Good Morning Everyone, It looks like we'll get a new goalkeeping coach at Elland Road. Club are in the process of recruiting one, though it's not clear who this will be. This will probably mean that our current goalkeeping coach (and ex player) Neil Sullivan will go back to his old role at the academy, where he did well. Pre season friendlies against Spanish giants Athletic Bilbao and German outfit German outfit Hoffenheim have been arranged for the 21st and 25th July respectively. Gunnar Halle helped arrange the Hoffenheim game. No other friendlies announced yet, although there was some talk last month of Everton at home in August. That's not certain or confirmed. One game that has definitely been scrapped is Rangers, due to policing. The chief executive of the League Managers Association Richard Bevan has told @BBCSport that Leeds Utd is a bad example of how to run a club! Bevan said: "I'm not going to make a comment about existing staff there, but what I can tell you is there are ex employees who are having to go through the legal process in order to sort out their contracts. "
Morning chaps. Hope Villa win the cup today. Son in law a fan so I'm rooting for them. As for Rangers, they're hardly worth playing after their playoff final performance last night. Hopefully by the time the friendlies come around, we'll have our five or six million pound signings in place
Morning buddy, and you just wish that the likes of Bevan would keep his mouth shut. I reckon Warnock, BMcD are still chasing payment, and obviously looks like Redders has now burnt his bridges too because he's after a wedge too. Do we think it funny that Footballs World Governing body FIFA is bent as fook and football administrators in this country have allowed it yet they introduce a fit and proper rule whilst the top of football is so unfit and proper it makes me laugh. Oxymoron Have we got a proper retained list of all the loanees yet. Do we know if they are being sent back or kept on. Adryan, Monte, Sloth etc, does Rossler know what he's got yet
Morning all How long are we expecting this new Goalkeeper coach to last, 4 days? Got to agree with Eire I'm hoping for a Villa win but for tomorrow.
Good morning to Matt Steve Neil and co from a very dull and wet Bardsey We certainly need a good goalkeeper coach to teach Silvestri how to command his area and improve his distribution Its been mooted that Bamba has turned down a contract for next season pity I liked the lad Lets hope Blatter takes his ill gotten gains and leaves his corrupt organisation for good Matt you said that FIFA was not to blame for the corrupt appointment of the French referee re Bayern sorry I have to disagree they appointed him in the first place and why did they appoint a third rate referee it stinks to me Still on the side of backing Cellino over the Head appointment should have sent his wife and children but stayed to get his feet under the table in what could have been a very lucrative post .Let's face it if he failed he would have ended up a very wealthy lad See Howe has just signed King from Blackburn another player with pace and shooting ability this along with the fFederici signing .wHat price Matt is Bournemouth to stay up!
B/Mouth may end up with Joey Barton and Rio Ferdinand yet because of links between Harry and B/Mouth and QPR. If harry thinks Howe should pick them up Harry still has the ear of the B/Mouth board and he will get them on a retirement plan as freebies. Rio may like the easy pace of the south coast for his kids and Joey barton aint goona get too many Prem clubs chasing him
FIFA appoint referees for European games? I wonder who will tell UEFA? Ffs can't you get anything right?
Morning Mike. Raining down here in the big smoke. Roundabout the 4/6 mark atm but not many bookies have laid yet. http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/next-season-to-stay-up
Morning all... Adryan - The 20-year-old is set to return to Flamengo, He posted a message on his Twitter account last night, with a YouTube video produced seemingly by his representatives, with the message: "Hey guys, who want to take a look at my best moments playing with the Leeds United shirt?" While the reason for posting the video was not stated, it could be a package he uses in an effort to clinch his next move.. Bamba - Reading reports that he hasn't turned down a contract offer because he has not been offered one to turn down after his outburst against Cellino.
But a bloke with loads of qualifications told us that Bamba had turned an offer from lufc down. That could only mean he was spouting bollocks..... Again.
