Just a tip for people who believe all the Byram rumours. Use a bit of common sense:
Man City: Zabaleta & Richards
Spurs: Walker & Naughton
Arsenal: Sagna & Jenkinson
Everton: Coleman & Hibbert
Liverpool: Johnson, Kelly & Wisdom
You see where I'm going with this? Everyone linked with Sam already have enough right backs. Just saying

I agree 100% with the point you are making but if I was Everton, I'd play Byram ahead of Coleman and Hibbert.

CRMD

Whose to say they wanna play him at RB? he's still very young and shows promise going forward he could turn out to be a class RM

Just because they have talent there, doesn't mean to say they don't want to add homegrown young talent for the future?

You would think the same about us but look at all our LB's and RB's

Would Byram make RM in any if those sides? Bearing in mind prem teams play 433 more often than not? Coleman is better than Byram at the mo. has a better end product and chips in with a few goals

top of the league after qpr game, for a couple of hours MOT

Great top for a few hours, job done and dusted then!.
anybody else think, whilst i believe bmd and gfh are building for the future and going the right way about it. if we were to get promoted to the so called ' promised land', we would be straight back down. we are not in a position to compete with the top five in the premiership, there is a massive gap in quality beween the championship and premiership. hopefully the way we are building we will go up in anothers years time with further investment so that we can build again. tewy

That's when the owners (who ever they may be at the time) have to pump the big bucks in. £3 or £4m in the Championship. £30 to £40m in the premier league. Leeds would attract the top players for sure, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Always remember 60% of the sides in the Prem just survive & there's 4 leagues into one. Leeds will survive & rebuild into a top 6 side within 3 years!

Reply to second post, let's just lose then so some leeds fans can carry on moaning and blaming bates, warnock and the main culprit tom lees FFS .lets go top if only for a while and keep the feel good factor rolling on

£30 to £40million is chicken feed compared with the income. £120m at minimum for the side that finishes bottom that's purely TV revenue. Gates will be up, cup run money not included in above. I agree we would almost need a new team but the cash will be there. JD

If clubs really do get all that money, where does it go? they seem to have more from parachute payments than promotion.

QPR finished bottom and from TV deals including overseas they got £39m so idk where this £120m is coming from.

39m last season. 120 mil over 3 years outside top flight I think
