I can't see him walking away from his massive contract and who would buy a forward who does not score goals

Did he ever arrive?

God I can't believe he's on 25k a week and has not scored 1 single goal, that is just appalling. Hope he and the rest of McDonuts rubbish goes, no passion and no bloody hope.

Ah well, never mind.

Who's going to want him?

Does any 1 know how long his contract is for?

It's not Hunt's fault he gets 25k a week. He has just accepted what's been offered. It's the fault of those who offered him such a ridiculous pay packet.
We need to move him on. (If someone will take him of course.)
Let's get some real quality in!
Come on Cellino, clear the deadwood and take us back to where we belong!
MOT

I can't understand why footballers can't be finished on capability? For example, if you are a poor performing teacher or mechanic you can be dismissed on capability, why can't you dismiss a football striker who cannot score?
Agree2
Disagree0
That's living in an ideal world I'm afraid Pablo football and the contracts are so different from the real world. I do feel for the guy though because he is a good pro and wants to score and play well for us its not like he's sulking like some do

Did nt know he had been here

Hunts rumoured 25k a week came from white leeds radio interview with cellino who got a lot of facts wrong because he also said cost us 1.8 Mill it's Kebe on 25 k a week with a1.8 mil buy fee though hunt is on at least 17k and tbh we can't sell him all we can do is pay him off

Over his dead body I think you'll find. He is desperate to put things right and on nowhere near the sum reported by a tired and emotional Massimo.
Agree0
Disagree1
Doesn't matter what he is earning he has done nothing this season.
we need him out of here and the wages freed up for someone who does give a rubbish, rather than sitting at home on nearly a million quid a year.
This is the reason will not be here next season.

"Over his dead body I think you'll find. He is desperate to put things right and on nowhere near the sum reported by a tired and emotional Massimo"
Total crap, he has done nothing all season and I can't see him handing his wages back in whatever he is on?
Sooner he is gone the better. Even if he is on ONLY 17K a week it's still over three quarters of a million pounds a year!
How can anyone justify that wage bill for someone who hasn't scored a single goal?
Agree1

For that aquisition alone bmd should be shown the door, not least kebe, stewart, to name two more

cellino was seen in a hotel Norwich this week holding talks with Bradley Johnson and his agent. Would be a great signing if we get him.

Yawn. There's nothing more embarrassing than some of our fans begging for Bradley Johnson to be re-signed. What exactly made him in standout in the Championship last time?
Agree7

I doubt he even knows where Norwich is.

Hope not think we should not start signing ex players, after all they deserted us didn't they
Agree5
Disagree0
Didn't rate him that highly when we had him last time. Think we could do better then him tbh

Norwich having Leeds's old midfield and possibly being relegated this season tells me thing about our old players
NOT GOOD ENOUGH

There's one Ggod player player who went to Norwich and I'd take back in a breath, Snodgrass!

Wow massimo been a busy chap since arriving back in leeds Wednesday Ben meeting Parkin signing chicks meeting bard Johnson maybe snods andn how's on was there too
Agree1

Meeting Delia to understand how to make Yorkshire Puddings!

Still rate beckford as one of four, snodgrass, howson, johnson if we still had these plus gradel we might be in the premier league with grayson as manager

Brown to be offered yet another season
Believable57
Unbelievable90
Why not! Not pretty but reliable!
Agree6
Disagree1
Would be good if his legs hold out. He has been consistent in every game he has played this season and puts a lot of his team mates to shame. We are much more solid in the middle when he plays. Interestingly we have played better when Tonge and Brown have played especially as they are usully talked down by the fans. Far better at this moment in time than Murphy and Mowatt.
Agree6
Disagree1
Why? It will just be another waste of wages when he spends most of next season on the sidelines after we've brought in better. Yes he's played well the last few games, but he was only a stopgap signing when we had Bates in charge. Surely we have more ambition than this?

If it says that in the snail then it is totally untrue and won't ever happen.
All the snail care about is filling it's middle pages with royal photos, and the rest with total garbage and lies, yet again.

Carbone to take over youth set up. Expect redders to take up first team coaching role and unsurprisingly cellino with be saying ciao to bmd very shortly. MOT
Believable60
Unbelievable24
Think its more likely that Carbone is here for the first team coach's position, soon to be made vacant. For all those who say we'll never get someone to fill a coaches role because who would want to be less than a manager, I say we'll find someone who is used to operating that way and there are plenty of them just not the big names Leeds fans think we deserve.

As in, Benito Carbone, former Bradford man who I do recall scored some absolute belters. against us. Won't hold that against him. Terrific player, he was.

Italian friend has told me that his family in Italy have heard that Massimo Cellino has been in contact with David O'Leary regarding LUFC Managership.
Anybody else heard this?
What a team, Massimo and O'Leary, hope it is true!

What's wrong with people. O'Dreary, the man whose head cannot fit in his own office and who squandered the golden millions, replaced Gray at the height of achievement and then wrote about how it all went wrong. Utter failure elsewhere demonstartes all you need to know about his managerial ability.

He didn't do all that badly at Villa. although he did spend a fortune and get nowhere, that's not really any different from any other Villa manager of the Premiership era.
