Right, it's official I've gone off football. Just seen on Wikipedia (hopefully not amended by mad mick) that Jack Clarke was born in this century. Holy, I'm feeling old 🙈.

07 Oct 2018 20:57:18
LIG WRONG! You're incorrect by 39 days but don't let that get you down.

07 Oct 2018 21:03:02
LIG I believe Ryan Edmondson was the inaugural 21st centurion to don the white of LUFC for your information.

07 Oct 2018 21:06:42
agree lucas think someone iin the england team was born this centruay as well. not happy at all and starting to doubt my england call up.

07 Oct 2018 21:43:07
GIW, he was born in November 2000 according to his Wiki page. I maybe old but I can just about read through these old man varifocul specs.

07 Oct 2018 21:56:43
Bermo, you may doubt your England call up but at least you have KP’s to look forward to 😂.

07 Oct 2018 22:35:00
LIG Exactly! No need to ram home your error. Why make yourself look more foolish?

07 Oct 2018 23:45:40
Not everyone knows a century is 100 and not 99 George :)

08 Oct 2018 08:47:54
Lucas, if you go to the under 23s, you’ll see a lot of the lads mums! That’ll make you feel very, very old!

08 Oct 2018 10:13:50
I was dreaming of Debbie Harry the other day. Then looked it up and she was born in 1945. Now that makes you feel old.

08 Oct 2018 10:20:59
lucas if kp gets a call up and i don't it shows there is no justice in this world. i hope we are in the same sqaud so i can call him slow and not mobile which is fine as I am proper slim and nimble!

08 Oct 2018 10:37:17
Ooh. Debbie Harry! Now we’re talking! Back in the day anyway. Now she just looks like my ex wife!

08 Oct 2018 12:04:29
yendo, nothing wrong with Dreaming of Debbie Harry or hanging on a telephone for her, a truly atomic lady! But don’t get me wrong, I preferred Chrissy Hynde in leather trousers! I was once at the front of the stage at one of her concerts and touched the trousers! I could tell she hadn’t got any brass in her pocket and I was soon the talk of the town!

08 Oct 2018 14:37:55
Never pick up a lass with no brass! ! Now Ms Harry, even with the atomic binliner on, yes please ;)

08 Oct 2018 15:00:54
Staffy Angela was hot in her day but I still feel we ought to be talking about my high levels of awareness following on from LIG's clanger.

08 Oct 2018 15:18:13
All these beautiful woman and only George would want to bring the conversation focus back on himself, next thing he will be giving himself tied 3rd place in poster of the year!

goo.gl/RXcsKb

i'm on 58 minutes in. oh look at me doing a George and pulling focus!

{Ed033's Note - Did you mean poser of the year? :)

08 Oct 2018 16:07:01
no comment ed.

08 Oct 2018 16:56:20
Ed033 Isn't that a tad pot calling the kettle black?

{Ed033's Note - No, i meant it as a joke.

08 Oct 2018 18:53:37
Very well Lord033. Keep up the good work.

{Lord033's Note - Thanks, Lord033 sounds good.

08 Oct 2018 21:18:14
I thought so and welcome.

07 Oct 2018 13:23:22
Superb to see Jack Clarke getting a chance yesterday. Made a few good runs, great cross almost converted and didn't look out classed at 17! Bielsa seems to be handling him well. Hope he now makes the bench regularly and perhaps sharing the right forward workload with Alioski . Having seen him at under 23s, I think Clarke is still working at the defensive running back part of his game which actually Alioski now does pretty well.

Luke Ayling can have a bit of a rest and it's a position where we are reasonably well covered with Berardi and Shackleton . If Berardi is fit, nice to see how he slots back into his natural position and given his recent CB time, might strengthen the defence.

07 Oct 2018 16:48:58
i agree beradi great cover and aling needs a rest he just looks out of sorts, only worry here is beradi don't like to get forward which is something MB demands of FB role, I think if nothing else beradi deserves a bit of a run in his actual position.

07 Oct 2018 19:53:08
Knowing Bielsa he’ll push Ayling harder in training as he’s not got any games to play. Should give him a rest and go away for a dirty weekend with his wife.

07 Oct 2018 21:07:38
dirty weekend with me and speedy i love ayliong.

08 Oct 2018 19:51:23
Someone should have a word with that Clarke lad, I mean pink boots? really?

07 Oct 2018 11:56:08
Would drop Saiz. Roberts. Ayling. And Harrison for next game.
Replace with Berardi. Clarke. Roofe and Forshaw.

07 Oct 2018 12:30:39
Thank the Lord we have a manager :)

07 Oct 2018 13:02:56
Wot not dropping KP? Bermondsey won’t come and visit you Aus!

07 Oct 2018 13:19:22
Wrong I will come and visit him with my power point presentation entitled KP. Really. Really. I MEAN REALLY!

it is follwed by waterboarding and a strip tease from Susan Boyle.

07 Oct 2018 13:44:59
Perhaps you should send that PowerPoint to Bielsa! He doesn’t seem to share your opinion either!

07 Oct 2018 16:50:11
what makes you think i haven't already? he has done well for leeds i almsot felt bad waterboarding him.

07 Oct 2018 21:33:29
But you didn't feel bad about making the poor person watch Susan Boyle strip Bermondsey?

07 Oct 2018 21:58:31
to be honest i think the water boarding was an improvement - kind of like desert. although old subo was looking hot, she has still got it!

07 Oct 2018 00:58:55
Draw a fair result and think we doing great with our injuries, missing key players, good to have international break now and rest and bring back players.
Pontus fantastic but still feel we need another CB (foyth) to help.
Ailing poor last few games, sloppy passing and missed Douglas today, did think alioski not bad as LB?
Brentford pressed us and that's why we made mistakes, Coopers error from their pressure. Thought their number 12 was fantastic, like a kante (buy him) , he bossed middle of park and was always close to saiz.
Alioski first half bad but improved 2nd, Harrison did nothing but great to see Clarke get on, did well.
They a good team and will take points off other top teams, Brom look strong.

07 Oct 2018 08:40:54
good post shad, i saw on FB Aliski get lots of stick again yet no pne mentioned harrsison who I thought was pointless again like he was in few other games, decent potnetial but too hit and miss for me.

07 Oct 2018 09:48:30
Would've been better off playing Dallas at RB Alioski LB with Clarke ahead of him and no Ayling altogether. Fan of Ayling but he's needed a rest for a week or two. Dallas is a rather useful utility player at this level. Criticism of Harrison unfair. He's still a youngling. He'll be PL quality in a few years. Want to see more of Clarke. Don't think opposing full backs will relish facing him.

07 Oct 2018 09:59:01
I know Alioski has his faults, but I agree he was better than Harrison. We really do needs some of the injured players back. We have some good young players coming through, but it was a worry at the beginning of the season that the squad wasn't big enough. If we are well in the mix in January, and I think we will be, investment in the squad is crucial, (Kinnear and Co take note) . Brentford were tough opponents yesterday and the Referee was awful for us. But we still showed spirit and character to equalise through the excellent Pontus. I know Dallas gets pushed into different positions and gives his all, but he doesn't seem to be able to really grasp his chance.

07 Oct 2018 10:30:40
true fev sprit against first class and that goes a long way.

George ciritsm of harrison ain't unfair really. i don't care if he will be a prem player in a few years he is on one year loan at leeds, if he can't make a difference now he needs to be sidlined. He has shown real qalitiy in patches and maybe even one motm display but overall has been innefective and as much as i feel sorry for man city and want to help them as they have a lack of players for the future leeds must come first!

07 Oct 2018 12:30:35
Bermondsey, are you really saying Brentford football team first class or are you talking about Brentford Nylons?

Brentford good team but not first class, look at their results and capacity to draw. Got a draw with us through a dodgy penalty, referee related to their owners . They are a good team but not first class.

Think you’ve got a bit of a southern bias going there, Millwall, Brentford!

07 Oct 2018 12:37:45
Too many on here seem to get on to Dallas a lot, Bub said he could have wimped out of the game with some injury but "side before self" for the young man :)

07 Oct 2018 12:47:53
Gotta admit Spanish they played us better than the other teams I’ve seen and always looked dangerous. I know the penalty was not, but they looked pretty good to me. Deserved of a point at our ground.

07 Oct 2018 13:14:29
yeah i think Brentford are a good footballing side, not a great team but play nice football and let's be honest they out played us and people on here reckon we are a great footballing side so logic must make them decent.

i don't have any biased towards millwall they are useless and fact we couldn't beat them and they were the better team worrys me more than anything.

07 Oct 2018 13:24:23
Berm Your view is demented. Most PL standard players play in the PL. At Championship level, Harrison ain't doing too bad. He's also deputizing for Pablo. My apologies for Radz not having CR7 as reserve. #LudicrousBerm.

07 Oct 2018 16:54:08
what is demented? you said he will be a prem player in years to come. i replied i don't care wha he will become because at that point it won't be for leeds. I care about here and now and for me he is too hit and miss, i also get that he is covering but my point is some of our cover ain't that great, which is a worry. Do I think harrision is good enough right here and now to get us promoted? no not really he is too inconsisitent and too easy to get him out of a game. Many have slated aloski, i understand that but for me alsioiski is far better than harrision here and now and getting better returns

also as a side note #probablytoooldtohashtag.

07 Oct 2018 17:30:00
My point is what else you expect? We're in the Championship. I am too old to hashtag but I could still give Vix a night to remember. #takemywordforit.

07 Oct 2018 17:44:38
i don't expect anything, i just comment on what i see and i don't expect harrision to tear up the league and help us get promotion. many have slated ailski yet not mentioned harrision, if i had to pick one it was be asiko all day long.

07 Oct 2018 18:27:30
Berm So you're a Captain Obvious then? Truly helpful. Yeah you see the thing I don't like about Harrison is where are his title winning medals, Cruyff like turns every game and 40 goal seasons like Ronaldo? Criticism must always be fair. Blaming a young player on loan to us in order to offset criticism levelled at one of our registered players silly and unnecessary.

07 Oct 2018 19:03:36
so I have gone from luadcis to obvious in the same post? Lots of media and fans are not sure harrision has what it takes for us right now. and also you are accusing me of blaming a loan player rather than one registered at leeds? you may not of noticed but most of my constant over the top obessive rants are at a player who is very much registered at leeds and one of our own. can't for the life of me think what his name is though, it's drivign me nuts.

06 Oct 2018 22:45:32
Obviously the referee is the main talking point which is always disappointing when you've been to a game and the less said about him the better.
Brentford were decent on the day quick, good movement and always looked dangerous. Yes they did try and waste time and the right back should have been sent off and the penalty was a dive but they play a similar way to us and we didn't have the answers today.
The plusses were Pontus, we got a point, Roberts did well with little support, Forshaw getting up to speed and that little cameo by Jack Clarke.
The negatives were Saiz not influencing a game again, this is exactly the type of game we need him to step up. Cooper returning to his league one player form, dreadful distribution. Harrison, Ayling and Alioski all having poor games.
We had Douglas, Roofe, Pablo, Berardi, Bamford and Brown missing and once they are all fit we will be very difficult to beat.
What is great is going to a game and genuinely thinking we will win and seeing players trying and playing good football even with half a team missing.
