TBF, Forest have a reasonable chance of making the Play-offs

No they don't. Too many things out of their hands. Same as Blackburn.

too many?

If they win their 2 remaining games then we are the only team that can finish ahead of them, and to do that we would need to at least pick up 7 points from the last 3 fixtures, possibly even win all 3 of them

[Kitsondinho]

Brighton have Yeovil on Friday......AFC B'mouth won't just roll over for Forest on Sat......and I may have looked at a pre Leeds v Forest table

[PistolPete]

Don't teams get extra cash every time they're on Sky?

Yep. Think it's something like £250k at this level?

[maffff]

Benito Carbone instilled as Head of Leeds's Academy.

No news on what roles Neil Redfearn or Richard Naylor. Cellino said their setup and structure wasn't up to scratch fro something costing £2m per year.

Carbone comes in for 6 months unpaid. He approached Cellino as he wants to try to get back into English football. He's managed a club in the second division in Italy with success, had offers from two others and one in the third tier. Seems to be looking for a Premier League job. So must have eyes on McDermott's role. Looks a bit different these days!



Kebe has returned to Palace.

PADDY KENNY has been axed by Leeds - because madcap owner Massimo Cellino hates the fact the goalkeeper is born on May 17.

oh and Hockaday, LOL

if they don't go down this season then there are going to be three all-time shit teams in the Championship

[Agent Balti]

Like watching a car crash in slow motion. Definitely candidates for the trap door, which is nice.

The comedy value in LOLeeds this season is going to rocket.

[TBM]

Leeds are now embarking on a cost-cutting process that has seen the canteen at their training ground closed down, meaning the players have to take packed lunches or send out for sandwiches. The players are also being made to pay to have their kits washed. Hockaday will not have control of transfer business and Cellino intends to flood the squad with free signings and cheap Italian imports. Stuart Taylor, who left Reading at the end of the season, has joined Leeds to take over from Kenny.

Don't know whether i want to laugh or cry at this

Purple 17 - let's hope he doesn't need a bus to Tilehurst any time soon.

Not because he came back from his summer holiday weighing in at 17 stone then.

[Pepe the Horseman]

You should be a ring announcer.

Not one to defend Leeds but I am reliable informed by a Leeds ST holder that the real story behind this is that they returned to pre season training but were due to go to fly out to Italy 2 days later so the club did not see the point in opening up the facilities for those 2 days.

£11m for McCormack How can Fulham justify that?

[No Fixed Abode]

£11m for McCormack How can Fulham justify that?

If Fulham go str8 back up and he's an integral part.

"It paid off, didn't it?" is not a good enough excuse for betting the farm on a coin toss.

[soggy biscuit]

Also doesnt mean they couldnt have done it with more prudent spending. Spending like that also has a knock on effect, anyone else they are trying to sign just got more expensive.

[TBM]

Thing is, they could have probably got him for a lot cheaper than that - especially considering he handed in a transfer request

[YateleyRoyal]

"Is that Leeds? This is Fulham. We want to offer you 8million for Ross McCormack."
"Done! We would have accepted half of that if we're honest..."
"Oh, playing hardball are we? Fine, 11m and not a penny more!'

[Royal Ginger]

Noel Hunt scores a first half hat-trick in a pointless friendly against an Italian part-time club. 16-0 is a Leeds club record. Stuart Taylor also played.
