Was that offside by any chance? Guess they would have been showing it from the relevant view if it was......

 

[Catman]

Honourable defensive effort but still a loss. Meh.

Far bigger fish to fry this season.

Yep, no more Cup distractions, no more excuses for not making play-offs.

Biggest distraction is our Ken

Re Second raters and cast offs

"Californian Rogers spent one season with Dutch side Heerenveen in 2006/07, but never made the first team and returned to America with Columbus Crew the following year." _- Footy mad.com

doesn't sound any better than the lot we've got

Couldn't crack a game for the mighty Heerenveen? Hopefully he's done some serious improving since.

 

[Catman]

To be fair, he was only 19 at Heerenveen so I think it's a little harsh to judge him at such a young age. The fact that they signed him in the first place would suggest he was showing a fair bit.

Regular US International as well so he can't be that bad. I'm prepared to give him a chance.

yeah but spent the last 3-4 seasons in the mls
better gettin some one with a bit of first div experiance no?
do we need another winger /striker/ anyway?
good luck to him hope he does well

 

[Catman]

do we need another winger /striker/ anyway?

He's either going to be squad depth or Snodgrass is going. I sure hope it's the former.

1 all draw with Palace this morning. Had a 1-man advantage for over a half but could only find an equaliser.

We really need to string a few wins together, even though we're only 4 pts out of the playoff spots.

 

[Jaymin]

Talk of Villa loaning Fabian Delph back to us.

Hopefully it happens as he would be a welcome addition.

Adam Clayton on the way out ?

 

[Catman]

Club have accepted an offer for Howson from Norwich.

So much for the promotion push. Grayson's been told to get promotion, but is having his best players sold right under his nose. What chance does he have and just where is this club going?

Where is the ambition?

Bates is the problem

 

[year of the roo]

Howson is leaving (or at least not re-signing) as he knows the club has no ambition and is simply full of hot air. Clayton and McCormack are serious chances to go as well. Bolton are eyeing Lees. Snodgrass will eventually become sick of not being able to test himself in the Championship.

Stuff promotion. That ain't happening. We should be more wary of rejoining League One. It may not happen this season, but if we continue to sell our good players and bring in rubbish, then next season could be a horrible one.

 

[Catman]

then next season could be a horrible one.

This season isn't over yet...

 

[year of the roo]

This season isn't over yet...

No I suppose we could get bought out by some uber rich Arabs and find some decent players before the transfer window closes. But let's be honest, if the status quo remains, the season effectively is over. We're not getting promoted, nothing else matters.

 

[Jaymin]

Looks like I'll have to change my avatar.

What is the bet Snodgrass gets sold on the last day of the transfer window.

So that is Gradel, Howson and Schmeichel sold and no money spent on players coming in.

You forgot about Pugh already????!!

Not to mention we lost Kilkenny and Johnson who were on decent coin too. It really is a sorry tale.

killa and johnson were not the greatest players, yes good players but nothing that will push us to the epl.

Yeah that's not what I was getting at. They were getting decent wages and have not really been replaced.

Bates is the problem

If thats they way you feel I would urge you and any others who feel the same way to join the Leeds United Supporters Trust, it's free & will only take a minute to register here===>http://lufctrust.us2.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=961b4c64f7799c1c11c962c47&id=59250534e8

PRESS RELEASE: Supporters Trust campaign for regime change at the club







Friday, January 20, 2012 at 4:25PM
The Leeds United Supporters Trust today calls for the Chairman and board of Leeds United to actively look to sell the club to owners whose ambitions and resources more appropriately reflect the stature of the club and its loyal fans. We believe the time is now right for the current regime to step aside and allow the club to move forward. Overwhelmingly the majority of our members have asked us to campaign for this.
After 7 challenging years in control, our members believe that it is time for change at Leeds United and we believe the overwhelming majority of Leeds United supporters feel the same way therefore the Trust will be supporting peaceful campaigning for new ownership in the days, weeks and months ahead and we urge the Chairman and the board to listen.
