it's just taking forever. supposedly the guy(sheikh mohammed al something or other) has been a leeds fan for years and tried to take over in 2003( wonder how that would have turned out if it had gone thru) that is what i am clinging too, that its a guy with a soft spot for the club and not some random oil tycoon. but yeah, needs to happen already.

sounds like norwich is getting closer to signing snoddy. according to YEP as of last night we are seriously considering their latest offer.

afternoon edit- aidy white signs a new 3 year deal. becchio, snoddy and drury all miss tonight w/ minor knocks but expected to feature sunday (assuming snoddy is still a leeds player)

If we lose Snodgrass and McCormack... we are going to be seriously lacking upfront (and both wings). Wonder who we will try and bring in...

Read where Aidy White signed for 3 years. Glad not to lose a good young player.

Luke Varney's transfer from Pompey held up by unpaid wages that need to be resolved. Also, the 300k for Varney will be paid directly to Derby who are still owed from his 750k move to Pompey last year.

Luke Varney had joined Leeds United from Portsmouth and Rodolfo Austin has joined from SK Brann.

It is only alleged on twitter fwiw. But the person alleging thinks they will announce the takeover with a marquee signing. Who knows...

We are also being linked with DJ Campbell

He has been coming on as a second half sub for Aidy out wide left. Could end up being a decent bit of business.
