    Blimey, its been quiet on here today, (in the words of Delia 'Where are you', 'lets be aaaavin yooouuuuuu' !!!!

    Looks like White wants to stay with us (phew!!!)
    White's deal is due to expire in the summer, insists that negotiations over an extension are still in full flow.

    "Talks are ongoing," White told the club's official website. "I want to sign for Leeds and hopefully we'll get things sorted as soon as we can.

    Doesnt fill me with confidence when you look at the players over the last few seasons that have said exactly the same thing! Afternoon Elland, you not on holiday yet?

    Afternoon Bucks. I think White will buck the trend. Kilkenny & BJ left because either SG didn't feel they would take the club forward, or they wanted too much money, or both. Schmeichel was seen as surplus to requirements with Lonergan being seen as a better keeper. I think SG might have got the BJ situation wrong as he seems to be doing well with Norwich, but the other two don't appear to be much of a loss.

    Losing White would not go down well anywhere. He's broken into the 1st team this season. He's got pace to burn, & he's linking up well with Pugh. The club would be mad to let him go. Given his comments on LU, I get the impression that a deal will be done eventually.

    Hope so Boggers <ok>

    I agree we need to stick to a wage structure but that needs looking at if we cant compete with clubs like Bristol City when it comes to offering contracts!

    Theres got to be some middle ground & any footballer who signs there first offer is either mad or the club is for offering such a good deal!

    Just pay the players the going rate & we would be a hell of a catch to play for <ok>
