Leeds now favourites 2 sign Billy Sharp. !

Believable40 Unbelievable31

Would love to see Billy Sharp at Leeds. Would only be financed by selling McCormack imo

Agree3 Disagree3

Favorites in front of who? Didn't know we was chasing him, are we?

Agree0 Disagree0

Celtic and doncaster

Agree0 Disagree0

Lets go for Matty Fryatt from Hull City he, s prolific & cheap.

Agree1 Disagree0

Tell you what, I'd love him at Leeds this guy can score for fun with the right service.

Agree0 Disagree0

I for one wouldn't b happy with sharp he's to similar to what we have already . r vaz with pace strength and at 6.2 he'd b much more of a force, he can also play on the wing. cw

Agree0 Disagree0

He wants to come to Celtic

Agree0 Disagree0

Sounds like Big Mac is hinting at getting a winger within the remainder of the window now

Agree0 Disagree0

Fryatt was prolific at Leicester but prone to injuries since his arrival at Hull so that's probably why he could be cheap.

Agree0 Disagree0

Please no. he's no better than what we have, there's a reason he can't get a look in at Southampton you know.

Byram to play rm/winger when he comes back peltier to stay

Believable40 Unbelievable19

Yeah do think when he, s fit again byram will play right wing position, just need him back playing again now, and a new left winger and we, re sorted.

Agree1 Disagree0

Why are people thinking byram will be a winger? Yes he's great at full back but has he even played on the wing for us? Just because he's a food right back doesn't mean he can play on the wing. Its a completely different position. Not having a go - just asking.

Agree2 Disagree1

Can't see it happening with pelts been linked with a swap for mills. Then we would only have Thompson at right back. Unless he plays lees right back Pearce and mills and warnock with wooton as back up. But looks unlikely to happen. dan the man

Agree1 Disagree1

BMC has dismissed the mills for pelts rumour on radio Leeds tonight. He said it was the first he had heard of it!

Also Byram has been allowed to move forward in past so I think he would do a great job. He won't be far from returning as long as he gets back fit

Byram has played wing before actually, you can tell with his composure on the ball he can play anywhere. BMD has already stated he can put him anywhere, even CM. He definitely has the skill factor, bit thin for a CM but that's irrelevant. He'll be quality on the wing because he'll track back unlike most wingers.

Leeds are NOT talking to Bolton re a deal Mills for Peltier, this is nonsense.

Believable57 Unbelievable18

. and you know this is nonsense how?
I believe it is quite credible and fairly logical. Plus, it's been reported on new***w. That makes it a little more credible than your claim, don't you think.

Agree1 Disagree2

Bmd said it was the first he heard of it when asked today.

Agree3 Disagree0

BM has just dismissed it.
MOT
SA

Agree2 Disagree0

Jaymerlin I await your apology

Agree1 Disagree0

Behave mate, was only stating what is in the media on a "rumours" site! He never said FACT, FACTOID, FACTAMONDO! Ha ha Why do we all fall out all the time let's be one! Rumours seen in the media are shared on this site to let others know what is out there if they haven't seen it themselves

Agree1 Disagree1

Stanners, if BMC says it is not true then I believe him over any rumours on here or any other site, but when someone tries to poopoo what you have said just because they have read it elsewhere makes them an arse not me. We should all listen to what comes from the Leeds camp and forget cheap tabloid rumours and why you may stick up for someone who is wrong beats me. Why not poopoo jaymerlins comments?

Agree1 Disagree0

I aren't "poopoo" ing anybody, I am just saying all chill out and stop biteing at each other, I aren't sticking up for anybody, he might have posted his comment before Brian dismissed it, and to be fair he didn't need to bite at your comment like he did, he read something just like you did, just a different source! Calm down

Agree0 Disagree0

Not wanting to call anyone a liar or anything, but sometimes managers etc have to say things to protect what is going on behind the scenes. How many times does a manager say "X isn't being sold" "we aren't looking at why player" then lo-and-behold X is sold and why comes in :)

Midds placed a forth offer for Ross, its on TV.

But on OS Nigel Gibbs states that; “The season before last he got double figures and there is no reason why he can’t in this team. I’m sure that he will keep creating the chances and he will also take them"

So Ross is defo NOT for sale!

Believable39 Unbelievable3

On OS that BMc confirms discussion of Contract with McCormack.

Agree1 Disagree1

So all we need now is to hear that Ross is not prepared to sign a new contract and we sell him to Middlesbro for 2£ mill to fund the 3 signings we still need to make us a team capable of challenging for promotion. Hope not but in the end money talks.

Agree0 Disagree0

Cheer up reply no2, jeeeez! Love optimism! Love it! Love it!

Agree0 Disagree1

Apparently Leeds are in talks with Bolton again over Mills, but this time it includes a Peltier swap deal! Interesting, if byram isn't far away then it makes sense because Sam would be first choice at rb with Wootton and Lee's who can play there, aswell as green if need be!

Believable11 Unbelievable24

22 Aug 2013 13:10:02
Leeds and Bolton are in talks over a swap deal involving peltier, and in other news vaz te is believed to be on the radar as well as sharp on loan. Maybe the 2 million sale of Ross could finance all of this.

Believable5 Unbelievable27

22 Aug 2013 13:07:19
apparently swap deal talks involving pelts and Matt Mills underway

Believable2 Unbelievable23

Oh please let this be true, because Peltier is one of our worst ever signings (and there's been many)last week against Leicester he did a foul throw? that, s Sunday football standards, enough said!

Agree2 Disagree0

Agree about his performance in first two games, but against Wednesday was quality . Played with confidence and hardly out a foot wrong . Inconsistency is a major problem but he put the Wednesday winger in his pocket and his distribution was a lot better .

Agree1 Disagree0

So what are you saying? keep him? please please not.

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree with last post, confidence is everything, this lad can do a job for us, don't forget a strong midfield makes a defense look good because not too many questions are asked of them, we don't have that just yet, he has done a job for us and although there are better out there we are mid table championship side at the moment all area's need improving then you will see who the week links are.

Peltier-Mills swap deal? What are the thoughts on this?

Believable6 Unbelievable20

Great swap, and if it doesn't come off, a couple of pints & a bag of pork scratchings will do, and good riddance, harsh but fair, as you can tell i'm not a fan of him.

Boro back in today with a 4th and final bid for Ross thought to be £2m

Source - sly sport website

Believable23 Unbelievable16

Will be very interesting to see if we sell Ross. If we turn this down then it will prove we do not need the money. If we do sell, then invest wisely on 2 players. 1 million each, bring back becchio on loan for the season and buy a wide side player quickly. Bring back Gradel and Vaz te?

Agree0 Disagree1

Hopefully they will take Becchio from Norwich and leave McCormack with us.

Agree0 Disagree0

Talk Sport this morning referring to Becchio off to Midds in a deal. You can forget any talk of ROSMAC going anywhere. Move on please or simply catch up

Agree0 Disagree0

Interesting dilemma as I posted on banter
Mackay steven and sharp for ross!
Any takers
Sorry. Love his passion and the odd cracking goal but time to go rossi boy

A mate who is a place fan just text me to say he's heard a rumour that Yannick Bolasie is joining Leeds, he says he's not sure if it's a loan deal or permanent. Any thoughts?

Believable4 Unbelievable26

22 Aug 2013 12:02:55
I would say they need him more than we do at the moment.

Agree1 Disagree1

Awesome player not going to sign though!

Agree1 Disagree0

I've got a mate who's a Haddock fan and he says he'll give us sick squid for Rosco!

Agree0 Disagree0

Wow that would be amazing fingers crossed!

Agree0 Disagree1

Having a laugh he's Palaces best player

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Aug 2013 17:00:36
I'd be surprised if this happened. Although he was left out of the squad for the Spurs game & isn't injured. hope it's true.

Cardiff and leeds are looking at Vaz Te whilst boro are now turning their attention 2 luciano becchio after no luck with Ross McCormack!

Believable24 Unbelievable6

Vaz Te would be good but I can't see it happening now, unless we move some of the dross out and then, who knows what's in BMcD and NG's heads.

That would have been a better option from the start for them I would have thought

McDermott looking at Sharp on a season-long load!

Believable10 Unbelievable7

Thats just out of order, bmd should not be throwing his load about. Especially not for a full season

Agree0 Disagree0

Ive posted this loads.
sharp would be natural goalscorer and stay up front. shrew leeds

Agree0 Disagree0

Some load that must be ha ha

Agree0 Disagree0

In all seriousness though that's a good move if it comes off

Just heard on a certain sports breakfast show that becchio on his way to Middlesbrough, obviously not going to get a look in at Norwich

Believable15 Unbelievable4

On Norwich forums that Beccs is not likely to get a look in at starting this season and may be on his way to the boro for £1.8m
Hopefully their interest in Ross McD will stop if they get Beccs

Agree0 Disagree0

Just goes to prove, once and for all, that we were stitched up by Sir Ego.

Can't tell you how glad I am that he and his sidekick, KB are out of LUFC.

Becchio will end up at boro.

Gary mckay-steven and billy sharpe to be leeds players by the end of the month. Bm said to have held talks with southampton last week about a season long loan deal. Mckay steven priced at 850k looks viable and within bms strict budget.

Believable39 Unbelievable14

I would love GMS to join, fantastic player with a lot of potential, and at that price he really is a bargain! However 'strict budget'? We have spent £1million on a player for the first time in 8 years, Wootton has been reported to cost around the same (but I question this) and all GFH have asked for is for Brian to lower our wage which stood at £15m BEFORE Wootton! Seems fair to me.

Agree2 Disagree1

Somehow I cannot see Sharp coming to us. He has openly stated that he hates Leeds. Don't want another scenario like we did with Warnock. How he ever got the managers job is beyond me!

Agree2 Disagree2

Would love to know where sharp said he hated leeds?

Agree2 Disagree0

Billy sharpe agreed to join us when Beckford was about to be sold to Newcastle, he even signed a Leeds shirt for a fan in his local
