Much like Byram and Cook, Taylor probably sees himself as a premiership player and, in addition, his agent can make himself a packet. I've heard fans asking' who do you support Cellino or Taylor? ' It's not about that. If Taylor fancies his chances in the big league with the big money he will go. It's absolute rubbish to talk about loyalty. It doesn't exist anymore. Blaming Cellino, if Taylor goes, is way off the mark. If Taylor goes he will make a few comments about being sad about leaving but, after a while, like Cook, the truth will out. He just wants to leave - end of. That will continue to be repeated with the best of the academy graduates until we return to the premiership. As Cook said if you can guarantee me premiership football I will stay. Nobody can 'guarantee' that even Newcastle the odds on favourites to go up can't make that sort of promise. You have to get there or pay those rates.

I'd just keep hold of him for a year and let him go next summer, at least we'd still get compensation. Who knows we may have a miracle season and win promotion. I wonder if he'd still want to leave if that happened.

Spot on Hess. Nothing to add.

Agree Hess.
If I could triple or dipple my wage I'd be gone like a shot. Apart from personal development of playing against better players. No brainer. Not mc fault
We need to get up in prem though
Stoke spending $22 mill on a midfielder. We want some of that.

Agree0 Disagree0

agree spot on Hess only thing I might add is even in prem it don't stop. Saints players want to go to spurs, spurs players want to go to real madrid. Unless top three clubs it never stops but is the way, the higher up the club the better the player the higher the fee. I am just pleased the academy keeps churning them out, it is sad when they go but the money has keep leeds in buiness.

Agree1 Disagree0

Yep. Roll on top 3 of prem. Then we can nick every body else's gems!

Agree Hess if Taylor wants to go show him the door, the club is bigger than any individual. Nothing Cellino can do, Taylor's agent will pester him to move so they both get a good wedge, no blame attacd to them. Sell him now and get Rico Henry in to replace him asap. MOT.

Welcome to the madhouse Hemsworth.
With a bet like that I think you've come to the right place! 😜.

Good luck mate. U just never know!

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jul 2016 10:29:25
good luck with that, 33-1 each way with money back if leeds don't finish top four seems like a great bet to me.

Agree0 Disagree0

I've been saying all summer that we should sign Almen Abdi and now he's going to the Wendies. It makes us look stupid when they spend £3m on Championship quality like Abdi and Forestieri and we spend it on a L2 gamble. Hope Roofe proves me wrong obviously, but those two players get you in the top 6.

Roofe will be top quality.
He's not just about potential He's the real deal as they say.
But we still need some more defenders.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2016 21:53:11
We'll have to see, but all we've got to judge him off is L2 football, which is a very poor league. I can't see how Antonsson is considered a gamble, but Roofe isn't.

Agree0 Disagree0

Check out videos of Roofe. I know it's like a highlights show. But you can see he's got class. Great touch and awareness.
When Fowler came to us he didn't score enough but you could tell he was just better than the others. I'm pretty sure Roofe will be special ( please )

Agree0 Disagree0

Am I stupid? Heart ruling head again?
Just put a lady godiva on LU finishing in the top 6 this season at 4/ 1.

I'd say so Lucas them odds are not great.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2016 19:31:49
If your backing Leeds for top 6 at 4/ 1 you might be better to back them for top Yorkshire team at 9/ 2 that would be logical.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2016 20:09:51
Wex
What about them Wendies though?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2016 21:13:57
If you're betting on top 6 your competing with wendies so I say it makes sense to be betting on top Yorkshire rather than top 6 when odds are very same.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jul 2016 12:19:26
Lucas. I'd say find a better bookies. Those odds are pants.

If the new leeds shirt that has been 'leaked' is so snug then we need to get munching some salad and get to the gym - thinking I am going retro personally😜 Up the whites and down the pints (of water - but only if you wear the new shirt! ) .

27 Jul 2016 13:39:07
hope they come in 'fat boy' size or I will never fit.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jul 2016 15:06:30
Just seen the new home Leeds shirt and. hate it, what is going on with that collar?

All about opinions and it is subjective I know but doesn't do it for me so will be buying the away top which looks good.

people keep going on about the snug fits as well but they are made by Italians so their sizes always tiny, either buy a bigger size (or 2 sizes bigger than you would normally have) or get down the gym ha ha

Still waiting on transfer news this week, just hope a good couple can be sorted and then maybe 1 more or so later on.
