    Good Morning Everyone,

    Doukara has signed a contract extension that will see him stay at Elland Road until the end of next season.

    Thoughts?





    Leeds Utd have launched a new range of clothing called 'heritage'

    Good idea?




    Garry Monk has hinted that Chris Wood will be fit to play Reading tomorrow :-

    “Chris came back with a knock – obviously from the game. We have been assessing him and we are confident that he will be fine and available for the weekend’s game,” Monk explained, as reported by the Yorkshire Evening Post.

    “It’s just the bumps and bruises you get from the game.

    “It was an early knock, a collision on him on his leg. But it’s nothing serious and we are very confident that he will be fine and ready to go for the weekend.”

    Time really does fly...

    It was on this day in 2001 that David 'Rocky' Rocastle died, aged just 33.

    Morning all, pissed off that Duke got a contract extension does that mean Monks taught him how to control the ball without ending up on his ass. Harsh but he runs into dead ends, gets pushed over, loses control, misplaced passes with the odd goal and tiny bit of genius. I don't think hes good enough but Im not Garry Monk.

    At a time when Arsenal are struggling because of Wenger, it makes you remember how good Rocky was and he would have been the type of player Wenger would have appreciated. RIP mate

    Morning all. Big days fixtures tomorrow. Realistically a win for us and we're in the playoffs as either Norwich or Wednesday or both likely to drop points again. Some achievement and who knows how far this team can go

    Afternoon all... surprised we have given him an extension before knowing which division we're going to be in. If we go up and we have to play Doukara in the PL we're in big trouble.

    When we're struggling at the bottom the International break flies by, it seems ages since we last played, can't wait for tomorrow.

    Thats exactly it. Wed be selling a pl striker. Regardless how bad hed be, that seems to usually add considerably to sell on values

    Is this a post from three years ago? Are you in a time warp maybe?

    Interesting stuff on FA site. Says Bellusci's Leeds contract was cancelled by mutual consent on July 4, 2016, after he joined Empoli on loan

    Bellusci had another year remaining at Leeds after this season. That rather suggests he won't be returning.

    Similar thing with Tommaso Bianchi. When he joined Ascoli on loan in January 2016, his #lufc contract was actually severed

    At the time one of my fav players, the one against Southampton was goal of the season, when he curled the ball around defender and keeper<ok>
