Oh well. That's put paid to us taking advantage of the extra champs league spot next year.
18 Apr 2024 11:30:22
Still in with a shout for a Championship spot next year though.
18 Apr 2024 15:02:10
Gest you not Cuppa . likely scenario.
19 Apr 2024 07:04:20
I would be happy enough with that. Becoming increasingly disenchanted with the EPL.
17 Apr 2024 22:58:49
I think Darlow is assured of his place on the bench for the remaining fixtures.
18 Apr 2024 11:30:50
Possibly although no injuries so I hear.
18 Apr 2024 13:49:08
Will KK go back to be prosecuted tho?
18 Apr 2024 17:58:47
Maybe he was trying to enact some symbolism to match the end of our season.
19 Apr 2024 07:04:52
Prosecution would probably take time imo.
17 Apr 2024 22:28:40
Both Bam and Piroe have missed sitters in last couple of games. Away from the cauldron of what was" fortress";Elland Road I would be tempted to start the young uns up front. Piroe blanked when right through and Bam couldn't even get his head on the ball instead of his shoulder when basically unmarked in the 6 yd box. Those are probably going to prove to be expensive misses. Hansen was proved wrong when he said you can't w8n with kids - let's give the LUFC kids a go.
17 Apr 2024 23:39:23
Likely though just one change by DF ; Bamford in for Piroe.
DF isn't going to start MJ.
Be refreshing to actually indeed score goals from corner/ set piece!
If we be behind at 60 mins bring Cressy on last 30 mins . Amps into midfield. Cressy to score a couple of headers.
Sort it Herr Farke!
18 Apr 2024 11:31:47
On the contrary I think our lack of experienced heads is costing us at this point.
18 Apr 2024 14:15:19
Alf our experienced heads can't even head the bloody ball! DF has no intentions of playing Cresswell and starting Joseph. We have NOT utilized our young talent properly in the past 4 years. Although Archie has played well this season and has proven himself, If his last name wasn't (Gray) he would have never been in DF starting team. I'm not bashing my youngster just stating fact.
18 Apr 2024 15:07:23
Bang on the 💰 money Hooksie.
" Experienced" players are of no use if they are bottlers under pressure like some of the shower that were masquerading as Leeds players last season.
and the likes of Bamford this season
Empty the stadium maybe he will score.
18 Apr 2024 15:08:59
A lot of young players play without fear
Fergie had no qualms filling his team with young players.
19 Apr 2024 07:06:05
Silver foil on offer in Morrisons if you need a new hat Bermuda.
17 Apr 2024 11:51:09
Against Middlesbrough I don’t have a problem with Farke starting Bamford or Piroe, but if we are not in front by h sixty minutes he must give Joseph on.
Overall our problem currently is more to do with confidence, you see that our ball retention and passing is way off our normal game.
I’d also prefer Willy to start as he does posses an extra edge in our attacking flanks.
There no denying that it will be crucial that.
17 Apr 2024 12:23:20
Willy Gnonto AND Daniel James must start. we must WIN . need goals . and players who do score on pitch
Its a MUST WIN . must score gosls
Mes
Roberts
Rodon
Ampadu
Byram
Gruev
Piroe ( radical but he has 12 goals GK has zero )
DJ
Gnonto ( in. the 10 )
Summerville ( or Anthony )
Joseph
If Summerville isn't on it yet AGAIN . hook him off at HT for Anthony.
17 Apr 2024 13:09:52
Willy is currently more of a threat than James. James has been back to his head down no idea best since int break. Def Willy on. Gray for Rutter. Nooooooooo Bamford. Rather play cooper up front 👍.
17 Apr 2024 13:23:42
Gray has been awful Aus past games and has zero goal threat
We need goals.
17 Apr 2024 14:21:16
Yeah. But Rutter has too baz.
I think they both need a rest. I don’t know. So many are tired or out of form.
It’s tough from here.
Not sure what our sub usage is like compared to other 3 but our supposed starting 11 prob reduced to about 4 worthy of a start now.
17 Apr 2024 15:01:28
Our window of opportunity has passed for automatic promotion! BUT, I believe we win the Playoffs.
17 Apr 2024 16:14:18
Never write Leeds United off.
We always do things the hard way and that is where we currently are
Middlesbrough like to attack, which should help our attackers to find space and hopefully score
I live up here and everyone keeps saying they will struggle on Monday without Luke Ayling.
17 Apr 2024 19:40:29
Don't forget Rutter had a serious op during the international break. Its going to be tough to come back from under any circumstances. Hopefully the extended break will help a few reset.
17 Apr 2024 20:26:34
One of my mates had a hernia operation in December and still feels discomfort now
Rutter was straight back into training and then games
Yes he's an athlete, but he's also a human and most likely feeling niggles.
17 Apr 2024 20:33:46
I guess it may have not been feasible to delay Rutter surgery until next month.
17 Apr 2024 22:40:07
Yes I have had hernias and they do take a few months to properly recover from. Obviously Rutter didn't get an NHS special but still. Think the club must have had no choice but to risk it but that situation more than any other has derailed our season.
17 Apr 2024 23:45:56
Blimey Cuppa you have had a lot of injuries for a whipper snapper :
hernias ( plural ) , ACLs, 2 broken legs, spinal injuries. etc etc.
18 Apr 2024 07:11:50
Yes 2 hernias but the first when I was 5. Not really spinal injuries more a bad back - add to that 2 fractured arms and I also had a rare problem with a bone slipping out of place in my left hip for which I still have 2 titanium screws within. That was a 2 year revovery as well which effectively killed off my football 'career'. At least if I get murdered and my body is found years later the identification should be fairly easy. Other than that I think I've been injury free.
18 Apr 2024 11:32:45
Didn't Gray score for us not too long ago?
18 Apr 2024 15:12:18
No Gray has Zero goals for Leeds Cuppa
Sorry to hear of your lengthy injuires.
18 Apr 2024 18:02:34
Alf Sorry to read about your injuries. Don't joke about death. Hopefully you'll be around a long time and to witness 🤍💛💙 EPL and CL titles.

17 Apr 2024 02:50:30
May I suggest a tag team wrestling match with luvvies Alf and Op versus evil twins George and Baz.
Back to school - my dad is bigger than your dad etc.
Saints well and truly in it, think it's better for us if they beat foxes but not sure. To go up auto think we have to win out and that not likely .
17 Apr 2024 05:36:12
1970 so " Stone Cold Steve Austin" Baz.
We have had on here
" Ipswich have gone"; 🤔
" Saints are not in it "🤨
Well 4 teams are in it ; Leeds likely need to win both away matches and then at least draw final match against Saints.
17 Apr 2024 06:48:23
Think Aus should be the manager for the evils while Brighty could be manager for ourselves. Or we could do a triple threat match.
17 Apr 2024 07:18:51
Baz You be 🪨🥶. I'll be the ⚫🦂.
17 Apr 2024 07:48:33
Just like to remind Baz and George that they are not Professional football managers behind their computer keyboards and that they don’t know better with their very conviennent hindsight opinions.
However, they would would know just a little more about coaching than that excuse of a football coach Jesse Marsch.
I think Alf, myself and several other posters need to add some reality to threads as Bazza likes to monopolize pretty much every thread with, it’s my way and my way only. 😉
Power to the people ✊🏻.
{Ed025's Note - do you know what guys i think we need to be a bit nicer to each other, a bit more tolerant and respectful even if you dont agree with someones view, it gets like a bunch of fish wives at times and you are all on the same side here so lets stop the petty bickering and oneupmanship please..
17 Apr 2024 08:25:05
Feel a bit stuck in the middle.
Rejected by Alfs team ( which hurt a lot I might add) and obviously baz and Porgie able to manage themselves.

Ha one can never rely on those Aussies 😆 😆.
17 Apr 2024 09:25:26
Respectfully Ed I think a lot of the posts are a bit tongue in cheek, certainly from my behalf, it’s a bit of a distraction from the will we won’t we get promoted? Which is starting a lot of sphincter twitching amongst us Leeds fans right now.
Aus, if you wanna be in our gang you’ve got to tone down the anti Farke posts! 😉
Yes mate, that’s the deal.
{Ed025's Note - there is nothing wrong with a bit of banter OP in fact i love it, but it can be a fine line at times mate and i just dont want it to turn into a slanging match, but im sure it wont..
17 Apr 2024 09:42:30
Don't mind opposing views Ed, in fact I welcome them but it's sooo boring hearing the same lines trotted out every single thread whose only point is to boast about how great they are, how much they told us so and clearly attempts to boost one's own seemingly fragile ego. Its far easier to be negative about a team than positive because in footie nothing is permanent. For every thread if Baz and George just don't bother to comment, we can all just assume they are right about everything and talk about more interesting things instead.
{Ed025's Note - its easy to just skip past posts you dont agree with alf, i enjoy a debate as much as the next guy but we do have to keep it civil mate..
17 Apr 2024 10:46:31
We have also had on here
"forget Leicester, they can't be caught. "
"Farke totally unproven at this level. "
17 Apr 2024 11:26:00
Agree with OP who usually has a good sense of humour/ banter.
Cuppa one realises you be bitter about DF messing up past 5 games esp Blackburn but no need to repeat/ use tbe ott ' e ' word.
17 Apr 2024 11:29:03
OP Didn't care for your convenient hindsight opinions comment when I know for a fact that prior to our decline I posted and discussed with you the benefit of rotation and resting players after a fixture pile up involving the international break (which wasn't actually a break for 85% of our squad, wasn't it just 6 who remained? ) I cautioned you then directly with a couple of clear posts and advisory and now you tell me I have a hindsight opinion? Hope you're joking but sense you are not.
17 Apr 2024 11:30:36
Ani
line 1 correct.17 points ahead one did not foresèe them choking . still think they will go up in autos
Line 2 false . I said he was " overrated " . unless you be referring to another poster perhaps.
17 Apr 2024 12:05:32
George let’s have right, we can oppose each other’s opinion, it’s fair game, doesn’t matter who is right or wrong it’s just opinions.
We oppose each other’s opinions if we want but then move on.
No need to get upset or make issues about it.
Keep it clean and we’re all good 👍.
17 Apr 2024 12:36:47
My opinion on the rotation issue as you make out George, I feel you could have a point on certain players who came back from their internationals, but I don’t think they were fatigued more disconsolate especially our Welsh contingent who are very important in our squad.
It’s such fine margins In professional football, a slight knock in confidence to a few players can displace the squad leading to a negative performance.
So for me it’s not fatigue the problem but confidence, we don’t have quality replacements for Rodon and Ampadu, who appear to be suffering along with James.
17 Apr 2024 13:13:41
Not sure you have ever posted clearly. Most of the time I take Ed’s advice and ignore your posts. Unless they are short.
17 Apr 2024 13:23:27
OP Why do you conflate? Did I refuse your right to oppose? No. Issue is you've attempted to rewrite the truth by claiming hindsight. Now you say I've got a point with certain players. Make mind up! I was right all along and in advance. So unnecessary. The title was ours.
Sometimes you rest players for a good week, possibly lose 3 or 4 points because of it and then come back with a vengeance. What Farke did was ensure we lost double those amount of points and without the benefit of the rest!
17 Apr 2024 15:12:34
It’s like a plug on here put live and Neutral together it goes bang.

He wasn’t half, Alf! Looked a bit Jimmy Saville / Rolf Harris to me!
18 Apr 2024 07:43:35
Thank you Ed025, wish it was more civil. Think some posters may have left due to the vitriol on the site. We all love Leeds so we should do our best to gat along. Appreciate all the good posts.

17 Apr 2024 02:40:54
The Leicester Southampton game an interesting one.
Is it better Leicester win and more than less finish Southampton off with our better goal difference.
Southampton win and all four in the mix.
Draw?
Prob go for draw I reckon.
Got a sneaky feel Leicester lose v Brom.
Fitting that the closest championship battle ever will go down to last game and unfitting that the current top two have an easy game. Typical.
17 Apr 2024 05:05:41
We had an “easy” game last weekend Aus!
There are no easy games in this League. Ipswich will be playing Huddersfield who could/ will be fighting for their survival?
I would take having to beat Southampton on the last day for promotion now.
17 Apr 2024 05:43:44
I predicted Leeds pick up one point at QPR
Leeds lose against Boro and Saints
Final top 6 from here on in
1st Ipswich Champions

George - because PLAB is a Leeds fan and not a fairweather, Goldilocks fan like some who only 'support' when things are 'just right'.
16 Apr 2024 19:56:42
Well said Alf. I’m more and more convinced he is simply a WUM.
16 Apr 2024 20:54:03
George a WUM? Ridiculous tosh
Saints 3 nil up . just 3 points behind the mighty Farke's Leeds
looks like George has justifield reason to be a tad despondent.
16 Apr 2024 22:10:52
I think George is a bit more than a tad despondent Baz.
Southampton very fortunate to be playing a team with nothing to play for, a victory for them was not a surprise. We still have a superior goal difference over them and Ipswich if this goes to the wire which I think it will.
You can thank Jimmy for that if it comes down to goal difference, the player you want the club to sell!
16 Apr 2024 22:31:36
Thank you DJ too OP . same goal contributions.
16 Apr 2024 22:37:50
Exactly OP. Some peeps have no idea about the context of certain games and how that impacts performance. Saints have been there or thereabouts fornthe majority of the season so no surprise they are up there now. Plus they seem ro have had their rough patch and now in fine form again. Will be a formidable opponent in the final weeks.
16 Apr 2024 23:06:08
Well, all, up, we need Southampton to be in the mix. Their game in hand against Leicester has some real meaning now.
17 Apr 2024 05:46:43
Leeds need to win matches Ani. the Leicester vs Saints match won't help them now.
17 Apr 2024 07:44:19
Of course it will Baz - If Southampton beat Leicester, then it will be one point between us and Leicester on the same games. Of course we have win our games - Like I say, us v Southampton, winner takes all, is fine by me.
