I don't recall ever saying they were (or even mentioning them). Also don't see how this addresses my post
you dont seem to agree on my points , are you then in agreement on wooton and bamba ? and if you dont know what my points are on them please read my post on them
 
Thank YOU, I am learning. You must like Doukarra though? Wouldn't swap him with VARDY>
doukarra is the type of player that needs to be told he has tallent although i know some players need this i would rather have a player that KNOWS he has tallent VARDYobviously does , there are other players out there that know
they have tallent but never get signed by leeds such as joey barton

Sniffer mate, I think it's you that hasn't grasped my point, though others. Managed to so perhaps you should re-read.
I never disagreed with you about better players, I merely said your argument was too simplistic. Yes if we buy very good players we can win things. This depends on how much we have to spend, what wages we're prepared to pay and if players want to join a club currently 18th in the championship.

I meant to add that I agree Wootton and Bamba are very poor players, they can be replaced with better players but not necessarily players good enough to win things. I mean if we are saying they are both very poor, then surely just "poor" or average is a step up.

It also depends on what particularly useless head coach we have at the time

It doesn't matter how much money we have to spend if we keep having useless twats in charge of the team

Ok Mate we understand each others points BUT why would nobody want to join
a club that is currently 16th in the championship who has just bought lets say for argument sake
on 1st june 2016 we offer to buy forsteri as sheff wed DONT get promoted and hull dont get promoted
so we put offer in for hernandez both players lets say cost 25m davis or dawson as centre back from hull city who lets say dont get promoted we buy one of these for 8 million , thats 33 million and we sell bamba and wooton for 4 million so we have spent 29 million and we buy a creative midfielder good quality for 6 million total spent 35million now why would players not come to leeds ?? players can now see we have ambition by spending money !! and cellino being a billionaire can afford this

Maybe because as has been said earlier, Cellino has never spent more than £5m on one player, plus you have to remember that it is not just the transfer fee, there is also the players wages to take into account, so that 29 million becomes whatever figure it will be.

If you believe that Cellino will do this, without saddling the cost of all these purchases to the club, then yes I am in agreement, I'd love for the owner to go out and spend his own money and bring in certain players who will vastly improve the team and get us challenging for promotion, but I for one cannot see Cellino doing that, and that IS THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH YOUR IDEA.

Now if you think you can convince Cellino to go with your argument, maybe you would be better of writing to him with your proposals.

Under ffp the owner can't just spend unlimited quantities his own money any more.
