Just want to say well played! Everyone the lads on pitch and the fans it was a great day! Am happy for varney brown and pelts they showed us all what they can do - hopefully it will give them confidence to carry on as well. Byram was out of this world as well as Mccormack and Tom lees! Great atmosphere lets hope we start playing like this in the league if we do we're sure to fly up the league

I think that was the plan all along

I live in Cork now so havnt got to ER in 2 years so obviously I cannot claim to be an expert on current players. But going by TV matches I do think Varney has got a hard time as when I have seen him he's done ok at worst and today I thought he was excellent. Good touch and he stretched the defence on numerious occasions. Also he absolutely worked his nuts off. On the other hand when I've watched Peltier he's been awful but he looked a different player today in the centre alongside Lees. Actually the whole defence looked 10 times more resilant than earlier in season.. Now all we need is a bit of consistancy along with a ball playing CM and we shouldn't be far away. {top 2} Oh yeah a pacey winger wouldn't go amiss!!

And who do you support exactly? I can only hope it's Chelsea, Man Utd, Liverpool or City, because not too many other teams have won anything either recently. This was a very bad day at the office, but Elland Road is not the easiest place to go, due to there imense fans, Warnock had them riled up, they pressed superly, and too many of our players weren't at the races. But we'll bounce back, hopefully at Carrow Road on Wednesday.

i red this I thought it proves elland road can to a tough place to come WITH fans

Here I am again, the 18 year old lad from brighton, made the 9 hour round trip once more again today and boy am I delighted that I did. I have always been full of praise for Warnock and his mentality and today we showed exactly why we should be considered a sleeping giant! ANOTHER prem side has come to the fortress that is elland road and come up short, 7 wins in a row at home, and in my opinion time to start filling those seats, make leeds a living nightmare for players to come and play, as the great soccer saturday pundit, charlie nicholas said "the sheer volume of noise coming from the leeds fans has terrified them" lets make this happen once more, lets put in final push, lets get back to that all important premier league, and lets all back Neil Warnock, GFH and all those players in the white shirts.

Strange isn't it? In many ways a great deal of what is going on is what we want.. Byram following Lees and Poleon by signing in to the future. we might not keep them [and won't if we don't go up soon] but at least we won't have the misery of seeing thm go for next to nothing or being tapped up because they have less than a year on their contract left.

Becchio has been offered as much and maybe more than any of the canary whites were offered so there must be something in the war chest. It is his advisors that are screwing him and it is right to say we have gone as far as we are going to now on your bike if you don't like it.

The one thing that is warped is the silence. why aren't the owners saying anything? Harvey is as mute as usual and Colin is more passive than he is normally.

Dont get me wrong I don't want a return of PR Pete but someone should be steering the right noises.

BTW I for one think we will see some action between now and the end of the window. Once one goes it frees the logjam and to be honest other than Wood I haven't been too upset by what the other teams around us have done yet. TeeCee

Excellent game today, Byram pure class, Bale had to switch sides today to get away from him.
Paulmot

Believable12 Unbelievable4

Agree Byram pure class but Bale switched wings from right in 1st half to left in 2nd because Lennon who was out left in 1st half couldn't get out of Byram's pocket. You've got me wondering if I was at a different match or I can't tell my left from my right?

Hi guys
I know I may get a few backs up with this comment but I
I think that we played proper football today and it was the best performances for a very long time
And in my opinion it was because we wasn't trying to knock the ball long to Mr Becchio

Sam Byram was my MOM I thought has was exceptional just like the rest of the team

So now let's kick on and fight like this in the league and get 30000 in those stands every week

Just lay off them a little and the results will come

What drugs had brown been on?? Immense today I thought, tho his head went last minute. White was top class too and peltier, they all were but along with byram these stood out(maybe its because they are sometimes liabilities!) its so nice to come on here and not read criticism. Up the whites! And a bye into the next round to boot! {Ed013's Note - To be fair Brown has done well this season}

Dindane on trial! He was in akbhars Friday evening with el hadji diouf and at the game today with mini diouf!
I was talking to el hadji as we waited for our food, top bloke asked me several questions from a fans point of view, namely how I thought our season was going....he reckons 1/2 will come in before next Thursday and says if we tighten up at the back wel win more. I mentioned everyone misses snodgrass and gradel when I mentioned maxi that was when he introduced me to dindane saying they had played together for Ivory Coast! Elsewhere habibou and a winger probably on cards. Goole white MOT

Really? El Hadj plays for Senegal so that's another pathetic post made up by someone who can't be a**ed to do their homework. Why do you even bother?

Mad mick

Agree10 Disagree3

Some people don't read posts properly, you've abused the original poster for saying he introduced dindane who played with him for ivory coast, if ypu read carefully he implied gradel played with dindane not diouf

I think he meant Gradel and Dindane played together but that isn't even true as the last time Dindane played for Ivory Coast was before Gradel got his first cap anyway.

I think we have finally found a CB pairing that will work! Lees & Peltier: The laters who's last ditch tackle today on Tottenham's Obika was a thing of beauty. Pearce is also a more than capable Back-up!
Byram and White today kept 2 world class wingers at bay, and for me keeping Byram long-term is a lot more important than keeping Becchio! The reason being he is much younger, very promising, and today we kept the ball on the deck and produced probably the performance of the season without the big man! Just my opinion

What a great result (For those who don't know - we will be ball number 8 in the draw this evening).

I looked at the team line-ups before the match and said to myself - 'Oh please not Varney'. Then, after the goal, and the performance, maybe I know nothing about football!

Everyone played well today, and I salute the performances, BUT, if we can play like this in the cup, then we should be doing it every week! And the way we played football today (And I hate to say this), maybe shows that Becchio wouldn't be too much of a loss?

MOT! WMS!

Two things come to mind after our brilliant result today. 1. Stop slagging players off - Varney and Brown were top drawer today. 2. The team as a whole should be ashamed of themselves, they have proven today that they can play positive, attacking, passing football - why can't they do it every week?

Believable16 Unbelievable1

Brown man of the match

Agree7 Disagree0

27 Jan 2013 16:29:53
The players we get on about we're fantastic today.

Peltier was once again solid at CB. He made a fantastic tackle on Obika to save a goal.

White had a pretty good game and helped keep Lennon and bale quiet.

Brown got his customary yellow card after a silly tackle in added on time which could have cost us but it didn't . For the rest of the game he was awesome getting vital blocks in. Pretty obvious he struggles with his pace towards the end of a match but that's to be expected.

Varney was fantastic today he ran the channels well, took on players and he's got great pace. Good to see him finally score. Hopefully he'll do well for us regularly.

Byram, lees, McCormack and diouf were all top class today. Shows that they really are premier league class

First half over, Brown and Peltier are the rocks in the team, Peltier seems a lot more composed and confident in the middle and I hope he gets his confidence back.

Cracking first half for once. Great selection in terms of White. Although he isn't always the most switched on in defence he's got the pace to deal with bale. Was a bit skepitcal when I saw brown on the team sheet but he has been the best player on the pitch more of the same

Better second half. Brown was awesome, so was Mac. Well taken goal by Reg when he had plenty of time to f**k up. El Hadj for me was a class above. He has prem class and it shows with his intelligent hold up play and passing. He never looks hurried and has the confidence in his own ability not to be phased by the opposition no matter who they are... Oh yeah add to that great defending by Pelts, White (on Bale) and Sam... in fact well done all the lads, great shift put in by all. let's take this confidence into the next few league games... On On On!!

When did Brown become captain?

Believable5 Unbelievable0

Warnock gives the captaincy to a player who plays their former club.

Agree2 Disagree0

I thought that but then realised its his spurs connection. Warnock did the same with diouf against bolton.

Agree0 Disagree0

When he has received as much flack as he has over the last week/fortnight it's nice to say well done Neil Warnock. Today he was tactically astute and got it spot on. I hope Brown isn't drug tested because he looked like he was on speed to me! He was box to box and broke up their play constantly. Bale didn't do much. OK he supplied the goal and had a few runs but nothing like I thought he would do. Lennon wasn't even in the game... well done Neil

Playing against his old team today mate. Think Pelts will be captain again after this

I don't follow French football so you will have to excuse me if he's injured or suspended but I happened to check the St Etienne line up on my scores app a minute ago to notice gradel not even on the bench today!?

A late move maybe!? hopefully!?

Bechio not even on bench good

Dissapointed about brown and both starting though

Believable3 Unbelievable4

He, s still a leeds player until he leaves should have given him a chance to go out in a blaze of glory and up his price at the same time.

27 Jan 2013 13:32:27
our site states he starts so lets get behind him

Agree1 Disagree1

27 Jan 2013 13:47:31
Varney and brown sorry

Agree2 Disagree2

Not only is he starting but he's our captain. God help us

Agree1 Disagree2

HAHA a great goal from varney and heart and desire from brown for 94 mins! maybe we should give them a bit more support and then that bit of confidence will help give us more results like today.

I hope the extra 10k Leeds fans at today's game enjoy their last game of the season, hope to see them all at the remaining home league games............ But we know full well they won't be there!! Support Leeds, not the glamour of the opposition!!

Believable10 Unbelievable2

I'm staying away from all games for the first time in 10 years so I wonT be there today either. Your devisive post does nothing to pursued me back, if this carries on I reckon gates will be down to 15 thousand soon, enjoy!

Agree3 Disagree3

Rather support the opposition than that awful team just announced, god it makes me want to cry.

Agree0 Disagree4

27 Jan 2013 15:59:09
OMG! that awful team just beat Spurs! wot you gona do now?

Agree2 Disagree0

I think you and your negative nonsense is better off staying away... We were great today ..Brown was good, Varney had a great game, and Peltiers tackle right at the end was sublime... Crowd got behind the team and it showed... {Ed013's Note - My only negative is Austin! He is a liability at the minute}

Agree3 Disagree0

Rather suport the opposition? you sure about that??

Agree1 Disagree0

27 jan 2013 10:18:22
everyone boycotting games is pointless now bates is nothing now .. not being there just damages the club and means less funds for all the players you expect us to sign... back ghf with your money and support and they will be able to spend more on our team ...if you have problems staying away aren't going to solve them you can make baners and things to get your point across if your there you cant if your not { i would love to see banners with gradel's name all over elland road today} that's the only way to get your point across without financially destroying our club....... lufc forever

Believable10 Unbelievable5

I have been doing this for 20 years and until there is real investment in the team I will not anymore, it's your right to do what you want (to continue to put money into bates account) and it is my right to do what I want.

Agree6 Disagree0

The fans will be back when owners whoever they are start putting money into the team, times are hard & people can't justify spending money to watch crap.

Agree5 Disagree0

27 Jan 2013 10:15:30
We all know bates and GFH are still useless but Big game today so lets bring the house down and make the place rock. Today should be a day for the fans to show the true worth of our club. MOT!

Believable6 Unbelievable7

Its fans like you who are useless slagging of the new owners already. We can do without losers like you supporting our club.

Agree7 Disagree3

Agree to first comment - with only one exception: the phrase "fans like you"... There is NO way original poster should be named "fan"!

Agree1 Disagree1

I totally agree with the reply to the original post, there seems to be a constant stream of abuse directed at GFH before they have had time warm there seat as owners of our club. Please give them a chance.

Are these players worthy. Poss warnock and gradel apart are all the others going to make us better. Cms? Marquez? Habooboo ( that was my dearly departed does nickname. 15 years old white boxer. Passed away 3 months ago bless him. Lived 3 mo the beyond his 12 year old sister. Bless her. Both fantastic loyal frie des there whole lives ). He could kick a ball better than some we are linked with. Excited about Bryan. One step in the right direction but not about the rest if the rumours. I wound line to be able to say. Yep he is a fantastic buy a d will improve our squad. Rather than. Who is he and have to google utube them! Am I right lads

Dear Leeds Fans,

I am a Fan from Cornwall currently based in Bath and has finally found the courage to post on this site after months of religiously following it.

One reason I decided to post is because I happened to take some Flack from a Forest, Man United and Liverpool Fan tonight but there was only one person singing outside the pub at the end of the night and that was the Leeds United Fan!!!

I am 22 and very proud to be a Leeds fan I have Vaguely seen some great years and some very depressing ones as a Leeds Fan. I look forward to every game and unfortunately due to my location cannot get to every game, although I experienced a trip to Elland Road this Season (It was Brilliant, a magnificent feeling walking into the stadium)

I feel that the main point a lot of fans are missing out on is the consistency between the Leeds Performances. We played very well against Everton (Some Passing Football) and we also played well against Southampton (Game Watched in Person). LEEDS CAN PLAY GOOD FOOTBALL, they just need to do it on a consistent basis. This I feel should be a concern for Warnock!

Also lastly regarding transfers. We definitely Miss some Width. How many out and out Wingers can you name from our squad? We have basically been playing cm's in these positions all season!

Becchio thankyou for your services but if you have to go then you have to go!!!

Thanks

MOT from the SOUTHWEST!!!

On the subject of tomorrows game, heavy rain + melting snow making for quite a heavy pitch. Conditions may suit hoof-ball, something we have a bit of experience in...lol. Also will undermine, or at least level the odds a little against passing teams.

I feel an upset is on the cards!

I reckon becchio wanted to stay as he knows leeds is his home and it was his agent that said 'think about the financial security of your future'.
Because becchio is on form at the moment his agent wants to make the most money as he can and that can only be done at a different place to where becchios heart is!

Becchio just stay mate, no team who can adapt to the way you play as soon as they sign you can afford to pay your wages! In other words Wigan won't just start playing hoof-ball because you've signed, and that's how you play best.
