I get that the 49ers like to do their transfer business on the quiet. No issues with this. Some players have been leaked and others have been a complete surprise .
What I do not understand is the lack of general information at times. With no Kinnear it seems we will no longer have a close season interview. We have have heard nothing from the board and nothing from the management yet.
In terms of the signings the new fad is for players to get some sort of video announcement - this close season nothing from Leeds. The home strip advert was poor but then they really went big on the new blue kit with the leeds would take more advert.
Today at 330pm I knew the Man Utd squad for Sweden. 5 outcasts and 3 injured players. I was able to see which kids had been included and start to form a picture of what they will look like tomorrow and ongoing into the season.
Some 8 hours later and I have absolutely no idea who has travelled with Leeds. I have probably wasted 30 minutes of my day hitting F5 and trying to find out. Last season we videoed each player getting onto the plane and you could tick off the players and see which were no longer in the plans. Its part of being a fan who lives and breathes every piece of news. The big question is whether Jack Harrison has gone, perhaps which youngsters and whether some of the fringe players like Greenwood, Gyabi and Joffy have gone.
Add in another mystery tour for pre-season behind closed doors which I would not be surprised if the club was fully on board.
Bit of nothing winge to some I appreciate but I got it off my chest at least!

I would imagine the squad are going to Germany straight after today so my feelings is they will want to keep the main squad together throughout. I think Crew, Gray, Chambers will be in Sweden.
Guiseley I expect to see the U21s minus those few.

They can just have two flights, one to Germany from Leeds and the other from Stockholm. Makes more sense for fitness building than players sitting on the bench and getting twenty minutes. Bielsa did a similar thing in his first summer with us, I recall.

What do you suggest?
Nothing comes close to Leeds United.
I dont like music.
I dont like politics and current affairs no longer.
I go to work and do my bit for the country.
Im active in the family.
On annual leave today so more time than normal.
Nothing comes close to Leeds United.

I get flak from the wife because she thinks everything revolves around Leeds United but even I’m not as bad as you😏🤣
I do get it, I really do, but as someone said to me yesterday. “ You aren’t 70 - you are 18 with 52 years experience of life.”
I guess I’m just more chilled these days.
Football can be frustrating at times though.

Why hasn't Bamford travelled.
Surely not injured yet.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe playing at Guisley? Ease him back in gently. Who knows? Could be selling him. Could be injured. Could have lost his passport 😏
