Hamer coming up the M1 will do the rounds for sure. I would definitely take up Burrows and Cooper

I understand we are paying £200M which makes sense because we're upgrading 2 sides, not building the whole thing from scratch

Stadium redevelopment is outside PSR so yep - that's where the owners funds will go. PSR remains in place for the transfer window so there's a limit to what we spend which hasn't changed

was it good though? 😀

VAR is not something I'm looking forward to. I was getting used to celebrating when the ball hit the back of the net. The idea of waiting 5-6 minutes to be told there's some leftfield reason why the big 6 team scored and we didn't.

Agreed - going to a back 5 and trying to hold out won't suit our DNA. If rumours are true and a top DCM comes in then we have effectively gone to a back 3 (Ampadu/Struijk, Phillips/Gruev, Rodon) with Tanaka just ahead - let the fullbacks go for it

Agreed, but what everybody forgets is the ops costs that go with the promotion. We may have £100M extra to spend this summer, but for every £10M spent on a player there's the wages and fees and tax etc etc. It's not a simple case of buy a player for £20M and then sell a player for £20M all square.... That's why we ended up with £200M of sales debt despite not seemingly having such a transfer deficit under Radz. We put deals on the length of the contract so still had the credit card bill to pay but the cash had all gone.

Get in there.... OP to be updated again shortly 😀

I'll volunteer. Somebody needs to make sure threads about flamin' Glenn Hoddle or any dodgy weather forecasts are banned.

Pending Pending Pending BOOM!! We're here!!!

It's getting harder for me to simply access the site these days - there are so many adverts if I click too quickly then I get the "oops something has gone wrong" message and I have to start again.

I've had another go at editing the OP.... Richarlison the latest clickbait in, Vardy yesterday - also rumours Joseph and Debayo get a loan to rangers. I reckon there will be no end of Leeds-Rangers links over the next 2 months... maybe we should start a bingo game.

I'm really pleased Marathe has now come out and confirmed he's the man for next season - regardless of what's been rumoured, he's now got the chance he deserves. Wait for the BBC to be on the sack trail after the end of August.....

Ha ha! Very true...

WE ARE GOOD ENOUGH

Lets finish this season in style and the fans that go have a great time without a repeat of Bournemouth 1990. Plymouth have fought hard and I feel a bit sorry for them having been handicapped by Rooney Plymouth 1-2 Leeds

I am jealous - I loved the Preston game for the atmosphere and was well happy to be down at ER after the Stoke game too - but the yellow scarves and the whole occasion looked fab v Bristol

I know Lightwater Valley well - it's not the theme park it used to be. More of a shopping park. Mother Shipton's cave in Knaresborough is worth an hour. Wetherby for the park and chips if the weather is good York has lots of good stuff, Jorvik centre, Clifford's tower, there's a ghost train etc and York outlet for shopping - if you can't entertain the girls there you're in trouble :-)

Fantastic experience and well done to the lads. Inaugural winners of the trophy!!

The planning application references "up to 56,500" but the current plans and artwork are for a 53,000 upgrade - I guess they have a small amount of wiggle room should they wish to use it.
