So we are in for Tanaka now, don't know much about him, but we were linked with him last year too. Be a great song on the terraces AO, Let's Go, and maybe a good position to get some more advertising revenue from the popular electrical retailer.
1.) 28 Aug 2024 21:37:49
That song is a reason not to sign him.
2.) 28 Aug 2024 22:52:03
What's wrong with the song ER?
3.) 29 Aug 2024 01:28:25
Get him in. He's quality and just what we need. Do it. Do it now.
4.) 29 Aug 2024 09:47:37
ER not a Ramones fan I guess.

Leeds' month-long wait for a transfer is set to be concluded with an agreement in place with Almería for their winger Largie Ramazani.
The 23-year-old managed eight La Liga goals last season for his side despite their relegation, including a stunning first-minute strike at the Santiago Bernabeu.
1.) 21 Aug 2024 20:45:46
And a five match ban at the end of the season!
Not a bad signing.
15 Aug 2024 00:56:55
It just keeps getting better, Rutters release clause has been triggered, 40 mil. What's with these clauses, got more than home alone.
1.) 15 Aug 2024 03:01:45
Does that mean he's gone? ?.
2.) 15 Aug 2024 06:33:58
If he wants the move then yes he will be off.
3.) 15 Aug 2024 09:40:16
He has indicated that he wants the move. ???.
4.) 15 Aug 2024 09:49:18
I guess the rumours of Gnonto leaving on the last day were wrong and it was Rutter instead?
5.) 15 Aug 2024 10:16:51
Terms agreed - medical in next 72 hrs.
6.) 15 Aug 2024 12:57:46
Gnonto may well still leave - there are a number of clubs monitoring him including some large clubs overseas.
31 Jul 2024 14:43:38
Ryan Kent talk apparently, prefer Roy Kent if you have watched Ted Lasso.
1.) 31 Jul 2024 15:24:33
Rumoured to have made a £2.5M bid for him.
2.) 31 Jul 2024 17:05:38
Please, no!
3.) 31 Jul 2024 18:57:33
No chance!
4.) 31 Jul 2024 22:04:27
Prefer Clark Kent.
5.) 01 Aug 2024 07:37:47
I’d prefer rabies.

Ticket news in, unless you have attended 9 games thus year not ticket, even though you have a membership counts for nothing.

Anyone else getting frustrated with DCL? I get he's isolated, but apart from the penalties recently he's been poor.
We either change our system to accommodate or we upgrade in the summer.
1.) 26 Apr 2026 19:30:26
Think he's excelled in my expectations, Dougie, but he's definitely out of form, so I would support all three options: flex our systems, rotate, and definitely add to the forward line in the summer.
2.) 26 Apr 2026 19:35:54
DCL wasn't good today (but then no one was) ..
However, overall this season he has played well, but yes, if we stay up we need to recruit another better striker also.
Allan Clarke, Mark Viduka, Tony Yeboah quality.. If only.
3.) 26 Apr 2026 19:40:09
Just my opinion. Nmecha has shown that little bit more when he's come on, he can get a decent shot away.
I felt today we never showed up. Usually, when we go a goal down, we up the tempo, and that wasn't there today; maybe the occasion got the better of us.
Great to see Stach back. ???
4.) 26 Apr 2026 19:42:20
Agreed across the board! Far too isolated.
5.) 26 Apr 2026 19:42:32
I was at the game today, fortunately, and, as most have said, it was a game of 2 halves. On a positive, our fans were amazing, unlike our opponents who only made a noise once they scored. How did it seem on TV?
6.) 26 Apr 2026 20:00:58
I would stick with DCL for the last 4 games, but I agree, he has been off form for a while now. If we stay up, an upgrade is required.
7.) 26 Apr 2026 20:03:35
He was piss poor today, and his goal-scoring has been the same for a long while. However, he's still integral to the way we play.
8.) 26 Apr 2026 21:44:10
DCL is still an asset, and we've got more out of him this season than many expected in terms of goals and leading the line. It's been obvious for a while that we do need another top class striker at the Club, but for financial reasons that's not been a possible option.
If we stay up, and we should, then a new striker should be top of the list.
He might be first on the team sheet, but DCL is a very good backup. Add a decent winger, a good AM, a left-footed defender who can play either at FB or CB, and we've got a good group. I'm more relaxed about the keeper situation.
9.) 26 Apr 2026 21:51:20
I would totally try to cash in on DCL in the summer if someone was silly enough to offer £50m for him. He's been good. But I think we caught some form, lucky. Based on his last four or five years.
I would expect him to get injured a lot next season, and this summer would be the best value time to cash in. No disrespect, just max the value and sell to West Ham or Spurs, whoever doesn't go down.
10.) 26 Apr 2026 22:15:13
50 million? I'd take 15.
25 Apr 2026 07:32:25.
Throwing out a question for additions next season.
In the very likely scenario we stay up up, what positions would you like addressed?
For me it's a striker, a central attacking midfielder, left winger (DJ too injured for me) , left back cover for Gabby and a new goalkeeper (Perri or Darlow as cover) .
Thoughts?
1.) 25 Apr 2026 08:42:23
Agree with all that, Dougie, with ultra focus and money on striker and attacking mid. James needs replacing. Cover for Gabby, as you say. I'd sell Perri but give Darlow a chance. He has done pretty well thus far.
2.) 25 Apr 2026 11:16:21
Dougie, you say left winger and then mention DJ, who is a right winger. I think we're better placed on the left with Okafor, and if we want another winger it should be a right sided player. The rest I mostly agree with, though I think Perri has improved enough recently to keep him for now.
3.) 25 Apr 2026 12:28:38
"Very likely" scenario, Dougie?
.. We don't beat Burnley, we could still be in great peril.
Our other 3 matches, including at home to Brighton, and 6-pointers away to Spuds and Hammers, are gonna be very tough indeed.
4.) 25 Apr 2026 12:59:33
Dougie, if we stay up, I’d sell a few players and try to bring in cash. For me, I’d sell Perri, Longstaff, DJ, Gnonto, BA, Piroe, Bournow.
Right, MF, I’d try to offer Harry Wilson decent cash as he is on a free, he is big mates with the Wales boys and could possibly be tempted.
I agree with you, Rw, CMF, striker and new #1GK and CB.
I would try for Jon Duran for striker, either Trafford or West Ham GK Ariole (good shot stopper) .
Also depends on who gets relegated. If Spam, I’d try to get back Summerville and think Daisia from Spam is decent.
Quite like Mane from Wolves.
5.) 25 Apr 2026 13:22:36
Baz is right, we are still in a relegation fight.
Two bad results today, and Burnley is a definite must win.
6.) 25 Apr 2026 17:12:54
And it happened, Canada.. Spuds, West Ham and Forest all won.
Changing their managers has worked for all 3 clubs.
7.) 25 Apr 2026 17:22:02
Not really, Baz, they've changed so many times between them that, eventually, they'd get lucky. Even a blind squirrel....
8.) 25 Apr 2026 17:29:31
They may have all got it right enough in the end, though, Canada. All 3 staying up just got more likely.
21 Apr 2026 08:31:28
Unexpected bonus yesterday. I applied for the ballot on Thursday as a Leeds member. The club site said if you don't hear by midday on Monday you are unsuccessful in the ballot. But at 2.45 yesterday afternoon I got an email with tickets, yippee, can't wait. ?
Anyone else going?
{Ed025's Note - great stuff Dougie..
1.) 21 Apr 2026 08:47:27
Yes - exact same happened with me, Dougie!
2.) 21 Apr 2026 09:50:37
Are you in gods too, Manston?
3.) 21 Apr 2026 11:02:02
Nice one, Dougie, lucky you.
Enjoy us beating Chelski at Wembley this Sunday.
It's happening.
4.) 21 Apr 2026 12:05:30
Awesome stuff, Dougie! Not at all jealous! My last Wembley visit with Leeds was the Cup final defeat vs Villa! Hope you get a better outcome, and a great day, fella!
5.) 21 Apr 2026 12:09:51
Yes, I am going with our Supporters Club branch. We have 4 coaches going. I have done every home game, and a few away this season.
6.) 21 Apr 2026 12:12:59
Nice one, LUFCfeath. Enjoy it, pal.
7.) 21 Apr 2026 12:26:23
Dougie, yes. Level 5.
8.) 21 Apr 2026 15:58:21
Thanks, Baz.
9.) 21 Apr 2026 18:40:57
Level 5 too, row 548 in the gods, but just thankful to be there. I reckon they released some more, hence the late email.
10.) 21 Apr 2026 20:58:59
Enjoy, lads.. Up The Whites Down The Pints. ???
14 Apr 2026 10:09:36
Where's my post ed? It says published, but I can't see it.
{Ed033's Note - On the Leeds Match Posts page.
1.) 14 Apr 2026 12:19:21
Cheers Ed, I had completely forgotten about the Match posts section.
2.) 14 Apr 2026 14:07:59
One of those places I have never looked at ed, thanks for the direction. Do we really need that page though?
{Ed033's Note - The idea originally was that if people are remarking on a match during a match, those posts need to go somewhere other than the Banter page.
19 Feb 2026 17:21:01
Im confused Ed!
Just added the web version to my phone as an icon, but there are no posts, am I missing something?

Wex, what a load of bolxxxx. The 49s have always side swiped and signed people who aren't even spoke about, all this paper talk about missing out on every player is rubbish. Are we there yet cries the kid on the back seat, nearly son, but he doesn't know there's a 100 miles left and by the time he falls asleep and wakes up he's arrived.
Have patience Wex, it'll come good. ?.
13 Apr 2024 11:01:01
Jack Clarke?
20 Feb 2024 18:57:17
What Aus said.
17 Dec 2023 10:29:16
Agree, Jaidon hasn't looked great at all, be happy to let him go back.
22 Aug 2023 16:09:47
Deffo, he wanted Leeds in the first place, but once again we dilly dallyed and missed out. We never just go for it, so frustrating.
05 May 2026 17:12:36
Come in Aus, stop teasing. ?
