Me and me girl named Jane
Just gone past Anfield on the bus and seen a bloke who looked like Brendon Rodgers talking to a bloke who looked like a young Gnarls Barkley at the 147 Bus stop. They were holding flasks and lunch boxes but they weren't fooling me. I know what they were up to.

Am I right to think that nobody in the Continent gives a flying fuck about this, and that any transfers that do take place are reported matter-of-factly, as opposed the fucking circus that ensues in the British media on every transfer window?
So-and-so might transfer to Crystal Palace before the deadline tonight- or could stay put at Blackpool instead. Be still my fucking heart!

Leeds appear to have lost our manager, managing director, and main sponsor, and replaced them with a dodgy new Italian owner, and apparently Gianluca Festa, ex boro defender, as manager who's got a record this season of 21 points from 19 games in the Italian 3rd division with his current club.
A recent adit on our apparent new owner's wiki page sums it up
The farce carried on after the transfer deadline as a load of Leeds fans blockaded the exit from the carpark at Elland Road, preventing the new owner from leaving for about 20 minutes, leaving him driving around the car park in a taxi searching for a way out.

Can't help thinking that the Chelsea bastard did us up like a kipper when he finally flogged us.
We really ought to get a fans consortium together to buy the club and be done with all this nonsense for ever.

Apparently McDermott has been reinstated? Your owner sounds like a lunatic. Apparently he almost bought us after the icelandics. There but for the grace... Etc.

it would seem so, but fuck knows if he'll actually come back just to be stabbed in the back again.
a cynic might think that he's just been invited back because a lawyer pointed out that his sacking was illegal as the person doing the sacking didn't even own the club at that point, plus the fans and players reaction I suppose.
Properly nutty shenanigans anyway, it really doesn't bode well.

Haha, he didn't even own the club? What a fuck up.

yeah, it seems they forgot about stuff like the fit and proper person test, and decided to sack McDermott and attempt to install their own guy (Festa) as well as attempting to bring in several Italian players all in the last few hours before the deadline.
We're fucking lucky not to have lost Ross McCormick as well, he'd been talked into staying by McDermott. Actually all the confusion does seem to have meant that none of the players rumored to be being flogged ended up being sold, which is good from a playing point of view, but apparently there's a £4 million payment due out for something this month that they can't currently afford, so that could be an issue if this all falls through.
