TOTALLY GUTTED. Norwich are safe!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Personally i'm delighted for Norwich. With the exception of Johnson the other 3 served Leeds well and were instrumental in our promotion. So good luck to them and I for one wish they were still at ER, espescially Snodgrass. MOT

Agree0 Disagree0

OP here, I just wanted to see if our ex players would jump ship if they got relegated, seeing as they moved for "premiership" football :-)

Agree0 Disagree0

See your point but surely if they were going to jump ship it would be to another premier league club. They left LEEDS to further their careers. Even though i'm sure the cash plays a small part.

Don't think beckford will be joining anymore as he holding talks with Bolton!

i think if mcdermott decides to offer him a contract he would return to leeds though

Agree0 Disagree0

Told everyone that Thursday he's a money grabbing person anyway

Agree0 Disagree0

Why don't we forget Beccs, he's not coming back because obviously Macca dosn't want him.
As for him being a money grabber, he came into the game late via non league, he was in his late 20's when he was with us and Everton offered him silly money that would set him and his family up for life. He stayed with us when he could have gone in the January transfer window and could have sustained a bad injury which would have cost him his big chance during then till end of the season.
You are entitled to your opinion, but I think you are being very harsh on a player that saw out his contract and gave us some of our greatest moments when wearing our shirt. Good luck to him except when he plays against us.

MOT

Agree0 Disagree0

Wake up, we will have poleon in next season, he will do far better

Maybe all this talk of GFH having no money from here there and every fan who wants another excuse now that Bates has gone to stay away from ER. What I don't understand is if you don't want to come that's fine you really don't need an excuse, after all its your money your time and a lot like me are out of work, but I still will make every match I can afford. If it is that our core of Leeds fans is 20,000 then so be it, at least that's 20,000 strong backing the team as opposed to slagging them off and the owners! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, just don't find an excuse not to come, we still had some cracking atmospheres without you. I simply cannot fathom what negativity gains. We are never going to have Man Citys money. so what!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Well said pal. 20 thousand of us mot.

Agree0 Disagree0

That's backwards logic, we have no money, so you don't pay for match tickets? how does that work?

Agree0 Disagree0

See what you are saying. but you are missing the point a little. I am a london based leeds fan with little money. as a 30th birthday suprise myself and 8 mates (most of whom are Millwall) went to leeds to the bremner suite to see leeds hudderfield it cost me and my partner well over £400 plus what my mates spent to see a half arsed leeds team not even try. what a waste of money. I love the club and don't care if we are rich or poor win or lose but at least the team should love the badge. when I make the effort it would be nice if the team did. maybe that is why leeds fans have stay away?

Agree0 Disagree0

Second reply. please read original post again as you have clearly not got the gist of it.
Maybe it is not logic that is backward dohhh!

Agree0 Disagree0

We don't even have Hulls money!

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes I have got the gist of it. but you suggested that people will stay away because the owners have no cash. anyone who actually did for that reason is backwards!

Agree0 Disagree0

"every fan who wants another excuse now that Bates has gone to stay away from ER"

May have escaped your notice but Bates is still here, and until he leaves TOTALLY then fans will still blame his presence for staying away.

transfer window not open yet so how can we possibly start slating GFH? they funded last summers signings and let's be honest in january would you give funds who has pretty much already left for cornwall? give them a chance and see what happens in the summer. it can surely be worse than bates!

McDermott has given a list of 7 players I thinks these are realistic
Gork�s
Karacan
Cohen
Adomah
Phillips
Sharp
Church

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Matt phillips or kevin? would love matt but don't reckon that would happen so maybe have to settle for kevin

Agree0 Disagree0

Not realistic at all, Adomah and Sharp will cost at least £1m each and then for Karacan you're talking £4m+ we don't have that sort of money.

Agree0 Disagree0

We need to go for quality this year not freebies if GFH won't spend they just as well go. I'd push for stockdale/ McCarthy in goal. CB and a LB. Pacey winger (gradel perfect) a quality CM and Le Fondre and Sako with sharp be a perfect summer! Please spend Leeds!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Warnock is a fantastic LB, strongest in the league. agree we need an experienced head alongside Lees in the middle, but i'd focus on forwards/wingers for strengthening.

Agree0 Disagree0

just because there free doesn't mean there not quality players

Agree0 Disagree0

12 May 2013 08:58:33
IF the rumours about no money are true, we will need to look at free's and underpriced players such as:
Roger Johnson
Christophe Berra
Ebanks-Blake
Humphreys
Kasper gorkss
Brian Howard
