Leeds to sign...

Lichaj and Delph both on loan until end of the season.
Keogh also on loan until the end of the season.
Robbie Rogers
Sean St Ledger

Is all of this true? They look like good signings!

Keogh isn't coming back thankfully. St Ledger no better than we have

Leeds are, for some reason unbeknown to me, unable to take Andy Keogh on a further loan.

Leeds and villa definitely in talks about fab for loan, source fab

This is what I've been told. I'm not going to go into the details of my source because no one believes it anyway but I trust them.
And judging on the nature of the players and our past history, they all seem feasible.

The reason unbeknown to you why we haven't signed Keogh is simply because he doesn't score goals and isn't very good. The Barnsley game proved that. He will never play for Leeds again.

Lihaj, wont happen
delph wont happen, plays when he isnt injured( which is very little)
keogh definitely wont happen
robbie rogers has been going on for 2 weeks now...
Sean St Ledger already agreed terms with ipswich, cant see bates spending money

Andy Keogh was total garbage why would we want him back?

Beckford & Delph plus a centre back would make all the difference

Can't take Beckford this year, he's already played for too many clubs apparently.

Keogh can't be taken back on loan due to loan signing restrictions ... regardless as to whether any of you want him or not.

Possible swap deal being talked about tonight for Aiden white involving Ryo Miyaichi going the other way. this could potentially be a good move for both teams but will lead to speculation that Robert Snodgrass is about to leave.

Ive heard the same rumour at the emirates tonight ,is this miyaichi any good ?

Dont know much about him but hes quick on FIFA and decent stats so sign him up! ;)

He is technically top class and very fast, good move if it happens especially as white will go for nowt at the end of the season. Did well tonight with what was available need to get clayton tied down as well he looked very good tonight.

Not sure about the player but my brother told me earlier today that we were looking at a swap deal with arsenal as Aiden wont sign a new contract.i cant say what his job is because he would get into trouble but he's not usually wrong

Aiden def wants to leave he's set his sights on Prem club and has openly been telling people.

Probably be a swap deal like White for Miyachi on loan.

If we can't afford to give White a decent contract how are we gonna afford to give an Arsenal Youth who's apparently still good a decent one?

If Aidy White lets his contract run down who's to say we will replace him at all, or even swap - don't we have the impressive Ben Parker....!

So much for breaking into team .Another player who the club has looked after while injured,then he s**ts on us 1st chance he gets.As the saying goes-Go break a leg son....udeserve it.MOT.

Signing players cos there decent on fifa now are we? get a grip you tube

Gimpel starting

Gimple was not even on the bench ? so why say he was starting
FACTS first please

Is gimpel in the u18s ? If so why didnt he play for the u18s in their last game ?

Ken Bates would not work with a manager he could not control....Neil Warnock not an option.
lets give Grayson a bit more time..
what if we win tonight?

Ken bates needs to put his hand in his pocket and spend some money this transfer window, if we are going to get in the play offs or higher.
where has all the money gone that we got for the players we have sold over the past three years we must of had more than 10million

Tonight is not important, if we loose I dont mind as long as we dont get trashed. I want promotion.

what happened to the Sammy Clingan of coventry rumours all seams to have gone quiet on that one.

Thats what they were just rumours he won,t
be coming to leeds

Hes rubbish anyway green and white army norn iron and we should know!

He's not rubbish, he stands out for Coventry most matches.. last i heard he was willing to sign a new contract until 2015 i think.

I imagine that he stands out in most of Coventry's matches because the rest of the team are rubbish! He's not good enough in my opinion, but I'm sure others will disagree with me.

Aye he stands out because everyone cant believe he is being paid to be a footballer and not a ball boy! he is crap

Stand out at Coventry!! Even barn door billy would look like messi in covs team

Leeds target Robbie Rogers is in London today (9.1.12). Wonder if he'll be watching the game tonight.

Can play wide left, or might be scouted as snoddy replacement. Either way, would be a good signing.

Don't know where you got this info from but Wiki (I know it's not the most reliable) reckons we're on the verge of signing him.

I heard a couple of weeks ago from an impeccable source that Robbie Rogers had been training with Leeds, was sensational, and would be signing on 1st Jan. It's not happened so far but perhaps that's to do with a work permit.
Sadly, I also heard from the same source that Snodgrass was leaving!

His info on Twitter had a photo of London bridge this morning. He's been chatting about meeting up with Landon Donovan (who I know is not in London) and a few other americans in the city too. Has said it a few times re: being in London. Hopefully will be at the game tonight and will see us (and the great fans) in action

From Robbie Rogers twitter page, he is currently in the UK and has been since the turn of the new year.
From his agent in a local Columbus newspaper he has been in talks with leeds and his MLS club regarding his future: he has said he would decide in the new year after discussing with family.
The work permit part is also true as he is not entitled to an automatic UK work permit as he has not featured enough for the US national side, he has to apply on grounds of "exceptional talent".

Jonny Howson to Huddersfield for one million.

I'll have a pint of what you've been drinking!

And why would he join them for if he as they afe worse off than us in the division u div ! And fir a mere £1million u
Ust of over taxed yourself on that no brainer eh!! U oaf what a waste of time that was silly boy !!

He wants to play in the premiership preferably with leeds but if leeds are not in a position to challenge for promotion for the rest of the season he will leave but definately not to huddersfield

Ha i nearly fell off my seat when i read this

look we have a decent man and leeds fan as manager.we have a chairman who saved us but wil no longer spend decent money.something has to give.and im afraid it will be grayson,then bates will hope he can get another manager to bring the beat out of the players.
grayson does some weird things tatically but he is leeds through and through.
i mean i saw on ssn that us and bristol city are in for a rangers player.thats says it all really.no not a good rangers player either.
dont know where we are going now but in my opinion it will be grayson that finally takes the rap

Why does something have to give? We're currently 1 point off the playoffs with half a season left to go. Let's talk about who it condemned/commended at the end of the season when we can realistically see what this season's efforts have reaped.

There's a long way to go yet!

Maybe grayson should look at getting some of the old leeds players to ellend road to give the lads the guts and glory routine that they used to get maybe it will work

3 players we are looking at matt Richie, Tom Ince and matt tubbs look like worrying times as none of these are defenders but mabye we are looking and my source hasn't been told
