I don't take any notice of them.

He did come back on - he replaced McGuire

I hope you are right but like you if he does arrive it will be far latter than sooner.

Um... he did

Now that Greggs aren't coming ... Wilsons Pies to get a free run ?

With whats Happened now anyone wish that we'd used some of Eastwoods money/cap space to give Scruton what he was wanting to stay?

Personally if we are not going to see Eastwood in a Leeds shirt and that is a distinct possibility I'd have liked to have kept Scruton.

This whole tightenening of the visa applications/process is going to make clubs think long and hard about recruitment plans for next season.

Maybe it might make clubs look more towards developing/giving their youngsters a chance.

Have to think twice about letting someone go for cap reasons to recruit a top/expensive overseas player only to find out he isn't allowed to play

Yeah I agree with that as Scruton brought more to the squad than simply his playing ability. The 'home town boy' factor motivated him and gave him an increased pride whenever he put on a Leeds shirt.

I don't know why but I think we will see him in a Leeds shirt again. He is only 24 after all.

As to what to do without Big Greg anyone think we can get Éric Anselme back or have I been out in the desert too long?

We don't want Anselme back mate, I'd rather develop Manning, Allen etc. If we bring anyone else in they'll have to be of higher quality than Anselme.

I know what you mean with the development of younger players but as the squad starts to develop little niggles and injuries would it not be better to have a player that has some experience and imo fitted into the structure of the team quite well. Plus if Anselme/A N Other could be taken on a short term contract it would not be to the detriment of the younger players.

Am I the only one who thought Anselme gave a good account of himself in a Leeds shirt last year?

IMO he had 2 good games but then started to look very shaky indeed.

Bring the Kids throu, what would have happened to Burrow, Sinfield, McGuire JJB, Bailey, Smith, etc if we did not give them a go -

Don't worry, not going to happen. He's still recovering from the smash that Kylie laid on him in the World Cup.

Great shout!

I'd have him in an instant.

If anyone can make it happen than the sleeve can!!!

I know SBW has a record of a lot of domestci infractions. Did any of them lead to criminal charges?

If so, forget it. If not, forget it anyway.

Correct. Wouldn't touch him with a barge pole.

He has a string of offences to his name.

My "Big Daft Lad" theory comes into play

Wasnt SBW caught driving under the influence of alcohol?

On a night out or on the terraces perhaps.

On the field, highly unlikely.

League Express gave top marks to Ian Kirke against Wankey, I mean Wakey.

If Kirke kicks on and continues to play well, Leeds fans will soon forget about lard Eastwood.

So because he's not likely to be coming, he's a lard now and Ian Kirke is a better option?

Whino tery at its finest.

I've championed Kirke for a little while now. I just felt that he needed to 'up' everything he does, so he runs and tackles like the big man he is. And he has. I bet he's learned a lot of JP, he seems to run a similar ark, with his head straight up. Why not learn from the best.

Good job he's tall then so he can see over the top of all his animals.

BOOOOOO GERRRROFFFFFFF


Your moving into my territory.
