham Taylor for manager with Carlton palmer as no2.. Don't forget Yakubu they also are in the region, and have been talking to LUFC.

New owners are from bahrain no? otherwise completely believable

Raul? He could be really handy in goal.the cheating person, they should have chopped his hand off.Leeds would have won champions league that year if it weren't for him.

I have heard Jose is coming so I cant see the two of them being at Leeds at the same time as Raul left when Jose joined

Don't forget David Beckham is back on the market :-)

poleon recalled back to leeds and neil warnock charged with improper conduct!
irish leeds fan!

Dom Poleon recalled from Bury, on OS, not before time!

Good news hope he starts saturday

The fact we extended the loan yesterday to recall him today further sign of bad management at LUFC.

The rest of the league will be shaking in their boots!!

Or it could just mean that Ross isn't as fit as they first hoped and therefore need Poleon back for cover with Varney out for 3 games.

Doubt the gaffer will even play him tbh

Andrew Haigh tweeting that GFH have said completion before the end of November. No doubt after loan window closes. Just great

Crmd

Who is Andrew Haigh?

Davids brother obv

And did he say WHICH November that would be??

A journalist. Well that wouldn't surprise me, just deny us even more of a chance of to boost our hopes up. Why do these "businessmen" do this to innoncent people who help the club and in their little minds they will not care one bit bout the club.

Andrew Haigh is a well known sports journalist

Crmd {Ed013's Note - He is a good bloke and a Leeds fan}

It's David and he has not tweeted anything

How many times have we heard this, its not happening!! The sooner people get this in their heads the better. MOT

Its Andrew Haigh and he as not tweeted any such thing,just another person spouting rubbish.

What is the problem now ? get it sorted ASAP,6 months to buy a football club is a joke

It was a tweet by Andrew Haigh regarding an article on GFHs investor relations page. It related to the joint statement about the papers being sent to the FA however it also stated that the deal would be done by the end of November. The article was subsequently taken down a couple of hours later. Have a look at Duncan Castles tweet on the 18th November about a 'ghost statement'.

Ryan

This was a statement from ghf which was removed from the ghf siteb5 mins later

I'll never understand how these official statements get pulled so quickly. The hoops that have to be jumped through in most organisations to get statements put out on a website, would have had to have gone through a number of people before publication... then get pulled five minutes later?


Something is definitely not right. I feel it i' me watter.

Well there you go, it did happen, we have money and transfer window still open, some people need to have faith

I think NW is doing the best he can with what hes got, to be fair he has brought in a lot of players, not exactly the players he wanted. If he had the money which fingers crossed he will in January he will turn it around. We cant just keep sacking managers, that wont help. He spent a few quid with QPR and got them up, it only takes one or two quality players for example Taarabt, keep faith and have patience fellow fans, the better football will come when we invest in the squad, we cant expect free transfers to play like Barca. I know he spent a little on Peltier and a couple of others but nothing compared to some. Positively MOT. Vinny.

Some truth in what you say but i also think your being blinded by the light slightly. NW has had more input than you realize and therefore needs to start taking some responsibility. Lets not forget Leeds is a big job for any manager and Mr Warnock quite happily took the job on under the bates regime. ( bit of more than he could chew?) MOT cautiously optimistic.

You're right, it only needs one or two quality players- Problem is everytime we get one bates sells them on. Hence why were in this mess.

Austin was a great signing but a lot of them have been a pile of doo doo.
I think we can say bang on that Paddy was a Warnock signing but... where is Gwyn Williams in all this?

Just think, we could have stuck with the existing squad and been sitting just above relegation positions instead of spending a pile of cash and ending up with a squad sitting way up there in... awwww fudge!
