I’d go for Mikey Lewis before Abdul. Looks a genuine talent but not sure he’d get in front of Smith if the current coaching regime is to continue with Peet. Would be a decent appointment if we could attract Tony Smith too!

From what people are saying Miller will happen, id rather we waited to see what became available next year and looked to give someone a 1 year deal for next year, whether that be Tommy L or maybe someone like Dec Patton?

Well i know the fb forums have to be taken with a pinch of salt but a couple of days ago I was having a conversation about rumours and a paticular poster was adament that we looking for a fed trained player rather thn using a quota spot on a half back and he name he said that would be announced (according to his source..yeah that old chestnut) was Gale with Tommy stepping up as attacking coach. The other thing mentioned was it wouldnt be Peet as head coach but Winder with Briers as his assistant. Its personally think its all guess work, we will go with Peet and Briers and if we dont sign Miller we'll go with waht weve got in Smith and Field

If all that was true, it would be curtains for me. If the club is deliberately trying to implode than i'd rather not watch it happen.

Injuries aside Gale is a better player than Miller.

Really? Even Leeds fans have turned on Gale now.

Is that more to do with the mid season incident? (I don’t know by the way, just speculating).

FWIW I’d take Gale if he was available.

Just a few posts from the Leeds forum before the game this week! He seems like a bloke who has to be centre of attention, though I think he's been knocked down a few pegs by Leeds this year.

Gale has been border line appalling all year, his form does not warrant shoeing back in the side if anything other than 110% fit, that said he at least makes the bench as its a massive risk only going with one dedicated half back.

Gale hasn't done much this season. His kicking game has been terrible. He needs phasing out next season.

The benefit of Gale returning would be Myler being able to go to FB, he’s not had a good year though and it’s debatable whether the benefits would extend beyond that.

Fair enough. I would never have seen those comments as I don’t venture outside of this forum. He’s never struck me as that type of character but then again I’ve never paid much attention to him.

Gale would be a step in the right direction.

Fingers crossed.
