Transfer Window Review – Colson Smith talks Leeds with Heidi Haigh

Colson Smith joins Heidi Haigh from Follow Me and Leeds United to look back at the close of a busy summer transfer window at Elland Road. They discuss the business Leeds United have done, the new faces brought into Daniel Farke’s squad and whether the club has strengthened enough to build on last season’s 14th-place Premier League finish.

With seven summer additions ultimately arriving, including deadline-day signings Melvin Bard and Jean-Mattéo Bahoya, there is plenty for Colson and Heidi to talk about as the new-look squad begins to take shape.


Heidi also shares her thoughts on the new arrivals and her hopes for the 2026/27 season, as Leeds look to take another step forward in their second year back in the Premier League. After successfully establishing themselves in the top flight last season, can Farke and his strengthened squad push on again? Watch the full interview as Colson and Heidi discuss the transfer window, the season ahead and what Leeds supporters might have to look forward to.

Billy Bremner Gala Dinner 23rd May 2026 at The Gary Speed, Suite, Elland Road, Leeds. After meeting myself coming backwards so many times over the last few months, it was great to see our fundraising event for a statue for Billy in his hometown of Raploch, Stirling finally take place. I want to thank everyone who came and supported us plus a big thank you to our legends Paul Reaney, David Harvey, Allan Clarke and Mick Jones who played alongside Billy in our greatest Leeds United team ever. Thank you also to Glynn Snodin, Neil Aspin and Tommy Wright who all played for Billy for sharing their stories with the help of Jed Stone. Thank you to Billy’s daughter Amanda and her family who attended and for the flowers which are greatly appreciated. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive and I appreciate every comment. The Leeds United staff should also accept praise for providing the best meal that has been made at Elland Road. That compliment was said to me by many of our guests in attendance, so they can be proud of what they provided. To keep up to date with our events and fundraising, please follow my website https://www.followmeandleedsunited.co.uk/billy-bremner---statue-appeal for further details. The silent auction is still ongoing https://astarauction.com/billybremnergala , our online raffle is still live https://app.galabid.com/billy-bremner-legend and our four Billy Bremner badges are still proving popular, and I’ll have some with me at the game tomorrow. All priced at £5 each. I’m looking forward to a bit of recuperation for a few days after our last game of the season at West Ham but thank you once again to everyone for a very successful event.
