Would rather we signed Danny Graham on a free rather than waste money on gash like Robbie Simpson.. 300k for someone who is proven nobody is just plain crazy, you could get two decent/better players than him for that money..
Plus Danny Graham has scored goals in this division..
;D

Danny Graham will cost money sunshine, he's u24 and as Carlisle offered him a contract they're entitled to be compensated for "aiding his football development" under the Bosman ruling. They want 250k by the way... and we're still talking to Graham and haven't finished at Simpson. |

They did want 250k when he was contracted yes, now hes out of contract though they`ll get next to fuck all compo wise, Bates would see to that.. If we are both talking to him then theres only one winner and thats us... like all the rest, soon as they see our training ground thats it there beemed in.. Danny Graham has already been on loan at Leeds so knows the place inside out... |

You aint the most clued up it seems but I'll forgive your ignorance  Pilkington & Kay chose us over you so yes there is only one winner at the minute and it's not the ones with the shiney training ground at Thorp Arch either Bates will see to chuff all he has no power over anyone at the tribunal and I didn't think the FA liked you and him much anyway? |

Good luck to L**ds but I have no idea why their odds are so short.
For my money they could start 09/10 a lot weaker. I mean
Beckford or Graham? (30 goals a season versus 15 goals a season)
Ricahrdson or Crowe?
They’ve also lost Douglas and Sodje went to Barnsley
I’d be amazed if Delph stays this summer (if he does his value will only go down IMO because I don’t think he that’s special and will suffer second season syndrome like most young footballers) and if / when he goes I wouldn’t bank on much of the transfer getting re-invested in the side
After that the only players left I rate are Naylor and Snodgrass (who is being linked to Palace, will he want to stay?)
If Graham wants to go there best of luck to him, because unless Bates changes his approach and splashes some cash I can’t see L**ds finishing above us next season

Sodje hasnt gone to Barnsley...well he has but not the one you are thinking of. It's his brother who played for York. Sam is still to sign for someone

Sam is still to sign for someone Ah well it’ll be interesting to see if they sign him because seemingly he did very well for them, but equally it strikes me L**ds don’t operate on a wage budget reflective of there gates and ticket prices so I don’t see it as a given. Any L**ds fan who doesn’t call there summer to date a disaster is deluding themselves IMO Lost Douglas Lost Richardson Losing Beckford Have they actually managed to agree terms with any of their better players  |

Most of them seem bloody happy to have got shut of them. Other than "losing" Beckford who they haven't lost yet I'm not sure how their summer is a disaster. Crowe looks a decent signing too. I want them to have a nightmare summer as much as the next town fan but that doesn't seem likely at the moment. |

Personally I think Crowe isn’t that special, you don’t trawl your way in the bottom two divisions in your late 20’s without reason. To me he’s a modest League One right back and Holdsworth would have been a much better signing for them IMO
Douglas is a decent player and it will be interesting to see who they replace him with (and for that matter where Douglas and Richardson end up)
As for Beckford, sorry but you don’t replace 30 goals a season strikers with better – you simply can’t. At the most they may find another 30 a season man but that’s easier said than done. More likely they’ll miss about 10 goals next season
It’s not an anti L**ds rant, I think Grayson is a far better manager than Wise or McAllister so I expect them to do okay because of him.
The thing is I don’t see them building a League winning side at this moment in time, which is what the odds suggest

I don't think LC will sign Danny Graham if he has the wrong attitude despite his record this league.

The thing is I don’t see them building a League winning side at this moment in time, which is what the odds suggest I hear what you say about Crowe but in the same light hasn't Holdsworth spent his entire career trawling around the lower divsions? My point was that Richardson was seen by all as a liability and that Crowe is an improvement on that. Again last season Douglas was not a regular and was to L**ds what Flynn was to us in some ways. So, much like I doubt we'd mourn the loss of Flynn neither is anyone partiucularly bothered that Douglas has left from what I hear. Agreed the potential loss of Beckford would be great, but it's only potential at the moment. So the summer so far has hardly seen Leeds weakened, in fact from just the deals that have actually happened they are stronger than last season. |

Snodgrass is a class act! Be great if they lose him and Beckford on the cheap. It would severely hamper a promotion rival.
