a shame that the large groups we used to get in the BBC606 days have moved on to smaller ones on different forums
Oh, I don't know about that. There are times I can't keep up with the number of posts on here - and being retired, I've got all the time in the world to do it!
they have some good posters on there.just pop over and read on a daily basis.not signed in for ages but still know a few of them from old meet ups.
This is what I find annoying about paper talk. Why the hell would all these teams form an orderly line to try and get him to sign. He's 19 with no experience other than L2 & L1 he has only scored 5 goals from 19 and even less last season. So a goal every 4 games is not what we need right now when we already have a shed load of kids. Or am I missing something here? Glasgow Rangers are the other British side who are tracking Roberts, with Graeme Murty keen to bring the striker to Ibrox. However, Leeds and Rangers face competition from abroad for the striker’s signature. Marseille, Alaves, AC Milan, Sampdoria and Torino are all interested in Roberts, as well as Leeds.
Liverpool reportedly could complete deal with Championship outfit on one condition please log in to view this image According to YEP, Liverpool goalkeeper Adam Bogdan could be on his way to Leeds United before next Thursday if the Elland Road outfit lose Andy Lonergan to Sunderland. The 34-year-old has played second fiddle to Felix Wiedwald all campaign and could leave in search of regular football, with the Black Cats promising just that. As a backup and to keep Wiedwald on his toes, the Whites will move to sign Bogdan on loan till the end of the campaign. The 30-year-old Hungary international hasn’t tasted action since damaging his cruciate ligament while on loan at Wigan last season, but he’s now fully fit to return to goal. Another move away from Anfield is all but certain, and Bogdan could even seek to make his next exit permanent having struggled to break into the Liverpool first team since arriving from Bolton in 2015. The Hungarian has a lot of Championship experience that could benefit Leeds, and would give the first-choice 27-year-old German the run for the money due to his quality if a deal is gotten over the line.

Tom Pearce had United’s first chance soon after, he struck from long range, forcing Barnsley stopper Jake Greatorex into action. The hosts took the lead from a set-piece, Sam Tingle delivered into the box and the ball was headed across goal by Will Smith, before Adeboyejo poked home past Harrison Male. It took Barnsley less than four minutes to double their lead, Adeboyejo stole possession, before breaking through one-on-one with Male, before unselfishly squaring to the supporting Wolfe, who slotted home into the empty net. The Tykes could have netted a third on the stroke of half time, Louis Wardle broke after winning possession from Oliver Sarkic, he played in Wolfe who was denied by Male, before Hugo Diaz cleared off the line. Half Time: Barnsley 2-0 Leeds United Leeds started the second half brightly and Tom Pearce almost pulled a goal back for Leeds with a 30 yard free-kick, which went just inches wide. Jack Clarke then tried his luck from the edge of the box with a low effort, forcing Greatorex into a brilliant stop. Leeds’ pressure eventually told ten minutes into the second half, Sarkic did really well, before playing the ball to Jamie Shackleton who found the net from close range. United then went close from a set-piece, Pearce delivered a good free-kick from the flank, but Diaz couldn’t find the target with his header. Balboa almost equalised for Leeds, with a curling effort from the edge of the box, but he couldn’t find the target. Sam Dalby was then introduced for his Whites debut, after joining the club from Leyton Orient through the week. Clarke had a great chance to level 10 minutes from time, a Diaz cross fell to him in the box, but he failed to keep his composure, blazing a half volley over the crossbar. The hosts then sealed the win in stoppage time, when Ben Williams did really well to break into the box from the left and he found Adeboyejo who slotted home his second of the afternoon.
