An Oldham fan said most of the games he came as a substitute and lately this season he started playing in the first 11 and bang in some goals.

Our team needs footballers who are comfortable in possession, players who are good at moving the ball around. If you've ever seen a Leeds match in the last two years you'll be all too aware of our love of kicking it high in the air and hoping someone gets a good knockdown.
Matt Smith is not an exciting signing, he is a throwback to a type of player we do not need nor does he have the technical ability to compensate for his obvious lack of agility.
So I'll go back to what I said originally: I wish we were keeping Somma and not signing Matt Smith. Smith is a waste, especially as we already have Stever Morison, a similar player but better in every department.

Dermott said he's close to sign another player, Skysports say it's Noel Hunt from Reading, free as well.
Justicar
But what about Noel Hunt?

Edited now.

I'm going to give you a list and let you guess what all of these players have in common:
Adam Dury
Luke Varney
Andy Gray
David Norris
Michael Brown
Billy Paynter
Neil Collins
Andy O'Brien
Zac Thompson
Alex Bruce
Paul Rachubka
Jason Croew
Shane Higgs
Enoch Showunmi
Mansour Assoumani
Curtis Weston
Leon Constantine
Sebastien Sorsa
Neil Kilkenny
Darren Kenton
Yep, all free signings.
Now here's another list:
Paul Green
El Hadji Diouf
Patrick Kisnorbo
Richard Naylor
Yes, they're all free too.
Going purely by track record, Matt Smith has a 75% chance of being a failure. Now couple that fact with the notion he is a striker and the modifier rises further.
Billy Paynter actually scored goals at a League One level and he was one of the worst players to pull on a Leeds shirt. Matt Smith can barely score at that level. It doesn't exactly strike you as an inspired signing. His money could have been better spent elsewhere.
Right now we have Morison, Diouf, McCormack, Poleon and Smith as forwards. If Smith's signing means we aren't bringing in another forwards, because let's be frank a rotation of five is quite a lot, then I'll be very disappointed.

Only signed Morison in January and Varney was last summer I think. Cant see them moving on so quickly.

It's not a loan, and it's for £1M...

If Bates was in charge we would definitely be known as Red Bull Leeds by now.

Red Bull Leeds
Marching on together we love Red Bull, Red bull, Red bull!!
I can just see it now, brilliant.

Good news for Leeds fans, and for football fans, and for all of humanity.

It is more curiousity omn my part as he hadn't taken charge of a club I like is all.
This changed a little after I read this elsewhere:
