So lets start almost a month ago. With there being as per usual lots of players expected to sign for the club, we got out first new signing under the McDermott regime which was 24 year old Matt Smith from Oldham who famously scored for them in the FA Cup against Oldham and Liverpool. I was interested in signing after seeing his performances in the FA Cup and since when it comes to scouting new talent McDermott seems to know what he's doing. We would have to wait some time for our next signing but it was an significant signing for the whites as it was out first £1million as Luke Murphy signed from Crewe. He looks like a good player and is very promising. The signing number three came when the worst kept secret in football was released and Noel Hunt signed for Leeds. I've always liked Hunt and bag wanted him at Leeds for a long time.
So it came to yesterday and Leeds were finally back and starting pre season at Farsley. I had been waiting for the match all week and as per usual it was a landslide for the whites winning 5-0 with Poleon and White getting 2 of them, Noel Hunt getting his first and Matt Smith getting 2 in his first match. I seems to be one of many congratulating the two on scoring on their debuts, my favourite image from the match was Noel Hunt trying to get the main part of Kung Fu Footy Player
