According to BBC:
Joffy to Hull and Bamford is being eyed-up by a few champo clubs, with Blackburn being the top name floated around.

Leeds turn down interest in Gnonto from a Saudi Arabian team.
1.) 13 Jan 2025 14:24:30
Which alleged team?
How much did they allegedly
offer in transfer fee?
{Ed001's Note - doesn't really matter which team as most of the league employs one man to deal with its development and transfers. You have to remember that a large chunk of the league is owned by one ownership group - PIF, the same group that owns Newcastle - so they aren't really a separate entity like other leagues.}
2.) 13 Jan 2025 14:46:58
Cheers Ed001 on info .
{Ed001's Note - very welcome, Michael Emanalo is the sporting director of the Saudi Pro League and basically he is the one picking the foreign players they buy throughout the league. It is a very strange set up.}
3.) 13 Jan 2025 16:50:24
I wonder how Gnonto feels? His heart isn't in it this season, we should have sold him. Put Schmidt on the wing if we needed another winger.
4.) 13 Jan 2025 16:43:43
Ed001 Can you send him an email blast about Patrick Bamford and his burning ambition to play in their country?
{Ed001's Note - I can certainly try.}
5.) 13 Jan 2025 21:21:58
Did we actually get any verified offers for Gnonto MOT? I can't recall.
6.) 14 Jan 2025 06:13:41
According to the BBC, Alf.
04 Nov 2024 15:10:24
Apparently Firpo and Rodon had a "heated exchange" at half time at the Plymouth match. Sounds both were annoyed at one another.
Any idea why?
1.) 06 Nov 2024 18:19:31
Players have disagreements. sure its been sorted.
2.) 09 Nov 2024 13:36:13
Won't be an issue today Baz. Next possible issue date the end of the month.
24 Sep 2024 07:47:50
Leeds rumoured to be interested in extending DJ's contract.
1.) 24 Sep 2024 09:34:41
They should.
2.) 27 Sep 2024 06:52:07
That would depend what league we are in and when it runs out. If it helps get a better price then def but if we get promoted. We should sell. But we won’t sell cause no other mug will pay what we did for him. So we either got write it off or keep him when we are in the prem for some reason.
3.) 01 Oct 2024 22:24:48
deservedly so.
13 Sep 2024 12:20:12
Firpo rumoured to be looking at a move to la liga with real bettis interested, if Leeds don't renew his contract.
Would you renew? I certainly would. Even if he isn't at prem level next season, a big contract ensures a decent sale figure.
1.) 13 Sep 2024 13:53:04
Similar to Meslier . clubs don't want to pay transfer fees on Firpo.
He will leave as a free agent end of season.
2.) 13 Sep 2024 17:48:30
I'd try re-sign him, personally. With all the injuries and manager rotation at the club when he was last in the Prem, I think he might fancy another go at it.
3.) 13 Sep 2024 23:37:58
I think Firpo much more likely fancies the sunnier climate and possibly slightly slower tempo of other country's leagues Dill
He will be off next summer a free agent its a given.
4.) 14 Sep 2024 08:53:29
Agree with baz as he knows the target list of every club on the planet, if baz says no one wants them that’s good enough for me.
5.) 14 Sep 2024 09:23:06
I’d re-sign him too. He’s quite a strong character to have ridden the abuse, and come back stronger. His defending has improved a lot, and he is a threat going forward, with good link up play with those playing in front of him. Pops up with the odd goal too. If he then gets an opportunity to go elsewhere, get a fee, which is also in his own interests, and his agents!
6.) 14 Sep 2024 10:06:23
Eureaka fellas!
Finally a 100% spot on post from Berma.
7.) 14 Sep 2024 10:09:38
Brighteth on Firpo: ' his defending has improved a lot"
I must admit I leaked sone " wazz" upon reading that hilarity ??.
8.) 14 Sep 2024 15:34:35
Well, I think you’re the only one who can’t see a clear improvement then Bazil. Maybe you wazzed in yer own eyes?
9.) 14 Sep 2024 16:46:29
Baz ???????.
10.) 14 Sep 2024 17:44:10
The emoji agreement king is back…….
11.) 14 Sep 2024 18:42:05
Watch the game today Brighty and honestly ( key word) tell me he had a good game!
and that's at frigging woeful Champo level not EPL level fella
: improved a lot? . get a grip
Mr Hyperbole strikes again.
12.) 14 Sep 2024 19:10:34
Junior has simply found his level. He's a decent Championship standard LWB, but not LB. Let him depart on a free in the summer.
13.) 14 Sep 2024 20:39:42
Yet he was man of the match a couple of weeks ago.
14.) 14 Sep 2024 21:39:52
Yes you made that point yesterday against woeful Hull
Hyperbole and repetition Brighty.
15.) 14 Sep 2024 22:23:49
The only repetition is your use of the word hyperbole, of which there is none, showing your lack of understanding of a word you must’ve stumbled across in a word search in the daily mirror, and looked up, but subsequently forgot the meaning of.
16.) 14 Sep 2024 23:28:20
Again you'be made the same post before
And guess what it's still wrong.
17.) 15 Sep 2024 19:43:10
Depends what league we are in and what wages he is asking. He must be one of the Champs highest earners.

12 Jan 2025 10:28:34
Is Crew injured? I was surprised not to see him play yesterday, it felt like the perfect time.
Gnonto's form has dropped considerably and we may be best offloading him if a bid comes in as we're stacked in the wings.
Schmidt played well yesterday, hopefully we see more of him.
1.) 12 Jan 2025 12:02:48
Farkey doesn't appear to rate Leeds young players Chambers, Crew and Debayo
I still lament the sale of forward Max Dean. he wpikd/ shoulx havd neen. a huge asset in this Champo season
Deano scoring a shed load of goals in the higher quality French top league until his recent injury.
2.) 12 Jan 2025 12:09:55
All the youngsters currently injured mot. That’s why they weren’t on the bench either. All got a farkestring. All out for at least a season.
3.) 12 Jan 2025 16:01:36
Baz Perhaps Farke does rate them but he's ageist or more accurately against the youth?
Evidence might be a couple of times this season during post match pressers when his side has disappointed he's called them "young" and "inexperienced" or needing more experience. Yet the average age of his team this season is over 25 which is around mid-table in terms of the rest of the Championship.
25 means you have a fair bit of experience imo.
Furthermore, many are full internationals.
4.) 12 Jan 2025 16:39:29
Good post Georgey . yep
Farkey definitely needs to quit the young inexperienced team baloney.
5.) 12 Jan 2025 20:01:06
Good point George. I had never noticed before but he does do that.
6.) 13 Jan 2025 02:31:03
P S.
Charlie Cresswell upate watch
For those who said Charlie woukd not ne good enough for French League 1 . well Charlie is still a 1st team starter having played 16 out of 18 of Toulouse's competitive matches.
Very well done Charlie . very good defender/ player in the making.
7.) 13 Jan 2025 19:40:20
Leeds are actually rated third youngest team in the championship after Sunderland and Plymouth so yes they are relatively inexperienced!
09 Jan 2025 15:32:40
The team who are top on new year's Day, finish the season top of the table.
This is true for the last sixteen seasons, with the exception of one team. Leeds United.
Saturday (even though it's a cup game, will set the pace for the rest of the season.
06 Jan 2025 15:31:41
Apologies if this seems a little doomy but.
I'm concerned that if sheff utd and/ or Burnley sign a good striker and defender, we could slip into the play offs again.
I hope we bolster the team.
1.) 06 Jan 2025 16:16:57
MOT
Blades seem to be getting BBD back on loan. BBD and Moore at Championship level as good as it gets imo. Should send them to ? points and autos.
Black Cats could be getting Enzo le Fee. That makes them a serious threat to also acquiring ? points. Le Fee silky midfielder for Roma in case you was unawares.
We're not even in the second week of the window. Imagine if these teams do more good business? And then there's Burnley.
You mustn't be concerned though. Concern shows a lack of faith in Farke and LUFC employees and that can be interpreted as veiled criticism. ✋.
2.) 06 Jan 2025 16:32:21
Good posts.
3.) 06 Jan 2025 16:40:30
Thanks for the additional info George.
I'm hoping with big spenders 49ers and RB at the helm, and then not wanting to lose money, that we will see some movement soon enough?
Maybe they're waiting for the dust to settle at other clubs and then go and buy? Maybe. hopefully.
Don't get me wrong, Leeds are top of the table and should be about ten points clear. We've got no issues in ending the season at the top, all things being the same. Things aren't the same though, so. fingers crossed.
4.) 06 Jan 2025 19:12:58
In yer dreams George pfff
Why not try and construct a worthy criticism rather than insults, which you seem very accustomed to.
5.) 06 Jan 2025 19:19:04
Well your mate Baz told me that Sunderland or Black Cats as you affectionately call them, had no chance in this low quality league this season.
Perhaps you both need to realign yourselves on that before giving comment.
6.) 06 Jan 2025 19:39:20
Do I detect a veiled attempt at sarcasm there George?
7.) 07 Jan 2025 00:45:22
OP Why do you assert erroneously "affectionately"?
Is it because it's well-known that use of a nickname during conversation or similar automatically means your love for the subject matter being discussed?
Makes me recall this conversation with Ed25:
George: How are the Toffees doing?
25: Didn't realize you love Everton, George?
George: Why would you think that, 25?
25: Because you referred to them by their nickname.
George: Oh yes, poor me for forgetting that oft taught principle of only uttering an entity's nickname if you love them.
25: Not to worry George. What are you doing tonight?
George: I'm about to drop off Mrs Integrity so she can watch Gordon Sumner in concert!
Yep, it's another world-beater ?.
8.) 07 Jan 2025 07:28:51
Must I do lurve me a bit of Sting.
9.) 07 Jan 2025 08:39:12
Baz Let's hope for some excellent January recruitment so we again reach the Fields ?️ of Gold ?.
05 Jan 2025 14:45:06
Farke is in a tight spot with meslier. If he replaces him and we lose points because of crap GKing, Farke looks weak for bowing to pressure.
If he keeps Meslier and he continues to make mistakes, then Farke is seen as ineffective as a manager.
Farke is a bang average manager, coaching the best team in the league. Our position shouldn't be surprising to anyone.
His failing are obvious when we drop needless points, his achievements are praised when we win games that we should win.
1.) 05 Jan 2025 14:55:38
Interesting post MOTagain.
2.) 05 Jan 2025 15:27:30
Farke post match comments utter nonsense.
3.) 05 Jan 2025 16:19:43
Disingenuous Farke comments.
4.) 05 Jan 2025 16:26:38
George, I have been saying this for two years now. BUT, nobody wants to question DF and his so-called logic. The Leeds media is a mirror image of Farke, No B$$S AND SOFT!
5.) 05 Jan 2025 17:37:24
Hasn’t done badly in this division for a “bang average” coach, has he? ??.
6.) 05 Jan 2025 18:46:05
You didn't say that last season!
7.) 05 Jan 2025 19:29:28
Farke just an actor.
Doesn't mind remarking "sins of the past" or digging out Manor when he slipped against Burnley but won't criticize Gash Statue Scissors.
8.) 06 Jan 2025 05:31:47
We are top of the league because of Farke. I find it unfathomable that some fans wouldn’t know that.
As I’ve said before don’t underestimate the quality and competitiveness of this league, it’s why teams are bunch up scrapping for those auto spots.
You are completely naive if you think we should be blowing this league apart.
There are some absolutely pathetic nonsensical posts put on here at times it does beggar belief!
04 Jan 2025 19:11:58
Mesliers performance wasn't one of an incompetent goal keeper, that's an easy get out.
No, his performance was that of a man who no longer gives a rats arse about his job.
We should reciprocate.
1.) 04 Jan 2025 19:17:42
Both things MOTalaw.
2.) 04 Jan 2025 19:25:25
MoTagain, this keeper has been poor for years now, I would focus on the person who plays him every week!
3.) 04 Jan 2025 19:55:54
Absolutely Hooksie.
4.) 04 Jan 2025 20:23:46
He has been poor for years but he has still shown some manner of quality now and then.
Tonight, he may as well not have shown up. If this was his first bad match, you could forgive the first and maybe third goal; defenders should have been on it.
But the second goal? Where he scoops it back from the crossbar and puts it at the feet of the attacker? That's maliciousness, not incompetence.
5.) 04 Jan 2025 20:33:21
Having watched the Meslier gaff on the highlights and it looked like it was going over the bar before he touched it.
6.) 04 Jan 2025 21:37:00
I thought exactly the same LUFC, exactly the same! If you watch it closely it looks like it’s going over by a foot as he touches the ball above the top of the bar! Bloody idiot ??.
7.) 05 Jan 2025 00:49:22
Woodster, the Biggest Idiot is the Manager who says he is the Best Keeper in the Championship. Two Clowns IMO.
14 Jan 2025 06:13:41
According to the BBC, Alf.
13 Jan 2025 16:50:24
I wonder how Gnonto feels? His heart isn't in it this season, we should have sold him. Put Schmidt on the wing if we needed another winger.
12 Jan 2025 19:59:42
Farke out.
07 Jan 2025 18:42:47
I think he would be great in our squad.
Alf, you've got a lot of experience with this kind of stuff, can you shed some light on why a player wouldn't come to champo team, who needs a striker, who set up goals and don't finish them and who are heading to the prem (?)
Would having 'promotion' on their football CV not be a big plus?
07 Jan 2025 18:41:10
I wrote one entry in my Leeds diary today. It says "bugger".
14 Jan 2025 06:15:57
I'm sure we will finish top unless something terribly unfortunate or, 'Leedsy' happens.
With crew and joffy going on loan, Bamford and Piroe out, I would be shocked if we didn't sign a 9 and 10. If Gnonto was on form I wouldn't worry too much but it seems mad not to be protected up front when we have wingers, defenders and midfielders coming out the ying Yang.
13 Jan 2025 16:51:45
I thought Klopp was the director of football through a dotted line?
13 Jan 2025 12:19:25
Our team is top Vs the other teams.
However, if those other teams bolster up and we don't, there's no guarantee that we will beat those teams again, as all those teams could be better than they were in the first half of the season.
The team that ends top on new year's day gets promoted. The last team who failed to do that was Leeds United.
12 Jan 2025 20:01:06
Good point George. I had never noticed before but he does do that.
11 Jan 2025 21:49:47
Harrogate made it harder than it should have been. A quality side without a doubt who played better than teams in the champo.
