Zan Benedicic is to sign on a Loan deal

Believable64 Unbelievable11

Well mc needs to stop going on holiday and get some of these transfers over the line with a week to go before season starts surely getting more quality into the side is more important then these holidays he keeps having.

Agree5 Disagree2

He has saved two weeks wages on both players ;) saved a good 20k i'd imagine

Agree1 Disagree2

According to people in the know he WILL sign early next week.

Agree1 Disagree0

Yeah that holiday to see his daughters graduation was well out of order. And going back to Miami to sort out moving his wife and family to Leeds. what a joke. I tell you she should do what she is told and no messing about. Billionaire Ha. don't make me laugh billionaires don't need holidays their entire life is a holiday. No he should be here in Leeds sorting out the most important thing in his and our lives that's for sure!

Agree3 Disagree2

Give the guy a break. He has been working practically non-stop since even before he took over

Nice to see someone taking their time trying to sign the right players . Seth Johnson anyone? Not to mention the dross that Colin n Uncle Fester lumbered us with!! Have Kebe and Stewart even got a team next year . If things aren't done in time for KO it will be disappointing but if we panic but 4or 5 wasters then the season will be a nightmare .

Just been up to t/p and I seen Jermaine Beckford coming out in a Porsche Cheyenne 100% not sure what he was doing their he wouldn't stop for a signature

Believable18 Unbelievable126

T/p to what is this you refer? now if you meant the training ground surely that's t/a as in thorpe arch. either way I was waiting for a beckford post. really don't see this 1 coming off!

Agree3 Disagree0

Please all bid a warm welcome back to the beckford rumour, absence really does make the heart grow fonder.
Ed; any sign of the gradel returning rumour while were at it?!

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed013's Note - Only Alan Smith I am afraid}

Cant have been too many at TA today as all the first team squad were training at ER. I know as half of them came in my café to buy their lunch and I got talking to a couple.

Agree0 Disagree1

T/P
Maybe he means thorpe park lol

Agree1 Disagree0

They still having to put their hand in their pockets for lunches? You must be making a small fortune :)

Agree2 Disagree0

No fortune mate, talking to one player (I won't mention names) he said they have always had to pay at TA the only reason that they were buying from me was because all the catering staff at ER that worked through the week have been made redundant.

Rumours going round that Byram and Murphy are unhappy at Leeds. hopefully its nothing.

Its funny that the team that put 6 past us last season, want a defender that was part of that defence. they must see some potential in him.

I only point this out as Lees has had a lot or criticism last year and everyone keeps pointing this out, however this is a team game, and all should be held accountable. Individual errors yes, fine, but somewhere along the earlier few minutes could have changed that that. Its the goalies primary job to keep the ball out, the defenders to stop the attacker and the midfielders to keep possession. Attackers score goals of course.

Any ways, ED should we start a poll as to who will be this seasons "Boo Boy" or is this a too negative discussion.

My money is on Morison ooohh, or even Hock-a-doodle-doo, Dawson maybe?

Believable10 Unbelievable10

{Ed003's Note - I'm sure one will be found in a few weeks.}

At last! Why has nobody explained the jobs of players in the different positions before now - it all makes so much more sense.

Now, if only I could work out the substitutes jobs I would understand everything.

Agree1 Disagree1

Noel Hunt is smiling ;)

Lees was subbed at 3-0 during that match.

Agree1 Disagree0

From the looks of things Nile ranger, however he could shock us all .

Agree1 Disagree1

Good luck Tom -a great servant who always gave 100 per cent, and was always playing in difficult circumstances. A very consistent and reliable performer until last season's 'Brian Bump.' He will come again, and I would not be surprised to see him resurface at a higher level than SWFC in the future.

Agree3 Disagree0

Was Lees released without a fee? Stuart Gray said there was no fee and we have said undisclosed. One thing is for sure at least he will get some coaching and taught to defend at Wednesday, which he never got from McDermott. good luck to him

Agree1 Disagree0

For the substitues job I would be saying to 5 of them, you do exactly what the guy you went on for did and the other 2, win the game for me boys (my game changers)

In all honesty Alfie, I don't quite know why I included that in the post, maybe a bit of a dim move from my part.

Or. I could be getting in early for applying for the head coaches job.

Agree1 Disagree1

Boo boy has to be austin only successful pens will save him

Agree0 Disagree1

Boo Boy will be hunt or Wootton

Agree1 Disagree0

Why do we have to have a Boo Boy. give them your support not only does it knock the confidence out of a player it effects the whole team. We have had to much of this in the past and only contributes to poor performances. Tom Lees for example confidence knock the hell out of him and now off. People slagging him off for moving what do you expect. He'll probably go on to be a top defender

Agree0 Disagree0

It was the Boo Boys who got their way in the end! Funny how SW said that they wanted Lee's because he is a ball player and can play it out of defence, according to the boo boys he can only play Hoof ball! I for one would have preferred him to stay ahead of Wootton (who we paid £1m for). However, let's get behind the team and not single one out for abuse. As previous poster said its a team game.

Agree1 Disagree1

The boo-boys will be Morrision and hockaday, got a video from millwall supporting mate of forest green fans ripping into hockaday which he found funny I found worrying. I have placed bet on hockaday to be replaced by carboni by feb good shout I think

Agree0 Disagree0

I'm not sure I can take another year of Austin, Hunt & Wootton, and I'm the tolerant sort -so God help them if they start this season like they ended the last!

Agree0 Disagree0

Spot on jester, show some support ffs, don't need boo boys

Agree0 Disagree0

Have to agree re boo boys to be honest. Lees has had his confidence knocked, in part by the reaction of us fans to a young player who was not the finished product -as has White; and as did Bradley Johnson before them -and he enjoyed 3 years in the Prem on the back of the boo boys! Howson used to get stick too. Part of me hopes Lees goes on to play at a higher level -just to stick one up at those who seem to make no allowance for young, developing talents playing under bloomin difficult circumstances (and under struggling managers).

Agree0 Disagree0

Austin has shown to be a class act at times, just needs to tackle more often and leave the Hollywood passing to Bianch ;)

Agree0 Disagree0

Bermondsey hope that bet didn't loose you too much.

just love LUFC supports putting bets on for our team to fail. person

Agree0 Disagree1

Leeds are in talks with Kieran Agard of Rotherham United

Believable72 Unbelievable16

This one keeps popping up but never seems to move any further on. I hope it's true as we need flair power and pace down the wing.

Agree3 Disagree1

The player has made it known he would love to be at Leeds as his a whites fan .
And yes everything about him is good young, pace and still time to grow as a player

Agree1 Disagree1

Yes, sounds perfect, but he wears 17, his birthdays on the 17th, he's got 17 tattoos, he's got 17 fingers/toes(had 3 chopped off in a footballing accident & he's got 17 brothers & sisters!

Agree0 Disagree2

Should be some news one way or another within a couple of weeks then!

Agree1 Disagree0

OK, clearly a player who has something -but is there any truth to the rumour at all? Have heard nothing from the likes of Hay to suggest this is anything other than wishful thinking.

Agree0 Disagree1

So are Bristol City

Agree0 Disagree1

Very overrated by some of our fanbase. One good season and if he's dropping back down to League 1, then obviously isn't as good as he's made out to be. Cellino already said he's not good enough for The Championship.
