You know it’s been a great season when the YEP start a story about bringing Cody Drameh back from Luton and even Joffy from Sunderland to help with keeping Leeds up. Both players are due to play against each other in the Championship play-off semi finals on Saturday

Things now starting to unravel behind the scenes as Radz pulls out of being interested in buying Inter Milan. He has been toying with the idea for a number of months and has even spoken to their head coach. Season before last he was almost doing the deal to buy Salernitano but the 49ers asked him to look elsewhere because of price hiking. Salernitano would have been owned by LeedsCityityFootballGroup but the Inter deal was strictly a Radz purchase for himself at a cost of £880m. That tells you that he is now expecting relegation and either the 49ers buyout to not happen or the valuation of the club reduces his profit by a couple of hundred million.

Remember the deal for the young Barcelona flying winger we had agreed to take on a freebie, well Leeds have today also pulled the plug on it

Gaby Ruiz expected to walk very soon and at least one other coach and maybe even the keeper coach as these guys were all Orta’s men. The clear out starting

Players who are still with us three seasons after we won the Championship.

Meslier
Ayling
Cooper
Struijk
Cresswell
Drameh
Forshaw
Dallas
Shackleton
Harrison
Summerville
Bamford
Gelhardt
Roberts

Not sure we need a DOF as all we need to do is send them out to bat again and we'll be promoted.

Going down we might get 3 points but it will not be enough

I can't see Soton surviving. Everton will probably be ok. We desperately need Forest to not get another point and Leicester to only get at best a couple of draws. We still have to get 3 points from somewhere though.

Would be nice to get 3 this weekend

I think I have reached the acceptance stage. It's the only way I can deal with the next 3 games. If by some miracle it works out that will be a huge bonus but if we go down then I have sort of come to terms with it.

I agree. Really we need to win all three to stay up but I honestly don’t think we’ll pick up another point. I was no fan of Jesse and although he got stick at the time, he was right when he said these players are frightened (= gutless). Nearly every team down there has pulled out a surprise result lately but not us.

Maybe our turn will come to provide a shock result but then again pigs might fly.

We are just repeating his history with Middlesbrough. Helped in getting them promoted then wasted big money on players not suited for premier league football and they ended up being relegated. Reports suggest he was a popular figure at the club and why wouldn’t he be with the contracts handed out some mediocre players

Isn’t the goalkeeping coach that odd little mate of Cellino or did I miss his departure?

My focus is on who's still here (Orta's gone) and there's definitely enough in the squad for next season should we be relegated (we will).

Of course 3 or 4 will leave but the rest will have to suck it up (lower wages) and get on with the task of winning football matches.

Or are we Stoke ? <yikes>
