Me and Mrs Integrity are going on our holidays soon. I told her I want to go somewhere that'll give me wood and she said she wants to go somewhere that'll fulfil her dreams and goals. We're off to Burnley for a fortnight stay end of August!

15 Aug 2017 23:36:46
2nd prize, 3 weeks in Burnley!

16 Aug 2017 07:33:12
Which is better than a life time in Wolverhampton

16 Aug 2017 07:57:30
George, stay in Leeds. At least we have a season long bj

15 Aug 2017 21:55:33
Wood can go, now. Thanks big fella but, Gary Madine is probably available and looked every inch what you're not.

15 Aug 2017 21:48:27
Working this evening so never had access to the game. Stats can be misleading but appears Fulham enjoyed lions share of the game. However, this didn't surprise me Fulham established team, I will wait until ten games to properly evaluate how we will do this year. Personally I think Klich will be a very important player for us this year 👍

15 Aug 2017 22:00:36
What makes you say that? I don't know either way with klich, but be interested in to why you're confident in him?

15 Aug 2017 22:21:13
Both teams evenly matched imo, we had a lot of ball without creating a great deal, they hit us on counter attack 2nd half, bit dissapointed with alioski (after the hype) . ekuban up top with wood for last 10 would have been something a bit different, positives being 2 clean sheets on Trot, just feel like we are one key offensive player short.

15 Aug 2017 22:42:14
Me too but was told Felix made some good saves and Shaughnessy had a decent game. Saiz and Alioski played ok. Decent match by all acccounts. Wood lost another one on one. Early days and still to work out best team but still unbeaten so onwards and upwards

16 Aug 2017 00:25:37
IMO Shaughnessy MOM and his tackle on Pizaman was Jansonesque

15 Aug 2017 21:41:12
Did we make a mistake not running of with £20m?

15 Aug 2017 21:56:52
Time will tell

15 Aug 2017 22:22:21
If it carried on as it is with the fees then who's to say it won't be 30 in Jan, we all k ow he's not worth it but that's the way the market is going

15 Aug 2017 22:30:33
I think so. Doubt he will be worth that much again to anyone.

16 Aug 2017 05:12:45
I can tell now. Wouldn't call the rejection an error more an act of lunacy.

16 Aug 2017 09:32:16
I think decisions like whether to sell Wood are the decisions that the Coach and managemebt team are paid to make and hopefully get right. The coach made it very clear that he wanted him to stay and the board seem to have supported him. To be fair Wood also seems to have avoided any heavy hints that he wants to go. Presumably the decision was also made on the basis of what else was available. Now everyone has to show the decision was right. At least it also shows that we can be firm and say we are not going to sell. Good lucky Woody, now start knocking them in again!

15 Aug 2017 20:24:16
Just got in from work. How's the game going? Stats don't look too promising, hopefully that'll change after half time!

15 Aug 2017 20:45:25
Saiz looks very bright, okane and Phillips steady! Wood absolutely awful, missed a big one on one which we can't afford to be missing in games like this.

15 Aug 2017 21:07:51
I've really liked the look of saiz, wood missed one in the last game too, wonder if his head has been turned? Cheers for the update mate!

15 Aug 2017 21:17:02
Wood is hopeless on one-on-ones. Carthorse in a football shirt.

15 Aug 2017 22:03:18
Octopus, I read your last post on wood, it made me giggle, some truth to it but you've got to be in the right position for it to go in off your elbow, ear, chin and nose! Take it you're not a fan?

15 Aug 2017 22:27:07
Easy there Tiger, 30 goals last season! Already off the mark this season and an assist! Not to bad for a cart horse eh? ! MOT

15 Aug 2017 19:48:46
Is anyone watchi g Gillette Soccer Special on Sky? Phil Thompson has just been on about Middlesbrough and their performance, he said, no shape, weak midfield and they just keep hoofing up field hoping one of the big lads up front gets on the end of it! Now where have we heard that before? MOT

15 Aug 2017 22:24:50
They got 3 points and that's what it's all about

15 Aug 2017 17:46:24
Maybe, just maybe now we've turned down a second bid from Burnley (assuming its between £16 and £20m) other clubs will baulk at the price and look elsewhere. Well done Radz for showing ambition. This guy is a breath of fresh air. Bates would've sold Woody for an undisclosed fee (probably in the region of £2m) the minute the big boys came calling and trousered the money in his Cayman Islands off-shore account (allegedly) ! MM

15 Aug 2017 18:54:12
I really don't understand some players MM, in a way we rescued Wood from the reserves and before that he was tried in the Prem and it didn't work out so we came in and paid £3M for him and he has played well and he's now back on other teams radars, but my question is where is the loyalty because unlike the players us fans stay with LUFC through thick and thin, season after season, defeat after defeat and relegation and more relagation and we don't get paid £25 - £50 grand a week for our troubles! It's about time us fans get what we deserve. loyalty and commitment, our beautiful game of football would be a lot better if it was like that! Just a thought and no stupid response is needed from Leeds88! MOT

15 Aug 2017 19:51:22
Here here woody

15 Aug 2017 17:15:45
Changing subject from the Chris Wood will he won't he saga, I would like to praise our owner Radz for doing the right thing by showing true compassion by splitting the revenue raised on our Cup game with Newport County and respect to their Chairman for saying how grateful he is to Leeds United and our Chairman. That's a great story for Football. MOT

15 Aug 2017 17:54:17
Agreed Mike, great to see from Radz. The guy is doing everything how it should be done and I'm sure winning over a lot of people in the process. Still hasn't converted the West Stand into a Hooters yet, but I'll wait until the transfer window has slammed shut before I'm too critical as I'm sure he's busy looking for more midfielders to sign four year deals at the moment (*sign a central defender please) ! MM

15 Aug 2017 18:10:56
MM you wanting to have a hooters at the ground so you can apply for employment there? 😜
I'm sure everyone on here would come for a pint and slip a fiver in your g-string as you walked past! Rads would make a fortune with you there!

15 Aug 2017 18:45:19
What a dream that would be, straight in Hooters then out for the match where Leeds win again then back into Hooters where all the drinks are on MM, absolute dreamland! I'd be very happy to live the rest of my days like that! Great post MM and Curahee. MOT

15 Aug 2017 19:52:06
Makes a change for the tits not to be on the field!

15 Aug 2017 20:18:12
Agreed 😂😂MOT

Message for Leeds1988. I'm presuming your a Spurs fan, based on comments on this site? So, what's your opinion on the Danny Rose saga? Are you more than slightly embarrassed by his comments about wanting to be a player who people remember and don't have to Google? Are you equally embarrassed that he went on to say that he wanted to play for a team that actually won something? Or, are you just embarrassed because you sit alone at night in your flee pit whilst trolling on this site in the hope of getting a rise? The only rise you'll get sun shine is when you're sniffing your sister's knickers. Now move along kid and get yourself a bit of an education. You might end being qualified to drive the van and not just be the person who puts things in the van. Anyway, well said Danny Rose. All Leeds aren't we? MM

15 Aug 2017 11:49:13
Haha mad Mick you have just proves my point you deluded Leeds fans are easy to get a rise from lol n how can I be embarrassed about what rose said? He said he wants better players to join which is what every player would want from every team you doughnut lol it's so funny a Leeds fan would say that whilst you have unknown rubbish from all over the world lol samu saiz, alioski, ekuban lol I'm surprised you can even find them on Google lol. Absolutely loving the fact you think your in a position to slag Tottenham of lol think it will be quite a few years till your back in the premiership never mind in the top half lol selling wood haha that's like taking a rope and hanging your club lol clueless idiots.

15 Aug 2017 12:40:17
Ffs it's like someone has thrown a tin of Alphabetti Spaghetti all over the screen. It's hard to make sense of your drivel kid. Look at the facts boy. Me and the rest of the regulars on this site, have a shared interest in Leeds United and post accordingly. You, spend your pointless life trolling on a site that has no interest to you because you have nothing else going on in your sad existence. Now who's the doughnut? Lol (as you would say) . By the way, I'm guessing you've never even been to White Hart Lane. Keep playing Fifa and spouting s**te kiddo. Lol Leeds champions 1991-92 - Tottenham Bridesmaids champions 1960-61. MM

15 Aug 2017 14:16:40
Lol lol mick!

15 Aug 2017 14:50:16
What with every sentence having lol in it? What an absolute J ARTHUR.

15 Aug 2017 15:40:22
How old is this kid, how many lol's does one post need. Does anyone not challenged still use it? Walker has walked Rose going to bloom elsewhere
Alderwiereld wielding himself out the door Deli Do Dah going to eat tapas in Spain
Kane will probably follow the rest out the door to get paid the right amount. European Cup next year if they are lucky
LOL
LOL
LOL

I see that thrush has come back again, anyone got any yogurt going spare?

15 Aug 2017 16:28:20
i used all mine up Lucas, sorry.

15 Aug 2017 16:35:01
Kebabman - 1988 is potentially a year of birth so 29 or 30? Seems a bit immature for 29 so maybe that was the year his mum was born, had a child at 16/17 so that would make him/her about 13 years old. Would explain the terrible spelling and overuse of everyone's favourite naughties phrase 'lol'.

15 Aug 2017 16:36:02
Has anyone else noticed the same traits as someone else's posts? When we had the other very negative and ignorant chap on here who's name escapes me, he always and far to often used the lol and ha ha in his posts! He was of the same intellect and definitely another oxygen thief like our lovely friend Leeds88! Oh how I would love to shoot the breeze with him in a quiet country pub one evening! MOT

15 Aug 2017 17:26:51
Reminds me of why I don't do facebook and other social media, by the way my other half is a spurs fan we have a mutual respect on each others clubs, she even will sit and watch a game, some one's got to fetch the beer (M M) I have to add that my other half is educated and does not possess a brain the size of a mouse. Dear chap I suppose you get some pleasure from your posts when you have exhausted the porn channels and your shift at where ever you collect trolley's you will find that we are indeed saddened that your medication has run out .

15 Aug 2017 18:41:56
Excellent post dogwise and for now it all seems to have gone quiet, maybe they have changed the times of Leeds88 medication! What I would give to be able to administer that to him myself! MOT

15 Aug 2017 10:13:25
Looking forward to tonight's game, another home game and on paper tougher than Saturday's . I'm really interested to see how the players and management team respond although there hasn't been much time. We need to try and get some midfield control. So who will be best to do that, Saiz, Kilch and Viera, Alioski and Dallas on the wings?

15 Aug 2017 11:09:24
Would start with Alioski, Viera, Saiz. O, Kane. Question is do we stick to 5 in midfield, which is what's expected or two up front. Be interesting to see what Wood and Ekuban could do up front.

15 Aug 2017 11:28:34
Dallas, O'Kane, Saiz, Anita, Alioski. Switch out Dallas for Viera, switch Alioski to the left and Viera to right wing, throw on Ekuban and move to a 4-4-2 for the last 20 minutes. It's like a crazy game of slide-a-square with our midfielders this season.

15 Aug 2017 11:29:06
I'd like to see two up front, be nice to see some variation and what wood can do with a partner. Be nice to see Ekuban get some time and see what he's like, but if TC decides he isn't ready yet, Roofe and Wood?

15 Aug 2017 12:46:24
Could be worth giving two up front a go especially at home to see if it gives us more control of the game and we have options as to who could partner Wood. I think resting Roofe and starting with Dallas and Alioski, bring Roofe on later in the game to have a go.

15 Aug 2017 12:48:16
4-4-2 would see us playing long ball because our midfield will get over run, reason no decent teams play it. If we want to play 2 up top then 3-5-2 but i'm not sure I would trust our defense to pull that off, maybe if we got Ziegler and Pennington was fit.

15 Aug 2017 09:25:19
Does this talk of Burnley paying over the odds for wood remind anyone else of Liverpool buying Carroll? They get lots of money for a player and then spend a huge amount replacing him with a player of poorer quality? To me it shouts desperateration from Burnley

15 Aug 2017 14:03:42
I don't know - Gray hardly lit up the Premiership last year with his goals. I think he only scored about 5 all season and 3 of those were against a below par Sunderland. surely Wood is better than that?

15 Aug 2017 08:03:38
Lots of chatter this morning that Burnley are going to hit us with 20mill for Woody! Please if they do then just make sure it's all reinvested, we can't replace his goal tally from last year with just 1 player so show some intent n go after maybe Danny inngs, Jordan Rhodes nakhi wells or zahore a combo of those would do me and look at playing with 2 up top! Does me head I how this sort of news always breaks on a match day or day before !
