7 days have been eventful from beating barnsley to securing promotion on friday/sat and winning the league. Sunday seeing off fat boys derby khunty. Monday putting bids in for players (Allegedly). Tuesday happy birthday bielsa and weds we will receive what i wanted all season. Dust off the trophy cabinet and clean the glass we have something to put in it once more. I want signings on thursday
Morning all Real shame for Berardi, I'd like Leeds to stick by him until he has made a recovery. I can't see him playing for us again though. I do like the suggestion of giving him an ambassador type roll visiting the local schools and communities, I guess it depends on if he still wishes to play football again, if he does it surely cannot be PL level.

RB Leipzig sporting director Markus Krosche has told Kicker that Leeds United will have to sign Jean-Kevin Augustin on a permanent contract. Krosche has said that now that Leeds have been promoted to the Premier League, the West Yorkshire outfit are obliged to make Augustin’s loan deal permanent, as agreed by all parties in January.
I If true orta is deffo what i said he was. But this is an old rehashed article i suspect as click bait. Can not see this happening at all.
I think a lot of questions will be answered over the next couple of weeks. If we are to receive new owners then I'd imagine we'll have some exciting transfers, if Rads is planning on sticking around then we can expect a more shrewd approach with a few early signings. Bielsa will no doubt be waiting to see what happens before committing himself to the club, I would imagine if we were to get a new owner Bielsa will walk away
Well we missed adding the centenary images but was thinking that there are choices around obvious images around promotion - the championship trophy images with the players from this Wednesday, Bielsa, premier league status. Thought about Norman, Jack and Trevor to feature but then you’d have to include the other legends. Not much space but plenty to think about!
With the PL starting on potentially 12 Sept(?) it'll take time to get new people up to speed with Bielsaball so the sooner the better. I'm also confused about how FFP works following the Man City shenanigans.
Morning all. Never was really impressed with the FFP thing. Always thought it was a farce and depended on size of club what penalties would be dished out. Ive less interest than ever after the City decision and the jokes that are Wendies Wigan Derby Villa etc. I believe Bielsa will stay and no more than 4 signings will come in. I just hope that we don't wind up pissing our hard earned pl money away on deals like Augustins and Eddie etc. The difficult task seems to be finding players whose bodies and minds can adjust to the rigours of Bielsaball. Also need to bear in mind what has last two intensive seasons taken out of our existing squad physically. Anyway, damned exciting times to be a Leeds fan, and its a good many years since Ive written that in late July
Good morning everyone For those who might not yet have seen this,have a gander praise indeed from pep https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53467584 Sorry if it's been posted before. Seems to be a special bond between the two, can't wait till we play them,or any other PL team.
It's been quite some time since I actually believed we were getting somewhere but now I hope we are sound and consistent in transfer dealings rather than loud and flamboyant as we were in the early naughties.
I think we will not loan anyone and agree four signings for squad is all we can expect. Striker. Centre back. Quality mid and goalie.
