    Good Morning Everyone,

    Big Dominic Matteo has hit out at the Leeds Utd hierarchy, and told them to sort it out!!!

    He said: "The off the field issues need to be sorted out once and for all, they really do.

    "People say to me off field issues don't affect players, but when its been going on for the time its been going on at Leeds United, there must be a point where people are sick of talking about it. I feel that myself."

    He went on to say (and he has a point) that we got 6 points against Bournemouth, arguably one of the best teams in the division, so it shows what we are capable of!



    Sam Byram has admitted that the LUFC players read about criticism on social media sites like twitter (and Not606)

    “We all read stuff on social media and things like that. But we don’t let it bother us, to be honest,” he said.

    “We are a tight-knit group and we always look to the next game, and always try and stay positive.”

    “We take what we can from the previous game and take it to the next one.”



    It is understood that Massimo Cellino is set to announce his resignation as Leeds United president today.

    The 58-year-old was told to relinquish control of the club by noon on Wednesday!

    Ssshhhhhh, maybe the football league won't notice!


    On Saturday, Cellino helped prepare food for the team. This is great!

    Morning Elland. Players can't help but read comments and criticism on Twitter when those comments are sent directly to them. It's a new world now where fans can have direct access to players 24/7 on social media. If a player has a public Twitter account it isn't far off giving out your phone number.

    Not saying I agree with the abuse some get, I think if I was a manager I would ban players using and having social media accounts.

    One thing Redfearn hasn't done that a lost of past Managers did was to ban social media

    Hi Elland - I think as well we need to differentiate between social media -Twitter and forums like 606. Twitter arrives on a players doorstep, forums they have to visit or look for. A negative comment on a forum is no different to any online article allowing readers to post a comment.

    Good morning to Matt and co from a hazy Cote de Bardsey
    I expect MC wll very reluctantly hand over the reins to his sons so putting plan B in place its been reported that Krhintheplayer we were supposed to be nterested in as opted to go to Corbara an ailing Spanish club which doesnt say much for us!
    #Lets hope these 2 new players we are signing are up to the mark I have every confidence in Bamba but the other is a mystery
    Moe is still very sore but had a little sleep last night

    Morning Mike, firstly all the best to Moe.

    His sons will do as they are told, surely? If Cellino is on the other end of the phone, telling his sons what to do, what is the difference?

    All paper talk and opinions I know but this isn't the one we are going to have to worry about. If you believe the reports that are circulating Cellino has another two pending cases at least that will probably lead to future longer bans if found guilty.

    There is no smoke without a fire, he did meet with red Bull last year, maybe his intention was to get us promoted asap and sell for a healthy profit. We really have not heard the last of the FL and Cellino and sadly I think we as fans are going to be playing a lot of wait and see games.

    Matteo wants to keep his trap shut. Does he really think the club are inviting issue after issue? They're trying to fix them, not get publicity. Unlike him.

    Now that would have been a signing (if he wasn't so old)! The Terminator, aka Big Bob. Would love someone like him at CB these days. Wonder what Mr Molenaar is doing these days (he could probably still play better and faster than Pearce!).

    Official site confirms he is on loan as well
    http://www.leedsunited.com/news/art...xs60136v/title/boss-happy-with-bamba-capture?

    I believe most people said we wouldn't sign anyone for money because we have an embargo which is still the case, loans or free agents only <ok>
