According to sky we have now had 18 players leave, sold, loan, released.
That is some turnover and a shedload of savings on wages.
We have had 3 come to us and 2 should be 1st team regulars maybe just maybe there are a couple more in the pipeline to come, Bogle for one I hope, fingers crossed ?.

At first glance 18 sounds like a shocking number, however, the majority were dead wood or players who clearly had no passion to play for the mighty Leeds. I'm more than happy to get rid of those 18 (and maybe a few more) and then bring in a handful of decent players who strengthen the squad, but more importantly want to be part of the journey.
I still think it shows good business sense by the 49ners but I'll hold my final judgement until the end of the transfer window.

If crew and gnonto go we will need to splash some serious cash to replace them otherwise we will not be as competitive as last year.
It is imperative we get some creativity and goals in.

I fully agree danny.

The big problem/ fear is that CS stuff will rumble onto last week / last day even. it must not!
SF49ers need to show some balls and inform CS and hjs agent . that any sale needs to happen in next 3 weeks or there will be no sale agreement by Leeds United for this
season.

2 weeks baz. After that No one at all leaving. Regardless of dosh.
19 Jul 2024 13:26:00
The Leeds hierarchy, Cree and his agent probably already have agreements and assurances that he doesn’t want to leave and they don’t won’t to sell him.
If that’s true they have no obligation to announce that and can leave all the speculation and blah blah to the journalists and fans like you Baz.

Agreed Aus .2 weeks max
Something on the lines of a Mr Bloom at Brighton . minimum price. then NO SALE
A tad naive OP. I would not trust any verbal ' assurances " from Cre agent . SF549ers hold the power on this.

If you look at it logically there are no signs that Summerville will be leaving. Cree himself has stated recently he’s very happy at the club. Likewise the owners selling Archie Gray was a very bitter pill to swallow for the fans, they would not do that twice and make themselves a hate target from the fans. Unless they bring in someone better than Summerville which is very unlikely with the amount they would have to spend.

It would be intriguing if you get this one right OP.
15% chance.

It’s getting close Baz for you to make one of your famous constantly changing predictions of, where Leeds will finish this season and don’t be shy to make a relegation prediction……. again! or was it 12th or maybe 6th or god knows what.
19 Jul 2024 16:54:08
It was definitively 6th at end of window OP as you well know
which unsurprisingly was still far closer in accuracy than your Champions Elect 1st ?
And especially for you OP
September 1st end of window is when I shall give it again.
