Re: Gazza a Claret

Re: Summer transfer window 2023 - rumours, links and discussion.

I don't think looking at wingers is the right way to understand this. We have seen a lot of flexibility in all our attackers playing wide, central and up top meaning that we could have as many as 4 starting the match, and 4 subbed on. With a high intensity press they'll be knackered so rotation requ...

Archie Gray - son of former Burnley player Andy, looks to have a bit of quality about him. Aged 17, and not phased at all by the pace and physicality of the championship.
I'm led to believe his brother, Harry, is even better and is coming through Leeds' youth teams

Re: Summer transfer window 2023 - rumours, links and discussion.

It's worth noting that last season we were playing with 4 "wingers" in our system with them taking up LM RM AM and CF positions. To do similar and to have sufficient cover we need 2 for each position and then maybe a couple of extra so we don't end up in a pickle with an injury or two. It'll be a re...

Re: Famous Trialists

Was once told by Gazza he attended several trials with us as a schoolboy and we rejected him each time.

He said that us and Leeds were the 2 that every young lad were desperate to be taken on by.

I'm not sure he lived his dream when he did eventually sign for us though
