True. Need Foreshaw back asap too.

God knows when he'll be back.

The frustration from me is that we could make it so much easier with a shrewd couple of signings but we wont..

With the the financial fair play rules we have to be careful, otherwise we could end up like Birmingham or Sheff Wednesday. It's not as simple spending a few million on a few players. There's other factors to consider.

Yes understand bud but the owners can put more of his own coin in to help nullify that but he won't. Theres no way in gods green earth Leeds cant afford to bring in a couple of astute signings in Jan (on top of what they have already I may add).

I wasn't aware of that Tad but if true then the club have done right.
Not sure what's happened to the defence but we are certainly shipping in a few when teams do come at us.
On tv tonight the feeling was Eddie is going back to Arsenal which is not good news.
When do we hear if Cassila is getting banned?
Midfield has gone and needs fresh legs too.

I don't think he can. I think under the rules there's only so much money the owner can put in to balance the books. I'm sure Radz and Kinnear mentioned it a few months back.

Or even a good loan or two. Clarke has gone so free's up a spot. A big nasty centre half would be a god send right now.
