    Surely thats a plus not having to find any more money to pay Warnock irrespective of whether or not we got a fee I presume that we had to pay Hunt compensation for getting rid of him
    According to various reports I read Warnock was on 40k a week so thats a saving of £1m

    According to reports in Italy Cardiff City have stepped up in their pursuit for Empoli goalkeeper Davide Bassi. The Welsh club have been linked with the player in the past few days but they will face competition from fellow Championship side Leeds United and clubs from Italy.

    Thats becuase Hunt was well thought of by BMCD and paid over the odds for him. I often wonder had he married one of his daughters !!!

    Re Warnock, I think we should have hung on for rest of season as we will need all the experience we can get over the next 3 months. I am not too sure about chasing a new G K, unless we have one on the way out ??

    I bet we all have opinions of what we do need....... mine is period of calm.

    Who Hunt or Warnock on £40k? Cellino said Hunt was on £25k a week.

    I would have allowed Hunt to leave then that would have been it. Nobody in or out, with the embargo in place you have to wonder the quality that is available in January? If there had been a proven player available yes go for them on loan but now is not the time to gamble with unproven players. I agree with you Dave, stability is what we need now, it has so far taken us how long to realise the diamond doesn't work?

    With Warnock released and Wooton looking like he is going to be out the door we only need a blip or an injury from Taylor or Berardi and then Byram has to be called back from his new position. Warnocks experience cannot be brought and I fear we are going to miss it as the next few games start to define our season.

    I am back. No fighting,

    WJ took a telling and backed off when I told him to stop trying to touch me up.
    So how many players did we sign while I was out of the loop?
    Is it right that Silvestri is looking to get away?

    Just read the first ten threads, there was no argy bargy and all opinions expressed are genuinely held by those posting them, what are you suggesting people should post in a Leeds United forun to entertain you.

    Chippy,

    I hope not, it would show a real lack of commitment from the club in staying away from relegation.
    I don't know how secure Silvestri's contract is at Leeds but if he wants away that's a pretty bad sign that there is some turmoil within.
    But as usual I think we know little about anything that goes on.

    MC has his mind on his tenure at the club rather than the tenure of the club in the Championship.

    Oops sorry.

    If this one can kick a ball that would be better than the old one.

    No way was Hunt on £40k a week.... unless of course you have evidence that would stand up in the court of public opinion.

    I see Warnock's gone. Not good news. Taylor becomes our NO. 1 LB

    dont tell chippy.

    He might point out that he said we wouldn't be signing anyone in this window and some gave him a bit of a kicking for suggesting it. He would be due one hell of an apology from people who claimed they knew better... It seems he may well be 100% correct.

    Didn't you say right or wrong you wouldn't be apologising to anyone so why would you expect others to apologise to you ?

    I seriously don't recall saying that, not sure if you have me confused with someone else or taking me out of context.

    I must admit, even I thought we would have a few loan players join and maybe someone out of contract. When you pointed out the other day; "where are they all" I started to wonder, Cellino returning Monday I thought here we go.... Sadly not...

    How many January transfer windows have we exited weaker having sold our captain, how many captains have we sold? An alarming amount is the answer, surely we will bring at least one loan player in won't we...
