No harm in a little speculation.

Even if we don't go up (heaven forbid), we'd still need a few additions. You'd like to think James has a very good chance after he agreed terms with the club and is entering the last year of his contract, possibly 4m? A new AM/LW have to be entertained too with Pablo not getting any younger and Harrison back to Man City.

Can't see City wanting Harrison back with what they have already... would we want him if we go up?

Not for me, no.
When you retire, you switch bosses - from the one that hired you, to the one that married you.

Agreed, I think we need to find a few players with more quality - like trading Vinnie Jones for Gary Mac when we last got promoted from the 2nd division to the top flight. The club did a great job with finding and getting our goalie, I think they'd get it right with further strengthening our squad where we need it. We're more Wolves in terms of quality coach and personnel than Huddersfield and IF we go up this season, I can see us being top half of the Premiership next season.

I think Harrison's done alright and has shown enough potential to be worth a punt, so long as he doesn't want too much money and we get him on the cheap.
I can't see him commanding more than a couple of mil. and for that kind of dosh he's worth a squad place for me.

Need much better than Harrison if we go up, he's not going to cut the mustard in the Prem.

Lennon is a Leeds lad, played for Yorkshire Amateur. However, I think he is shot. Couldn't make it at Everton and is on the fringes at Burnley. I think the Premiership is a step to far for him now. Milner is the best shout, also a Leeds fan. He would make the ideal captain too. Need a striker (we need some muscle up-front) and a centre-back, don't know who though!
I once played against Don Revie.

Totally agree.
