    Good Morning y'all,

    The loan system, good, bad or indifferent. In recent times Leeds have not been good using the loanee system, even when we were in the Premiership. Who remembers Peter Reids signings

    Lens Zoumana Camara Loan
    Marseille Cyril Chapuis Loan
    PSG Didier Domi Loan
    Marseille Salomon Olembe Loan
    Arsenal Jermaine Pennant Loan
    AC Milan Roque Junior Loan
    Marseille Lamine Sakho Loan

    You cannot blame them solely on us getting relegated that season, but in my opinion they definately contributed. Even in recent times, who remembers Adam Smith and Andros Townsend. Smith supposedly got an injury and returned to White Hart Lane and Townsend asked to go to Birmingham instead.

    Other teams, lets use Hull and Brighton as examples are using the system to their advantage, so why can't we???

    Those of you that go to matches. Which ground serves the best and the worst pies. Which ones are best value for money? How does the food at ER compare?

    Do you normally go for a beer at half time, what would you normally have and how much would you pay?

    Nah not yet. Players, managers, agents, scouts will all be on holiday now and it's still only May.

    Ask that question in a months time though and nothings happened then the answer will be yes!

    More likely reason, we'll be waiting till everyone else has done their business so we can see whats left at the bottom of the barrel.

    Quite interesting read about Zoumana Camara on Wiki. He spent the 2003–04 season on loan to English club Leeds United, scoring in a 3–2 away win against Middlesbrough on 30 August 2003[SUP][1][/SUP] but eventually being relegated from the Premier League. Two months before leaving the Whites he blasted the organization, claiming he would not have accepted the club's offer had he known about its financial predicament.[SUP][/SUP]

    yea thats fair but the effort you put in that you can put into doing it the right way and you'd be more likely to be successful
