Leeds banter 3

22 Apr 2024 22:30:52
Notts Forest a total disgrace. Unbelievable talk from them. Brian Clough would be ashamed.

22 Apr 2024 22:56:40
I get Florists frustrations though . Wolves also have had it very bad . but certain teams never get rough end of "decisions "

How much trust exists in integrity, reliability in football authorities and officials?

And where is the accountability ( suspension of 'inept' ( or other dubious matters) of refs and VAR officials .?

23 Apr 2024 04:26:15
Cork Ashley "Young" didn't exactly cover himself in glory with his provocative social media post referencing a song by Justin Timberlake.

23 Apr 2024 07:44:14
As a leeds fan I find it hard to feel sympathy for any team moaning about refs even if they are right.

For me that is like Douglas barder feeling sorry for a bloke with a sore ankle.

23 Apr 2024 10:31:36
How short sighted.

23 Apr 2024 11:27:35
Leeds have been on the end of a few dodgy decisions this year. A couple of hand balls not given etc. Though we did have a clear offside goal given last night so that was a little bit back. But it the inconsistencies that var was supposed to clear up that still keep popping up.

Coventry were given a penalty for handball at the weekend for a similar one to the forest shout. But I don't know why and I think they won't either. I just don't think var adds anything to the game in its current state.

23 Apr 2024 17:15:43
They get it wrong with VAR and they get it wrong without it. Makes it a waste of time and money to me.

22 Apr 2024 19:18:36
There seem to be a lot of press reports dating back to 2012 and 2013 labelling Ashley Young a cheat. Even Alex Ferguson criticised him for it apparently!

22 Apr 2024 11:24:58
I'm neither an optimist or pessimist just call it as I see it. Based on recent form and current standings can't see leeds doing it this time.

22 Apr 2024 13:50:45
How’s Ipswich recent form? Or Southampton last game or Leicester pre Brom.
It’s rsp time.

22 Apr 2024 08:35:29
Is it best for a Leicester win v Southampton now? Put them pretty much out the race.
Win ours? And hope league 1 Ipswich mess up.

22 Apr 2024 10:41:03
makes sense to me Aus, Leicester up and we sneak past the tractor boys does it for me.

22 Apr 2024 10:44:15
I've had the same thought on this one. Leicester win will mean only one automatic place left for 2 teams but a Southampton win potentially makes it 4 teams for 2 places. i'd potentially want a draw? Saying that, whatever happens we need to take at least 7-9 points from last 3 games. But we all know that with Leeds, it's easier said than done. Hopefully we can start with 3 points tonight 🤞🤞🤞.

22 Apr 2024 14:08:12
All we can do is win our three remaining games and hope that others mess it up. Since the international break, things have no longer been in our own hands.

There's still hope though guys - as you say Mighty, let's grab three points tonight:)

22 Apr 2024 14:08:53
Southampton win for me. If Southampton finish above us to take an auto place, then I’d be surprised if Leicester and Ipswich aren’t also above us.

For me we have to win our matches (so Southampton don’t matter) , so want Leicester catchable with Ipswich, if either then slip up.

22 Apr 2024 22:59:33
After tonight’s result, a Southampton win would be good for us I think as we will have 2 spots to go for instead of 1. Leicester are nervous, Leeds maybe over the nervousness after that win and then there’s non stop and totally unpredictable Ipswich Town. If we beat QPR Southampton can’t touch us, so that’s why I would like them to beat Leicester City. I think Hull City will turn the tractor boys over, and then my friends it will be squeaky bum time! 🤞🤞.

22 Apr 2024 23:17:05
Southampton win for me…keeps both auto places open.

23 Apr 2024 02:24:44
A ⚜️⚜️ victory could see 🙈 a complete stalling of the 🦊🦊. Their remaining fixtures not exactly straightforward.

23 Apr 2024 10:33:25
The more pressure Leicester have the better. hopefully they lose or at least only draw tonight.

22 Apr 2024 00:06:32
Don't understand why the optimists bother to criticize every pessimist post and Also don't understand why pessimists feel compelled to criticize every optimistic post.

Also don't get why we have to insult each other.

Also don't understand why posters quit or threaten to quit posting because they don't like what they read.

I don't give a rats arse what anyone else posts or says, all are entitled to opinion.

Grow up guys and stop throwing your toys out the pram!

We will either get promoted or we won't. We will still all be Leeds next season.

22 Apr 2024 03:24:08
May I remind you of the word ‘Verbose’ 1970! practice what you preach comes to mind. There are quite a few on here that like to undermine and ridicule certain posters, it’s like a game to them, I don’t know why they do it, maybe they are bored, who knows, but it’s boring, not getting boring, just plain boring! MG said it in an earlier post about just posting now and again because of the usual content of crap being repetitive and boring. Maybe we should have 2 Leeds Banter sites, one for optimists and one for pessimists, then those that want to moan and put our team down constantly can and those that have the rose tinted glasses can praise and discuss our fortunes properly. MOT chaps 🙃.

22 Apr 2024 10:14:35
Woody mate it’s not putting the club down they are referring to what they see it’s there options which as you know you can’t have it’s equally the same those post that the team is doing well when Clearly they are not its Constantly post on here Surely being a fan, you can say what you feel is right you don’t have to agree with it and if you don’t like it don’t answer it and Another thing all these posters that don't post for months and months then say they’ve got fed up with the site so they have stopped then they return still as fed up as when they left and I’m not referring to your good self Equally those that don’t like it find another site and join that onwards and upwards, mate.

22 Apr 2024 12:45:33
To some degree I see what you’re saying Whiteman but where does an opinion then become a reason for somebody to lambast it mate? I understand and respect all opinions whether we are doing well or we are not, but when it goes beyond that and becomes boringly the same crap from the same posters then it’s bordering on just being annoying. Just so you know my opinion is that Leeds will win tonight 3-0 and we will go up as second place. Just my opinion MOT 👍👍.

22 Apr 2024 13:35:13
Woody I do hope so mate. With you all the way mate.

22 Apr 2024 13:48:05
Is whiteman survivor? Or whatever his name was.

22 Apr 2024 15:52:50
🪵y I criticize the manager (fair game) and in reply one poster proclaims his preference to ingest commercial drainage unblocking cleaner.

22 Apr 2024 17:37:40
It is preferable to many tho.

22 Apr 2024 17:42:44
George, I like your posts especially the informative ones, you have good opinions and your knowledge of Leeds is amazing, I’m not bothered about criticism of the manager or players because that’s what a site like this is for, opinions matter and are good to throw around, it’s just the other crap that gets boring mate, the little digs and point scoring that gets a tad tedious. It’s also really repetitive, if you read some posts and go back in the pages on here you will see how many times the same crap gets repeated, it’s boring mate. I just want to read about, Leeds, the team we put out, the good bits and bad bits, but not the constant DF is crap, DF needs to go and the constant ridicule of certain other posters opinions mate. This is a fantastic time to be a Leeds fan, we are up there, in with a chance of going up automatically, if not we have the play offs and a possible Wembley appearance! What’s not to get excited about? Super Leeds 👍👍.

22 Apr 2024 22:38:57
What is poor about this site presently is not the opposing opinions or pessimism and optimism, it’s the lack of respect for alternative opinions and the ridicule that some posters face for sharing their opinions. That’s what has to change.

{Ed025's Note - i have been telling you that ani, its all about respect and tolerance mate and yes it has to change..

22 Apr 2024 23:05:45
You know what Ani, I was on the live chat tonight with, Baz, Whitey, Alf, and a few others and it was really good. Others opinions and views were respected, answered and it was all in good humour. It was enjoyable so it shows that being civilised between us all is possible. Baz made some bloody good points and with others including Alf, 1970 and Whiteman coming up with points it all made for good reading, nice one lads I really enjoyed it tonight. 👍.

23 Apr 2024 00:26:48
Indeed Woody
it was another awesome enjoyable Live match chat with you Woody, Alf, Whitey, Prime, 2 sheds etc .

Cheers Woody.

21 Apr 2024 23:07:49
A must win if not all 3 of them but have a feeling ipswich will faulter, they've 2 tough away games, Hull and coventry and can see dropped points.

22 Apr 2024 13:59:34
Ipswich also have hudds who may still be fighting relegation. They'll definitely lose points somewhere.

21 Apr 2024 18:44:00
At the beginning of the season I would have bet on Leicester and Southampton going up automatically, A few games ago I would have said Ipswich and Southampton. Now Leicester and Ipswich. Can't see Leeds doing it automatically and play-offs don't suit us. Its like a BBC weather forecast - one of their own looking out of the window and telling us what its doing. Every week the scenario changes with EFL. One thing that doesn't we don't convert many chances so when we are not making a dozen chances a game we don't score. ERGO we probably won't make it this season given our current creativity in the final third.

21 Apr 2024 20:15:17
You been hanging out with Baz Hess, love the positivity.

21 Apr 2024 20:35:49
3 cup finals to go.
Anything can happen between now and the beginning of May
I still think Leeds can get the job done.

21 Apr 2024 20:46:18
Spot on Leeroy.

21 Apr 2024 21:15:00
Nah Dougie pal. not at all in fact

Hess for instance incongruously does NOT rate my main man DJ

DJ 2nd top scorer for Leeds United

And without whom Leeds United would not even be in top6.

21 Apr 2024 21:50:58
You a James fan Baz? I never would have guessed!
Change the effing record!

21 Apr 2024 22:23:27
Corky DJ may win yer some money tomorrow . you ' ll be singing his praises if he does.

22 Apr 2024 18:00:39
Like I said months ago Bazinald
Meep meep wouldn't lace Smozdics boots this season 😂.

23 Apr 2024 00:31:54
Szomidics having a great season Chrissy but as he isn't our player its all a bit moot fella .

Perhaps if we had tried to sign Szomidics instead of JP

Anyways facts are DJ has had a very good season. end of

Meep meep.

23 Apr 2024 07:45:00
Talking of DJ, I thought he was taking the mick holding his ribs after that foul, but he did appear injured at full time. Anybody know anything?
That was a world class challenge on him last night that stopped him getting his shot away in the box to seal it, tho he did dither too long. We will need him these next two games, but Willy is a better all round player imo.

21 Apr 2024 14:22:51
Sheffield Wednesday can score 3 against Blackburn - at Blackburn! - but.

21 Apr 2024 15:13:41
Funny old game. Styles of play make matches.

21 Apr 2024 15:35:30
Sheff Weds aren’t Blackburn’s cup final tho!

21 Apr 2024 21:15:47
Aha that old chestnut excuse Bright.

22 Apr 2024 08:18:32
Sunderland and Blackburn both conceded 5 goals in the game prior to playing us .

22 Apr 2024 10:37:00
One weekend Ainsley Pears makes a couple of decent saves to deny Leeds, but the following weekend he gifts Sheff Wednesday 2 valuable goals
Unbelievable Jeff.

22 Apr 2024 17:39:37
I’m sure it’s a chestnut you’ve rolled around a few times too Bazinald!?

21 Apr 2024 07:39:29
{Ed's Note - Thestigno1 has posted a new article entitled, Where are Glasgow Rangers Headed?

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! :-)
