My mate delivered a new car to Bradley Johnsons house last week. According to him he asked for a 2k per week pay rise & Bates wouldn't budge...Similar scenarios with the Howson & Snodgrass deals. It was only a matter of time before they followed as there all close pals & the lure of the Prem lge (money) & prestige of playing there NOW was to good to resist. It seems neither of them wanted to leave & they all loved the fans, but the club would not move or come near their demands.....No surprises.....Who's next? Bates Out. MOT

Bradley ok with me and I say he scored the best ever goal in FA Cup history. Could anyone tell me a better one? Don't think so.

No way. The best ever goal scored in FA Cup history was by 'Sniffer'

Bearing in mind he had 10 shots a game that went in row z. The law to averages told you one was going to end up in the top corner eventually.luckily for his career it just happened to be against arsenal on the telly, thats all.

Carbone scored a pretty awesome one against us once. That's probably a close second...

Gary Kelly 2006 or so half volley outside the box was a better goal.

"According to him he asked for a 2k per week pay rise & Bates wouldn't budge"
I wish I was on 2K a week, let alone asking for that as a payrise!
Do you realise thats a £100,000 a year pay rise?
And you are supporting that??
If someone is on £5000 a week that's a quarter of a million pounds a year?
How much money do you think these people are worth then????

"Bradley ok with me and I say he scored the best ever goal in FA Cup history. Could anyone tell me a better one? Don't think so."
I think we could all quote Clarke for a start, but there are many other clubs that have done better.
At the risk of upsetting my opwn fellow supporters, Porterfield's goal for Sunderland against us was better, for a start.....

snodgrass in yep saying why he left it was because he wanted to play in prem and playing in prem will make him a scotland regular and it was a no brainer ok. he has had a good game against a slow starting spurs side just wait till things are not going his way it will be same old snoddy hand on hips head down moaning and if he wants to play in prem that much and norwich go down will he leave no he will not and why its because he forgot to say he his on more money at norwich than leeds offered him [kez1919]

Snoddy is a professional footballer not a Leeds United fan. He has his career to consider. Bates still owns us and won't invest.
Try looking at it a) from his point of view and b) from a grown-up's perspective. Would you accept less pay, work for an employer like Bates AND play in a lower league? If the answer is yes then you're not very sensible.
It amazes me how many fans are just so naive and lacking in perspective that they think he should have stayed.
Footballers are not fans - get over it.

I think also he's chatting sh=t on that topic. I do believe that Bates and his lies with, this year we are bringing in good players and having a real go at it. I think he sold us that story. So the person to blame for all this is Bates. If he had stuck to what he tells people, we might not of lost snoddy.
BATES OUT, BATES OUT!!

99% of premier league players are on more than we could or would offer.
He would leave if offered a place in a premier league side next year if Naaarwich are relegated.
There is very little loyalty these days. It's all money, money, money

For a few quid more we could of kept Snoddy & Howson. Put them into this current side & we would of made a big challenge, even more so with Gradel, shame he decided to go of his own accord! Keep the faith in NW.....MOT.

To me the interview confirms that there never was going to be a takeover. Investment was all that was officially mentioned and I don't think that will materialise now. Ken Bates is not a rich man for no reason, he's as sly as a fox and has all Leeds fans mugged! Thankfully we do have NW though which is one saving grace.

Snodgrass is no longer a Leeds player and he's moved on for his own reasons, lets just forget him, he didn't want to be any part of us?

I noticed, something a bit different on saturday at Elland road, ie the stewards were making copious notes on the activity of the supporters...........
I thought to my self ,,,,,ah there going to have a best supporter of the year award...........NOT.......
WHATS GOING ON.... is this the new stewardship from LUST, and are we going to get letters thru the post if we have been a bit to vocal and abusive in our support???
Our steward appeared to be writing a dissertation.........
or maybe we were to vocal.
Did anyone else notice this on Saturday,,,,?

Hi I am the original poster of item and to the clowns who dont understand what LUST are up I would like to draw there attention to the meetings with S Harvey this summer re match day Stewardship and Item 4 of their Vision Statement. I have retyped the key part for your reading and I quote
We yearn for a return to the traditional, enjoyable match day experience; our members tell us that attending games at Elland Road has almost become a chore. The atmosphere inside the ground has become as negative as we can ever remember it, and relations with the stewards have deteriorated to an extent that it adversely affects the match day for many of our members. Events off the field are overshadowing events on the pitch, and the effect of this is being felt in the stands and creating an unpleasant atmosphere in the ground. Our members also tell us they feel alienated from their club,
So I repeat my statement, are we going to get sanctioned if we are to vocal in speaking our mind, (dont forget they have a record of who purchased the seats)
Where will they draw the line.......
Leeds united forvever.

Hate to say this, but I would take a brave defeat. We can not afford a cup run. We just haven't got the depth. Strange to be satisfied with a loss, but we have to look at the buig picture. Promotion

Warnock openly stated that Faulin is the best player he has ever worked with,he's been out injured a good while so i suppose if he was available and we could afford a % of his wages he would be in for him in a shot...sadly i don't think we really have any money to bring ANY premiership players in on loan...i hope i am proved wrong

Faulin is in QPR 25 player squad.
