GFH Capital, the new owners of Leeds United, will not spend ‘crazy money’ in the Januray transfer window. ‘January is not a great time to do business and we already have quite a good squad with others coming back from injury,’ said GFH executive Salem Patel. ‘What we want to do is to make the investment sustainable and make the club successful.’
Manager Neil Warnock has said that he does not want to spend ‘stupid money’, although Southampton’s Ricky Lambert is said to be among his targets.

One of the challenges for the new owners will be to boost attendances which have been averaging 21,000, although there were over 25,000 there yesterday. There are a number of explanations of the attendance figures, although cost in the context of the current economic climate certainly seems to be a factor.
