So apparently we've sealed a deal for Stuart Dallas. Anyone know if he's any good? Heard a few Beentford fans are disappointed to have lost him but I don't know whether that's a good indication. All I know is he's a winger ;)

I guess that's a start. To be honest, between Dallas and Buckley, I would rather have Buckley.

But we have gone for the more "financially viable option".

I wonder if there is a "money back if he doesn't score 8 goals and provide 12 assists (minimum)" clause built in.

Anyway, a wide player is a wide player. Which means Tayls can go back to defence.

I have a feeling he's got more to offer than Buckley. He seems to be able to bag a few goals, from all ranges, and he can create chances. Which is what we're going to need if we want Chris Wood to be prolific. Feeling quite optimistic about him at the moment.

Seen that we are to sign Stuart Dallas from Brentford any thoughts?

Think dallas will be a good addition,had a pretty good season in championship last year. Work with a brentford fan so have heard lots of positives about him. And he is a w**g*r!!

A bearded wonder who will score goals and assists from EITHER flank. Cracking acquisition.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jul 2015 18:31:12
no, at least its a wide player

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jul 2015 18:55:03
I hope I am wrong but are we settling for 2nd best due to Buckleys wages demands? That said I have never seen Dallas play and Rosler knows what he is getting having coached him before. Its just that Buckley always played well against us and is a top draw championship winger.

Agree2 Disagree0

Corky boy, the lad scored 8 last year from 38 games playing as a winger for a team playing 'sexy football' and getting into the playoffs. Sorry I refuse to call it 'heavy metal football' as I am a Mod, a mad Mod at that. I think this lad will be a steal and may end up being a better acquisition than Buckley. Nice beard too like my missus. haha, sorry too much Stella.

Up the pints etc.

Thats the problem when you go for higher league players, wages. Not fair on rest if he gets 20 and everyone else gets 10. that's why Morrison will probably be with us next season, only league 1 will want him but could not afford his wages, and I can't see Cellino paying money out to get rid of some one.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jul 2015 23:17:16
I agree corkwhite would be a shame if that's the score but imagine if we got both we would be a strong outfit if that happened I think we need two incase of injury wish uwe was here when Montenegro was here still Can't believe he was allowed to leave or that redders never toutched him when we lacked any penetration but oh well lufc4life excited for Burnley :@

Batty decision!

We still need another three players.
With the exception of Wood the team is no better than last season. let's hope that NR was such a poor coach/manager and that Rosler can get better and more consistent results from this seasons squad, because as it stands we don't seem much better. Its obvious we need a wide player or two but we badly need another centre back as Cooper and especially Bellusci make at least one error per game. A CB with some pace would be handy. Oh, and sign up Will Buckley asap. Quality player.

31 Jul 2015 13:58:15
I said similar the other day. Ademyemi may be an improvement on Austin, but I don't recall seeing much of him last season and Wood hopefully will be a handful. Erwin is one to develop and will come in handy for those set pieces. This leaves the manager, so let's hope he can make a difference. We do have some very good players and maybe Rossler can bring the best out of them. I don't think his football will be as negative as Redders.

Squad numbers just out, Wootton number 4?? no surprise that there isn't a number 17 after what happened with paddy Kenny

Believable1 Unbelievable0

31 Jul 2015 12:32:35
Mowatt, Antenucci, Doukara and Cooper have significant changes, 10, 7, 11 and 6. Surprised Cook didn't leap for 6 or is he being quite modest. Maybe next time. Didn't notice Wootton and 4 though :/

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jul 2015 15:09:28
Cook a better fit for no. 4.

It seems a little short sighted to bring in one winger for 1.5mil if there are players who are floating around on a free. Whilst I know we want quality we need depth in the squad to provide options, be able to switch things around and cover injury. Half our problems over the last few seasons is that we have been predictable and lacked the ability to get the opposition to have to work to break us down and react to OUR game plan. Opponents turn up and put us on the back foot almost every time. Tough league with lots of games to play we need to be pro active with the ability to be reactive as and when required! Let's get some more pace and players who have natural ability in set positions. Let's hope Buckley comes in and at least 1 more ( Aussie lad on a free?). I so want us to be up there this season - come on Leeds 😎

31 Jul 2015 10:18:32
Sorry pp have to disagree. I'd rather have a couple of quality signings, like Wood and Buckley, than 6 players who you can't really say make us a better side. Sure we need a better squad, but if we can offload some players (we know who they are)and pick up better for free then ok, but it has to be quality first.

Agree3 Disagree0

31 Jul 2015 10:24:16
Yep. Can't argue with that

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jul 2015 12:46:23
Not saying bring in dross - I am happy with the quality 'piece' just think we need more than one in each position and we need options - nothing wrong with bringing in someone on a free - just get the contact right - we pay coaching staff to do exactly that and if we can bring someone in and bring them on - we either keep em or maybe make a few quid. Maybe I did not articulate it well enough - I think fast than I type. Just sick of players not playing in the right positions and Not getting time to consolidate.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jul 2015 15:46:09
Offload player's get more quality haven't we been hear before.

Its a shame, he was a good professional, and I understand his kid was born here.

Its also a shame about the new FA rules, potentially no hidden gems (unless they have dual nationality) from the African nations would get permits. In todays rules would Radebe have got a permit?

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Jul 2015 23:24:17
It should not count if they have allready contributed seems a bit keep top countrys strong and poor ones poorer if they Can't have there internationals in top leagues and it will deter people who have a choice of national teams playing for weaker nations?

{Ed003's Note - isn't it,are you ok Ausman?}

31 Jul 2015 07:18:19
We are 15th Ausman not 13th and if Middlesborough went up instead of Bournemouth we'd be 16th! Aaargggh!

Happy Friday everyone - Up the Whites, down the pints!

I am ok ed. thanks for concern. I have a few problems you could listen to. Sort of Samaritan like ear!
Got a new job. Hate it. Too busy. Working over 6 hours a day. Have you ever heard of such foolishness!? Drinking myself silly every night to make the next full on day bearable!
Frantically looking for some sort of happiness.
Though mc would provide a winger to help me out but he didn't. So I had to drink more
