Hamer on the rumour mill merry-go-round again I see.
1.) 13 Jan 2026 22:23:14
Yeah 6mil apparently. Seems cheap in sure we were asked to pay around £13m when we were interested.
2.) 13 Jan 2026 23:15:07
He wouldn't last 15 minutes at this pace and regardless of goals, Hamer wouldn't fit in to the team.
I wouldn't play him over BA.
3.) 14 Jan 2026 03:34:30
Yeah. Pass on him now.
4.) 14 Jan 2026 12:33:19
shows how much BA has improved of late.
05 Aug 2025 09:09:21
AMN back on the rumours list at around 13, if true I think would be a decent purchase as can cover both back positions.
1.) 05 Aug 2025 23:35:22
Think I'd prefer Justin to AMN, but he's rumoured to be an Everton target.
03 Jul 2025 10:21:52
Perri agreed terms with Galatasaray reported.
24 Jun 2025 10:55:07
Rumour about Calvert-Lewin, better get medical room expanded, don't you just love click bait garbage.
1.) 24 Jun 2025 13:52:37
havent seen that - what is the source oldBri?
2.) 24 Jun 2025 14:56:49
News now.
3.) 24 Jun 2025 14:59:11
So not really a source as 99% is crap and ???.
4.) 24 Jun 2025 15:01:06
And it is on LeedsUnited. news.
5.) 25 Jun 2025 08:43:58
He's a very talented player, but unless he's free, and Keir Starmer redirects the cash from pensioners, and welfare for his salary, then he's too big a risk with our own injury track record!
6.) 25 Jun 2025 22:38:01
Thanks Oldbri.
7.) 25 Jun 2025 22:38:36
He would be free Brighton but he would still want a salary!
21 May 2025 09:31:09
Apparently Angel Gomes is on our radar.
1.) 21 May 2025 18:22:46
quality on a free appartently.

This Trafford transfer saga must be the longest in football history, I understand that there are many things to iron out but for goodness sake.
1.) 04 Aug 2026 17:37:15
Just the longest since the last one, Bri! ?
2.) 04 Aug 2026 18:04:41
That was us as well, Bright. ?
3.) 04 Aug 2026 20:17:31
Lol! Yep! Probably! ??
4.) 04 Aug 2026 20:19:50
No other club in the league gets walked upon like Leeds.
Need to be more forceful, quicker, to get stuff done.
Underwood is not the man to take Leeds forward. I said it last year, I'll say it again, he's too nice.
5.) 04 Aug 2026 20:33:43
Absolutely, LLF. We agree, relegation clauses, players on loan with no obligation to buy, don't get good prices on most sales, pay top dollar on some buys, pursue players who string us along, and hand expensive contracts out to players who are at the back end of their careers.
Apart from that, I think Underwood is doing a good job. ?
6.) 04 Aug 2026 21:00:10
Dune and LLF, absolutely.
7.) 04 Aug 2026 23:48:48
Last Summer, you were all saying how bad our transfer window was. By the end of the season, almost all signings got rave reviews.
It's Summer again. The transfer window feels exactly the same, but he's again getting slated, yet what has been delivered so far looks good.
Maybe, have some faith that they know what they're doing?
8.) 05 Aug 2026 02:50:59
I thought the signings were ok last year, but they still took ages. It's not normal.
9.) 05 Aug 2026 08:35:31
There is a triangle of transfers going on, which is causing the delay of Trafford's signing, which includes Citeh's signing of a replacement keeper and Torino's signing of Perri.
I can see why this creates frustration with some fans. To see ourselves as victims of unfairness or problematic issues on the funny side is okay, but to see us seriously like that is not helpful to the club in general, and mainly to ourselves. Always believing and labeling our club and its supporters as losers, I believe, has a very negative impact.
Some of us are very good as fans at praising how good someone is at our club, whether that's a player, manager, owner, or head of recruitment, then almost in the same breath say how useless they are.
Why?
Flip-flopping sentiments unnecessarily like this all the time does what for our club?
Or is it just moaning for moaning sake only?
10.) 05 Aug 2026 08:45:13
Do any of you actually know his specific remit? The limits of his influence / where the buck stops? For all we know, these frustrations could be targeted at entirely the wrong person, but hey: "Ready - Fire - Aim", eh?
11.) 05 Aug 2026 09:32:37
If I had invented a time machine and landed back here reading these "transfer window" comments, I would have to assume my time machine hadn't worked - so utterly repeatable are the comments year on year.
17 Jul 2026 23:04:01
Why do we mostly seem to struggle with goalies? Perri was quite well ranked before he joined us, so is it the actual players or are our goalkeeping coaching staff persons. I don't know, but I just wonder how a goalie as good as Perri was rated and a good number of posters on here (not all I must add) were pleased when he came, yet suddenly he is rubbish.
I know he has made some errors but he has made some good stops as well, so do we get rid and spend a shed load of Dosh on a replacement or stick with him? Sometimes it's better the devil we know, but also a new broom sweeps clean.
My concern is all we have barr Perri is Cairns and sorry but he is a number 3 at best, personally I would keep Perri but I expect to be in the minority on that.
1.) 18 Jul 2026 00:42:57
I'm a bit baffled with Perri. He had a good reputation, but clearly needs work. Whether we give him another chance or not, we still have to buy a good enough keeper to be a starter.
2.) 18 Jul 2026 01:08:03
I'd keep Perri, but we need another at least as good as Darlow to compete with him for the No 1 spot. However, good Trafford is, I'd not expend £30M plus of our limited budget on him. If we could get him for £25M (some hope) , I might be tempted, but I'd reject any suggestion of a buyback clause.
3.) 18 Jul 2026 08:27:05
Agree with the comments re Perri. I've never viewed him as a lost cause and hoped that he needed some time to get used to the different requirements in the Premier League.
He was ok in the cup run, so hopefully the coaching staff had put some work in.
If he does go, then it has to be a transfer or a loan with an obligation to buy.
4.) 18 Jul 2026 09:51:38
Perri's big problem is his distribution. It's terrible. It was s**** at Lyon and hasn't improved at Leeds. I was amazed DF signed off on his transfer.
5.) 18 Jul 2026 17:24:16
Good as Darlow. ?♂️ No, no, it's got to be better.
06 Jul 2026 08:45:53
So Henderson has badly injured his wrist celebrating, a recent post talked about this so it seems it was bound to happen, maybe just maybe players and more importantly subs will think twice before jumping all over each other and climbing on advertising hoardings, which aren't designed for standing on, but no it will carry on regardless and someone will get a career threatening injury. ??
1.) 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!
2.) 06 Jul 2026 13:37:27
Good point, CJS. Private health cover, I reckon. ?
3.) 06 Jul 2026 17:54:04
You want to watch the Joe Westerman video when he puts his knee cap back into place, tells the physio to go and carries on playing. Suppose he didn't have private health cover.
4.) 06 Jul 2026 19:36:58
Don't be too quick to judge. Traumatic injuries like that can cause shock and oxygen deficit, which is bad news where the air is 10% thinner - that's probably why they put him on oxygen.
03 May 2026 15:44:26
Apparently Isak is out with a very small groin.
Shame.
Sorry, very small groin problem.
Me and my typing skills ?.
1.) 03 May 2026 17:16:41
Lol, Bri!
2.) 03 May 2026 17:59:38
A small groin has never stopped me bringing.
Anyway, it's what you do with it!
29 Mar 2026 22:09:28
44 days the same as Clough still not sure which was the worst decision, hiring Cloughy of firing him ??.
1.) 29 Mar 2026 22:28:11
Hiring Clough (esp without Peter Taylor) was worst.
2.) 30 Mar 2026 15:08:17
After his well-known insults directed at Revie's team, he should have never got near the job. Johnny Giles was the man to take over.
3.) 30 Mar 2026 18:11:30
Definitely, Feath.
Clough may well have worked another couple of years down the line (as Baz said, needed Peter Taylor with him) .
28 Aug 2026 21:41:09
I'm a fan of Elliott, but we don't need another midfielder.
28 Aug 2026 10:26:41
Tell him to shove it.
14 Jul 2026 10:03:35
Sell a few of the deadwood, get a few bob, save on their extortionate salary, maybe we can afford some reasonably priced players.
27 Jun 2026 19:59:16
No, but 2 medicals.
23 May 2026 09:13:02
Agree, JR, my only problem with our recruitment team is sometimes they dilly dally. Not that all reports are true by a long stretch, but if DF wants Elliot then get stuck in now, don't wait till someone else makes a bigger offer. I am a tad biased, though, as I have always liked Elliot.
17 Aug 2026 22:55:01
15th, but easily safe.
16 Aug 2026 22:06:54
BS but detailed.
16 Aug 2026 09:53:57
Now that's a detailed post.
14 Aug 2026 16:17:28
Hire bodyguards.
07 Aug 2026 07:33:33
Let's not jump on JT, as he has in the past and will, in the future, make mistakes. He is a class keeper, and is (eventually) a great signing for this club.
I still think Perri could have been a very good keeper, but he needed time to adjust to the PL, same as Bournauw, who is starting to show his worth but was heavily criticized on here.
