It's a fools game predicting final placing. But all 4 experts on 90 min basically have the current top two up and us and Southampton in play offs.
I have no clue how it will finish but if I had to pick one of the four to go up that would currently be Southampton.

{Ed's Note - MK Scouser has posted a new article entitled, Will Jurgen Klopp Leave Liverpool On A Whimper?

20 Apr 2024 00:17:47
After one point in three games there is no point in keeping a self-imposed silence.

There is no explanation as to why, but I have a very positive feeling about the next game and for some reason am sure it is going to be a win scoring 3 or more goals.

The last time I had a feeling like this it was correct and I hope it happens again and it is not just the effects of last night's chilli.

20 Apr 2024 01:06:25
Hope so Jungle. its a must win for Leeds United imo.

19 Apr 2024 22:09:22
Maybe Farke reads this site after all:


"This young team needs your support. Choose to be a believer, because it feels much better than to be a doubter and a moaner"

19 Apr 2024 22:39:18
The Leeds United supporters at ER for Blackburn match were palpably nervous

But losing points to Coventry, Watford, Sunderland does that.

19 Apr 2024 22:48:53
Alf Not according to the font of all knowledge Brighty.

19 Apr 2024 22:56:35
Also, young? If it was young, MJ would start and the crocked aging deer 🦌 on the bench. Want moaning and doubting to 🛑? Play MJ from the start. Furthermore, don't take off the Bulgarian (the one I do like) until the game is won and done.

20 Apr 2024 01:10:58
George I thought you and Brighty were besties 😆

As for this Leeds team being a young team. its not really that young.

DOL dream team " Oleary babes " far younger for starters.

20 Apr 2024 04:46:15
Alf Perhaps a certain potentially imbibing industrial drain cleaner poster keeps him updated.

20 Apr 2024 05:08:56
Sorry George, but you will never know that information. Besides I don’t think I want to share my opinion on threads anymore that are monopolized mainly by a couple of wums, whose opinions of Leeds United football club are somewhat dubious. in this present day.
You can get Farked!

20 Apr 2024 07:30:22
George (and others similarly afflicted) , will you ever be able to resist the itch of school playground name calling? - it’s not funny and it’s not clever, even if combined with what you seem to consider ‘clever’ wordplay. This site would be all the better if you could - and more folk might stick around/ contribute.

20 Apr 2024 07:50:07
Baz - Farkes‘s Leeds is the 5th youngest Leeds team ever. 22.4 years behind Bielsa (18/ 19 also 22.4) and three Revie teams (youngest being 22.2 in 66/ 67) .

DOL’s youngest team was 23.0 in 00/ 01 ranking 16th. All according to Transfermarkt.

20 Apr 2024 08:51:15
Well said OP and Cluey.
George’s immature, playground jibes and PP attempts at intelligence are as effective as an ashtray on a motorbike. The bosom buddies need a “by the hour” hotel room to thrash out their frustrations.
What was once a daily part of my morning coffee routine is now more painful than a trip to IKEA with a very indecisive ex wife and two toddlers!
It’s amazing how it only takes two ants to make yer butt very irritatingly itchy.

20 Apr 2024 08:52:55
Great quote there too Alf!

19 Apr 2024 21:06:42
Not sure why but I'm extremely confident for Mondays game.
This will be our turning point.
Had my largest bet on Leeds today for many a year as I hate to jinx it.
But as I say I've got a feeling that Monday night is going to be a good good night.

19 Apr 2024 22:04:11
The Beatles and Black eyed peas songs, hope your bet brings you much coin and celebration Cork.

19 Apr 2024 22:13:57
Oh gawd that's a Corky jinx 😳. Boro win incoming

Nah just joshing

Paddy Power

Boro 14/ 5
Draw. 3/ 1
Leeds 3/ 4! . mean odds

Didn't you have a monkey ( £500 bet ) last season Corkster?

Brave man to bet large on Leeds to win, to win away, and on this form.

19 Apr 2024 23:48:01
Like I say Baz I’ve got a feeling. And yes I’ve been known to bet very occasionally with my heart and not my head.
But not this time!

20 Apr 2024 01:14:14
Well blooming hope you are right Corky and Leeds United defeat the Boro.

19 Apr 2024 14:08:44
Easier to get a golden ticket Wonka bar tgan a Leeds ticket. Logged in at 1pm, 27000 in the queue.

19 Apr 2024 15:30:53
I was slightly ahead of you in the queue.
Where did all of these extra supporters spring from 🤔🤔.

19 Apr 2024 15:56:17
I used to get away tickets all the time too, but now you have have attended 22 away games, which it's impossible to get tickets for because you can't attend an away game. It's getting worse, been a member since it started, left for 1 year so didn't do 10 consecutive years, so not entitled to priority membership, but all the years before that don't count.
Indeed, where have they all come from.

19 Apr 2024 15:56:37
Did you get one Leroy?

19 Apr 2024 16:13:58
This is just one of several reasons why stadium 🏟️ expansion a must. Said at the time Publicity Pete ought to have used the funds he had at his disposal into the ground so we'd have a better infrastructure moving forward. Would have meant a lack of quality players in the noughties and probably going into League One but we did that anyway!
#dearthofstrategicvision.

19 Apr 2024 17:35:37
Unfortunately, I missed out Dougie
I'll try via the ballot over the weekend
How about you.

19 Apr 2024 19:12:22
I didn’t get one with priority membership and.

19 Apr 2024 22:10:54
No good 51, ballot for me too.

20 Apr 2024 00:11:41
I have seen numerous posts about the difficulties you guys experience in getting tickets.

Is there some way (even at a ludicrous cost) a foreigner like myself can get to see a game at Elland Road when I am able to visit the UK?

Or can I kiss that dream goodbye.

20 Apr 2024 06:35:36
You still get them jungle, sports travel agents do premium match day tickets, but you will pay big money

There is a company in Ireland, friend of mine uses when he's comes over ( Champions travel) I think they called he always gets ticket.

20 Apr 2024 07:50:01
Also hospitality is a given, there are various ones to choose from.

20 Apr 2024 08:45:43
Thanks guys, that's good to know.

I don't care about the cost, its a once in a lifetime thing for me.

19 Apr 2024 13:46:50
Conor Roberts out for the season. 🥴😔.

19 Apr 2024 14:27:49
We know how to buy loan and injure them .
Gray takes over. So kam and Gruev mid.
Prob same old up front. Zzz.
We had our chance to recruit but didn’t.
We are Leeds. But until our league position resembles Leeds we are old news.
It’s good we have a chance to experience new owners and manager this season.
Let’s see how smart they are for season 2.

19 Apr 2024 17:36:39
I think Connor Roberts got his injury during the International games for Wales.

19 Apr 2024 18:42:06
Yes I think it was Wales first game where Robert’s was injured. The international break was a bad blow for us, but we weren’t the only ones, I think Leicester are struggling with a few injuries to key players including Vardy, Dewsbury-Hall and Pereira.
Lucky Ipswich have largely been injury free all this season, a part of the reason I’m sure why they have gone well above most people’s expectations.

Although Anthony hasn’t played much he and Rodon have both been fit and injury free this season for us.

19 Apr 2024 21:09:23
Thank f**k for Rodon being injury free!

19 Apr 2024 03:51:01
For me, we need a CMF, striker. Guess it all depends which league we are playing in. If we get promoted i'd go for one of the following forwards, Batsyui, Bereton diaz, Fofana or maybe scmodics.

19 Apr 2024 13:27:43
Defo a CMF and striker regardless of league we are in.

18 Apr 2024 15:43:39
Whatever league we are in next year a change of personnel is called for in some positions. One of these, possibly. is striker? Obviously Plan A would be to go out and buy the best we can afford however may I suggest a Plan B?
If there is real potential in Joseph then can we purchase a stop gap striker, to bring Joseph on whilst mentoring the young lad. There are a few strikers who have proved their worth in the past and still hold a credible threat up front. Danny Ings, Memphis Depay and Calum Wilson are just a few whose contracts are up for renewal next year and due to their age will be easily affordable.

18 Apr 2024 16:18:45
Definitely a quick natural goalscoring striker and a genuine CAM needed

We would have been Champions this season with them.

18 Apr 2024 16:33:30
We go up

Try Smozdics, really like him
His goal tally is off the scale for a mid, he makes Paddy look like a goalkeeper 😂.

18 Apr 2024 16:53:17
Baz looking at it Midfield is a definite problem next year, but in a good way!
Trying to fit Amps, Gruev, Gray, Kamara and (Crew) into 2 places?
Most managers would like that headache.

18 Apr 2024 17:06:48
I hear you Leo . they are all good ( ish) players for top 4 Champo definitely. EPL maybe.

but CMs should be scoring a few goals creating quite a lot of goals.

18 Apr 2024 17:09:15
Whilst I agree, in principle, Chris Szmodics stats other than this year are not amazing however while we are on the subject of raiding Blackburn, Tyrhise Dolan looked usefull should we need a winger.

18 Apr 2024 17:48:49
If we are still marooned in the Championship next season, I'd take both Blackburn players (Summerville and Rutter replacements)

18 Apr 2024 21:19:56
Right here, right now

Smozdics the dogs Niagara's

Surely we would show an interest in a position we were desperate to fill

I was bigging him up early doors this season Leo, seen him last and he caught my eye massively

All speculative I know.

18 Apr 2024 21:49:06
Chris would he genuinely be good enough in EPL.

That Coventry CAM player who was good in Champo who Blades bought last summer isn't pulling up trees in EPL.

19 Apr 2024 07:01:50
Fact of the matter is we didn't have a great window at the start of the year due to the mess the club was in and therefore didn't get the players DF really wanted, including a natubal CAM and a striker. We only moved for Piroe when our other targets fell through. I think we would look to rectify that for next season.

19 Apr 2024 07:43:56
Maybe not Baz, but 30 onion bag bulgers says he's got to be on radar, he definitely not a Bburn next season

I watched him v Belgium for RoI few weeks back also

He was well able to hold his own,
He's been class this season.

19 Apr 2024 13:28:11
Fair enough Chris 👌.

19 Apr 2024 19:10:09
Subbing some in the last 10 minutes of the game is what you do when your winning to waste time not when your losing Happy to criticise DF what ever others say!

18 Apr 2024 12:38:57
Fake madness, as some posters described him, justified in his actions for subbing Willy against Blackburn. Gnonto was still not fully fit and Farke didn’t want to risk him any longer than he already did.
Don’t be so quick to trash our coaches decisions when we don’t know the reasons behind it.
Gnonto’s impact on these last three games could decide whether we get automatic promotion or not!

18 Apr 2024 13:58:34
I agree op
But just want him to get it right. No fluffy ups.
Choose the right players for each game.
3 left.
Means.
No Bambi.
Gnonto before Dj.
Roberts before gray.
Firpo before byram.
Field in form uninjured players.
It’s our last chance.

18 Apr 2024 15:00:43
The Blackburn defeat on Farke.

1.Primarily taking off Gruev leaving Leeds nonsensicaly with no CDM at nil. nil. the Blackburn goal does NOT happen otherwise.

This is NOT just my opinion but many Leeds United content creators opinions Connor McGillgan, Kagey TV etc

2.Balderdash on Gnonto just an excuse. The guy was full of running and looked well peeved to be coming off

3.CR coming off less disastrous than IG in particular. but questionable too.

18 Apr 2024 17:56:53
Totally what Baz says. Ignore the flannel from LUMP.

18 Apr 2024 18:48:05
You don’t know your talking about hindsighters,
Your insults are literally water gliding off a ducks back, so glad I’m not a WUM.

18 Apr 2024 19:09:48
No idea what / who “LUMP flannel” is supposed to be referencing, but I suspect it’s disparaging. Anyhow I agree with your post Aus. My sentiments are the same.

Good points OP. There’s only two reasons Farke did what he did.

1) he knows all of the information about the status of the players
2) he reads these pages and did it to wind up Baz and George.

Pretty sure it’s the first reason.

18 Apr 2024 19:31:36
Ani
Flannel sounds pretty apt actually

Keeping on the bathroom analogies . these " dodgy excuses " on here are getting more slippery than a bar of Lux soap 🧼 🙄.

18 Apr 2024 19:46:37
My opinions above are also the same opinions of renowned Leeds United content creators


But of course according to you therefore" they don't know what they are talking about either "and are WUMs.

Jeez keep it real OP.

18 Apr 2024 20:08:57
Whatever Baz, let’s just agree that we disagree with pretty much everything you and I post.
There’s no surprises in that.
Have an erroneously eroding evening.
Had enough of these crap posts, watching the Liverpool game.

18 Apr 2024 20:45:55
Baz "Keep it real"? His job is to perform the opposite.

18 Apr 2024 21:01:11
Ani Not disparaging, merely factual.

18 Apr 2024 21:17:36
George…what the hell does it mean?

18 Apr 2024 21:42:25
George and Ani I am guessing 🤔 ' LUMP'
might mean

Leeds United Media Propoganda

Or something

Alternatively

Let Us Make Peace ✌️ . maybe.

18 Apr 2024 22:06:28
💯👍. 🗑️go. Full 🏠 Brother Baz. 😃.

19 Apr 2024 08:06:48
Someone liking his own posts yet again!? 🥴😲
And now Farke is pretty much just a liar? It gets funnier with every post now!

19 Apr 2024 13:29:05
Bright no it seems other posters like George's posts. not that ' likes 'even important nest pas?

don't know why you keep posting this truly lame comment Bright for about 7th time now in less than a year 🙄.

19 Apr 2024 13:53:00
Hmmmmm. 🥴🤔🤔
Counting everything too now fella?

19 Apr 2024 13:54:26
And no one yet knows what LUMP even stands for?

19 Apr 2024 14:22:40
Guesstimate.

19 Apr 2024 16:40:18
Don’t waste your time with them pair of UmpaLUMPa’s
Brighty. I’d rather give myself an enema flush with caustic soda before taking their posts and likes seriously.
Moving on.

19 Apr 2024 16:53:09
Sounds like you already have had an enema flush 😳 with caustic soda grumpy OP lol 😆.

19 Apr 2024 17:00:05
Would that medicinal flushing event take place at Elland Road, not on a matchday but during regular office hours with the soda being purchased locally in the LS11 area by chance?

19 Apr 2024 17:22:55
Lol OP!
The best, most logical, irrefutable posts do get likes, of course. Not normally do interested. That is why these jump out as utterly laughable sadness! 🤣🤣🤣.

19 Apr 2024 17:43:04
Bitter Brighty too lol.

19 Apr 2024 17:45:33
Baz This is why he only gives half his name. It's really Pessimist Optimist Optimist Pessimist. 🤣.

19 Apr 2024 17:52:12
George Lmao 🤣 😂 😆.

19 Apr 2024 21:09:21
Bitter? For what?
I’m not so sad as to need verification or recognition of anything I say or do, here, or anywhere for that matter. Tho clearly, with the thumbs up increasing beyond poster numbers, the small man is at it again! 🤣🤣🤣.

19 Apr 2024 22:07:17
Why mention" likes" ( and often ) then Bright. you are the ONLY one that does lol 😆

I would have thought as a guesstimate there are 80 plus registered people on this forum some post comments others don't)

19 Apr 2024 22:13:48
It would be odd indeed if a 2 times Championship winning manager knew more than a handful of keyboard warriors.

19 Apr 2024 22:29:02
That was SIX years ago Cuppa . different circumstances, different club etc etc

This time last season DF was getting the ole tin tack after just one season in tne Fatherland. to be far more current up to date fella!

A manager is only as good as his previous match and by general consensus of most of the Leeds United content creators and others DF forked up the Blackburn match with his subs ; lost Leeds the match!

But one doesn't expect you to put your bias to one side and be rational about it Alfie lad! Definitely not. 🤔🤣.

20 Apr 2024 07:08:05
So going on a 15 game run of no losses and two of them being draws in the championship isn’t good in your estimation Baz?
Even Pep doesn’t win every game!
Your expectations are completely and utterly delusional, given the fact also Farke is a new coach to the club with some very talented but also very young inexperienced players.
Leeds United do not need non believing fans.
