21 Apr 2024 05:23:19
As west Brom proved, it's not just us that miss. Take a look at Southampton and even Arsenals stats. Looks like it's infectious.

21 Apr 2024 11:04:32
Every side misses chances, like you say Aus. definitely not just us. Even the best strikers miss what look like simple chances; look at Ronny Rosenthal! 🥴🤔🤦🏼🤣.

21 Apr 2024 12:47:49
and Patrick Bamford?

21 Apr 2024 19:44:20
Bamford is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.

Haven't a clue what that means but it doesn't sound complimentary and if it was good enough for Winston Churchill it's good enough for me :-)

21 Apr 2024 21:27:23
2 sheds I do enjoy your Churchill and Sir Alf Ramsey posts/ quotes

Who is next? Wellington, Henry 5th, Nelson?


As for Bamford not sure its a riddle nor an enigma .

its a case of a player with talent

but not a razor sharp proflic goalscorer. and some self confidence/ self belief issues in his ability.

21 Apr 2024 21:57:14
2 Sheds, I’ve got a bottle of Pol Roger champagne which was Churchill's favorite, sadly it’s not a 1928 which was his favorite but I’ll be popping that cork hopefully in celebration of our promotion.
Never, Never, Never give up!

22 Apr 2024 14:58:15
Henry 5th Baz? Excellent choice mate!

"Once more unto the breach, dear friends (and Leeds fans) , once more, "

It epitomizes the inspiring leadership and unwavering determination of King Henry (and to a much, much lesser extent)
Daniel Farke.

Ok cut me some slack with that comparison I'm getting quite giddy here at the thought of promotion.
with that.

With these powerful words, he rallies his troops to face the formidable challenge ahead.

22 Apr 2024 15:01:24
OP

Excellent choice of champers mate, bottoms up! :-)

20 Apr 2024 16:40:26
I am convinced that DF brings his own media to his press conferences. When the team is winning, they all are happy like a Pig in muck, but when he is making major mistakes and can't buy a point they never ask tough questions for the decisions he has been making. Always the same old same old every press conference.

20 Apr 2024 18:46:40
True Hooksie.

20 Apr 2024 18:49:07
Bermuda you got that wrong it’s the same old DF nothing changes said the when he was at Norwich 😀.

21 Apr 2024 05:08:47
Daniel Farke deja vu post match conference after a possible Boro loss might be something like this :

1) " Sometimes tiny little moments can make a big difference "

2) " Apart from the goals I don't remember Illian Meslier making a single save "

3) " Sadly there is no VAR in Champo "

4) (this is a common fave) : " We needed to be sharper and quicker"

5) " Every mistake was punished "

6) " I pinky promised the boys that on Tuesday we FINALLY gonner start working on set pieces "

7) "20 year old Matteo Joseph is too young to start matches ( no one mention Archie Gray is 17 ) "

Vielen danke schon.

21 Apr 2024 07:15:27
Baz you got that spot on number 7 is a classic. 😂😂😂😂.

21 Apr 2024 08:30:01
Yes, because every single manager of every single club does not spew out the same lines week after week. It’s clearly only DF who has had lengthy training in managing the media, and sticks to message tracking principles……. 🥴🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼.
You can’t even make this cack up! #keepinitrealish #whatisrealanyway.

21 Apr 2024 10:13:31
This constant bashing of the manager is becoming pathetic.
Getting really sick over almost every thread starting with criticism of DF, players, transfer policy etc.
Not visiting the forum as much nowadays, losing its appeal unfortunately.
Remember where we are in the league, what an incredible season we are having and could have after the turmoil at the beginning, and where many critical posters predictions of where we will finish were. I might be wrong but I think Leeds have exceeded them.

21 Apr 2024 10:33:27
here here MG. I agree we are 3rd in the league and can still go up automatically, if not we potentially have 4 more nail biting games to still go up, but the pessamistic will still moan. Let's just see where the rollercoaster stops and then disect it. MOT and let strap ourselves in for the ride, wherever it takes us, and you never know if we don't go up I might be able to get a ticket for a game😉.

21 Apr 2024 11:02:39
Mid General, Stop using the excuse of look where we were at the start of the season! You sound just like DF.

21 Apr 2024 11:06:09
Spot on MG and Dougie. “Agendas will agend! ”……. 🤔.

21 Apr 2024 11:29:22
Start of season baloney indeed.

21 Apr 2024 11:34:08
Hopefully Bright DF will get Leeds over line

but bottom line anything less than promotion is neither a " success " nor " incredible "

5 games ago Leeds were top and had autos in their own hands .

21 Apr 2024 14:40:07
Fish bowl baz.
Fish bowl baz.
Fish eeerrrrr
What did I say previously?
What did I s.

21 Apr 2024 15:24:22
Prefer you put lamb on the bbq Aus.

21 Apr 2024 17:58:59
🇧🇲 🤡, not sure I used the excuse ‘look at where we were at the start of the season’, I think I said we had turmoil (which only a clown would deny) last summer, which makes the achievement so far, a valiant effort.

If I sound like DF, I will take that, although I think you were using it as an insult 🤣 Never tell me to ‘stop’ voicing my opinion, that is what this site is for, or do think it’s just a moaning soundboard?

Thankfully your posts are very seldom as they add no value to most discussions. I think you even said recently that Archie only got a game as his surname is Gray! WoW, that’s got to win some kind of award at the end of the season.

21 Apr 2024 19:35:25
Lol MG! 👏🏻🤜🏼🤛🏻.

21 Apr 2024 20:31:45
Bermuda right again mate, the Truth always comes back to bite you and some just can’t take it, as you can see 🤣.

21 Apr 2024 23:31:31
Mid General, RELAX my boy. It's not that serious. We all love Leeds!

20 Apr 2024 14:45:59
Not exactly a riveting set of fixtures in EPL today.

20 Apr 2024 14:06:15
I know we miss a few sitters, but West Brom today, unbelievable.

20 Apr 2024 11:45:07
Aus - I'm happy to step up as a fool! If foxes win today they go up. Baggies are more or less already in playoffs - they don't need the 3 points as bad as foxes

Could also do with canary loss and tiger win to keep the hungry for playoffs when tractor boys visit.

Somehow, and I am not sure we can, we need to get destiny back in our own hands!

20 Apr 2024 13:20:55
We get destiny back in our hands by winning our last three games and still going to go Ipswich losing them.
I have no idea what’s going to happen but it better happen now cause top 2 got bankers last game. Imo.

20 Apr 2024 13:58:42
Leicester winning.

It feels like Leeds may have to win all remaining 3.

Even then it might not be enough.

Leeds were top 5 games ago with auto destiny in their own hands.

20 Apr 2024 13:59:29
2 up now.

20 Apr 2024 14:04:55
Agree with ast two bankers, foxes 2-0 right now and out of our reach.

20 Apr 2024 14:44:06
Baz Even if win all 3 won't be enough. Win 3, finish 4th.

20 Apr 2024 14:52:05
Think that’s a mathematical impossibility Georgie.

20 Apr 2024 14:58:29
Hopefully 3 wins will be enough George. but if not that will mean League 1 Ipswich would have finished above Leeds United.

20 Apr 2024 15:00:35
You are right 1970 if Leeds win all 3 they can't finish 4th.

20 Apr 2024 15:04:50
We will win the playoffs! DF will be forced to start M Joseph and the youngster will become a Hero!

20 Apr 2024 17:08:34
Always cared for Cardiff.

20 Apr 2024 08:40:33
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.

20 Apr 2024 11:26:32
I’d back us.

21 Apr 2024 00:49:13
Nailed that one.

20 Apr 2024 07:39:28
{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.

20 Apr 2024 09:57:03
With you all the way Jungle:) )

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!

20 Apr 2024 09:15:41
Come on Brockley, don't let facts get in the way of Baz's verbal diarrhoea. That's not fair!

20 Apr 2024 14:10:26
22.2, 22.4, 23 so all very similar indeed in average age

So this DF ( without Coops ) doesn't have older players in its 30s to bring up its average age

ok fine.

But it doesn't have a plethora of teens in it either just AG and WG

( unlike other Leeds teams in history with 4 or 5 teens in team )

20 Apr 2024 14:12:54
The Leeds United content creator Kagey TV made an interesting point how about DF concentrate on getting his team winning matches and giving tne Leeds fans in the grounds something to cheer about.

20 Apr 2024 17:58:51
You got to admire (not) Baz and his outlandish “expert” claims.

…. DOL’s team was “far younger” and once that factoid debunked with facts, it becomes “similar age. ” even though they were older, rendering the original claim totally wrong. Does Baz say “I was wrong, ”…. nah, changes the metric to the number of teenagers.

Classic!

20 Apr 2024 18:54:17
Never once claimed I was an expert Ani just giving one's justified factual criticisms ( which other content creators also held ) on relegation, Ipswich have NOT gone etc etc

0.8 of a year is hardly " debunked "

20 Apr 2024 19:44:50
…. hardly right either Baz!

I may have said Ipswich were gone from auto promotion (time will tell) , but I only wrote off Ipswich once; you’ve been writing off your own team all season!

20 Apr 2024 20:21:09
No Ani .1st place Ipswich have been proving you wrong EVERY week.

As for Leeds United I predicted Leeds finish 6th in playoffs; Leeds currently are indeed in playoffs.

Some people prefer realism such as I . others prefer happy clapping fantasy and excuses 🤨

It is what it is ole chap. ☺.

20 Apr 2024 20:27:00
. and ' time will tell ' Ani? Ani. jeez. give head shake

. you said that 6 months half a season ago.

Only 3 matches left . Ipswich top

Whatever happens in these final 3 matches . Ipswich most definitively had never gone.

20 Apr 2024 21:30:42
Pretty damned sure that Leicester are top, no?

20 Apr 2024 23:23:29
Indeed Bright…. another example of Baz realism, that is what the rest of us call nearly real.

21 Apr 2024 04:41:01
Yep Ipswich now in 2nd . and have " gone " Ani 🤣.

21 Apr 2024 11:10:29
If we can win our next two, I believe we will be ahead of Ipswich before they play, by 4 points. Big pressure for them vs Hull and Cov. Think that’s right, without checking anyway?

21 Apr 2024 11:43:41
All true Bright re putting pressure on Ipswich.6 points a must. anything less won't he pressure for Ipswich nor enough for Leeds.
