Have to say Austin was correct in what he said about the officials but once again it smacks of one rule for a non-Leeds player & another rule for a Leeds player :roll:

Heard it now, he didn't swear so may that's the distinction

Remember us being linked with him when he was at Swindon.

We choose Billy Paynter :roll:

Oh dear...Paynter, Sacko and Ekuban

We would do better if they had a fans referendum on purchases!

I remember there being a T shirt on sale with a picture of a cows arse and a banjo and it said 'For the attention of Billy Paynter'. Absolute classic.

I doubt we could afford Austin as he''ll be on premiership wages

The time to nab him was when he was at Swindon

As Cjay posted we ended up with Paynter

We've made so many wrong decisions over the last 20 years

Yeah the difference being Austin would have cost £3m+ whereas Paynter was available for free (Bosman).
