Ausman, you're on here more than I am, so I don't know what you are waffling on about me for. haha the irony!

I am personally sick of all these people thinking this and that!
The truth is we need massimo defo and hopefully he will get rid of bmc .
Please tell me a manager who as got such a bad record as him and asnt been sacked?
Nice people win you nothing
Please tell me if he gets sack ( that he deserves) and then cellino spends ten million with new manager who will remember him in two months?
In football money talks and fans are fickle especially at Leeds!
Come on you bmc fans tell me yeh but he's a good guy!
Results game end off .

He might have fared better if he had had financial backing.I honestly think we had a better side under Simon Grayson, but with Bates' tight fisted attitude to buying players and the willingness to sell our best players whether they liked it or not, has made it very difficult to have a settled and successful side.

i think bmd is as good as any manager in this league . you give him the 10 mil and he will get us promoted .
who would you get as manager instead? I can't think of anyone and we are not going to get anyone in a job unless from a lower league . so it will have to be someone that's been sacked or inexperienced .

Agree0 Disagree0

Not that we were good enough anyway but reading winning today is the final nail for play off dreams.
Roll on the summer, 2 miracles, no rain and Leeds will sign some players.
Let's just hope this complete mess is well and truly sorted and we can actually mount a proper challenge next season without any excuses. shrew leeds

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Our squad simply has a total lack of quality we were never contenders for promotion this season! Bit worried that Don C is struggling to sell Callgeri? Also why are we in such a financial mess again? Why are GFH loaning money from Bates and Don C just to pay the wages? Roll on next season MOT

Agree0 Disagree0

17 Feb 2014 12:16:30
we are not any worse off than last week really .yes reading won but whos to say we won't win the game in hand . too negative, its not over til the fat lady sings . there's teams above us in and around that top 6 that I expect to bottle it like derby, burnley, brighton and ipswich . they will all drop points its just a matter of us getting some points when they do drop them. bmd will get us firing .

Who the hell we have better than Becchio other than Ross! Stevie Wonder would play for me before all the other rejects we have. Come back home Becchio! We still love you at Leeds. MOT.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Bechio wanted away and he went, if he was playing for norwich he wouldn't want to come back would he??

LEAVE HIM ROT ON THE BENCH @ NORWICH

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed013's Note - I don't think he makes the bench Andy}

Unfortunately Becchio made that choice, and he's probably earning a lot more money not playing for Norwich than he did when he was playing at Leeds.

Some people are happy to do that, we don't need players like that, though, we have enough of them already.

Agree0 Disagree0

16 Feb 2014 15:02:42
I have posted loads of times about this but we have to reduce the playing staff to about 25 from 35 and only then will we sign a keeper a central midfielder and a striker.
In the summer 10 more out and 10 new faces in.
It's all about finance.
We are doing our brains in today and the rot must stop.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Brininging in so many players never works. Just look at Sunderland at the start of the season, QPR in the premiership last year etc.
5 out, 5 in. No more.

Agree0 Disagree0

Definitely right Survivor. First team squad of 25 plenty. After that rely on Academy teams to fill gaps. 2teams of 11 plus another keeper and couple spare is plenty! Having said that the last programme shows 32 including Green & Varney who will go in summer. It also includes Chris Dawson and Eric Grimes who are really youth/Academy players. So there are really 28 1st team squad.

Agree0 Disagree0

10 out 5 in for me. i'd prefer to see us with a smaller but better squad than our current format

Agree0 Disagree0

16 Feb 2014 13:40:43
Anybody seen survivor or mad mick?
Havent seen them for ohhhh bout a minute!
Ed. simon grayson got a nose bleed at 5th or 6th. Way to amateur to get us promoted! He just runs out of ideas when it matters! Ask survivor and mad mick!
Dont know what survivor and mad mick think, but, looks like the general feeling of most on here is that, when we get promoted, ( next year ). Only, mcc. Mow and byr will actually make the team. that's a bloody lot of buying and selling.
Anyway. Role on approval. Good luck team for remainder of season and also mcd, hope we have a good run in and he keeps his job.
Im off to look for survivor and mad mick, i'm worried about them.

Talking of missing people whatever happened to john fitz? In these times of clouded confusion an overheard whiper as fitzy climbed over a Thorpe arch wall could clear everything up in seconds!

Agree0 Disagree0

Not been on here all afternoon sunshine. Are you missing me? I would refer to you by your name but obviously you aren't brave enough to put yours. I don't claim to know everything, nor do I post on here that much. I always sign off and am accountable for my posts as many others are on this site. What are you going to do when it's registered users only?

Mad Mick

Agree0 Disagree0

Y is everyone so obsessed with this sign off name stuff, so what if some people don't have a sign off name as you'll notice I don't and that's got nothing to do with being brave. I just don't like signing up to every site I visit, my email accounts are riddled with spam as it is I don't need my info getting passed on to any more companies. btw m not the op

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed013's Note - I am signed up to the site for the correct score competition and have never had any spam from it}

Would a sign off name attract spam?

LMFAO be brave put a name to your comments, gives you an insight to whom ya can and cannot trust?

NO BRAINER

Agree0 Disagree0

Haha why do you think websites want people e-mail addresses, I should like to hope that most people online understand how online marketing works by now, its all about money.
Go read the T&C's fot this site and I think its the first or second line,

Please remember that any information you submit through the use of our posting forms and is subsequently posted on www.leedsrumours.co.uk becomes public information. You should exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information on www.leedsrumours.co.uk.
and Andy you think that a little blue name below a comment gives you you confidence to trust that person haha

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - we don't spam people. We have to give that warning by law, not because we want to spam. In time all these sites will be registered users only just like all other forums already are. The only reason we started moving over to registered users is to run competitions, as we can't find any other way to ensure the right person gets the prize and we don't want to just reward random people who come along and don't join in the convos.

It seems you need to realise that it is difficult to have a conversation with a no name, because you simply don't know which comments are them and which are some other no name person. It is not difficult to understand, that is why forums all employ a log in.}

APOLOGY

Hey guys, apology time. I called Survivor a crank and it appears I am wrong. I also said that if I was wrong I would unashamedly apologise, which I am doing right now.

The reason I believed he was a crank was simple. There are a lot of 'my best mates, father in law's auntie Mabel makes tea at ER' types on here claiming to know every conversation that went on at ER, so when genuine people do come along with inside knowledge it's hard to believe. You kind of wonder why they would spend time on this site when they must have a lot better things to do. However, there are genuine people out there who wish to connect with the fans and I now believe Survivor is one of them and I thank him for this.

I have explained to Survivor that anything I have said was all in the name of banter and to be fair to him he has taken it all in good faith. I also sincerely hope he continues to post on this site what he knows. It will be good to have genuine information.

I'm off out now for lunch with Mrs Mick and the little uns and will be ordering off the specials board. humble pie! It could be worse, Andy's got to show his arse in the pub!

Anyway that's enough of the love in, people will think I've gone soft!

Cheers all.

It's not about people it's about where Leeds United belong and how we get there.
I've been dead lucky as Leeds have done nearly everything and I've been there and seen it all and now we must rebuild and let the new fans enjoy it all.

For us fans who can remember nights in the nou camp it seems like a life tym ago when we away to yeovil in a sunday leugue style stadium

Agree0 Disagree0

Nice one.
I always thought it was nous camp but now they call it Camp Nous.
Do you remember the basket ball stadium in the main car park.
Best day I had there was with about 5000 fans supporting Leeds against a Stutgart.
Eric Cantona brought his own fan club from the south of France .
We need days like back ASAP.

Ok sorry but I love this site.
If by some miracle I can afford to bring back your radio station which will be difficult as it lost 'loads of money'
I would love to promote this site but can it handle everything I can do.
I'm looking at 10 times the current following.
Please help me.

{Ed013's Note - Yorkshire radio was popular in Leeds, but only for people with DAB. It would need to be on FM to get the publicity and involve the whole of Yorkshire in my opinion. I am not sure how teaming up with the likes of Real, Minster, Hallam etc would work. I suppose they are all established in their areas, but a radio station for the whole of Yorkshire would be good}

Glad to see the back of it was best when every game was on 96.3 back in the day . yorkshire radio was bates way of controling even the way we listen to are club pointless drain on resoursrs

This is just how I feel

Dont care who owns the club - as they are only in it to make money

Dont care about who the manager may be in the future - but give Brian a chance with some money to spend.

Dont care about the players - except the quality (keep them) the non performing players and dead wood need to go.

The only thing which is important is getting back to the promised land (Premiership) and staying there.

I would take being mid table in the premiership for 3 years. and building up from there

White 4 ever. at least another 40 years

Clearly Editor you are receiving a lot of grief from our fabulous supporters aimed at me so after I have kept my word to Mad Mick I will go back to doing my own thing with Leeds and not cause any more problems on your great site.
I did my best from the beginning to inform but clearly the fans don't want to know what's going on.

Survivor, just live up to your name and survive. The vast majority of the Leeds fans on here have appreciated some accurate info which has been in very short supply through some of the darkest days in our history. Don't stop now as we aren't out of the woods yet. Merv the swerv

Ed.
I really enjoy this site and I think that you a great job in very difficult circumstances (especially recently). But whose site is it? Yours and the true fans or Survivors/ Jeff's?
I think that most people on this site value your opinion more than 'Survivor's'. It's time you told this self-important nobodyto sling his hook and do whatever his alter ego, Walter Mitty, to do whatever he wants, whether this be to set up a rival website or open a radio station. I, for one, have had enough of his nonsence.
