I said a few days ago bamba would be a good punt he could be our piece in the jigsaw at the back! Mot

Good player apparently.

Described as a ball playing CB by the Leicester fans I work with.

I see that Cambridge United tonight did not swap their shirts with the other team - they did not want to devalue their achievement

Believable0 Unbelievable0

They woulda been charged £40 for the replacement according to the commentators. £40 is still nothing to a league 2 player

Agree0 Disagree0

Why on earth would you want a Man U shirt, I would rather haves piles! Once upon a time a friend of my brothers bought my nephew a shirt for Christmas, obviously it was used to wash the car with, Jack overcame the trauma and I'm happy to report he has grown in a Leeds fan. Hopefully Cambridge will finish the job at Old Trafford.

With the acquisition of Bamba we now have in my opinion the strongest set of central defenders for 12 years.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

You mean since roque jr? he was so good he counted as two central defenders

Good post surrey sometimes it takes events out of our hands to give a clear vision of where we are at and stand back to see what needs doing to move forward again! Mot

Okay so after having a few days to reflect I have a few things on my mind. I would like to retract my statement that the FL is corrupt because I don't think it is I just think Harvey and one or two are crooked, not all of them. Now after the events of today I'm actually starting to believe that this could be a good thing for us! Cellino is going to stay around Europe watching football so he can re evaluate how to run a club and also scout potential players! Umbers seems like a Leeds guy through and through who can fit the bill in taking over day to day runnings. I think these next few months will also be an indication of how Redfearn wants to run the team because I feel Cellino has Been too involved and were actually doing alright this month now Redfearn has adapted. This could actually be a blessing in disguise and cellino confirmed the club is in a healthy state to continue! This ban could do wonders next season in terms of signings, and how cellino runs the place, that is if we stay up which I'm confident we can do! MOT

I suppose the good thing resulting from Cellino's suspension is that none of our good young players should leave as I would assume authority to endorse exits still rests with Il Duce.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

He's only at the end of a phone, Jump. unless the FL are tapping that as well. !

Apologies if I've missed it, but what's happened to the petition we signed saying that the FL was victimising us?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

It was handed in a few weeks ago, and I now presume it has pride place in the WC.

Agree0 Disagree0

Mmmm. thanks Andy. Didn't see any publicity about it. thought it might have been the sort of thing Sky etc might have seized on.

Agree0 Disagree0

I think if the petition was anti-Leeds, the press would have been on it like a tramp on a sandwich. As it is, they might want to keep this one under the radar. Look at all the fuss they kicked up about Wigan's fans being ripped off at ER. I agreed with their plight to be fair but it said nothing about how many times clubs jack up their process when we're in town for their cup finals. Anyway, have a good weekend boys and girls, I'm off out on the tiles tonight whilst Mrs Mick's at the Gala.

MM

Agree0 Disagree0

At the time the petition was handed in it was reported on radio, they also interviewed the lads whilst they were handing it in. MOT

Agree0 Disagree0

It was handed in, there was a video clip that the YEP did, it was all done peacefully by a generous crowd of leeds fans, as usual the FL have not acknowledged or commented on it since as it's not in there best interests.

Agree0 Disagree0

funny if you look at Saturday's starting line up how many new faces from the 15 signing at start of season THREE .KEEPER COOPER BELCCISUI
.WOTTON TAYLOR BYRAM RUDI MURPHY COOK MOWATT MORISON already at leeds makes you wonder

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I can see that you're trying to make a point, I'm just struggling to see what your point is?

Forgive me, I'm 40 and clearly too old to understand you.

Agree0 Disagree0

Bit harsh some of the players brought in have been very good, annucci is a great player shame the team let him down a little, he is prem class and could make the step up

Agree0 Disagree0

Way too old mate
It's merry go round.
Who do you like sort of thing
The lucky win

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2015 19:22:27
what one is saying isn't it funny that after all the signing we end up with most of the players already being here

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2015 19:32:58
and I never ran others down just what I saw and I would have ant up front not morison also I would of taken off mowatt because he looked tied we all have a right to free speech . some agree some don't that's life the main thing is we won

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree in genral but do rate the keeper and the forward the others are so-so and not much better than what was here or coming through

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Jan 2015 15:36:38
yes I agree it's like they gone off the boil perhaps not up for the fight but it's a turning point but we do need goals we get on top but don't score start getting two or three and then will climb to top 10 maybe higher . hopefully loanees are what nr wants not mc
anyway great to win

Agree0 Disagree0

Redfearn said he couldn't include Sloth as the team were apparently playing well and he couldn't change it, so why has Sloth been dropped for Mowatt when Neil publicly stated how well Sloth had played in his return against Sunderland and Bolton.

Bit of a hypocrite. Hope Antenucci returns ahead of goalless Morrison. Good too see Austin and Murphy playing well

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I would also add that Redfearn has gone on record stating that fan have been too critical of Murphy. Don't get me wrong, I think that Redfearn has done well building Murphy's confidence and bringing him back into the fold but Redfearn must not forget that it was him that removed Murphy from the squad as he was a regular pick under Hockaday and Milanic (although I accept he should not have been)

Agree0 Disagree0

Morison must be kept. He is enabling us to play compacter. He may struggle to find back of net but he is doing well in other areas of play. Means qe have a strong bench. No bad thing.

Agree0 Disagree0

Whose in the team to score???

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeah a strong bench with a head coach that can't use it properly.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Jan 2015 20:26:38
He will learn eventually I hope how best to use the squad and bench.

Agree0 Disagree0

Redders will never drop any of his Golden boys. Mowatt is never a left midfielder, he doesn't have the pace, but expect him to keep his place for Huddersfield. Montenegro should get a game out wide.

Agree0 Disagree0

The late GREAT Gary Speed played on our left and he was never quick. But he gave that great midfield ballance.
