Talk on Leeds game v Middlesbrough bad day at the office we will get games like that but what worry's me is we will sell Sam Byram in January for I would expect cheap with only 6 months left on contract . I say good his attitude is poor but how can Leeds compete with the top teams in the championship if we want to cut players wages offering Sam Byram new 4 year deal with less money than he is on aswell . this tells me wages are costing us players the striker that picked Wednesday over Leeds . they offered more money joey Barton again down to wages we didn't get him would of given us premier experience Just my view Leeds won't go up in next 2 years hope I'm wrong mot

Have sympathy for your argument! Our problem is we need £2million a season for rent on ER and TA,plus our past owners have left us with unpaid bills,which we get stung for every year.

Deda Land is right about the rent but don't forget everything else. We as a club were losing a little over £1m a month when Cellino came in. We had players on inflated wages we couldn't really afford and a huge amount background staff we didn't really need. All that's been trimmed back to the point where we have a young team (many of which are in house developed) and we are supposedly just about breaking even now.

We missed out on Barton, would have loved to get him, but we offered £20k a week which is a top Championship wage, he wanted double. Forestieri would have cost more than Wood and has scored 1 goal so no real missed opportunity.
As for Byram i'm surprised we offered a lower wage but its good we are not been held to ransom by players on wages above their skill level or agents asking for prem wages for their clients.
