Flight from Annecy tomorrow, likely nothing but Maitland Niles has been a rumour before that would give us a lot more options.
1.) 01 Feb 2026 20:30:11
Another one from London as well.
2.) 02 Feb 2026 02:04:22
Seville now added. Hopefully have some deals done on Deadline Day!
3.) 02 Feb 2026 05:06:03
Any medicals booked?
4.) 02 Feb 2026 07:12:09
Akor Adams Fits the profile:
Powerful, 6 foot 3 striker known for his excellent physicality, aerial ability, and clinical close-range finishing. He excels at holding up the ball, making intelligent runs, and maintaining a high work rate.
5.) 02 Feb 2026 07:21:21
We have been linked with Ruben Vargas all window, could it finally be happening?
6.) 02 Feb 2026 08:01:50
Only medicals booked are to check how healthy Paraag's bank account is.
Results are back, it is in a very healthy state as he hasn't f'kin spent anything!
7.) 02 Feb 2026 08:23:17
Which has got to be positive for the club right MG?
8.) 02 Feb 2026 08:37:27
Not if we go down Alf.
16 Jul 2025 21:56:57
Flight from Nice tomorrow at East Leeds.
Breel Embolo would be nice!
1.) 16 Jul 2025 22:55:42
Don't need another injury prone striker.
2.) 16 Jul 2025 23:47:29
Not injury prone, had one bad season yes, over 40 games in multiple seasons in last 5 or so years.
3.) 17 Jul 2025 00:55:31
He's missed less than 10 games with injury in 2 seasons since 2018
He's injury prone and not at the level to be our main striker
Easy pass.
4.) 17 Jul 2025 09:17:14
Sorry Borat I don't get that missed 10 games since 2018 yet injury prone? Is that a typo.
5.) 17 Jul 2025 10:38:37
Not a typo, just misread
I said there have only been 2 seasons since 2018 where he's missed less than 10 league matches with injury
And he missed the entirety of the season before last.
6.) 17 Jul 2025 11:15:31
Right I understand now, forgive the oldie buddy.
7.) 17 Jul 2025 11:37:16
There’s been media stories linking us to two players who play for Nice - one of whom would be very nice - but of course there’s probably little substance to either link.
8.) 17 Jul 2025 13:04:34
Maybe you haven't accounted for Bundesliga and Ligue 1 playing less games a season Borat, as he has missed 5,29,2,5,3,6,14 league games by season so only 2 of the last 7 seasons has he missed more than 10 games. No clue if he was injured 7 years ago or wasn't a regular starter but certainly not what I'd call injury prone.
9.) 17 Jul 2025 20:50:43
I don't think for a minute there is anything in this Embolo link (is it even a link or just a comment that he's available and in our price range? ) But at £13m he must be worth a punt?
10.) 17 Jul 2025 21:27:52
Comment only.
11.) 18 Jul 2025 11:29:04
Lads just wait again until they are actually playing for us all paper talk and rumours I think like every year.
15 Jun 2025 13:31:12
Lukas Nmecha allegedly close to signing on a free.
Wasn't there some mention of him or his brother being at ER recently?
This could have legs to it.
1.) 15 Jun 2025 13:43:21
Yeah should be confirmed today. Him or his brother. I keep getting told it’s felix but lukas seems more plausible to me.
He failed his medical with a broken ankle but clearly they are still prepared to take a chance on him.
2.) 15 Jun 2025 15:06:02
Another player who won't play!
3.) 15 Jun 2025 15:59:37
It’s been confirmed it is Lukas.
4.) 15 Jun 2025 16:03:25
I take it he's the one that was taken to a different hospital after failing medical as reported a week or so back, could be a risk or a master stroke we shall see in the near future guys and gals.
5.) 15 Jun 2025 16:28:58
Yes, correct.
6.) 15 Jun 2025 17:18:05
My personal view is that he will prove to be a quality signing, and on a free!
7.) 15 Jun 2025 19:21:59
Agree bright. I think he will be something special and maybe even coax his brother to come and join us later as well.
8.) 15 Jun 2025 21:26:54
This is how transfers should be. Under the radar and just announced when completed. Let's hope there are several more pleasant surprises.
9.) 16 Jun 2025 12:47:42
seems it was Nmecha who had to get the second medical done. Bit of a dicey injury record so that's probably why they wanted a more thorough check.
31 Aug 2023 21:54:40
What happened to the Facundo Buonotte (or whatever the spelling is) rumours?
CAM still very much a need we haven't filled yet.
1.) 31 Aug 2023 22:44:56
There were suggestions that Buonotte may end up staying, following the injury to Julio Enciso, but the reported Ansu Fati loan from Barcelona may enable Brighton to loan out Buonotte afterall.
2.) 31 Aug 2023 22:51:19
Genuinely don’t think we need a 10, Farke has said he likes Summerville there and last game we had piroe and Rutter rotating in that role.
23 Aug 2023 21:15:35
According to Romano bid in for Nadiem Amiri.
Know nothing of him, anyone?
1.) 23 Aug 2023 22:02:24
Wikipedia has him a Leeds player already.
2.) 23 Aug 2023 22:39:40
Saw that Chris, very quick off the mark and funny too!
3.) 24 Aug 2023 07:01:29
Saw him score a cheeky back heel goal once.
4.) 24 Aug 2023 07:33:22
Absolutely no chance! He’s fairly regular starter for them, maybe less under Alonso but still too good for Championship. If he’s available, another Bundesliga side will get him.
5.) 24 Aug 2023 07:35:50
Seen articles giving him good stats per 90 mins, but he’s played only limited minutes - for example, last season he had 13 starts across league and cup competitions, and 23 sub appearances (including 2 v Farke’s Borussia Monchengladbach - getting the winning assist in the away match) and only completing 90 minutes 4 times) . To be fair, Leverkusen were stacked in midfield, and he had some decent competition for minutes.
Injury history shows one fairly lengthy layoff with a fatigue injury, a number of small niggles, but nothing other than CV and other sickness in last couple of seasons.
Seems to be very decent technically with a good range of passes - apparently similar attributes to Baz’s beloved Pablo Hernandez though with less pace, but better off the ball.
6.) 24 Aug 2023 08:16:13
Very interesting clue! Maybe we do have a chance of getting him!
7.) 24 Aug 2023 10:27:17
The latest reports from Sky sports say he wants to sign for Marseille, so I think we can forget about it, seemed unlikely anyway.
8.) 24 Aug 2023 17:17:58
I’ve just read some reports saying he’s actually agreed to join us and has signed a 4 year deal! Fee between €5-6m so about £4.5m in old money. If true could be an absolute steal!

Interesting article on BBC about VAR and on-field refereeing errors.
Backs up what we already know has been happening for years!
27 May 2026 17:17:59
I see Jimmy made the Dutch squad.
Let's hope he plays ASAP for them and we get paid one of the add-ons before WHU end up selling him.
1.) 27 May 2026 18:27:28.
How much is the add on?
£3 million? £5 million?
Useful money. ?
2.) 27 May 2026 19:40:48
Good luck to him, well deserved. Can't understand how that donkey Weghorst makes the squad tho.
3.) 27 May 2026 22:33:04
No idea of actual value, Baz, but certainly have seen 5 mill mentioned before.
Would be delighted with that.
4.) 28 May 2026 08:16:06
I've read that it's 4Mil, and that could come sooner than the World Cup, with the Netherlands set to play two friendlies next week, and if he is selected, it will activate that add-on clause.
5.) 28 May 2026 22:31:21
Not much, if anything, allegedly. Maybe a couple of hundred grand.
18 May 2026 19:26:05
So, let's say West Ham go down.
If they sell Jimmy before the WC and he hasn't played for Netherlands by then, I assume we won't get the add-on bonus?
If correct, we want them to stay up!
01 May 2026 22:43:36
Good 3 pts. But I have to say, that was one of the worst refereeing performances I've seen.
Tanaka was pushed and kicked so much it was a joke. But the one that really annoyed me was a great tackle by Longstaff given as a foul right in front of him. Pathetic display if you ask me.
1.) 01 May 2026 23:33:07
Totally agree, Canada, truly appalling refereeing. We think we have problems with VAR? Think again. Embarrassing officiating for Premiership standards.
In my mind, I'm thinking, how low can this go?
2.) 02 May 2026 05:40:44
In case anyone has forgotten, that was the same incompetent who gave Gabby a second yellow card in the Palace game, after forgetting he'd already given him one, but then let Brennan Johnson get away with 2 clear infringements, which together should have seen him get a red.
3.) 02 May 2026 07:06:57
Spot on, Canada! Yet another shocking joker! Where do they dig them up from?
4.) 02 May 2026 09:08:14
Never seen a ref be so quick to pull out a yellow card for the Leeds players!
Shouldn't be allowed to officiate a Leeds game again, especially after the 1st game!
Shocking!
5.) 02 May 2026 09:49:06
He carried on where he left off at Palace. Awful refereeing display.
06 Apr 2026 12:05:08
Having seen the pic of Stach's ankle, I'd be surprised if we see him again this season!
Fortunately, I'm no Dr, so could easily be wrong.
1.) 06 Apr 2026 12:39:57
I believe Leeds now have just two EPL matches this month of April, Man U away and the crucial home match vs Wolves.
(As Bournemouth away will be moved, I believe, to a later May date due to our Cup match vs Chelsea.)
Hopefully Gabi, definitely Rodon probably, are indeed available in 8 days' time for Man U.
And, as for Stach, he recovers by, say, early May, so misses only a couple of matches.
2.) 06 Apr 2026 12:58:32
Swelling can often make things look worse than they are. I've had worse than that and been back on my feet within days.
3.) 06 Apr 2026 13:10:13
Exactly ?, Alf.
4.) 06 Apr 2026 13:57:44
What you like on set pieces, Alf? Going to miss Stach big time if he's out.
5.) 06 Apr 2026 15:39:16
I have just seen that Leeds Utd were told that the penalty shoot out could not be done at the Leeds end. How can this be allowed? If it is a safety issue, then the game should not take place at that ground.
This is another kick at Leeds Utd fans, and I hope that Leeds Utd will be taking this matter up. Please don't let this slip.
{Ed001's Note - that happens all the time. It is not a Leeds thing.}
6.) 06 Apr 2026 16:32:17
Very un fair if that the case ED 001. Has to be changed they have the home advantage to Start with not point throwing the coin for anything just ask the home side to pick ??♂️a bit like VAR outdated.
{Ed001's Note - it is stupid but it has happened a number of times. It is usually the police that advise on it. Personally I think if they are not up to the job of ensuring there are no issues, they should really consider how they police the games, rather than creating unfair issues like this.}
7.) 06 Apr 2026 17:41:09
Ed001 fully agreed mate thanks
{Ed001's Note - very welcome mate. I understand your frustration, it does create an advantage.}
8.) 06 Apr 2026 22:31:44
I thought the routine was to have two coin tosses, one to decide which end to use and one to decide who goes first, or is that just used for internationals?
9.) 07 Apr 2026 10:13:55
They did in the end, JR, against safety advice. I clearly saw two coin tosses.
I had a post relegated to the discussion page, chaps.
10.) 07 Apr 2026 14:19:09
Thanks Aus, (eagle eyes) , I missed the 2nd coin toss.
11.) 08 Apr 2026 21:41:16
Set pieces definitely not one of my strengths (although getting my head on them was) . I'm much more adept at turning my ankle.
28 Jun 2026 00:18:31
Good profit, as he came as a kid, but it will cost us that to replace him without getting one of the freebies we've been linked to.
27 Jun 2026 21:40:47
Yup, lot of money for a bench warmer.
We need top players next season, not in three years' time.
26 Jun 2026 18:27:04
Need to start selling some wingers before we take in another imo.
24 Jun 2026 16:28:18
If anyone was to buy him, I'd want it to be them.
They seriously overpay quite often!
21 Jun 2026 23:17:59
Flight left Cardiff at 09:05 and landed at LBA at 09:42.
28 Jun 2026 23:15:17
Yup, I expected last 32 due to being at home and no top seed in group, but no further. Got lucky that SA snook through, but that should be the end of Canada.
28 Jun 2026 20:31:02
He's a great diver, we'd get a few more penalties with him playing. ?
28 Jun 2026 15:07:07
We have got more than top dollar for what you believe is a useless player!
You can't eat your cake and have it too, Aus, so pick one. We sold cheap, or he's not very good anyway.
You're probably upset that we won't be paying Fulham a fee for Wilson, which must mean he's not that good either!
28 Jun 2026 13:28:37
Because we are in a no win situation, Aus.
He can stay and leave for nothing in a year, padding his own pocket and messing up ours.
Win-win, selling him now for a decent fee.
28 Jun 2026 12:44:40
Come on Aus, 5 million short you say for a player you have slammed many, many times?
If he's as bad as you have stated, you should be saying it's the best business we've ever done!
