    Doc it looks like the Felix story is true, We're supposedly after Angus Gunn from Man City. We want him on a season long loan and to challenge BPF for the first choice spot.

    Not a rumour but I'm guessing that Lonegan is on his way out the door for a second time

    I'm going to start a rumor because I reckon its worth a punt. James Collins was told by Email that he was no longer needed by West Ham Utd. 12 years he has been there and is a top defender at Championship level, always gives 100% and Vinnie Jones has ripped into WHU calling them a bunch of c##ts for doing it. Just maybe Collins on a free is a way better bet than Bartley. Hernadez and Collins on freebies seems a no brainer to me, break the wage cap do it

    Isn't Collins a legend with them? Pretty sure he was out injured that last game I saw on the telly, and the tv bods were going on about him sitting in the stands in mufti amongst the fans, rather than using the club-provided seats. Might be mistaken ID on my part, but if he's a big baldy ginner with a beard, I've got it right. That's a disgraceful way to treat anyone, but a legend like him? Wow!

    Not Jocks favorite player obviously, but anyone who has played 66 times for Cardiff, 91 times for Villa and 188 times for WHU plus 64 times for Wales beats Kyle Bartley if we get him on a free. He sat with the fans because he thinks the ownership at WHU are shyte since the move to London Stadium. Hes a cult figure with the fans because the fans love him because he gives his all?

    Oh, I must have come over wrong. I have nothing against the guy. I was most impressed to see him in the stands & hear about his legend status. I wonder though why he wasn't playing & not even on the bench. Has he got long term injury problems? I actually remember him more for his Villa days that WHU, oddly enough.

    Seeing a bit of chatter on Twitter surrounding a chap who's ITK at the BCFC end. He's claiming a deal has been done for Joe Bryan. No idea if it has any substance, but I've since noticed a load of articles about him leaving & us being touted as a possible destination. As I recall, he's a LB, isn't he? Interesting - the LB bit. Raises all sorts of questions if it's true..

    Joe Bryan was touted last year he is probably best left sided player in the league but they will want at least £10m so out of the question

    Only 1 year left on his contract, though, so you never know.

    A no nonsense defender. Him and gabidon were a great pairing for us. Sold them as a pair to WH for £5m as we were stoney broke.
    He reads the game well so doesn't depend on pace.
    Can't imagine his salary being low though.
    A good signing if you get him.

    So we have 3 keepers on the go with Stockdale, Gunn and a Bulgirian U21 star as well as having BPF and young Pole Myazek so no way are we in for all 3.

    Danish kid Pederson from Hertha Berlin a left back, we need a top CB and there is Collins on a freebie, Huth on free so either or both need snapping up plus Bartley has gone quiet

    Marriot rumored to be going to Bristol? Where did they find £6m. We are close on a deal for Hernandez but will the newmanager be happy with just that or will Roberts be good enough

    A clue re. the delay in signing Hernandez. Apparently Phil Hay has uttered elsewhere that we can't afford both Hernandez & Vydra ...

    1. Super Leeds‏@superleedsutd72 5h5 hours ago
      All gone quiet with Abel Hernández ! Hoping it’s just a matter of time and was just waiting on the managerial appointment - what’s your thoughts Phil ?

    Replying to @superleedsutd72
    there are other strikers who Bielsa likes. His appointment will dictate how Leeds attack the market now. Hernandez still very much an option but for example, I know that Bielsa prefers Vydra

    Personally would go with Hernandez, it's a free as well so only available to strengthen elsewhere.
