All you doubters out there, Ross McCormack has pledged his future to the the mighty Whites

Believable70 Unbelievable36

Remember tevez-Fabregas-ballotelli-Torres to name a few doing the same, if the right money comes in EVERY players has his price I'm afraid.

Maybe MC gave the same RM the improved contract he was after!!

Agree3 Disagree1

26 Jun 2014 18:36:40
that means nothing at all .

Agree3 Disagree1

Until a big offer comes in for him.

Agree3 Disagree1

Where does it say that then?

Agree1 Disagree1

What is it with so called Leeds fans, you spread joy and they're still doom and gloom, lighten up ffs, he's staying

Agree2 Disagree0

Kev
You've NOT spread any joy, you've stated what Ross apparently has come out and said.
Think back 8 months RM signed a new contract so if MC didn't want him to go there's nothing on earth Ross can do only sulk. Last month ( so word has it ) Ross tried to force a better contract, even though he was happy 8 months ago to sign this one?
Either Ross got his new contract or MC has told him who his boss is and when/who decides when he's going I'm afraid.

(NO one players is bigger than ANY club)

Nuff said.

Agree2 Disagree1

Do as your told ross! Maybe we will sell you maybe we wont. What you want is neitherk here nor there. 6.5 should do it!

Agree0 Disagree1

As I've stated before and nobody pays a blind bit of notice;
Players will rarely, if ever publicly state anything other than 'I'm happy here. Why would I leave?'

1: Fear of fan backlash.

2: Jeopardising future loyalty bonuses.

A statement of intent to stay means very little in the modern game. Judge his commitment by his attitude on the pitch, watch him kiss the badge and give the salute and he'll still be out the door if something better comes along. I'm fed up of reading about if or when Ross is going. More interested in who's coming in.

Agree2 Disagree1

Andy you are right on this one, if MC gets the right offer he will be out of the door and nothing Ross can say about it as MC owns his contract and the right to accept any offer he feels fit

Agree1 Disagree1

I truly believe he is a fan of the club and the fans, but it is his job.
If anyone is in a position to negotiate a better deal for themselves, they will (or they are daft).
Again, if you are totally happy where you are working but someone comes along and offers you a better job (higher division) with more remuneration, you would take it.
Lets hope he stays, but don't give him grief if he goes for a higher standard, we ALL would!

Agree1 Disagree0

I think he will stay but the Hocks "he is here today he trains" et. Sounded like he was choosing his words carefully. Like Warnocks no.2 did before putting Becchio in the shop window

Agree0 Disagree0

New kit now on OS: http://www.leedsunited.com/news/article/1sz4yop6ljtpo15pa5ierbarh0

It mentions "bespoke white Macron logos", no idea where they are though!

Also, having a quote from Flowers on the kit launch is laughable!

Believable7 Unbelievable7

26 Jun 2014 17:05:40
it also says its 'all white' - err no it isn't, clue and tallow trim all over it

Agree0 Disagree1

26 Jun 2014 18:25:42
Macron logos are on the shoulder area I think mate!

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes, in BLUE, not white. Just a strange thing to put on the kit launch statement. That they've worked specifically to get a white Macron logo when all the Macron logos on the kit appear to be blue.

Agree0 Disagree0

I thought the logos on the shoulder are white judging by the be proud vid. I really like it nicest shirt in a while. Tough part is deciding on the name on the back, every time I seem to put a player on there they get sold!

Agree2 Disagree0

{Ed003's Note - get SOLD on the back :) }

27 Jun 2014 12:39:32
yeh the sneak peek we saw showed the white logo on the shoulders

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jun 2014 12:54:54
Johno - Please get Hunt put on your shirt :)

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 16:01:08
Cellino seeking clarification re Stewart deal as we are currently under embargo. 18 full pros at least 5 of whom are unwanted. Hack away Hockaday.

Believable22 Unbelievable9

Under embargo? what's that all about we paid our debts and bank was unfrozen

Agree0 Disagree0

Martyn_g yeah we are under a transfer embargo due to the winding up petition but that is set to be lifted by Monday at the latest

Agree0 Disagree0

The winding up petition was dropped on Monday gone by the courts so any embargo will have automatically been dropped at the same time

Agree0 Disagree0

There is an embargo.

Agree0 Disagree0

Young Roma whizkid Federico Viviani could be on his way to Leeds, as competition in midfield is very strong at Roma, this kid is highly regarded in Italy

Believable32 Unbelievable16

One of these 47 rumours must be true, This would be the best one.

Agree3 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 16:13:15
he's a top top top player . if he plays like he can he would be one of the best tireless midfielders in the league

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 14:27:41
The kits have been leaked on Tw@ter. Brace yourself for a laugh when you see the keepers shirt .

Believable2 Unbelievable8

The keeper shirt is class I don't know how you could laugh at it.its like napolis away shirt last season.

Agree1 Disagree2

26 Jun 2014 16:15:23
all the shirts are on the official website now . they all look pretty cool . all I would change is the home link sponser on the back :/ and if I am being picky the sponsers logo on the front isn't very good either so I would have a cooler looking sponser haha

Agree1 Disagree0

Why do we need an army top for a keeper shirt? Its ridiculous. Sponsor looks awful and ruins what is a nice looking kit

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 20:27:55
hate the sponser logo we should demand they change the logo haha

Agree0 Disagree0

Anyone know how big the HomeLink logo is on the back of the shirt? From the only photos I've seen it looks huge! If so, I won't be buying.

Agree0 Disagree0

Leeds linked with Aaron Wilbraham.

Anyone else heard the same?

Believable4 Unbelievable37

This day can't get any worse can it?

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 08:46:04
Leeds and Rotherham are linked with league two top scorer Sam Winnall
Scored 24 goals this season with only two being penalties he plays for Scunthorpe who got promoted

Believable23 Unbelievable20

According to Adam Pope's twitter we are signing a couple of Italians when the bank account is unfrozen, also new kit released this aft! MOT

Believable21 Unbelievable11

Bank account isn't frozen anymore

Agree3 Disagree0

Only just been unfrozen hasn't it?

Agree1 Disagree0

Yeah I think so, pretty sure we have to wait for approval to start signing though, had a transfer embargo whilst account was frozen

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 14:22:19
Account been unfrozen since 23rd but an embargo is still in place

Agree0 Disagree0

Viviani and Cacia will do for starters

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 20:08:32
Agim Ibraimi would be great. On loan at Cagliari last season. Macedonian international. Deal agreed.

Two Cagliari 19 yr olds - Dario Del Fabro (CB)Italy U19 + Nicola Murru (LB)who has played for Italy U21 are on way.

Also possible is CB Michele Pellizzer 25yrs and well established Serie B

Look out for Dom Dwyer a forward from MLS at Sporting Kansas poss on trial.

Agree1 Disagree0

Viviani looks the real deal! would be a real message to the rest of the league!

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 07:59:19
I heard this morning Diego Lopez coming in as Coach to assist the Hock and the Italian invasion begins with El Abraimi - Izzo - Cacia with Del Fabro & Daprela also possible. Their will be 1 announcement today this has come from a reliable source connected to the club.

As he said to me don't shoot the messenger! Hockaday more like didntlastaday! Forza Leeds

Believable5 Unbelievable27

I think you mean Ibrahimi not El Abraimi lol. Hopefully most of those sign, especially Izzo and Del Fabro

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 14:20:14
No in comings today as embargo is still in place

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 02:31:54
Apparently LUFC in advanced talks with jermaine pennant on a 1 yr deal.

Also rumours that millwall and charlton looking to take paddy kenny away from ER

Believable10 Unbelievable43

26 Jun 2014 12:45:59
nonsense , PK is joining Yeovil

Agree0 Disagree0

Jermaine pennant is he still playing?

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jun 2014 18:32:46
Can't see either been right really. Millwall have a decent keeper and Charlton have got players been fed to them from standard liege with the new owner. As for pennant, let's be serious lol. Didn't cut it last time when we were in premier league so don't want him back!

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jun 2014 17:35:06
Pennant would not be a good signing…. always fails the attitude test and would be more of a liability than an asset….and he's past it!

Agree0 Disagree0
