    Leeds want Buendia on loan. Villa happy for him to go on loan. Buendia wants to play football but preferably not dropping a division.

    If nobody else comes in for him then it's a possibility that we get him for a few months.

    I’d say it’s more like the ITKs claiming we are going to get someone <laugh>

    If they’re getting nothing then surely, by definition, they can’t be ITK?

    I remember under Bates, he was sick of the leaks coming out of the club, he got one of his minions to sign up to waccoe and find out what they could about any posters leaking stuff on there. One time he concocted a leak and only 2 people knew the false info, sure enough it appeared on waccoe, he had them both in and told them if the culprit didn't own up, they'd both be sacked.

    For all of Cuddly Ken's faults, I can't say I blame him tbh. How would the club ever do any smart business if those that really know what is going on tell the world before it has happened??

    A long story but it does make a point at the end.

    Believe it or not, many years ago I discovered there was money to be made from Americans collecting Beanie Babies, some Brits too.

    Basically they’d buy a Britannia for £120 they cost £5.99 at the time but you could only have one if you collected 10 others also costing £5.99

    I went round stores buying 30 at a time which allowed me 3 Britannias, I’d sell the three for £360 ish then the other 30 I’d sell off for half price

    I also whipped together a quick Beanie website and started making even more with advertisers who used to pay per click on it.

    The popularity of it was down to a news and gossip section, I used to make any old **** up. Anyway, this attracted many who used to send in “leaks” the majority were worse than my stories but it soon became apparent that 2-3 regulars really were employed by Ty Warner or had a connection.

    There are always people out there who get off leaking stories, it’s what I always found strange about the guy at the YEP in all his time there he was never first to a story

    Leeds United are rivalling RB Leipzig for left-back Daniel Svensson, currently playing in Denmark for Nordsjælland, and have lodged a bid to sign the player.

    Personally not bothered about Buendia, have a feeling he'd think he was too good for us and that can lead to squad unrest. No idea why he thinks he's too good for the championship, it's probably his level, he's had 2 good seasons in the 10 he's been playing. Massively over hyped imo

    So yesterdays pressy Farke opened up about playwrs needed all the positions we have talked about Number 10, Centrehalf and a striker. But also said it has to fit the 3 tier marking system 1 Good Enough to get in the 11. 2. Right mentality and wants to be here. 3 Affordable in our bracket. Think with the Pascal news centre half coul be at rhe back of that list now. The striker looks like Iheanacho from Sevilla but hes well out of form. Buendia looks another but does he tick our boxes is he good enought yes. Does he want to be here not from his last report as he doesnt want to play in the championship and he deffo doesnt fit in our transfer and wage structure. A loan wirh a perm could be our offer but lots of work i guess from bith sides for a deal from wages to commitment.

    So boro sign Whittaker from Plymouth, for about a quarter of the fee they were wanting this time last year, which was way over the top, who'd want him though, refusing to play for Plymouth last week, ****ing rat.
    Anyway Sky believe that as opened the door for us to get the coffee bloke from boro

    Darn I thought you meant we were going to sign Kyle Coffee from Real Monarch in the USA league or Joseph Starbuck from Tranmere;)
