Following on from the signings of DCL and Okafor, our next signing will be a new physio.
19 Dec 2024 12:32:38
Taken from the BBC Football gossip page. Personally I'd agree with Farke, worth keeping Paddy until the end of the season unless he wants to leave then let him go.
Leeds forward Patrick Bamford, 31, is attracting interest from Serie A club Genoa and League One side Wrexham, but the Englishman is unlikely to leave in January with manager Daniel Farke wanting attacking depth for a promotion push.
1.) 19 Dec 2024 14:00:18
Leeds are looking at cleaning house to bring in some fresh talent seems as we're so close to, at least, automatic promotion.
2.) 19 Dec 2024 14:32:31
Attacking depth?
PB zero goals zero assists this season
So no incoming CF signing in Jan then?
3.) 20 Dec 2024 09:43:04
Wow. Amazing stats you’ve plucked there Baz. 90mins in the cup, 192 minutes total this season, the longest league appearance of which was 25mins. All of the initial appearances on return from injury. I suppose the MAX contributions under those circumstances that could be expected is one or maybe two……
Utterly pointless observation.
4.) 20 Dec 2024 10:57:11
Hmm so Brighteth would you like a new CF in Jan window or not?
Because PB is no longer even 25% of the PB of 20/ 21 . injuries, loss of confidence, regression,
He is done fella and ain't attacking depth . however many mins he plays
Get real.
5.) 20 Dec 2024 17:35:44
Real is entirely what my comment was regarding your post. That’s real.
Of course we need a new striker, and I’ve written as much on enough occasions. (Enough being 2 or 3, not your own preferred umpteen…)
As someone else said in a separate thread, BamBam is the only big name I would be allowing to leave in Jan if an opportunity arises for him to move on. Better for us, and better for him, and he would leave with Thanks from most fans.
6.) 20 Dec 2024 18:10:29
Yep agreed Bright ; a fair post from yer; refreshing.
7.) 21 Dec 2024 12:37:45
Very gracious of you! ??.
8.) 26 Dec 2024 09:22:54
Oh Koch you gone and done it now Aus will be on his war path with that post.
04 Jun 2024 16:30:02
Gruev to Dortmund? £30m rumoured? Prem teams sniffing around? Bite their hands off, we'll have gray and amps back in midfield next season. Gruev did superb after Xmas on the run, thanks for the memories.
Just hope it doesn't mean we're getting Kalvin back.
1.) 04 Jun 2024 20:49:02
Where you hear £30m, mate? Haven't read a number in any of the articles I've read. And if £30m I'd drive him to LBA myself ?.
2.) 04 Jun 2024 21:16:31
The oracle that is Facebook Dil, must be true.
3.) 05 Jun 2024 07:13:42
Club are asking for 15-20m to consider selling him. Even at 20m, I would expect there to be add ons; still young, still a lot of potential there to go on to bugger and better things, based on his break through form, not when he was told to slow things down.
4.) 05 Jun 2024 11:21:37
Bugger!?!? Pmsl! ???.
5.) 06 Jun 2024 00:54:25
Not sure about letting him go. Was very good for a while. Has got heaps of potential and as you say bright still young. Would have to be 20 plus. Could get decent enough replacement for 20.
6.) 09 Jun 2024 11:41:34
Gruev is solid in midfield, plays smart, fast football, is accurate with passes, even those at angles Jimmy White would wince at, and is often a solid wall stopping their attackers.
Kamara on the other hand.
23 Jan 2024 12:44:32
A question that popped up in my local LU committee meeting on Saturday night in my local fiine ale house. Have we recieved all the money from Barcelona for Rapha? Have they managed to pull their 574th financial lever yet?
1.) 23 Jan 2024 13:34:11
Doubt it Koch.
That’s why we are in such dire ffp territory and have no money to buy and are looking for loans. At the right price of course.
11 Jul 2023 22:31:42
Rumours are saying we won't be signing Mr Edwards this year, missed out on what could've been a bargain £35k for a young hungry 17 year old.
1.) 11 Jul 2023 22:40:54
ILK ?. I remember Keith. What a finisher. At least the Beeb has an accurate acronym.

Just watched the highlights from the game the other night, I honestly believe we should lay off Zetterer. Their goals wer perfectly placed, Zetterer was blind sided by 2 LU defenders for Palmers 2nd and Welbecks 2nd was a massive deflection. He did seem to have boots of lead, he didn't dive but he would have not saved many of the goals from going in.
Hate to say it but Chelsea's superiorioty shone through, 1/2 time subs simply out powered & classed us. If we'd started with our 1st team and been 2 or 3 up at HT then it could've been a different result.
We move onto Monday night, play our first team and I'm sure it'll be a different performance.
1.) 11 Sep 2026 12:19:01
We are Leeds United, a great club.
Leeds United need and deserve better than a number 2 who "he did seem to have boots of lead."
Even Farke called Zet out in his press conference for not diving, and for not trying to save the 2nd goal, etc.
Just as with Perri, who Farke also called out publicly, it looks like neither were on Farke's wanted list.
2.) 11 Sep 2026 13:37:09
You don't know that, Baz.
Agree with Koch, they were all unsavable goals, maybe the 5th? But I doubt it.
Farke's comment was meant in the sense that you have to look like you are trying even if you know you are not going to save the shot, and I totally agree with that.
He had the proverbial nightmare for any goalkeeper on his debut and you have to feel sorry for him. I doubt very much Trafford would've saved any of those perfectly placed shots.
Trafford was lucky he wasn't playing in that game.
His save from Gittens on his inside post was a very good reaction.
If you want to blame any players, then it should be the defenders, as Farke said in his interview, "they were not switched on" and didn't react fast enough.
In the end, no individual player was to blame in this game, just a random Cup game with a freak result.
It's better not to dwell on it and certainly not to pick out Zetterer as the sole blame.
3.) 11 Sep 2026 14:04:47
Some managers never call out their players publicly, always preferring to take the blame themselves at press conferences
Farke never blames himself publicly, and rarely calls out any of his players, but when he does do so, OP, you can bet they are destined for bench warming at best.
And, if Trafford isn't saving the 2nd, and especially the 5th, goal, I would be seriously questioning a whopping £45 million outlay.
4.) 11 Sep 2026 16:58:23
Spot on regarding DF Baz.
5.) 11 Sep 2026 15:54:46
But he is the bench warming keeper and will spend most of his season on it unless Trafford is injured.
Don't worry Baz we all know how you love to dig Keepers out.
6.) 11 Sep 2026 17:32:15
Indeed, Corkey, it's so true re DF .. Farke never takes the blame at pressers for his team's or player's failings.
7.) 11 Sep 2026 17:36:46
Yes, OP.. But the point is, will Zet be here next seez, or be bombed out like Perri?
And, I appreciate good Leeds United keepers.. thankfully there's been plenty over the years, apart from some of the recent ones.
8.) 11 Sep 2026 19:20:02
Bombed out? I don't think so. Perri came to Leeds expecting to be the number one keeper, sadly for him it didn't work out, which happens, so he wanted to leave and now has.
Zetterer has arrived at Leeds United knowing he is only going to be back up to Trafford.
I know it's difficult for you to understand these things, Baz, perhaps try not to look at everything football in a black and white context, there are reasons why certain situations arrive, and they are not always as simple as you want to make them out.
9.) 11 Sep 2026 19:43:16
It was reported for months that Zet wanted to stay in Germany, with Frankfurt competing to be number 1.
So, it's not exactly unlikely, OP, that the number 2 Leeds United gig doesn't exactly float his boat. #short-term move for Zet.
So, next summer, leaving of his own volition, or eased out, or even bombed out by the then Leeds management. Either way, I doubt Zet stays beyond this seez.
Think it through very carefully, OP. ?
10.) 11 Sep 2026 20:17:35
Baz, I already did. Have a splendid evening and a wonderful weekend.
11.) 11 Sep 2026 21:36:31
Two things.
Perri will be back at ER next pre season.
Farke will never ever take responsibility.
12.) 11 Sep 2026 21:48:01
Two things Cork, how do you know that ?
and sounds like you have your your own personal dislike of Farke, what kind of manager do you want, a perfect Prince Charming ?
13.) 12 Sep 2026 06:30:00
OP, you seem to get way too worked up about posts contrary to your beliefs. It means nothing what's said on this site, just fellas giving their opinions, that's all.
Nothing depends on it.
Nothing will ever get done by it.
Nothing will ever get changed by it.
Baz will never change your mind.
You'll never change Baz mind.
14.) 12 Sep 2026 09:33:47
Op, unless Perri has an outstanding season in Italy, he most likely will be back at Leeds for preseason.
I have nothing against Farke. I was just agreeing with Baz's statement that he never takes accountability after a defeat.
For instance, he would never admit that he picked the wrong team or the wrong tactics. And he definitely would never say that maybe he waited too long to make substitutions!
15.) 12 Sep 2026 09:56:34
I'm pretty sure Daniel Farke has openly stated, after certain results, that the blame lay with him. That's based on memory, tho, rather than Google addiction!
16.) 12 Sep 2026 10:18:04
Yes, Corkey.. Perri will be back next summer..
But then he'll be shipped out again on loan or sold.
And, yes, Corkey, OP is wrong. It's nowt personal re Farke, but a valid, factual critique.
Good post, Chris.. but OP may yet see the light.
17.) 12 Sep 2026 10:50:28
No, it's not factual criticism. Look, I'm sure he's admitted occasionally that he's got the odd thing wrong, but which manager do you know openly throws himself under the bus, especially a team that is fighting to stay in the Premiership? That would be like shooting himself in his own foot.
A manager's existence in the EPL is difficult enough as it is. You can forgive him sometimes, can you not, if he doesn't fall on his own sword every match day.
You blokes really don't get it, do you, and Chris, what's wrong with making banter on a banter site? Am I not allowed to have an opinion of my own about someone else's opinion, or is that not the done thing on this forum.
It's banter, it's debate, who says I am right all the time?
It's all opinions, is it not, who cares who is right or wrong.
18.) 12 Sep 2026 11:40:25
Chris what a great post,
100% agree.
It's his view/ opinion because he knows everything no one knows nothing he should be on a site call I am so right you're so wrong because you know nothing I am never wrong.
You have to feel sorry for people like that is sad really.
19.) 12 Sep 2026 13:10:44
Get over it, Whiteman, and post something useful about football.
20.) 12 Sep 2026 14:09:42
Dead right, OP. Banter and opinions are what this is all about.
21.) 12 Sep 2026 14:54:44
Appreciate that Corkey, there is nothing personal going down, how could there be, we are all strangers here that happen to be Leeds fans. I have nothing against anyone on here who has a different opinion to mine, in fact, I am happy for it, there would be little to post about otherwise.
Whether anyone likes or dislikes my opinions, it really does not matter.
It is just Banter.
22.) 12 Sep 2026 15:26:10
Agree. All above. ?
23.) 12 Sep 2026 16:46:31
Well, I think you're all just wrong and misguided, bless you. Fact.
24.) 12 Sep 2026 18:01:56
OP, I will if you can any time soon.
25.) 12 Sep 2026 18:12:16
Bright, in hindsight we all probably are, but we can see others' posts as opinions, and freely express them. Most of us can say that we are not experts, but are still Leeds fans. We all have views, which are clearly expressed in the stands week in, week out.
Some do question Farke as a manager, some say he's great, but never have I yet met a Mr Right, and I will never expect someone else's views other than my own. I think I know what could happen if there ever was one.
26.) 12 Sep 2026 18:13:38
I being honest here, OP, I not being smart with my post, just I find that you seem to get a bit excited at times with some posts, in all its forms I like banter and taking zee urine for a giggle.
So I certainly not saying what you think, pal.
27.) 12 Sep 2026 18:37:33
To be clear, taking zee urine is exactly what I was doing above!
28.) 12 Sep 2026 19:12:16
As Chris, Whitey, Corkey said, it's a bit of banter amongst us. Enjoy it.
29.) 12 Sep 2026 23:06:26
I obviously didn't say, it's only banter, but I agree with you, Auntie Baz.
19 Aug 2026 13:07:25
How do chaps!
I've just seen that the former Rangers star player Ryan Kent is available on a free after leaving Seattle Sounders. Anyone think he could be worth a punt? ?.
1.) 19 Aug 2026 14:33:45
Probably in a queue, but I'd go half pint first. Negotiate.
2.) 20 Aug 2026 07:56:03
Love the new shirt. I got the away shirt as a birthday present, but my idiot son-in-law thought I was a 3XL, whereas I'm XL. So, if there is anybody on here who is 60 and is named Tony (rear of shirt detail) and is 3Xl, and would like to make an offer, please do, as it's like a Mark F on me.
1 up from Marquee. :-)
02 Jul 2026 20:49:51
Have any of you travelled to watch Castellon? What airport would you leave from and fly into? Then train or car? I'm wanting to go with my son to pay homage to Pablo.
1.) 02 Jul 2026 23:21:03
He'd probably prefer Disneyland.
2.) 03 Jul 2026 01:27:56
Never been there myself, but it looks like a flight to Valencia followed by a train would be your best bet. It's about 45 miles up the coast.
3.) 03 Jul 2026 08:45:46
His son is 38, Cork! ?
4.) 03 Jul 2026 10:21:31
Haha, close, Feath, he's 37 1/2 actually.
5.) 03 Jul 2026 19:50:24
I'm 54 and love Disneyland!
29 Jun 2026 23:56:07
Just watching the Germany Paraguay game and the Paraguay keeper looks impressive. Good feet, good command of his area and good distribution. Worth a cheeky bid?
25 May 2026 15:46:32
6 points off Brighton who qualified for Europe. What could have been if we started the season like we ended it?
If Palace win their European trophy, then there'll be 10 English teams in Europe next season. Most of those teams, I suspect, won't have the squad depth for competing on all fronts, probably prioritise Europe.
I think we can take advantage of that, the right players recruited and finish higher up the league than this year.
MOT.
1.) 25 May 2026 22:36:54
It will be a lot like this season, where we will have a lot of Sunday games because of all the teams in Europe.
If you look at the start of this season, because of the above, we had long gaps between games, and I'm convinced it was a disadvantage; we never got any momentum.
04 Jun 2024 21:16:31
The oracle that is Facebook Dil, must be true.
07 Dec 2023 16:26:39
Don't think he'll want to be playing in League 1 or 2 next season.
18 Sep 2026 11:32:56
Pleased for them both, not surprised that Bogle wasn't included, he must be banging on the door though.
If Trafford wants the number 1 slot he needs to work on getting the ball out of his feet a lot quicker when under pressure, international forwards won't give him as must time. Everything else in his game is pointing towards taking over from the T-Rex.
08 Sep 2026 12:50:51
Remember it well, was there in with the monkey hanger fans. I'm sure many other Leeds fans were in there with me as could spot you all a mile off
09 Jul 2026 13:16:07
Wash your mouth out Corky!
03 Jul 2026 10:21:31
Haha, close, Feath, he's 37 1/2 actually.
10 Jun 2026 19:41:01
That could open up citeh to a number of claims if/when they are charged for their 115 financial irregularities. Millions and millions in potential fines.
