There were some who scoffed, mocking the idea that Leeds could be reborn under Warnock unless the rumoured mystery buyer became a reality, and questioning whether Ken Bates would back his manager in the transfer market. As weeks slipped by with only Jason Pearce recruited, wise sages nodded their heads and sarcastic bloggers stabbed with their verbal knives. Poor Leeds fans squirmed in irritation as supporters of upstart rival clubs, clubs without the great history and heritage of Leeds United, mocked and jibed at their expense. Until the mighty Leeds United made them eat their words!
There are transfer deals that capture the imagination and which, when announced, make the football world collectively take a sharp intake of breath. We might think here of West Ham's signing of Tevez and Mascherano, of Tottenham's capture of Ardiles and Villa, of Leeds United's own investment in McGovern and O'Hare, of Manchester United's purchase of Cantona and McQueen and Jordan...and today, June 20th 2012 Leeds United added another deal to that pantheon with the startling announcement of their latest signing.
This is not a Jason Pearce, nor is it an Adam Drury, no this signing is in a new league entirely as Warnock has landed the top international footballer Paul Green. Capped twelve times by the Republic of Ireland, the former Doncaster and Derby County midfielder takes the Warnock revolution to a new level. Thoughts turn to Johnny Giles, to Gordon Strachan, to Gary Speed, to Gary McAllister, to Billy Bremner, to Tony Currie, to David Batty, to Vinnie Jones, to Carlton Palmer, to Harry Kewell, to Lee Bowyer, and to the great Cantona himself!
Who needs Snodgrass now? He can take a running jump straight in to the Premiership. The Warnock revolution is underway. Pearce, Drury, Green, the question is, who next?
And all this before the big takeover! Neil needs to take care keeping in mind maximum squad sizes in the Prem!

Absolutely. A fantastic signing. Things finally moving in the right direction for The Mighty Whites.
knobhead
Have West Sham signed a single player so far? I doubt whether you could attract even the players we've signed
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
..
No
Zzzzzzzzz
dull as chips without gravy ain't ya
I hear Warnock is looking in to signing the whole West Ham team because the dummies we practice free kicks over are broken
Doh! fell for it again and clicked on this nutters blog after seeing the title.
You must be obese.
Even us Aussies are getting bored with this cockney clown, by the way never met a WHU fan ere in OZ, plenty of Leeds fans though.
I'm forever blowing bubbles ..... Out of my arse in the bath! C**k
so little happening at bubble blowing hq all this idiot can do is write about leeds. get a life or flit to beeston, or do you already live there?
you are a bitter little twat. you can keep on trying to be amusing, but unfortunatley your just a dick head.expect to see the shammers bottom of the premiership next may. ha ha ha.mot.
Hold kjeft, din helvets forbannede drittfaen!
Convict's genes 2053?
Apologies to all the Hammers in Oz!
Richard, yes we have. If you check out the history panel you will see that Jussi, Henderson and Diame have all joined. At least four more to follow apparently. Jussi and Diame both have extensive Premiership experience of course. Unlike Green.
West Spam have signed who? Premier League experience? With who? Obviously big names since the papers are all over it.....wait a minute,they're too busy covering events at Elland Road. Do everyone a favour and drop dead you basement dwelling,jealous,fat Cockney wanker!
Do they not teach grammar up north?
Fadge
Maybe that is because Leeds is such a shit hole they all have it on their toes and sod off to to the other side of the world at the first opportunity. Xx
LOL yes 2213 but they spell it grammer.
no idea why you bother
your owners should print a picture of you blowing bubles in their porn mags !
I'm a west ham fan and even I'm getting a bit bored of reading all this sh1t! Just concentrate on our club doing what they can in the Prem league this year and forget about all the Leeds & QPR slating. I log on to read WH news, so stick with being a WH blog.
Big boys now you're in the premiership?, Your fans were pathetic at elland road! You'll struggle soon with your corrupt owners, a time will come and nobody will sympathise with you
Hmmm bit of jealousy here I think.... #coyi
I don't get it guys. Leeds fans come on here boasting about the capture of Green so I give it the big billing, and how do you respond? There's no pleasing some people is there? Is the guy a top signing or simply another mediocre free transfer? You pays your money to Master Bates and makes your choice!
Why are you so obsessed with leeds mate. West ham are doing well so would have thought you could write about your own club. You really need to get out more, your obsession isn't healthy.
Better than your shit hole.
Paddy Kenny deal. Done?
We come on here because you chat constant shi*e about leeds united, fling insults our way what do you think we going to do??? It bordering on obsession well now your own fans even sick of your terrible work, you petty vendictive sad little exscuse of a man. Have you even reported on the signings you lot have made?? If you put half as much effert into your own team you be a hell of a supporter unfortunatley you arn't, you even have the gaul to say its our fault we deserve it. You are a coward and a fool i bet you are feeling pretty stupid now. WE ARE LEEDS UNITED WE MARCHING ON TOGETHER. YOU WA#KER HA HA HA HA HA
Please a get a life and starting writing about your own team. you obviously have a obsession, get help or maybe get laid.
It must be shit following a team who've NEVER won the league, NEVER even been runners up, or NEVER even won the league cup. No wonder you're infatuated with Leeds United. Get a life you southern wank wipe.
Whats your problem with Leeds matey? Is it that we've always outplayed you and been a bigger club than you? Enjoy your 1 year stay in the Prem. We'll piss ourselves as we pass you :)
If like to say 99.99% of West Ham fans don't agree with this clown. Can't believe I clicked on this link again. When is this site going to have something decent on it. It looks like its written by a ten year old. It just doesn't make sense.
I sense a closet Leeds fan.
Leeds supporter for over 40 years and proud of it. I have absolutely no interest in any other club.
Drop the pretence and admit it!

Blowing ' bubles ' in their porn mags?
Do you mean ' bugles ' by any chance?
I have to inform you however,the West Ham owners are no longer proprietors of porn mags. They were all sold to someone in the Leeds area. ( Master Bates by any chance?)
Cock !
Get off the bloggers back, Jesus, you Leeds fans paint yourself in glory! Eveyone is entitled to free speech! If this fella has a Leeds fetish then let him have it! Through will say I can think of better! Ha ha..........
I'm sure Green is a Lovely Geezer, but you have to ask what direction Neil Warnock plans to take Leeds - If its up, why is he signing League 1 standard players?
If Warnock wants to get Leeds into the Premiership, why is he signing League 1 stabndard players? I'm sure Green is a Lovely Geezer but the truth is - he's not very good
I am a West Ham fan and I have to say I am embarassed and ashamed by this site. We shouldn't define ourselves by attacking other clubs, it just makes us look small and pathetic. Please, please, please stop!
What a cock end this Blogger is. I see the Wham boys have lost their goalie. Maybe you could buy the Leeds goalkeeper , the one who let in 5 vs Blackpool. Lol Wham back to championship next season . Haha.
Come on big northern sam the leader of the this spunk blowers team !! Take them back were they belong cos what a poor team they are. West ham agree i little bit bigger than leyton orient ? People will even argue about that. and i almost forgot to say how much of a dick you are !!!!! DICK
Now now boys, it's only a game!!
England no2 prefers to play for qpr than you !! Enough said really!

1802, let's rewrite that headline shall we? "West Ham not stupid enough to pay £50k per week for Number Two keeper!"
1804 Long enough to keep us in the Prem!
Its why GREEN jumped ship that you should be concerned about kid.
He didn't really want to stay after that did he when he was offered a place at west ham he didn't know who they were !! What does that say about west ham

has anybody actually wondered what kind of profession hammersfan practices? the guy appears to have a level of education and i must admit he possesses a sense of humour.(i'm leeds fan by the way).i would guess hammersfan is not working class judging by the amount of time he devotes to blogging and its safe to say he has a deep rooted hatred towards lufc. i wonder why?
glory glory Leeds utd
