    NEIL WARNOCK admits to being so desperate to turn Leeds United into genuine promotion challengers next season that he was tempted to give today’s trip to Cardiff City a miss.

    The Leeds chief has had a change of heart and will be in the dugout – albeit on his own.

    Warnock told the Yorkshire Post: “Mick Jones (Leeds assistant manager) and Ronnie (Jepson, first-team coach) will not be with me due to being elsewhere scouting.

    So spot Mick and Ronnie and we might be able to work out a couple of targets...

    We have to send our matchday staff off to do scouting missions because there's only one man on our actual scouting team and he's mostly busy tonguing Bates' gunge-flecked arsehairs and nattering to Duncan Castles.

    The epitome of a prudent and professionally-run club.

    Apparently there were '5 or 6' others out watching players today. God knows who they were

    Trevor Gould lives near me, I have met him a few times and chatted with him, nice bloke his brother is Bobby and his son was the Scotland keeper. He does the odd bit of scouting from time to time for Arsenal mainly, they give him a call, he watches the player and then reports to one of the main scouts, I guess most clubs have small networks of local scouts.

    Tweet from Phil Hay &#8207; @ YEP a few mins ago ......

    Last bit from NW. Says #lufc had "8 or 9" staff scouting today: "I want to move quickly, not wait until July just to save 2 months' wages."

    Shouldn't that read: "the millwall scouts took a beating in their brownies"?

    Would make a nice change for songs to be sung in Leeds - usually only happens when we visit <cheers>

    If that was serious I would ask "any ideas who they might have been watching?"

    However, coming from TC it is obviously just a WUM comment. <laugh>

    I think TC's got confused between the Wall scouts and Leeds scouts, bless him.

    £500, way over Keneth's budget. £50 more like.
