Good Morning Everyone, Did you know that Vinnie Jones came close to throwing Cellino off the balcony of the box they were both in at the Watford Cup game in February last year? Vinnie JonesVerified account@VinnieJones65 @LUFC btw i almost threw Massimo over the balcony at watford , we were in the same box and he didnt even say hi did he even know lufc past Teach Cellino not to say Hi.... According to reports, Clotet and Beattie left Elland Road the same time as Monk, but yet to hear from a verified source.... I put a poll up on twitter asking Leeds fans if Monk and Rads were to bury the hatchet would you take Monk back. It is my opinion that Monk had one of his strops and walked out. Remember how he spoke to Popey and Eddie after our 4th or 5th game in, after getting beaten by Huddersfield (I think). So far 40% YES --- 60% NO Thoughts? Reading v Dog Botherers today. Who do you want to win? Latest odds for our next Manager. See Laudrup in in the mix.
Morning all from a foggy Newquay. Been driving since 2am but here for the week now. Just about to test this cafes claim that I won't see a bigger breakfast in town.
Morning all. Our bank holiday is next week so normal work day here. Must admit at one time I thought I'd be spending today at Wembley today but won't bother even watching the highlights now. Take Monk back? Not a chance. I'm still curious about dishing out 2 m for sakho. Either rads put together a big transfer fund or blown it all in one go. He's certainly talking big, buying ground and eventually state of the art training complex. As with new players he deserves a chance but he'll be closely scrutinised
I was happy with Sacko at that price. Anything closer to his reported buy out fee would have been scandlous but for this fee to get a half decent player who is already interested into the squad.
Sakho isn't on the official site so is it real or just gossip? I think it would be a good move but unsure if it has really occurred !
There were stats posted on the Leeds board about shots and assists, seem to remember that Sackos were pretty poor, so not sure about him signing. Someone must have agreed it who's going to be in charge, either director of football or pending manager.
Morning Eire. There are so many reports that vary between 1.2m - 2m for Sacko. If he can a) look up before he crosses and b)deliver a half decent ball then we have ourselves a bargain
Morning all. Monk hurt the fans I think so expectations will be really high for a replacement. Lets face it this appointment will show everyone if we are serious. Monk has been tapped up and expect him to be announced at Sunderland, Palace, Rangers or somewhere soon. Not going to speculate on who will come in as Im hoping for a top guy & most on the bookies list are duds. On the whole Im well chuffed with Radz Board appointments and seems to have building blocks for growth in place now. he talks a good game because hes slagged off all past owners and accused them of milking the club. Hes also said hes here for the future and will hope to make money a long time down the road. This is an investment in the future. lets hope hes true to his word
Morning all. 1) Want Reading to win but not really bothered 2) No to Monk back, glad he has gone, a blessing in disguise 3) Not impressed with Sacko, guessing the incoming director is sorting it out, transfer window opens on June 9th 4) Wonder if the likes of Diacouraga will get another chance. I have a feeling we'll have a new man in place before Friday.
