I have a question, did Kevin Doyle know he was playing a football match today, or did he think it was an audition to be Tom Dalys partner at the 2014 Olympics?

Hi ed, I watched it on TV today, couldn't go coz skint lol. Pundits were same as normal, doubting leeds all the time. I thought we were good in first half but seem to run out of ideas in the second. But we got a win all the same. The pundits will never change mate, they will always hate us! Cheers. Bri {Ed013's Note - I enjoy them hating us and now I believe we can prove the doubters wrong}

Pearce won everything that came into our box! And Austin sat in front of our back four playing a great role of tracking the runs and reading the game, MOT! Who'd you think he'll play against B'Pool; Diouf or Green? Bryam or bring Lees back? :)
What'd you think Ed?!:)
Calufc96 {Ed013's Note - I thought I had answered this already? Bring Lees in and push young Sam up. If he doesn't perform then Diouf can replace him. That is all said in the case that Green is injured. If not then the same 11 should start}

All the diouf booers? He was quality 2day! Got the ball down and tried to play! That's what we need! Very pleased with performance! WE ALL LOVE LEDDS!! MOT

Believable13 Unbelievable0

No-one booed him today he got a rousing reception. They were saying diouf not boo.

There not boos mate it's: "Diooooooooouf

You should of gone over and politely told him to stop ed ;) haha

TeejLUFC {Ed013's Note - Haha, normally I would, but I had my son with me and didn't want him to see!}

Agree2 Disagree0

Some are boos i had practically the full row directly behind me so i think i could tell if they were booing or not with having them literally in my ear, they soon stopped though when i turned round and called them embarrassments lol i said to them im sure you used to boo vinnie jones all time and cantona when they played for leeds did you? i think not so why do it for Diouf but apart from that the fans were far far more positive and much better atmosphere than last season. Very promising start loved Pearces challenge when he got the ball and the ball went all the way from like the edge of our area to the edge of theres lol.

Agree2 Disagree0

Original poster here I meant the people who booed him against Shrewsbury! I'm a northern Irish Leeds fan and watched game on tv didnt hear any booing! Just think that when some players in our team was panicking a bit he brought the ball down and tried to run the ball out and play a bit of football! Very happy with EHD signing

No matter what, i want him out the club. If we go all the way, can you imagine all that money from prem and how much would be left for squad. I've seen great change on the pitch, just want to see the same off it.

Fair enough I may be as p****d as a fart but that was the most solid Leeds team I have seen in many a year! How many saves did paddy have to save? None! We looked so assured at the back! Jason pearce man of the match? Na for me it was Austin! He was everywhere! MOT -

How amazing was Sam byram today. Played like an experienced pro. The new Gary Kelly.

Believable10 Unbelievable1

He subdued arguably the best winger at this level. Top quality.

TeejLUFC

Agree11 Disagree2

Have to say if I could have any Wolves player at ER it would be Matt Jarvis. Pace, intelligence and close control - way too good for this division. Only Wolves player who looked a real threat. Thought Byram had the hardest job today and came out with a lot of credit.

He woill not outdo bellamy or kim. Leeds need a real challange blackpool and cardiff will give you that

18 Aug 2012 20:13:10
though leeds were quality today! the first hour was very enjoyable and we were undeniably the better side! however even after a hour although we had the lesser of possession we certainly still looked solid at the back. Best defending i have seen by leeds in years! All the players looked very good and exceptionally fit. The only player that i was impressed by was Luke Varney, im afraid after the first half, he made frequent mistakes, and looked a class lower than player like Diouf!

Pap95 MOT

Believable4 Unbelievable3

18 Aug 2012 20:10:02
No doubt about it Diouf was a class act today, very skillful and good at holding up the ball! never seen a fans reaction change so much in one game, at the start there were some boo's however by the end, people wanted his shirt! Quality signing!

Jason Pearce was quality today. About time we got a decent CB. The whole back 4 looked solid today. Austin is a legend after his first game. Cant complain about anyone today. Also the fans seemed to take a liking to diouf. sign him up.

Believable16 Unbelievable1

Spot on . Remember last season and every time the opposition came in to our half we thought they would score. We looked solid throughout today. Much better for the nerves. Thought Warnock showed great experience in packing the midfield for the last 15 or so minutes . Up to the Lees substitution Wolves had enjoyed their best period of the game. Lees introduction brought about a stalemate.

MOT

Agree3 Disagree0

Hmm i wouldnt have the said the whole back 4 looked solid White was a definate week link. But as a whole we were still brilliant there is no doubt in my mind that if that was last year we would have thrown it away :).

Yeah agreed. Defence was great today. Few times when wolves has chances I thought it would've been a goal had we played last seasons defence.

Thoughts Ed?!
Calufc96 {Ed013's Note - Young Sam deserves to play, Diouf hasn't been given a contract yet so I would bring Lees in and try Young Sam out. If it isn't working then bring on Diouf as I expect Green to be out for Tue}

Believable6 Unbelievable0

I think Diouf looked a cut above at times today. He has that level of flair that is required in the squad, his ability to hold up the ball, control and gall to be a quality addition to the team. Although he did look a bit away from match fitness. Definitely deserves a contract.

TeejLUFC

18 Aug 2012 18:51:07
A CLEAN SHEET!
Not a bad player on the pitch today, bit more depth and we will be pushing this season. I think Varney is a squad player though, and even he did well. Austin, Pearce and Diouf the stand outs for me. MOT. Vinny.

Believable6 Unbelievable1

18 Aug 2012 18:46:47
Not a rumour, but listening to 606 we are getting some nice support. Mainly about how we looked like a unit straight away unlike QPR, bet they wished theyd held onto Kenny now.

Poor Snoddy, hope he enjoys his year in the Premiership!

As im sure many have said, i think we looked solid!
Hope the rumours of Buzaksy and fuller are true as i think that will give us an edge.

The one think i think we need is someone who can hold a ball, keep a bit more possession!

not taking anything away from the lads, it was a decent debut showing for a brand new team. but if Warnock decides to park the bus like that on a regular basis he's going to lose us points. we'll be looking at a lot of draws from winnable games. we still need a creative midfield player, ideally who can also play on either wing.

Believable3 Unbelievable5

We didnt park the bus, we played wolves off the park, mccormack and becchio caused all sorts of problems, stop complaining

Agree3 Disagree1

Think we should all trust warnock and what he is trying to do at the club it may not to be fast flowing football we would all like to see but who really cares as long has we get promoted thats the main thing Dale mot4ever!

Agree5 Disagree0

You say park the bus, however we still created opportunities and missed a guilt edge chance when Varney was put through. You have to remember the calibre of opposition we played today, minus Fletcher and O'hara this is the team that played for Wolves in the premier league last year. With Sam making Jarvis look more like a 800K Winger than an 8 million pound one. His tactics were spot on today.

Snodgrass... A fantastic move to Norwich.. Glad to see ure new team doing so well. I believe you will definately be playing Championship football next year. I wish you all the happiness in the world and Im sure all Leeds fans do. Good Luck Snodgrass.. Ure gunna need it.. Just another case of chasing money and not playing for the shirt..

A great result lads today.. A solid performance..Austin is a beasty player and need to keep him fit.. Becchio does wot he always does and works like an horse.. Diouff had a good game when he came on..Mccormack another great show today.. We have by far the most deadly attack in Championship.. MOT!

The takeover dont matter now does it.. Lets just back the boys in white and be their 12th man. Every game..

Ken bates sits in the West Stand and the East Stand Upper isnt open most matches so how can you have a season ticket?

That was the strongest i have seen Leeds play for a long time. At no point did i feel we were going to be in danger of coming away from the game with anything else than 3 points. Every player had a good game & were willing to fight for the team (Varney almost literally ).
All the players should be very pleased with their performance, especially Ross, Austin & the exciting prospect Byrom. I also thought Diouff played well too & his control of the ball was excellent.
We have definitely moved in the right direction & i was proud of the team today.
Thanks lads/Neil.
BTW Austin looks like he's going to be a legend.

I'm not suprised Pearce got it he was absolutely brilliant gobbled everything up and that tackle when the ball ended up going from our area where he made the challenge to Ross Mccormack in line with their area - he is a beast too. But Austin was very good reminded me of a championship version of Makelele :)

From Byram and pearce to Austin and peltier the new guys looked great, varney I'm not so sure. It was great to see a 100% battling unit-not seen that in a few years.

I agree but he is unfit can you imagine what he will b like fully match fit o.w

He certainly brought a touch of class, his close control and hold up play was excellent. Missed the chance to put Byram clean through late in the game, maybe needs to look up more but nw will knock that out of him. I think he'll be sensational when fit.

Hi Ed, Gary Mac was quite impressed, he reckoned that either a midfield play maker or some one to hold the ball would help. I had a laugh when the commentator remarked that the man from Mali was playing well. The camera was on Rodolph at the time! {Ed013's Note - Haha excellent,nice to know he did his homework. 1 or 2 quality signings and I think we will have a very good team}

Just want to say what a fantastic performance, we were incredible today and us fans were outstanding..... It was great to see Diouf be applauded and not boo'ed, because he was fantastic today, he is a very clever footballer and deserves a chance in the White Shirt! I am a very proud Leeds United fan today, we defended like a solid unit and we attacked as a powerful force, just maybe, just maybe....This could be our year!! A happy 5 hours drive home, Leeds!!

18 Aug 2012 14:59:54
Great result today I actually though before the game we might win 3-0 Wolves didn't seem interested today we were miles the netter side.

Some great debuts I must say Varney for me was my man of the match.

Byram started very dodgy but I think all the Leeds fans within Elland Road today can pat themselves on the back for the support he was given without that I think Jarvis would have destroyed him.

I know Peltier isn't a centre back but I'm afraid he's also definitely not even a make shift centre half he was all over the shop Pearce (another great debut) carried him through the game but he did look a lot more comfortable and in control at right back.

Well done to all the rest of the lads making debuts.

Oh yeah by the way Ross and Luciano could well be the best strike pairing in the Championship.

Overall very happy but not getting carried away i still see us struggling for playoffs this season hope I'm miles wrong.

If we play like that every game we only need to score 1 goal but 2 would be more reassuring.

Agree2 Disagree0

Poster doesnt know what he's on about,byram had jarvis in his pocket from the off and peltier was superb,and though varney played well he was behind many for MOM. and to say we will struggle for playoffs,just watch the games because you're no good at analysing games

I stopped reading as soon as i saw "Byram started very dogdy"

TeejLUFC

Ridiculous post tbh, Varney was probably the worst/2nd worst maybe behind White but i think even them two that were the worst didnt have shockers, but say that Varney was Man of the match just proves you probably didnt even watch the game.

Have to say stand out players today Sam byran what a prospect and surprisely diouf was fantastic


Lufc {Ed013's Note - Did you hear my shout out on Yorkshire radio after game? @LeedsEditors #Champagnemoment Sam Byran great shot outside the box}

Believable7 Unbelievable0

Why suprisingly Diouf had a good game? He is a premiership class player, if you watched Leeds Vs Donny at ER last season there was no doubt he is a class above anyone we had here last season.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Aug 2012 14:57:28
We guys...what did you think?? Bit shaky during the second half, but we did it...great start. Diouf was very good imo. He didn't waste a ball that I recall. And what about that ball from Kenny, in fact a couple of great balls to feet.

Anyway MOT - WE ARE LEEDS

Fredh - (happy) {Ed013's Note - I am pleased. 1 or 2 quality signings are going to make everyone in the league stand up and watch this Leeds team go}

Agreed everyone says we need a creative spark for the killer balls etc - in my opinion we already have one in Paddy Kenny haha

Takeover was set to be announced before the game today but some slight legal hitches have meant that the announcement will have to wait for a couple more days. Warnock however is happy about this as he was a bit worried that any announcement before the game would cause the players to loose some of there focus and also he wants the crowd cheering on the players not chanting about new owners/abuse at KB now he's leaving. Gutted i'm not there today as it's set to be an awesome atmosphere, but will be cheering the lads on while serving at the bar.

Cant wait to get going but I feel we need a new signature fans move to bind us all together and create some solidarity. The Leeds salute seems to have gone, the bear chested champions of Europe at half time gone too, the days of the v haircut a faded memory, going mental on the lop extra dictated by the introduction of seats. Any suggestions?

Singing loud and proud is what we do best and will never change.

Well i'm well up for it this season. That doesn't mean i've not been other times but things look a dam site better this time around.
I don't think we could be playing wolves at a better time than this, half the players wanting out and a manager that needs to keep a sinking ship togeather. All this without a single shred of know how, for this league and what it entails.
This is are time to be counted, are time to stand up and people take notice. I couldn't think of a better place to start the season, then at Elland Road.
We will give these lads 100% of a voice, heart and soul. For we are Leeds United and we will rule supreme. So lets all stand asa one and sing for Leeds.
Ill go with a 2-1 victory, with maccormack getting first goal, followed up by a sweet strike from Diouf with 20 mins to go. Wolves will score near the end but only by luck that is.
