Been the same for years whether its golden thread, moneyball or anyother spin the club put out there. Should be questioned over the judgement on Orta. Yep I’m not too hopeful they will either Link to post Share on other sites

Which signings for Leeds has Orta facilitated that have been a major success? Most of the players were already there, have flopped or are signings that I doubt he was integral in signing. Could argue their two keepers, perhaps Helder Costa but he was already in England anyway and Wolves were looking to offload. They want rid of Augustin and they played Nketiah so little that he was recalled. Link to post Share on other sites

The weird thing is that Orta must have been at least partly responsible for the crap we signed in the summer before our Premier League season but people still act like the bloke is brilliant. I don't really see it myself. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really see it myself. There were a few transfer windows that were a mess. Gill was head of UK but was crowing about de Roon and Fischer. I don't think Orta was brilliant but it's hard to think of a good signing since he left and that's a lot of money down the drain pipe. I think in comparison Leeds have probably bought "better" over that same time period. Link to post Share on other sites

He was only here for 18 months and the summer window before the PL season was his main one. I thought it was an unmitigated disaster myself. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

BoroJake 2,345 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Warnock has just been interviewed and i don't know whether i am just misinterpreting it, but it doesn't particularly sound like he is staying on, just offering advice Link to post Share on other sites

Skinemrippers 895 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I read Warnock hasn’t asked for a wage over these past few weeks, just wanted to help us out. That can’t be right can it? If he’s not staying we must have someone lined up. Surely to god. Link to post Share on other sites

Something like that anyway. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I believe what he said is that they hadn't agreed on a payment yet but that he's sure him and Steve will come to some kind of arrangement. Which sounds nice and dodgy 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Whoppy 593 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 How confident are you guys that we would have been bottom 3 if we kept Woodgate? I just couldn't see us staying up so I'm very grateful to Warnock! 3 Link to post Share on other sites
