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.

Without goals we can't win. DCL is struggling at the moment, so we have to look at other options — maybe Piroe, maybe a false 9, anything. I know some on here will say he's our top scorer and he was top English striker, but when did he last hit the net? If we keep drawing matches it's likely we will get relegated, so no rose tinted glasses, chaps.
Be honest, we are in a dog fight. That's my opinion, not that some give a toss about my opinion as clearly stated in the past.
1.) 22 Mar 2026 13:59:40
When were we ever not in a dog fight for this season?
2.) 22 Mar 2026 14:01:55
Great post OB.
Piroe is our best natural finisher. Start him with DCL and Okafor for the Cup quarter final and next EPL home match vs Wolves.
3.) 22 Mar 2026 14:17:04
None of what you said there, OB, is nonsense, so don't put yourself down. My own biggest concern is the creation of clear chances for DCL. There were zero yesterday. Nor was there anyone close enough to him to feed off his aerial strengths.
Love Piroe and his close season endeavours to come back our fittest player, but he can't lead the line in the way that's needed right now. I would, however, have him playing off Dom's shoulder in a straight 2 upfront.
4.) 22 Mar 2026 14:17:15
Well said, Bri.
5.) 22 Mar 2026 14:27:48
Totally agree, Brighty. Unfortunately, Piroe will only be up front with DCL for the last ten minutes of games when we are losing, alongside all our other forwards, because DF is chucking the kitchen sink. Tactical genius he is?!
6.) 22 Mar 2026 22:59:34
Agree regarding Piroe, he might just be the man to get us scoring again. 7 points required for me.
05 Mar 2026 09:08:16
To much relying on other results, we should look at our scores not others. I understand that we have dropped points due to bad refs and strange VAR decisions, but we are not alone in that respect. I can't understand the reason though for playing defensively or as people say going for a draw.
1.) 05 Mar 2026 10:48:14
Are we playing defensively?
We are still three points out of the relegation zone with a superior goal difference.
The situation is still in our hands. What's the problem?
21 Feb 2026 23:03:07
Rumour we will have 100 million to spend in the summer that's nearly one player off City or Chelsea or 2/ 3 of issak take that you bounders.
1.) 22 Feb 2026 00:01:57
If that's true, Oldbri, then I think we can expect 3 or 4 top-quality signings for £100 million, plus a loan or two, that will improve our current squad considerably and, imo, see us secure mid-table next season, maybe a chance of a Europa Conference spot.
2.) 22 Feb 2026 01:08:56
I read yesterday that Chelsea are looking at Delemba, but may have to go against their transfer policy to secure him. What transfer policy is that then?
3.) 22 Feb 2026 01:20:48
No more loans please.
4.) 22 Feb 2026 07:28:54
Oldbri, you forgot to add that they are also considering sacking DF for a younger, aggressive manager in the same article.
5.) 22 Feb 2026 08:31:01
Daniel Farke has made Leeds very, very hard to play against. Yesterday he staved Villa of movement in the middle, got his tactics spot, and the team are playing for each other. Well done to him.
6.) 22 Feb 2026 08:50:28
Yeah, that's right, Whiteman, but if we stay up, DF definitely deserves to stay. As for the money, it was a tongue-in-cheek dig at the crazy amounts some teams pay for individual players, and I agree, CW.
We have the basis of a strong PL team, but we're not there yet, and we don't want to get silly and spoil what we have next season. We're in the Premiership and need to build carefully and wisely to ensure we stay there.
7.) 22 Feb 2026 09:56:45
Fully agree, Oldbri, but it just goes to show it's not just the fans. They are expressing their opinions.
04 Feb 2026 11:06:09
Fingers crossed for Dominic Matteo, emergency surgery on a brain tumour.
1.) 04 Feb 2026 17:31:30
Awful news, let's hope all goes well. Thoughts and prayers with Dom and his family. ?.
02 Feb 2026 17:27:16
Right I shall only say this once, I have lost all faith in our recruitment team and DF, I shall be delighted if we stay in the premiership but other teams have strengthened their squad where we stagnate. If Underwood is still our numero Uno recruiter next season then Mr Parag needs something shoving where the sun doesn't shine.
I am absolutely devastated that all we have is 1 loan signing and a youngster, pathetic and unacceptable. I know I sound like a broken record sometimes but I just can't see anything to shout about, not that I will stop cheering and supporting our club come rain or shine.
That's it rant over done and dusted.
1.) 02 Feb 2026 17:34:34
With you 100% OldBri, I’m fuming as it stands with no additional striker or cover for CB etc etc.
If nothing happens and we end up in the bottom 3, then it has to be mass protests to get the yanks out of Leeds. Their lack of desire to invest in the squad is criminal.
2.) 02 Feb 2026 17:50:28
Oldbri it’s not just a case of making up the numbers as far as bringing in players, they also have to be the right players and not at crazy over inflated prices.
Otherwise there is no sense whatsoever to deal in this window.
As I’ve already stated in an earlier post, we did all our business that we needed to in the summer and we have even strengthened with an attacking midfielder.
Me personally I’m very happy and will be supporting my football team to do the business without weak statements that some blurt out of, "if I’m proven wrong I’ll put my hands up"
Who cares?
3.) 02 Feb 2026 17:57:03
I share your sentiment Oldbri, it's a massive gamble to not add to the squad in Jaunary after our underwhelming recruitment in the summer, if we get relegated, there will be an uprising. We have seen how hard it is to get into the Premier League, they should be throwing 'every last penny' to stay there!
4.) 02 Feb 2026 17:59:30
If DCL gets injured then it will turn bleak I guess?
5.) 02 Feb 2026 18:25:23
Can't help but wonder if nothing significant will occur until we survive in the premier League. Then new manager/ better players etc etc.
6.) 02 Feb 2026 19:15:05
West Ham losing on Saturday means realistically
38 points will be more than enough to survive so I think our owners probably aren't feeling the same sense of urgency as most supporters do to make a couple of new additions to the squad today and think we have enough to finish at least 17th.
I think that even allowing for injuries Leeds will be able to get at least 14 points from our remaining 14 games that includes home games against Forest, Man City, Sunderland, Brentford, Wolves, Burnley and Brighton.
Looking at those fixtures I personally think we can expect to win 4 of those, draw a couple and lose one so there's the 14 more points plus whatever we get away from home against Chelsea, Villa, Palace, Man U, Bournmouth, Spurs and West Ham which I think we can expect at least one win and a couple of draws so that would mean in total we finish the season with 45 points.
7.) 02 Feb 2026 20:16:56
Sorry OP but if you are satisfied with the recruitment as we sit just outside the relegation zone you are easily pleased and need to scratch the 2nd half of your username, but I respect your opinion as I hope you respect mine.
8.) 02 Feb 2026 21:08:35
Old. who gives a flying f*** who's happy and who isn't. What is done is done now. It should be the last said on the matter. isn't that what promised in your first post?
9.) 02 Feb 2026 22:45:26
I couldn’t care less for your opinion Oldbri but you will still complain for no good reason like several others do.
I don’t live in LaLa land and I already accepted before the season started that we would be in a relegation fight come the end of it.
For me that's just facing the reality of where we are.
There are some Leeds fans that will moan at just about anything concerning our club, for me it’s about being realistic about what our club/ team can achieve, that is what I believe and that has zero to do with, as you like to call me as being easily pleased.
I only expected one or two loans in this window, there’s never any real decent players available in January, especially strikers, I don’t want any player at our club who is probably not prepared to fight with everything he’s got in a relegation scrap.
You carry on moaning, I’ll carry on getting behind and supporting my football team.
18 Feb 2026 23:45:19
I would be stunned.
26 Jan 2026 07:36:26
Agree Aus.
25 Jan 2026 14:18:31
Agree MoT totally.
24 Jan 2026 10:56:26
Still feel it is to much for an average pl striker although in fairness when he had Cunha with him at wolves he scored more but after losing him to Man U he has lost a very good feeder/ 10.
15 Jan 2026 14:31:34
Is that actually confirmed as with what happened last time, he would be a good signing.
21 Mar 2026 18:39:55
Completely agree.
18 Mar 2026 23:29:28
Nice to hear from you again, Baz. Wonder where GIW is, lol. ?
17 Mar 2026 12:45:08
Oooo Corkey, I said that earlier and got told off lol. ?
15 Mar 2026 15:41:34
Absolutely correct.
