Anybody know why there is press speculation that the players aren't going to be paid today with the PFA on red alert? Is there any truth or is it just the press trying to sell papers?
1.) I would imagine it is to do with the clubs bank account being frozen due to the winding up order due to be heard june 9th, probably speculating because of that. Perhaps MC has something in place to sort it through some other way, doubt he would want not to pay them.
2.) Also has meeting has been called and reporters have assumed it is due to none payment. I can't see mc calling people back from hoiliday to say he ain't paying them, I think it will be about brian going and to introduce them to the new manager benito carboni who has been very vocal recently. if this is the case will be dissapointed brain has to go but many managers much better than benito still must be given a chance I guess mot
3.) Because the clubs bank account is frozen and FL rules say that players cannot be paid from a personal account

Eddie Gary is king is correct though club working hard to unfreeze accounts

Where are today's Jermaine Beckfords to be found?
1.) 16 Jul 2026 20:50:40
They are out there, it's up to the recruitment team and scouts to find them.
2.) 17 Jul 2026 22:46:56
League One is full of them, Cjs!

Let me display my ignorance by asking, what's the point of a defender taking a goal kick by passing to the goalie who hoofs it upfield?
1.) 20 Jun 2026 18:54:33
All I can think is, with defender being there, the other team stay forward to press, creating more space for where the keeper passes to.

I'm 71 but think I could put on a better display than Leeds are doing. ?
1.) 24 May 2026 17:57:43
No, what I want to see just goes to show we need to sort this lot out. Very poor show. Thank God it's the end.
2.) 24 May 2026 18:12:29
Cjs, totally agree. Horrible performance, very little effort applied, glad I didn't pay out of my pocket to go watch that muck.
Safe home those who did. ?

Absolutely dog doodoo, gutted to finish with that performance.
West Ham are a bad team, but we were far worse than them today.. Unacceptable. ?
4.) 24 May 2026 18:28:26
Baz, mate, agreed. Cc agreed. What a poor performance.
5.) 24 May 2026 18:50:13
Missing key players today, but not a performance I recognise from this group, and travelling supporters deserved better.
Probably a blessing in disguise though, as it showed how short we are in terms of squad strength, and possibly 7:8 in today's squad may not, should not, be with us next season.
6.) 24 May 2026 20:09:08
We are short on depth. Who did we bring on as subs today? Buananotte, who's done nothing all season (including Chelsea) , Piroe and James, who are good at Championship level but can't bridge the gap to the PL, Bournauw, who is steady but is found out by the pace and intensity of the PL, and Willie G, who I like but doesn't fit into the way we currently set up.
It makes me compare it to rugby union squads. Those teams that do well are those that bring the impact players off the bench.
If the current injury scenario had hit us three months ago, we'd maybe be going down because we lack the depth of squad that's required in the Premier League.
7.) 24 May 2026 22:57:35
That was a good enough side to do a lot better, especially with the pressure on West Ham.
10 May 2026 18:32:54
Thank you VAR. ?

Spent the last nearly two hours just looking at BBC Sport on my phone. Bloody Arsenal put 9 goals past us, but scraped through v West Ham. But, we are safe. All that matters. Now go out and play v Spurs.
2.) 10 May 2026 18:49:31
Agreed.
It was such an obvious foul.
14 Apr 2026 19:33:42
Yes, a brilliant win last night, a night to remember. But wasn't anyone concerned about the goals we should have, but didn't score?
1.) 14 Apr 2026 20:37:06
Erm, no!
2.) 14 Apr 2026 21:02:35
It's a fair point, CJ, but we've been profligate in front of goal for the past couple of seasons now.
It will only matter when we lose (unfortunately) .

Beating 3rd in the league at their ground, when we have one of the worst away records in the league, not only 3rd place but a long rival, and a team that hasn't lost at home since the new manager arrived, and you want me to be concerned on the chance we missed?
I find it hard to believe that the decision on how much to pay a player is Mr Hockadays decision to make!
Think if this is true then we will see Ross go to pay for them, seems like this is the way MC operates.
Not that anyone can do anything about it yet, but at least if it comes true then Jeff's stastics will improve!
Think its more likely that Carbone is here for the first team coach's position, soon to be made vacant. For all those who say we'll never get someone to fill a coaches role because who would want to be less than a manager, I say we'll find someone who is used to operating that way and there are plenty of them just not the big names Leeds fans think we deserve.
What make anyone think BMD will be involved in any aspect of player recruitment?
31 Jul 2026 15:47:18
Seem to think we got him for a record fee of, wait for it, £165, 000. That's a week's wage for some of today's prima donnas!
06 Jul 2026 12:18:32
Isn't the bigger issue that he injured his wrist, but had to have a stretcher to leave the pitch? No wonder they act like they've been shot when someone touches them!
16 Jun 2026 10:50:13
Shame there's been some appalling football played on them!
02 Jun 2026 10:38:59
And....?
15 Mar 2026 14:53:41
Don't look quite as bad as the ref. He is clueless!
