Good Morning Everyone Speculation is rife regarding who will be the next candidates to take the Elland Road hot heat. Cielsa remains firm favourite. If you wanted to be ambitious, Zidane is 50/1, whilst Cellino is 500/1. Its fair to say Leeds have a huge week in front of them. Not on are they expected to announce their new Manager today or tomorrow but we can definately expect some transfer activity. Why did Leeds wait until June 1st to sack Heckingbottom? The reason is there was a clause in Hecks contract saying if he was sacked before KJune 1st, he would be entitled to 1m compensation After that, it was halved. Did Heck only expect to be at Elland Road for a few months then? Weird stipulation to have otherwise. I was house hunting for a former Souythampton Manager. I could not understand why his budget was only £400k, so I asked him! His response was 'Just incase things go terribly wrong'! Hull City fans have been taking to social media urging Abel Hernandez not to join Leeds. The Urugian international sent a godbye message on twitter over the weekend. It's a good thing Hull fans aren't bitter! Pick a former player Danny Mills or Gary Kelly and Ian Baird or Carl Shutt
Good morning Matt Just hope all the speculation on our new manager is put to bed swiftly & we can begin preparing for next season as soon as possible. Gary Kelly & Ian Baird for me, decent goal ratio bearing in mind he played in a poor team
Morning all... I had a look at the Hull board when the Hernandez rumour hit the mainstream press, they were so dismissive of the possibility, truth is I was too thinking no chance. Hopefully a few positive days ahead
Morning all Yes big week especially as the club would like to get any announcements done before the England circus takes over. No no news over the weekend just some journos trying to put fresh spin on it, but things still point to Biesla and he could turn them down flat at any moment. If however he does sign on it must mean he has a bunch of players he wants and if Orta cant get them no doubt Orta will feel some pain. One rumor that could make sense is Fernando Llorente from Spurs, either a cheap buy or even a loan to get rid of his wages. Liorente thinks Biesla is the dogs as he created him and made him a star striker even getting him into the national team. He scored 118 goals for Biesla at Athletic Bilbao until Biesla left and Liorente went to Juve then. He scored plenty of goals for Swansea before being sold to Spurs but no chance of dislodging Kayne so only 1 goal. He's 33 and almost done and wants a new challenge and who knows? I guess if Biesla takes over we will hear plenty of stories about loan moves from Spuds and City Hernandez has plenty of offers and until things are decided at Leeds I dont think we will see him or anyone else. It makes sense to not bother with overseas pre season now doesn't it as the new coach will want as much time as he can get with the lads
Morning all. All thats happened yet since season finished is Heck and all the back room gone. Hopefully something on a positive note happens soon or several things
Not sure a couple of hours on a plane would disrupt weeks of preseason. its rad penny pinching and it might well cost us given we are playing no quality sides pre season.
Good morning everyone hope we get some news today,nothing more to add really, just that i hope when it comes, it's good news. kelly & Baird for me.
Good Morning to Matt and co from a dull Bardsey Well it could all kickoff this week new manager and some quality signings.Would Loreint come for less wages ,He is a good finisher Would Barkley fall into a new formation I think Paulie would adapt better Lansbury must be worth a punt Villa are having a fire salestill like Madison and Marriot for new format Baird who got me tickets for the cup semi final and Kelly because he bought me a pint at the Bingley
Good morning all Here we are at the start of yet another week full of hope and expectation. That guy Wallace in WJ's video for me, 10 like him and we are home and dry.
Its not so funny anymore having watched it for so many years now......you guys getting all your hopes up just to be kicked down again can we change the record
You gotta admire Heckybottom signed a contract with a team he publicly stated he hated which said if youre sacked within 6 months you get 1m wish Wetsham would offer me the same deal fook me no wonder your results were bad a little tip try offering your next manager a WIN bonus
Pre season is just about fitness,sure they can arrange as many behind closed door games as they want.
I was hoping to go abroad to watch us.now the biggest game is against las palmas .im sure there was only seven of them.
Could be worse,millwall can never get anyone who wants to play them pre season,their highlight is bromley sewage works every season.
