Someone I work with who is a Norwich City fan says that Leeds have asked about Jonny Howson on loan. can't see it myself but would love to see him in a Leeds shirt again
1.) Howson back? You must be joking. Good enough for here and now but not for a premiership push this or next year. We need better.
2.) Give over mate, let's move on from the old players, he's an overrated light weight. the past is the past remember he asked to leave fact?
AA
3.) He left us why would we want him back, also mccormack is no captain we don't have a natural leader at the club need one desperately
Mr T.
4.) I can't se it either but would rather we went elsewhere for a loan midfielder. Too much rose-tinted hype about him as a local lad, he lacks the quality we need and he is too ineffective and lightweight for my liking.
5.) I must admit that there is some sentiment on my part, I did rate him when he was with us and I know he wanted to leave but in the absence of anyone who can create anything in the middle of the park, I think he would fill the gap until we go up!

He's not good enough never was really I don't even known how he plays for a premier league club
7.) NO WAY!
Left for better things!!
Build for the future, the past is the past.
8.) Howson is so overrated. Don't think anyone would want him back. Let him just rot as Norwich reserve player.
9.) Hopefully he'll be at Elland Road next year - fingers crossed ;-)
10.) If ANY player left our club then why on earth would you want them back?
If they wanted to leave which Mr Howson did then leave them be END OF ;)

11.) Howson is a really good player at this level, in his best position of attacking midfielder, behind the striker(s). Have no issue with him having left us. The sour grapes stuff from some fans is just boring each time we're linked with a a former player. Do I think it will happen, though? No. Chapel A
12.) Chapel A so you want a player back that walked away and didn't want to play for your club?
Short memories some fans!

I don't ever recall Howson asking or wanting to leave Leeds, to the best of my knowledge he along with Snodgrass were given little choice! The bates propaganda machine ethic of "it's my fooking club and my fooking money so I'll do what I fooking want to" has some forgetting this.
IMO Johnny Howson was a good servant and player while at Leeds.
14.) Andy -players move on, for a variety of reasons, often to further their career. I don't take it personally! It's part and parcel of the sport; it's part and parcel of their career. Howson never said he didn't want to play for our club. he never walked away. He was sold because our then chairman wanted the £750k Norwich were offering him. He was an excellent servant for this club, as were Snodgrass & Becchio. All great pros. Chapel A
15.) According to Simon Grayson the only player who wanted to leave was Delph, although I think Beckford wanted to go as well, I heard that Ben Parker said Howson didn't want to go, but at the end of the day we just want stability and investment in players, the last 10 years have seen so much turmoil at Eland Road
16.) According to Ben Parker howson was told to leave his contract was running out and bates wanted the cash to make the books look better as he wanted shot of us! He was offered a contract for less than most other players in the team and he was captain! Grayson had said that howson was gutted to leave. Granted he did say he was happy to join Norwich. But every single player says the same thing! Can't blame him for that! I would have him back!
17.) Past is past leave players there? So you wouldn't take back Milner, Lennon, max and snoddy?
18.) All players come out with, well I don't really want to go but iff it's more money they are off, don't hear them putting up a fight to stay either, they have clever agents who know their stuff, was howson forced?, do we really know the truth, and wasn't snodgrass finally encouraged to go to Norwich by howson and Johnson, who would not sign a new contract with leeds, (wanted more brass) neil warnock was desperate for snodgrass to stay, but he had his head turned too.
19.) "Hopefully he'll be at Elland Road next year - fingers crossed ;-)"
I hope he won't, with us in the premiership and Norwich relegated.
20.) Chapel A
I understand what your saying and agree in principle of the bates regime.
Howson was a good player and when he left for one reason or another he NEVER stated he wanted to stay? Becchio wanted more money I will leave it at that.
Lets get youth in, young blood who want to run through brick walls, proud to where our shirt and give 100% when its pulled on and most all be proud of who LUFC are.
(we seem to get players with limited passion) I know Rudi Austin gets slated but I find it hard to criticise someone who gives 100% no matter how good bad they look.
Andy MOT
21.) Howson had one good season IMO and looked to have a great future ahead of him. Alas he has nver fulfilled his potential and the proof is that he's rotting in the reserves in Norfolk.
Not good enough for them, not goog enough for us. We can get better, much better!
22.) Howson is useless does nothing and we are better off without him. him and johnson were weak links in our team it was inly larrys blindness to them that kept them in team hopeless
23.) Howson was a very good player for leeds, he didn't ask to leave, he was forced out. He was not offered a contract that reflected his skill or contribution to the team. He had the chance to play at the top level in English football, he has never disrespected the club. There is not one of you out there who would not leave their job if you had the chance of moving to a company that was operating at a higher level and was offering you more money and securty

25.) Howson could be lazy sometimes, no consistency, and iff he was forced out, that will be why, Norwich was his only option at that time, with more money and he has I believe signed another new contract recently with more money, don't know iff he has done much there either to earn that with being injured or not selected!

With BMD becoming more and more despondent by the day with the pantomime take over at ER there are strong rumors from a contact at Bloomfield Road that Blackpool will make an approach. I hope not, we need stability not change
1.) Behave! That is frying pan into the fire
2.) Could you really blame him? It must be an awful situation to be in, the fans want progress on the field, and he can't improve the squad because of the farce going on in the background!
3.) He might not be getting the backing that he wants from the board but at least they are paying the wages. Blackpool have no money and are losing their best player on loan as they sacked his Dad and he has no reason to hang around anymore.
Who would leave Leeds to go there?
4.) Bmd is a rubbish manager already making excuses about takeover why the team keeps losing, I thought they are proffessionals what a load of crap

At Last!!. Kebe's gone back to Palace. What a waste of time and money he was
24 Mar 2014 16:31:08
Warnock for Forrest! do you want to come and take some of the dross you signed for us to Forrest?

According to YEP, an email from Cellino's solicitor to them says that the tax evasion charge against Cellino are a non starter
He doesn't own the yacht in question (a company he works for do) and under EU law he can keep it in Italian waters for up to 18 months without paying tax on it. His solicitor reckons that there is no case to answer. let's hope he's right then at least we can move forward
Ex England striker!. so is Jimmy Greaves and I reckon he'd be better than Heskey even aged 74!. come to think of it my nan would be better than Heskey!!!
I think MC will want to stop us losing money before he splashes any decent size cash on transfers
Funny how all of these guys have Leeds at heart. Mr Haigh and Mr Flowers. but don't seem to reluctant to want to issue 'winding up orders' against the club. Good riddance to both of you! I hope that MC pays him up and then persues the investigation into the 'spy cam's' affair
I think there is more chance of getting Fig Roll than Figo!. Has he he got any management experience, not even sure if he has his coaching badges?
What would be the point of an appeals procedure if the FL can just ignore it if they don't like the outcome?
I think if they did then MC would have very good grounds to sue the pants off them. Their decision was found to be flawed by and independent QC, so if they now blocked it, how would they defend it?
The FL's own rules say
82.15 The decision of the FAP shall be treated as a decision of The League and binding upon all the Clubs, Officials, Players and Agents.
So in my view its just a case of them rubber stamping it. the fact that they are waiting until Thursday just sums up their petty minded vindictiveness towards LUFC
