Think he had a fallout with Pearson at some point if I remember.
Also remember he had a bit of a reputation back in his P'boro days.

Didn't Matt Mills sign for them and then not play as well ??

Maybe it's Sean Dyche ?
He was a big, commanding centre-half who didn't take any ... prisoners :D
Perhaps he needs yes men in that role ?

Dyche is Burnley manager, mate, I think you mean Pearson ;).

Pearce - keep
Drury - release
Wootton - keep

Austin - Keep
Kebe - keep
Stewart - keep
Dawson - keep the bastered and set him off on loan
Murphy - hard to say but prob keep him just in case
Brown - release
Lennigan - loan
Mowatt - release
Norris - release
Pugh - release
Thompson - either loan/sell
Tongue - release
White - keep
Ariybi - give him a chance, id keep him
Green - sell


McCormack - Obviously must Keep
Poleon - keep, maybe loan
Hunt - release
Smith - release
Diouf - release
Varney - release

We need a good striker to play along side with mcCormack, someone creative in midfield a playmaker, and a decent keeper, and just like Aces said a solid exprience defender in the center

I would 100% keep Matt smith. He has had a steady goal return and is something different that anything else we had. Aidan White has had his chances, he needs to go.

Agree we need to keep Smith, to give him a full season at this level, to see how he gets on.

I am surprised by the number of players people think should be released :wtf: I guess fans think Cellino will buy a complete new team lol.

Nic, I think people have had enough, that's all ...

After two or three years of dross from this squad, it's not surprising that we want rid, especially as many of them have been relegated at previous clubs (Pompey being the obvious one!).

Does anyone think, we are collectively aiming low with our Keeps?

I have read some say we should keep the likes of Brown, Diouf, Tonge and Green, al have decent explanations as to why, but ...... Shouldn't we be hoping for and expecting more from Mr Cellino?

I have a feeling there's going to be a mass cull at the club this year, I think there will be so many players leaving, it will be a frenzy of transfers in and transfers out.

Exciting times ahead I think and hope.
We are Leeds, we have to believe our new players are good enough, encourage and support them and help them grow in to a team to be reckoned with. MoT
