I have no problem with MB getting rid of Pontus due to his attitude and disruptive influence.
I have no problem with getting 8 million for a relatively unproven 18 year old
I have no problem with Roofe going to be honest.
Why. because I love this club unconditionally.
I have seen far better players than those mentioned above leave over the years .
It's the badge on the front I support not the name on the back of the shirt.

I don't have a problem with any player leaving but, if the might of Brentford can turn an outlay of 2 or 3 million into a profit of 40 to 50 million buying right and selling high, LUFC is doing something seriously wrong. Love the club all you want and nobody here will disagree with the sentiment. But with only two CBs currently on the books of the first team and us haemorraghing defenders on the cheap to other clubs, we're going to 3 at the back next season? White is Coop's understudy? The way to sure up a leaky, unsure defence is to defend in the opposition final third? That thinking cost us promotion last season.

Same can be said for owners.

Nice one Will. That’s what it’s all about buddy!

Will n Bright, I am with you guys.

I love the badge as much as any and will always support the club 'until the world stops going round' that still doesn't make this less painful
i love my kids the same way i love leeds (obviously love leeds more as loved them first) but I would still be upset if they become down and outs as i want what is best for them
it always hurts to see the club lose a good player, go through a rough patch or lose a game. as much as i love leeds a loss always stings a little
Spain says it is the ride not the destination sadly i disagree. last year it was impossible to enjoy the ride knowing the desitnation was us being skint and underselling our best players. mings 20 million pontus 5 and one of the best and most respected clubs have just signed a very exiticting talent for 8 million. it still hurts.

Berms, what are your feelings on the growing rumour that Spurs are coming in for Philips?
08 Jul 2019 09:32:39
Bermo, the destination isn’t us being skint and under selling our best players even if you believe that is happening. This summer is a stop on a 100 year journey that has had many ups and downs and twists and turns and the journey continues. That’s life and of course it hurts, a lot of the time, but we keep going because of the highs that we get as well. Also remember everyone’s part of the journey is different. I’ve been lucky enough to spend most of last season in Yorkshire around Leeds, watching more games than ever before across the squads and I’m not working so it’s been a big part of my life and I’ve loved it, but I cried during the derby game and had a hissy fit like a 5 year old, of course it hurts!
Earlier in the summer I said Bielsa 2 was not going to be an easy journey and for that reason I wondered whether the club or Bielsa would choose it. They have, and lots of difficult decisions have followed and will follow and we’ll see how that equips us for the rest of the journey. Me I’m loving it, I’ll be watching every min of the friendlies on the app and I’ll be back in Leeds for the Forest game and hoping to get a ticket for Bristol.
Let’s get playing some football.

LUFC Tory, very funny! I’m sure Bermos scouting friends have said that will never happen! Not sure what the brownies opinion was!

Radz here 2 years and seems a fide sale is happening already. Can't giveaway the deadwood but seems our best players are fair game.
08 Jul 2019 11:16:21
Fire sale.

Shame Wex, I was looking out for a new fide in the sales!
