Leeds Banter Archive February 14 2018

 

Use our rumours form to send us leeds transfer rumours.

Broken phone, so hadn’t been on the site for a while thought how much I missed it, so reading back through all banter pages to catch up. Jeez when did we become so moany and negative!

And before I get hammered for everyone’s right to criticise of a under performing site I get that you pay your money you have your views of course. But in 2013/4 we didn’t know if we would actually exist in August 2014 we got Hockaday as manager! But that just brought some highly entertaining posts from Berm then we had the rollercoaster ride from our Italian saviour Whom without his money (and undoubted madness) we wouldn’t even have the site to complain again then along comes Radz who puts in more money than the last 10 years and so park buying the ground, stability and no debt no let’s go looking for something to nail him on Orta (yeah he’s no genius) but I guess Radz pays his money he takes his choice.

We are better today than we’ve been for many a year, if we don’t go up this year, but I’m a Leeds supporter what will be will be, And yes before something says it and god forbid we got relegated this year I’ll be a Leeds fan. what’s that saying about it’s not the destination it’s the journey? Even my old man supports Man Utd for Christ sakes and when he starts I always say this Man Utd have Fans. things that blow hot and cold where as Leeds have supporters you know. support underpins the team irrespective of what the level of success is at the time.

Not a rant just an observation that this banter site used to live up to it’s name but jeez when the team is struggling it’s not time to turn on the fans, it’s time for supporters? Could break the record in thumbs down here, but as I’m regularly assured I’m entitled to my view.

Well said, I do have to question the loyalty of some of the so called supporters here just lately they really have been bringing this great site down with all the bitching and moaning. People calling for a chairman to go that's done more in 6 months than we'v seen in 10 years, now there's even posts complaining about Tyler getting injured . guess what? players get injured.

Well said Class mate. But don't forget there are plenty of posters pretending to be Leeds fans.

Oh good point Cork 👍

14 Feb 2018 23:20:16
And who is that post aimed at Corkwhite? Just because some people have views through clear glasses some on here are not Leeds supporters! Why can’t some people on here embrace other people’s posts with an open mind instead of thinking crap, like those who don’t post nice things about Leeds are not true supporters! This is the real world with real people and real Leeds supporters, like it or not we have an opinion, don’t like it don’t read it!

I have been on this site a fair while apart from the odd fan of another club giving us info on a player there has been only one poster who was a Spurs fan, who in a nutshell was a total prat. As a fan, my main gripe has been our transfer policy and it's my view that we have signed way to many unknown players tested in this league. My thoughts; our too bigger squad not enough quality.

Agree0 Disagree0

15 Feb 2018 13:06:31
A lot of our support depends on the generation your from over the last 10-15 years we have more of happy clapper brigade that's quite happy seeing us finish in mid table mediocrity every season the older generation were brought up on success and passion ran through from the players to the fans and know what this club is more about and how big it can be.

the club looks more stable and appealing for investors or players to come than for a long time our support is not only national but global in the 70s and 80s only Man United and Liverpool had the supporters clubs we had no other club came near even when in the old 2nd division with poor crowds at home we still had coaches from all counties turning up at away games.

we all want Leeds to win and we all believe where Leeds number one fan but no fan is better than the next fan its just that some of us are more passionate than others rather than the easily pleased.

welcome back class - hope you add some optimism to the site to help balance things out.

Agree1 Disagree0

15 Feb 2018 15:18:53
Don't confuse disappointment with disloyalty. Some of us fans may only been on this site a short while but supporting the club for years. Thought the idea of banter was to have a say with others regardless of Wether we agree. Football as they say is about opinions and no one is right all the time (unless its the misses) I know a Fanatic could be described as someone who blindly follows a cause, but if we all did that as Leeds fans We would be wearing that stupid badge Now!

Disappointing news about Roberts, I was looking forward to seeing him play. I just hope now that Ekuban gets a run in the team, barring no injuries. He looked a decent player, has pace, holds the ball well and works hard. I think if he gets a goal quickly he will do well, let's hope. Drop roofe and play lassoga and Ekuban together. Get lassoga winning the headers and Ekuban running on, could be good.

Just seen the news that Roberts is injured, it's like an ongoing Soap Opera down ER way.

We might have a half decent first team if we had no injuries or red cards! I don’t understand why we first buy injured players as we have with Foreshaw and others and why when they have a medical they suddenly pull out without playing! All very frustrating!

Agree0 Disagree3

14 Feb 2018 19:53:24
Mike perhaps they are a bit cheaper like you get in the shops

Agree0 Disagree5

14 Feb 2018 21:32:20
Record, and, scratched, are the two words that spring to mind Mike and White. He got injured while training. Carp happens. It's the nature of sport.

Agree2 Disagree1

14 Feb 2018 22:18:22
Thumbs down. lol.

14 Feb 2018 22:49:26
Record and scratched to you as well Brightwhite! your comments relating to what Whiteman and I post are bordering on boring, are we not allowed to have our say? I don’t always agree with your posts but I don’t respond with an ignorant comment do I! I tell you what if you take the time to go right back to the start of the season and look and read at what Whiteman posted back then you might see that the scratched record was actually spot on with his posts! We are Leeds through and through but we don’t live in cloud cuckoo land we are just honest Leeds fans and spending over a £100 every home game which has been crap lately gives me the right to be a “scratched Record” Brightwhite

We are not going to get out of this league on the cheap, Rads may get a competitive squad together and have some good u23's to supplement it . They may or may not unearth the odd gem to sell on for big bucks, but at the end of the day if he wants the big riches of the premier league he is going to have to add 6,7 or 8 top proven players to get out of this league that is of course unless we get really really lucky and I can't see that happening

Whiteman. I'm not sure what you expect, or how you expect it to happen overnight, but it's plainly unrealistic.

Agree3 Disagree0

14 Feb 2018 13:49:06
One step at a time chaps. We lost but there was a def slight improvement in attitude and play. When he gets saiz and berahdi back etc. see how he does then. Our play off hopes are over so unless we start flirting with relegation its pointless getting rid of ph until summer. Give the man a chance. Sack orta instead

Believable2 Unbelievable2

14 Feb 2018 13:32:41
Tyler Roberts out injured can this season get any better. I guess he's one for the future because we ain't going to see him play any time soon!

Nope!

14 Feb 2018 13:08:05
What is it bout our recruitment process and medical testing. Too many of our signings are injured when they arrive or develop recurring injuries when they have been here a day or two. It wasn't that long ago at least six went down injured together just before matchday!

She's been a cruel mistress this year, love hurts. Spent lots of money, time and effort on her. She just doesn't seem interested, lacks ambition and her performance has been poor. Still i love her. She says she loves me too and we have a future, to be patient it may take 4 or 5 years.

She's been a cruel mistress this year, tells me she loves me but despite all the money, time and effort I've given, she doesn't appear interested. She is unwilling to entertain and toyed with changing her identity. Still she is the only one for me, she says we must look to the future as things will be better in 4 or 5 years. Happy Valentine's!

Thanks for the love Alf. I assume the unsigned card was from you. At least that's what I told the wife.
