    I think as fans we’d maybe thought ‘bank the money, go down, come back stronger’ route was ok.

    Club simply didn’t get that memo.

    Not far off a full build up, should be ready to go for the start of the season ...

    ... I wouldn't be surprised to see him on the bench against West Ham.

    My worry with that is Bowden on the right. I want Reinildo marking him from left back. If necessary, I would prefer Seelt or Hume at centre half. Think we’ll get at least one defender in this week, likely even two.

    There's definitely things going on with the squad that we don't know yet.

    Who'll be going, I'm still expecting a few surprises?

    RLB seems to be trying players in different positions and some, like Harrison Jones, who you wouldn't expect to be in the squad.

    I think he's trying out Talbi, for example, to see how they get on but with no intention of playing them in the first game.

    He doesn't need to see how Le Fée will play, he already knows.

    I think he'll keep Roberts, Moore, etc because we've already paid for them and they'll have a role at the club.

    Still two weeks until is all goes mad <cheers>

    He’s also more of a classic 9 too. 6ft 2 and uses his strength well but is also quick

    Might be wrong but I believe he was at the club World Cup so has barely started pre-season, if at all.

    Aye plenty of ins, outs and surprises yet. So exciting man

    There’s a warning with this comment. I have a Chelsea obsessed mate. Londoner who lives in Leeds but is constantly back and forth, even reserve games. Kept sending videos of Guiu saying they should play him reckons they wasted on Delap. Guess what ? Reckons he’ll score a hatful and keep us up and says our fans will adore his work rate. warning? He said similar about Burstow

    Think he is definitely leaving. Might be a late one if the club want too big a fee versus buying club. Might even end up as a loan with obligation if the club dont budge on a valuation. I believe there is quite a bit of interest, so lets see how it plays out. One thing I would bet my hat on, Neil wants to play football. I respect that. He isnt doing that with Xhaka here, not starting week in week out. Too many players happy to sit on a bench these days for me. Sod that, you have one career, you have to play. Even if as some say, he is a middling championship player, then I would respect him playing 40 odd games in the championship week in week out, than scratching about for cup games and 20 mins here and there. As the world and his wife knows I think he is better than that but in his shoes I would put playing week in week out above most things. He has had his golden moment with his boyhood club. If we have indeed outgrown him, better he leaves with that high in mind for me.

    I’ve seen a few worries about the scale of change in the club which is probably a fair concern however our injury list currently includes:
    Patto, LON, Alese, Hjelde, Mundle, Rigg, Isidor

    All of who arguably have a sizable role to play in the squad overall

    I also think Roberts may start ahead of Talbi

    got think Neil is off though. Backed himself into a corner with the contract and basically seen himself out the team

    Talbi will play the first game unless we sign another right winger

    I think Neil would be getting minutes now if he accepted his contract offer
