Just read that cream cracker legs sini has come home from Colombia because he's injured.
Oh dear oh dear.
22 Mar 2024 18:18:19
What a ? shame
Leeds getting £20 million for Sini from South Coast pensioners maybe good business after all.
22 Mar 2024 19:21:51
Good riddance to him and all the other wasters.
22 Mar 2024 19:53:55
They've bought two perpetually crocked players off us now, Baz ?.
22 Mar 2024 20:12:33
Lol LUFCfeath . agreed . except I can't put Jackie Harrison in the same group as the wasters who joined under Brenty . Adams, Roca, Sini, Wober, Raz etc.
22 Mar 2024 20:28:04
Dill indeed lol
Please can Bournemouth make it a hattrick of crocks and buy Llorente if Roma don't want to.
22 Mar 2024 20:52:22
Harrison the biggest turncoat of them all.
22 Mar 2024 21:18:26
Corky, your opinion. No probs.
Imo 5 year service JH deserved EPL football. he kept Leeds up in 2021/22. JH did far more for Leeds than say KP in EPL. who was more than happy to leave Leeds after being injured all season and doing nowt for Leeds that season.
Just saying.

Harrison did it with white gloves on, or so it seemed, the fact that he was a good player for us then turned his back when relegation came made his choice the most inexcusable. Hope he rots with Everton.

Shame to hear sini was a great player and never nice when a great player is injured. I understand all this Judas and turncoat stuff, but in all honesty we can’t really say that.
It’s a job not a love or passion like with fans, If our job got worse (relegated) or another job offered more money we would all take it.
Club players like Giggs are rare, even batty and speed, both of whom I love left us as that’s how life works sadly. Fans outlive any player or manager, and the club is always bigger.
Side before self!

Yes berm I would never wish I injury on any player but I only highlight what we all said about sini that he is a brilliant talent but injury prone.
I am sure he will have enough of a career at the top level to make the money to have a comfortable living.
It's more amusing that Bournemouth have given up money for not a lot of players this year.

I agree berm, I certainly never wish any ex player any ill whatsoever, I genuinely feel sorry for them when they choose to leave us by them requesting a move, and whilst I’m not too naive to understand it’s often about (perceived) greater riches and glory.
For myself, partly to move forwards as quickly as possible and focus back on players who DO want to wear the shirt, I try and stay neutral about all ex players, irrespective of how the move works or doesn’t work out over time.
I think supporters dissatisfaction with ex players is a legacy sentiment, that the corporate suits have never been able to take away from the often forgotten much maligned supporters.
Definitely side before self, let mr Hammond etc reap as much money as is humanly possible from all, any player who doesn’t want to play for Leeds United and let’s reinvest in new exciting players that do.
But anger or resentment just keeps them in our peripheral when they’ve made their beds really, and we have so much more exciting players to focus on going forwards.
And yes, we know it’s cyclical and it will undoubtedly happen with another player in the future, but with a culture like the one Farkey is building, hopefully that becomes less and less.

I know Ben can certainly didn’t take your post as nasty or malicious as you are not like that and I do agree
It’s always comforting to know we got money for a frock rather than them sit in our physio room as we all know that’s been very full over the years.
23 Mar 2024 07:14:25
That’s a very well written post Class, although football is not like any other job or even sport and it does contain a huge amount of emotion to supporters and pretty much everyone who who is involved.
Anger and resentment can be an emotion us fans can display like in the event of the loan clause exodus. I personally don’t hate these players and certainly wouldn’t wish their careers blighted by bad injuries.
For me it’s just a question, and it is still a question that it is possible that one or two of these players may come back to the club in the summer.
That is my issue that I don’t want to see any of these players who made their choice already, come back to our club.
My instinct tells me that this won’t happen and I truly hope it won’t as they they were all first team players who were not forced out and it was quite obvious they didn’t want to play for Leeds United anymore.

Read that too. Also read a comment from a Bournemouth fan saying “don’t let the Leeds fans read this! ”! ???.
