Predictions for this summer

We let loads of generational talent like Lewis Bate, move on.
Lots of talk about Summerville and Gnonto, but it drags on and is used as an excuse as to why we can't buy players.
These loanee players start talking up how much they actually love Leeds.
Archie Gray doesn't go anywhere.
We sign Teemo Pukki
Ilan Meslier gets snapped up at last minute and we sign 37 year old replacement.
Accounts reveal we're still paying severance payments for Hockaday and Junior Lewis.
All of our fixtures get re-arranged for Sky.
Paraag Marathe's grandson designs our new strip.

The sale of Cry, Wilf and one or two others goes along way for a start.

Can anyone name more than 3-4 of the 34 clubs in the championship and bottom half of the Premier League that are NOT losing money every year, that are not under P&S pressures, that can keep all their best players every year AND are spending more whenever needed to ensure they meet the demands of their fans to win every game ?

No.
Didn’t think so.

That's another conversation but the debt can be managed albeit we lose our best players.

Agree. But that’s not the issue now is it. That’s the hand we got. Issue is what we do now.

But many on here seem to be expecting us to not sell, but buy everyone they can think of….. and 49ers can put whatever they’ve collected from investors in to pay for it.

It just don’t work that way.

This is the Jonty we know and love.
You forgot to add a points deduction because we are Leeds.
Five stars.

Where have you seen this? Weren’t we after him when Bielsa was here? Is it likely do you think?

We think we’re getting Adam’s, Smodics etc, end up with last minute scramble of loans.

Shame Rodonwont be here next season, but that’s what you get with loaning and improving other clubs players, meanwhile our players out loan are dropping in value like a stone and their massive fees cripple us for years.
