    Good Morning Everyone,
    The agent of Bradford City hot-shot Nahki Wells has confirmed Leeds United are one of a host of clubs watching the striker.
    But he has added that the Bantams, in Capital One Cup semi-final action tonight, are currently not looking to sell with only a massive offer likely to lead them cashing in – with the club having not received any bids yet.

    Agent David Threlfall said: “I know Leeds are watching him, but everyone seems to be. Because Nahki is doing well, a lot of clubs are watching him in every game.

    “But to my knowledge, the club (Bradford) have had no sniffs for him.”

    Could Wells be the next hotshot???

    We are just over a week away from the end of the transfer window and it seems the signings, should it / they happen will go down to the wire, literally, the last few hours.

    Its Tuesday, and we don't have a midweek game (hold the front page). Are there too many midweek games? Who would be happier if the season was more spaced out? Do the players need such a long Summer break?

    Shaun Derry has signed a new deal at QPR, KEEPING HIM AT THE CLUB TIL 57....<doh>

    Loads of teams looking at Wells, Acrington Stanley, Hartlepool, York City, Luton Town. Lets hope its just Agent speak, because if he was good we would have had him as a kid .... oh wait a minute they have a better academy than us now. Sick of looking in the bargain bucket, we need quality, proven quality. Cardiff and Hull getting sorted but we still piss around and lets hope the reject from Ipswich doesn't come here as the 'icing on the cake signing' we've been waiting for. 33-years old though so he fits the bill ffs

    Show some intent GFH please

    Morning Elland, morning those joining. Glad we're not getting Derry. He's not enough of an improvement on what we already have to make it worth the effort. No idea who we'll be getting, as the only people we're not being linked with are Messi, George Best, & Bobby Charlton. Clearly agents are working hard to bolster their fee income. So I think I'll just wait & see.

    Still think we need a pacey winger. Either that or use Hall one side & teach White how to get to the byeline & pull the bal back to someone waiting on the penalty spot.

    Glad we haven't got a midweek game. Give the players the cnace for a it of a break & to work on their passing abilities.

    I'd take Nahki Wells, the guy looks very very promising.

    He would certainly not be a priority for me though

    Morning all. I'm not holding my breath waiting for these signings. I don't think the players are out there. I'm more worried about players leaving. I hope I'm wrong, but it's happened so many times over recent seasons that it feels like ground hog day. I don't buy into the players are tired from too many games, let them do 12 hr night shifts and then they'll realise how lucky they are.

    lol, been up most of the night with my daughter who thinks sleep is for wusses !!, I think there are players out there that would improve us and give us a chance of the lottery we call the play offs I think a couple of the Brum players would help the cause, if we haven't signed anyone decent by next Thursday then I will be on the valium for the rest of the season.

    I see we are about to employ yet another former Pompey reject. It's comforting to know that the new owners (aye sure) know what they are doing and that Warnock know's a technically gifted player when he sees one. We all know we need a new striker, especially one that's 32 and rather pish, it doesn't matter much anyway because we don't have any width to provide the crosses for the OAP to score.

    I stated I would never put another penny into Leeds United until Bates had gone, well this is now moved on to Bates (MARK 2) better known as GFH Capital. I have never fallen for their bullshit and I would suggest others don't either.

    I can't wait for the transfer window to be closed. In fact, I can't wait for this season to be over.

    On a serious note, how much money would you actually give Warnock to spend? Given that he looks likely to bugger off in the summer (hooray) and his track record of screwing up players who have/had any skill (Lees, White, McCormack), I'd personally be reluctant to give him anything.

    Morning all. GFH are skint, very little going towards transfers. Apparently that genius negotiator Shaun Harvey is working his socks off to bring in Warnock's targets - oh wait, he fcuked up so many transfers in the past you have to wonder what he's still doing at Leeds. The only major signing I'd like to see right now is Nigel Adkins with Colin being given a free transfer.

    Morning Billy, morning all <ok>

    I tend to agree. YEPs poll on if Warnock is the man to lead us back to the prem got a 75% vote against Warnock. Cant help but feel his hands are tied but his signings and tactics speak for themselves.

    Chris Burke is off to Forest. I've seen a fee quoted of just 300k. Missed a trick with this one. Would have been a top signing.
