    Good Morning Everyone,

    Reports in Italy claim Atalanta and Bologne could bid for Bellusci before next week’s transfer deadline amid speculation that Leeds are prepared to listen to offers for the 26 year old centre back.

    It's fair to say the Italian has had a turbulent time at Elland Road, and it is believed that Bellusci sat down with the powers that be at Elland Road earlier this week.

    He cost 1.6m. I would be surprised if not only we recoup that money, but get closer to 2m for him.

    Thoughts?


    Rosler was seen at the Bury - Leicester matching apparently with a view of bringing Liam Moore to Elland Road.

    Thoughts?


    There are unconfirmed reports that Cellino was at the Watford game last night. That could be interesting. Was it two mates meeting up, or is there more to the story?


    About to go into a meeting, will try to get on later.

    It's over to you....

    Morning all, back in June we were again strongly linked with Moore, I have always thought he would be a good addition.

    No idea, we have been linked with Moore a few times, start of June on the rumours thread was most recent <ok>

    Mike repeats what we read on NewsNow, not just him, we all do <ok>

    End of July Swindon were sniffing around Ajose
    http://www.flicwiltshire.com/STFC/T...a-return-for-Ajose-according-to-reports-.aspx

    I think it's his style of writing sometimes, comes over as in the know rather than "reports suggest" or "rumour has it".

    No, I remember seeing an article long before he mentioned him. Maybe Ajose to Swindon though, I'm not as quick on the outgoing rumours.

    Good morning to Matt and co from a slightly sunny Bardsey where I await our cousins from Toronto,I am picking them up at Leeds Station, just got there booze in for today I wondered earlier when I read we were interested in Moore who was for the door I assumed it was Wootton now it looks like Bellusci and from his performances this season I can understand why not impressed sorry Matt but I think we will be lucky to get our money back

    Sorry I thought Millwall Steve was asking about Ajose to Swindon and Moore joining, didn't see where he questioned these other players, I better read over his question again in case I missed that.

    No you implied that I read the news now re players I assure you I have a mind of my own and if I saw a player I liked and he could fit into the team I would write to the manager .As I pointed out as I don't speak Italian I have not bothered to write to MC although Popey told me to write to his assistant which I did I invited him to my house for an Italian meal but I never received a reply, he probably thought like you I was deranged muppet

    I suggested you read about Ajose and the Swindon link and I suggested that you read about Moore as they were the players mentioned, in regards to these two players, I clearly stated "I think" it is your style of writing "sometimes".

    I do not think you are deranged, I think you just get hot headed too quickly and hit the keyboard and press reply sometimes without thinking or reading over what you have just typed. You might think I hate you, I don't, we do not get on well here on this forum admitted but I wish you no harm, I wouldn't want you to stop sharing your thoughts/opinions and my reply to Millwallsteve was in regards to Ajose and Moore only.

    As I've said previously 60 recommended the players before they signed or were rumoured to sign. But it wasn't because he's a top notch talent scout.

    Adam smith recommendation came on the back of an absolute blinder he played in a televised cup game for MK dons.

    Similar with Matt Smith - his recommendation followed a few televised games he played amazingly in for Oldham. I think one was against LIverpool and the commentators were going crazy for him.

    I am a hot head there is no doubt about that but what I say I believe and if anyone calls me a liar as I believe you did well that makes my blood boil I even tried to send you evidence about who was right regarding those 3 players but to no avail .You are right I don't take fools easily

    Lets us also remember Adam Smith played 3 games for us, he was recalled. He then went to Millwall on loan and Derby on loan and now plays for Bournemouth. Matt Smith is now 26 he played 42 games for us, joined Fulham and now is on Loan to Bristol City, neither player will go down in history as a well remembered and a loved Leeds player, they are not anything special, just average players. Jamie Murphy? The press said we were interested in him, no idea what the connection is apart from that as we never signed him.

    If you recommended any of them before we signed or tried to sign them I am pleased for you 60 if that is what makes you happy, personally none of them are worth bragging about in my opinion <ok>
