ed do you know how long the work permits take normally and would rogers be available for palace {Ed001's Note - it depends on the DWP, they are usually resolved fairly quickly for footballers, normally within a couple of weeks at the most. Though possible appeals can extend the time to months in some cases. There is no way of knowing if he will be available.}

Will be decided next week according to my information

I wish people would stop being down about smith, I personally would love to see the lad back, if there is any chance to have a player back that you know full well loves Leeds and will play his best every game then take it. Why couldn't we take him on loan until end of season with a view for a permanent contract in the summer, give him a chance to prove his fitness.

Believable5 Unbelievable11

All this talk about Smith will always be hearsay! He won't come back, cos I reckon he is a crock and he knows this. He won't be the hero he once was, but to come back when he can't do it anymore will lose him any respect he has left with the fans. Just my opinion my facts.

Agree10 Disagree4

More like he`s too scared to face the fans

Agree10 Disagree2

Peter Lorimer and Eddie Gray both love Leeds and they're probably about as fit as Smith considering the football he's played recently - so why not give them a go?

Honestly, I can't believe how often this overpaid has-been STILL figures in discussions about prospective new signings.

Agree8 Disagree2

Why should he scared?
Simple as
He went to scum because they are only team who could pay all upfront!
He even gave Leeds his signing on fee to help out!
Get off his back! Ffs

Agree7 Disagree7

Great post,all this come ome smudger clan do me head in,if ehe was any good ed ave been snapped up ages ago,enough said.

Agree8 Disagree3

Get off his back? I haven't even started yet pal. Sick of the mere mention of his name and the usual sermon about how going to scum should make him some sort of saint. Load of tripe.

Agree7 Disagree5

Omg you all need to realize that there is no loyalty when it comes to sport these days its all about money so get off the fact Alan Smith went to a team you all hate so what it happens in sport every day so get over it.. And yes players get major injuries & find it hard to fit into certain teams playing styles so if he came back so what he was a very talented player so give him a chance & get off his back & anyone who wants him back. Its always nice to dream so let people do it dont be a loser by bagging out the player all the time..Plus if you all hate man u so much why dont you hate Pugh he is a Man u junior i can go on so get over it & support whoever is there playing for the club who obviously still has a long way before the have everything back in order to become a premier league club again.Let bates do what he is doing he has saved the club from the death so be gratefull that there still is a leeds utd not some re-formed club like there are all around the world

Agree1 Disagree1

He is not coming back enough said

12 days into jan and only got one player in on loan remember the barnsley game we need defenders and we have needed them for 12 months now this time last year we had agreat chance of going up if we would have sorted the defence out last year we was scoreing goals we can not out score teams this season

Believable2 Unbelievable8

Needed a defence for the past 4 years mate, theres nowt new there

Agree1 Disagree7

Twelve days into Jan - and nineteen to go. If the situation is still the same at the end of the month, we will all have every right to moan. Until then, just wait and see what happens.

Agree8 Disagree0

We were told after Burnley game that the break for the cup game would give us time to get players in before Palace game? where are those players - we've signed someone who is not even guaranteed to get a work permit! We will get the usual "we had deals lined up which did nto quite come off" line which we will hear repeated for the next two weeks!

Agree3 Disagree4

Well for one thing we are after Keith Andrews but he picked up an injury. Do you want us to sign him and ask him to play with one leg?

Agree3 Disagree0

The silence from ER is once again deafening. no new signings again this week despite what SG said last week, we are continually fobbed off with the same rubbish time after time. agree about andrews but its defenders that are the priority not mf's and wingers

Agree0 Disagree2

We need a strong central midfielder as much, if not more, than any defenders.

Agree2 Disagree0

Could do with lichaj back at the club! is he fit yet or still injured?

Believable5 Unbelievable0

Back in training was on the bench for a reserve game to

Agree0 Disagree0

I've heard a rumour that other right backs exist in football, and that just because one played on loan at a football club for a few months does not make them more qualified for the position.

Agree3 Disagree0

Lol quality above comment
