Gutted we lost, didn’t deserve to lose but certainly couldn’t have guaranteed promotion today and we definitely haven’t lost the chance after today.

Painful to watch even in sunny Tenerife, another match full of referee errors, lads all performed lower than they’re are capable off that’s for certain. Bamford looks shot on confidence but we don’t have an alternative so I say back him to the hilt until we do.

As for sacking Bielsa, we would be mid table at best without the man with these players.

As for the Radz and Orta haters do t tell me Orta didn’t hurt as much as we did after that game. None of us know the full details (and I think communication should be a lot better than it is) but Radz has done more for this club than any chairman I can recall. And if he really was fleecing us as some claim why spend anything? Why not ken bates assert strip it.

I always remember the legend that was Mad Mick replying many moons ago when everyone was slagging the team an Cellino.

He said they’re my team, it doesn’t matter if we were in the Evo Sick division 9 North that’s who you’d follow, cos it’s Leeds.

It’s like family your kids may not be the best looking or the brightest but I bet they are to you as a parent.

And I respect everyone is hurting especially those magnificent Leeds fans today. But this is when the team needs all of us more than ever, not seven wins in a row but now with one win in eight.

Horrible yeah, but it’s still Leeds our club and we can still do this. I actually feel sorry for Bam not his idea to have one striker at the club and he’s still working his %#^ off!

So I respectfully reserve your right to criticise Bam, Bub, Orta, Radz but until it’s mathematically impossible to go up I’m going to be excited about the possibility of I promotion happening excited about the possibility of new signings and excited about the stunning football we continue to blame.

It’s NOT a case of winning is everything I’m just blissfully stuck supporting this magnificent Leeds United.

#getpromotiondone!

Nice post class and I do see what you are saying. I would argue that Radz is asset stripping the club. Selling players and replacing with temporary loans and kids is not investing in the club. Buying the ground and keeping it separate to the club is questionable. He takes a mighty big wage from the club and hasn’t put any of his own money in.

As for Bamford. What choice does he have but to work? Yes it’s not his fault that he isn’t skillful enough to be in the position he is in. That’s all well and good but the fact is he is not good enough and we need better. Not to beat him down but to give this magnificent club the chance to be great again. You wouldn’t bring in a non league striker on the basis that they’ve they work there ar$e off would you? I would work my ar$e off for Leeds given the chance but I’m 41 with asthma and two right feet so it wouldn’t help the club.

18 Jan 2020 23:42:33
Love this post class, echos my thoughts exactly, by the way are you SS? Think I may have met you in Tenerife last year. DM.

19 Jan 2020 01:19:32
Yeah let's back bamford to the hilt. like saying go all in with a pair of 5s.

19 Jan 2020 02:34:26
100% Class, a Class post. Slagging our team will not help their performance. It was apparent during the documentary how negative coments affected the players and their families and that is something we should remember. Go for your life slagging off the other teams but Leeds are our Team, our Family. MOT.

19 Jan 2020 08:18:20
Love your sentiment classof92 and do agree that despite the hurt and moaning most IF not all on here will continue to support Leeds United whatever. Radz has done lots of good things for this club and No one saying Bielsa hasn't been great for the team and club. What is really frustrating is it appears we are continuing to repeat the same mistakes as last season rather than learn from them. We have been in the best position to get out of this division, but mirror failings from last season. IMO not strengthening a small squad last season cost us and if we fail to rectify the same problem this time it will happen again.

19 Jan 2020 08:57:06
Probably the best thread that has been on this forum for some time. All the initial comments make sense and there are very valuable replies also. Taken together all the points from both sides are valid, giving a clear insight into our current position.

19 Jan 2020 09:19:34
Great points Alf and yes we all want the same thing as I stated previously I totally respect the frustrations was bawling at Mrs Class yesterday (she wasn’t listening) why do we even bother with corners do not think one went to a Leeds target?

Hi caffeine shot no, I’m not SS, probably out here 4-5 times a year realise at 56i can’t do cold January. Here’s to hoping we unearth a new Dan James and buy him this time!

19 Jan 2020 10:31:18
love the sentiment class but they must serve strong stuff in teneire if you are still optomistic

fredh i hate this slagging the players nonsense. they are professionals and there to do a job. Of course momemtum and mindset makes a big difference but if you can't handle negitivety you ain't cut out for the job or the manager is not doing his

great players like ronaldo, maradonna even types like bellemy and el douf thrive off it

i personally thin kthe positivity does more harm than the negitivity . must be awful having 40k fans singing about going up when we aint.

{Ed001's Note - that's not true. Players never thrive off negativity from the fans. There is a difference between opposing fans giving them stick and them feeling it is a compliment, which is what Bellers and all those others loved, and their own fans giving them grief. It was Barca fans on his back that led to Maradona leaving for Napoli.}

19 Jan 2020 11:10:16
Well said Ed!
And Class? 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Send that post to the YEP to get it published fella. Some just don’t know how good we’ve got it. ( I’ll caveat that by saying I understand the desire to invest for the final push over the line! )

18 Jan 2020 19:53:51
After the home game against QPR this season I wrote on here that we needed a leader on the pitch to get at the referee as at ER we had a poor one again against them and they capitalised by time wasting, feigning injuries and generally breaking up play and ultimately our style. Three months later and guess what QPR do the same but this time they get the first goal. We are too nice, MB is too nice, the players are too nice look at Harrison first half gets a really poor challenge and bounces up instead of laying still for twenty seconds and getting the guy booked. Cameron, horrible player, Pearson at PNE, horrible player but they get away with everything, why because they are in the refs ear from the first whistle . How's the wife, good decision ref, you got that right, watch him ref that's his second etc etc meanwhile we've got league one Liam sending his shirt to a 5 year old whose got a cold and telling us all via Twitter that the lads will react after last week ( hope you've saved that tweet Liam) It is really p*ssing me off.
I also don't give a toss about the following
How much possession we have
How many shots we have
How many transfer targets we have
How young our bench is
How Victor feels it
How rich we are going to be
How awful the refs are
How hard working Bamford is
How mad Alioski is
How lovely KP is
How revered MB is
All I want is someone to give us the passion we need to match the fitness and style of play and more importantly that on us long suffering supporters.

18 Jan 2020 20:15:54
😂😂😂😂 Another League 1 Liam man like myself.

18 Jan 2020 20:26:46
Top, top post Will.
That’s what all of the best Leeds United teams have always had.

18 Jan 2020 20:40:17
Spot on Will, time to fight fire with fire. As playing to the rules clearly has no benifit. Monk used the same tatics with Brum last season, as with Wendies this season, and Because of weak refs gets the result. Leeds need to start giving it back.

18 Jan 2020 20:40:18
Spot on Will.

18 Jan 2020 21:43:23
great post been saying for ages many fans forgive belisa his sins because we play pretty football. i don't care i cheer a win first then the performance second

belisa out

warnock, houghton or if proper ambitious Rafa bentiez in. he has managed in the championship and knows english football. and unlike belisa rafa is a winner who can get a job done. still think we mised a trick not getting pearson in in the summer. belisa was never the man for the job. an also run. a good guy on paper to ulagise about but no good on grass where football is played.

18 Jan 2020 22:54:59
Excellent post Willthe white . fully agree on al points m. yes passion is what we definitely need

. its what the Leeds promotion team of 3O years ago in Strachan, Vinnie, Batts, Mel Sterland and Sgt Wilko amongst others had in abundance.

18 Jan 2020 23:43:40
Will Cracking post. If we had the nasty ruthlessness I've posted about, Paddy would've put his foot through it and one way or tother we'd have a second striker. Yeah I know. Where's the first at?

19 Jan 2020 02:47:09
I don't F***ing beleive what I am reading. Warnock, Houghton. please. Rafa ok when we get into the Prem and Bielsa retires. but honestly those other jokers above Bielsa. Next thing Hockaday will mentioned as a suiter. In Bielsa I trust. MOT (:-! )

19 Jan 2020 10:12:15
Colin? Can’t you remember how that turned out last time.

19 Jan 2020 10:40:23
cloin. had no money no players. he had no chance. let's be fair he ain't done bad else where has it. laughing at colin in the championship as a manager when we have belisa is like driving past a bentley in a ford KA and taking the mick

in belisa you may trust. but in warnock 7 other teams have been promoted. let's see how belisa works out. again.

19 Jan 2020 11:17:27
Fredh. Spot on. Football has progressed since most of those mentioned, except bought on, who still has a big future, just not with us. Let’s not forget our managers of recent times, and be grateful for what we have right now. This Bielsa out garbage is just that, utter garbage.

18 Jan 2020 18:22:51
All the talk of investment didn't materialise.

18 Jan 2020 19:06:23
Were you expecting someone to walk out into the pitch at half time with an oversized cheque?

18 Jan 2020 20:18:19
Alf 😂😂😂😂😂😂.

18 Jan 2020 20:28:13
Reckon it’ll be announced after the window. 😢.

18 Jan 2020 20:41:44
What’s the point of investing after the window is closed?

18 Jan 2020 21:46:07
It’s a sign of intent to buy the club in the summer, without investing during this window, almost like a pre contract agreement. The terms for purchase agreed in two guises: PL / Championship.

18 Jan 2020 16:57:28
A let off from Brentford! Well done dog botherers!

18 Jan 2020 17:42:22
Yes, but we can't rely on other teams to help us over the line to prem. We have to start putting things right very quickly, maybe playing a different formation as we are so predictable right now. More use of squad instead of sticking with his favourites, no room for sentiment anymore! Onwards to the next game and hopefully upwards!

18 Jan 2020 18:08:24
Totally agree bazz, but when we do slip up, it’s nice to see our competition do the same!

18 Jan 2020 18:17:44
We will know by February if we are going up or not, next 6 a return to no nonsense solid team graft is required, mentally I would think millwall game is really messing up the lads heads now, timing couldn't be worse.

18 Jan 2020 18:54:20
Season ends in February? Ba”@*rds have done me when they sold me my season ticket.

18 Jan 2020 20:31:25
Chris, I fear big Matt Smith is going to have a field day against us. 😟.

18 Jan 2020 15:53:15
Trying to cheer myself up. We are still second, yet again lose a point to dreadful decision. QPR tactics worked, share yellows, fling yourself down at every opportunity.

18 Jan 2020 16:51:56
Fair point Whitesee but these could be costly points come the end of the season. I'm really worried now.

18 Jan 2020 17:16:31
Think u r missing the point despite a terrible decision and an average performance we still had enough chances to win this game but couldn’t take them
Unless we get a quality striker and what r the odds of that with radz we wil b struggling to finish in top 6.

18 Jan 2020 15:19:13
Maybe all the stops will not be pulled out if Radz is happy with 80 mill?

18 Jan 2020 15:42:39
Leodis but is this takeover happening or just bs .

18 Jan 2020 15:56:04
I've stated on rumour page QSI have bought 20% with the option of a full buy out, this will be more publicly known at the end of the transfer window.

18 Jan 2020 16:18:12
Well Gelderd that is good news then .

18 Jan 2020 19:09:56
Don’t know what was discussed but QSI has dinner last night with AR and VO.

18 Jan 2020 21:51:06
I wrote in post this morning, hopefully loans, or investment this week, or a final purchase agreement to be announced later; hoping for one of the first two, particularly the first. If wolves can find a loophole to bring in players, why shouldn’t we?

18 Jan 2020 15:11:38
Bielsa, love the man. Love his football style but his flaws are beginning to outweigh his brilliance.
Why does he persist with his system when it is screamingly not working. His small squad has its merits but the downside is the need to play players who are out of form and even the ones in form, out of position. Also he doesn't have a small squad, in an emergency he has use of any one of the U23s (who all know how to win) but for some reason he has little confidence in them (one in particular) . Either Radz/ Orta have to break the bank and get in, not just a striker but also a goalscoring Attacking Midfielder.

18 Jan 2020 16:08:34
I don’t have a problem with Bielsa at all at this moment. Yes, a few strange decisions like the late sub today, but we still dominate, and still create rafts of chances. What baffles me, is why every single player, bar the gk, can’t hit a barn door either!? Is that down to the coach? Is it the type of chances we are creating? Are the players psychologists weak? I think talk of sacking MB is well wide of the mark, like all of our shots!

18 Jan 2020 16:36:44
I don't think sacking him is the answer either, but I feel he needs to admit his ethos is not working and he needs to adapt accordingly and he needs to accommodate a goal scorer into Paddy's play

He also needs to stop spinning the poor displays and stop saying we will only sign a player who improves the team .

Isnt that the reason why all players are signed to improve the team, we all know that, stop saying it + JUST GO DO IT.

18 Jan 2020 15:01:28
Baffles me why we never change our formation to keep teams guessing, if it was me I’d play 2nd half of the season with 4-4-2 everyone knows we play with no striker ( can’t could bumford as a striker ) drop klich as well he’s been crap this season Costa is crap.

18 Jan 2020 15:14:16
Would need a 2nd striker for that, and don't even have one.

18 Jan 2020 15:15:46
Not according to a few on here DML , they told me I was clueless for suggesting Costa was crap months ago. More worried about his hair then improving his overall play.

18 Jan 2020 15:17:30
DML I identified this as a solution long ago. Our failure to implement is why Eddie is recalled. Playing such formation at home would have seen Eddie playing time double which would've pleased his permanent employers. It's all fallen apart now. No way out unless my recommendation adopted. Ruthless on the sacrificial lamb but that's what life and business all about. Arsenal were ruthless with us over Eddie. We need to be ruthless with ourselves. George recommendation in next 2 weeks or season over and Bielsa train derailed and all that work for nowt.

18 Jan 2020 15:18:00
I think their wingers showed Harrison and Costa how to do it. Some of the time just pick the ball up and at the worse, if you get into the box, a penalty could result when defenders panic.
Purse strings now need to be loosened to get fresh blood (sooner rather than later) to give the squad a much needed shake up. Personally I would concentrate on a striker (and play two up top) and a midfielder (give Klich a rest! ) .

18 Jan 2020 15:20:07
That's a valid point DML and I have been thinking the same for a while now. When Bubba first came we took everyone by surprise which is why I thought last season was our best chance of promotion but we ran out of steam.

As John Cleese once said in a Monty Python sketch when something went wrong, "Think, Adapt and Improvise".

Play 2 up front for god's sake, what is there to lose? Shake it up, throw a spanner in the works, throw a curved ball but mainly DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT!

18 Jan 2020 15:26:58
Drop for who? We have a bunch of kids on the bench who Bielsa does not trust to play.

18 Jan 2020 15:49:43
Are we back to, good idea but the man is too stubborn? I too would play two up top. Bamford for his workrate (just don't expect goals) and a poacher to feed off the scraps.

18 Jan 2020 15:51:43
I think we are all pretty much in agreement on this, for me we need 2 strikers or use kun or Ryan plus a quality loan, our attacking midfielders aren’t scoring enough either considering the chances we create! Que Bowan!
Am I alone in actually thinking you could see us losing today after about 6 or 7 minutes and how bloody upsetting this game and result actually are? That one hurt today and I fear will have huge significance on the season as a whole.

18 Jan 2020 16:08:09
2 sheds you can only play 2 up top when you have 2 up top in your squad, appalling management that let's a scenario develop where a team pushing for. promotion to EPL travel with 1 striker who can't score,

All season the pro Radz lot told us we were clueless for even questioning Andreas modus operandi well what's quiet clear now is who really was clueless,

Unless proper quality is recruited in the next 2 weeks those players will limp to April in a very ragged fashion.

18 Jan 2020 16:11:10
Bang right Leodis re the two QPR wingers, pace to burn, and oozing confidence and skill with the ball. Gave our guys a schooling.

18 Jan 2020 17:54:48
Canada . second striker? We anti got one, one would be nice, I don’t know how bam bam has got the check to pick up his fat wages each week.

18 Jan 2020 14:49:36
I'll say again how many bloody corners do we need, we'd have more chance with snow White and the seven dwarves in the box. Needs to change it now, one striker in a squad . absolutely ridiculous.

18 Jan 2020 15:19:52
Agreed . so bad at corners, scoring and defending. ) . Bielsa at fault for that .

18 Jan 2020 15:31:25
Totally agree re corners. Have said before, that opposition teams seem comfortable conceding them, as we pose no threat at all. Very strange.

18 Jan 2020 14:41:12
Hasselbaink said before the game Leeds won't win promotion with Bamford, but we lack cutting edge from every other forward player, the manager Bielsa as to take responsibility we had a striker but wouldn't play him his he going to play a new striker if we get one in i very much doubt it, nothing will change now once again running out of steam, ideas, small squad syndrome with the same mentality from the manager.

18 Jan 2020 15:07:56
Bubs interview was so frustrating Gelderd, he says we LOST 2 strikers,
Well you refused to give 1 any decent game time, the other left because he wasn't offered the going rate,

Your the manger Your the man who is supposed to have a say on the team selection, well here's a thought Marcelo, learn some English and go tell Radz to buy a striker + buy a defender because God help us when Ben hogs on, because we will then have League 1 Liam as main defender

What a absolute frightening thought.

18 Jan 2020 14:36:29
Question - would Ryan have missed that?

18 Jan 2020 14:45:03
Maybe Lodis Bamford looks devoid of confidence but then whole team looks jittery when that happens mistakes follow

At the moment with confidence so low and mind set setting in you have to fancy us to concede and not to score. worrying times.

18 Jan 2020 14:35:37
I still say our problems aren't football related.
We are just cursed! 🤬🤬
I love being a Leeds fan, but I effing hate being one too! 😭😭.

18 Jan 2020 14:49:08
Correct danum our problem is executive board related a shocking fact 1 striker in your match day squad, Sunday league wouldn't have it.

18 Jan 2020 15:36:24
With you on that Danum. Painful.

18 Jan 2020 14:34:44
Pro Radz lads for a comment!

We are stuck in a inertia under him, all the rubbish talk means nothing without ACTION,
Don't bother with the 5 year plan crap we are a bare bones squad with a supposed main playmaker whose approaching late 30,s, a main striker who can't + NEVER WILL. be a prolific striker, enough is enough, call a spade a spade this team needs serious investment, Costa rubbish, Cooper Rubbish, Ali rubbish,

I wonder how the all is rosy lot on here are going to spin this 1?

18 Jan 2020 14:41:32
Bielsa post match interview might be interesting.

18 Jan 2020 14:43:12
The pro ( Chancer) Radz and (inncompetent) Orta apologists on here will eventually realise this Chris.

18 Jan 2020 15:39:02
Realists, not apologists Vid. Drop the insults, as there’s no need. You have an opinion, we do too, and that’s how it is. You ain’t changed our minds yet, so you won’t, so take a break.

18 Jan 2020 15:54:56
Bright the word ' apologist' is not an insult lol.

18 Jan 2020 16:48:11
It is to me mate, as I don’t “apologise” for him, I just hold a different perspective on him and his management of the club to you and a few others on here. I won’t apologise for that different perspective either. It’s used in a mocking / provocative manner. That is all.

18 Jan 2020 17:10:01
Bright I can tell you now straight up pal , my irk is certainly not aimed at you or anyone else, my irk is at Andrea etc, We are ALL Leeds fans, WE ALL want the best for the shirt, WE ALL are hurting now .

Weekend is rapidly going down hill I trying to calm my brain by watching the. snooker, 😂😂😂.

18 Jan 2020 17:15:18
Brighty no one is asking you to apologise for your different ' perspective'

18 Jan 2020 17:18:31
No worries pal, and I understand your point of view, just can’t agree with it. Story of life, innit!? 🍻🍻🍻👍🏻.

18 Jan 2020 14:31:05
Well, that’s it, game over. Phillips being sent off is just the cherry on top. Bye bye promotion hopes, would’ve been nice but Radz’ bottom line matters more than the fans.

18 Jan 2020 14:48:00
Let’s not let mb off the hook either my bet if him getting sacked before end of window is looking a great shout now. place in August.

18 Jan 2020 15:01:32
Radz is milking the club it's his cash cow

. The takeover speculation is just that. speculation ( instigated by Radz) £80 million? . no chance . no buyers

. Leeds will get worse in the next 2 years under Radz and Orta . mid table at best.

18 Jan 2020 14:25:48
The wheels have finally come off.

18 Jan 2020 15:02:06
Plan b is to plan before the transfer window opens get you bid in on day one not wait around so they all go to other clubs, Radz has to sell and now he has no plan whatsoever, his 5 year plan is no where to be seen.

18 Jan 2020 14:21:41
Just goes from bad to worse. Words fail me for how poor we are.

18 Jan 2020 14:12:41
Awful awful awful today, yes the officials have been terrible but we need strengthening all over the pitch. Another cb, bowan and 2 strikers, I’ve read Niass from Everton has been offered too us, I’d take him plus 1 more . I’ve always stuck by Bamford but no more, he should never ever ever wear that shirt again. The miss in the first was poor at best but that excuse for a penalty is disrespectful to each n every leeds fan the world over! For me if we do not bring in fresh faces of better quality then we definitely won’t go up and we say cheerio to Bielsa and Phillips, oh and Helder Costa is absolutely a waste of money he is crap.

18 Jan 2020 14:21:56
No leaders on the pitch. No leaders in the boardroom. Stubborn Coach who refuses to accept he needs players.
orta not doing his job - this transfer window was not planned at all - like the previous four windows.

18 Jan 2020 14:27:48
Otherwise ok? Sadly I agree. Wheels are off and I don't see us putting them back on. Radz Orta and Bielsa all to blame. Intransigence to play 4-4-2 at home cost in the end as that was the key to Eddie retention.

18 Jan 2020 13:56:09
We all knew Bamford would miss that penalty.

18 Jan 2020 14:07:40
Why doesn’t Phillips just put his laces through it .
We are shocking at penalty’s. And shooting in general. Lol.

18 Jan 2020 14:09:28
I did.

18 Jan 2020 14:17:43
bamford deviod of confidnce but then the whole team is


where is the man manager to lift the team

bring in a man manager to get us over the line for the love of god.

18 Jan 2020 14:23:26
He should never wear the shirt again.

18 Jan 2020 14:29:47
Now we will hear that we regularly practice our penalties at T Arch.

18 Jan 2020 14:35:40
I’ve said it since I played football in the seventies.
YOU SHOULD NEVER MISS A PENALTY. no matter how good the keeper is Le Tiss didn’t miss?
Shocking.

18 Jan 2020 13:51:57
For me that was last chance saloon for Bamford, poor penalty poor player
This ship has sailed now on Bamford, radz dig deep for a GOALSCORER.

18 Jan 2020 14:08:43
Bamford is a Radz and Orta signing . and we have just him and no other striker

Chancer Radz and incompetent Orta out .

18 Jan 2020 14:15:20
About as much chance as Mbpabbe signing as is chance of Radz digging deep, he will sell 4 before he buys 1.

18 Jan 2020 14:18:14
Not going to happen, at least we now know how this season will pan out. Play off heart ache again if we are lucky.

18 Jan 2020 13:26:29
As expected we can't score. Bamford absolutely awful in front of goal. The rest of his game isn't bad- not great- but that's the worst of all worlds. He keeps his place because of his general play but is an absolute liability as far as the score sheet is concerned. Missed a chance I would have been embarrassed about when I was playing. They have better quality up front although, worryingly, they also missed a sitter. By the way I know their goal should have been disallowed but that doesn't matter. We have players out position and Dallas against Samuels is no contest. Dall is out his depth. Costa is not worth anything like 15 million and, as I have said, Hernandez is feeling his age. Hope its a better second half.

18 Jan 2020 13:38:50
Klich for weeks has been questionable.

18 Jan 2020 13:46:26
Whole team is below par.

18 Jan 2020 13:17:28
awful first half

we now know cooper ain't good enough

yes could of had pen and goal shouldn't of stood but we gave naki freedom of the park and let's be honest qpr are by far the best team and well desevre the lead

apprently belisa is world class. so must be a lot of world class managers in the championship because they often out class our gaffer. warburton has tactics spot on

alisko has to come on to deal with the wingers pace

kp best 45 i have seen from him in ages

quick question what happens if we need to chase a goal ofr if bamford gets injured

belisa out too many world class managers are getting the better of him for my liking

1 win in 8 and can't win in london. leeds are not going up unless something changes.

18 Jan 2020 13:32:53
Were behind due to officials incompetence.

18 Jan 2020 13:35:29
Can’t score with barn door Bamford regardless. Another sitter missed and we have the 17th worst conversation rate in the league. Ridiculous.

18 Jan 2020 13:38:57
so leeds was better than qpr canada? really

how much space did we give to Naki

yes goal shouldn't of stood but only one team in that 45 minutes and it wasnt leeds was it?

18 Jan 2020 13:07:52
Said it for 2 years now.
Get rid of that useless fing Bamford.
Non league ability.

18 Jan 2020 12:54:21
Of course wells was going to score against us.

18 Jan 2020 13:04:07
But really more of course we would get another disgraceful set of match officials. playing against 14.

18 Jan 2020 13:06:11
Well we did give him the freedom of London to score.

18 Jan 2020 13:21:40
Thought his profession was basketball?

18 Jan 2020 13:21:57
Thought it was Wilt the stilt who scored currently on loan from the Harlem globetrotters.

18 Jan 2020 13:22:14
He didn't the refereeing team did.
Why do we always get screwed.
Actual think ref hasn't been too bad apart from that mess up, but by god it costs us again.

18 Jan 2020 13:24:48
Why do we have linesman if he couldn't see the double handball?
All so predictable though. If they ever make a remake of the film groundhog day, bielsa a shoe-in for the part.

18 Jan 2020 13:38:36
Why isn't it 2 nil though? A foul wasn't called and he only scored once. That's how the scoring of basketball 🏀 works.

18 Jan 2020 12:01:58
Just seen some of our comments about our bench today on FLW, we ask for inclusion if U23’s and when we put them on the bench we complain, just can’t win.

18 Jan 2020 13:23:22
Essex what you aren't thinking of here is that , its the bigger picture here, it's not so much the inclusion of youth, it's the stagnation in the remaining transfer window that is driving a lot of fans mad, if we lose again today and the rot will have truly set in, radz +ortas refusal to spend cash on a RECOGNIZED STRIKER + defender might well be a carbon copy of last year, if that happens again even the die hard pro radz brigade WILL HAVE TO ADMIT that it's indefensible anymore,

Here's hoping that's not going to be the case.

18 Jan 2020 13:35:44
No complaints from me but when your bench consists of an albeit very talented goalkeeper, two central defenders, winger turned left back, defensive midfielder, midfielder and winger you tend not to get excited. Where's Gotts and Berardi? Had Bielsa adopted George's 4-4-2 at home suggestion wouldn't be without a recalled Eddie. We're in trouble now. Lack of foresight.

18 Jan 2020 14:45:07
Yes we can. I'm all for the youngsters on the bench but no striker? . That's pathetic. I think Bielsa has taken us as far as he can. He's done a great job getting us playing after the previous terrible managers. Now we need another to finish the job.

18 Jan 2020 10:57:35
How many games and months since we won darn soufth, QPR are better this season so could be a real test. I really rate Eze and have stated numerous times that I would love him at Leeds, can't believe he not been snapped up.
Try nullify him and a good chance, I feel we will win today and go on a winning run. Need to after Fulham and brentford closing in.
Sounds like Radz and Orta with Qsi, doesn't Orta need to be here working on incomings? Getting a little concerned, rumors seem to be of Lufc now desperate for striker.
Would be happy with gray but still missing that MF player, Roberts constantly injured and no help. Let's hope Pablo is nicely rested and ready to run the game.
Mot.

18 Jan 2020 12:08:05
Saw they were eating together last night. Maybe just maybe, a loan player or two from PSG to help with promotion? Wishful thinking, I’m sure.

18 Jan 2020 12:15:24
Unfortunately Pablo is well past his best and is starting to suffer from injuries as he tries to keep himself up to speed. Dallas isn't good enough in the mid field role and neither is Roberts even when fit which isn't very often. Good Striker, attacking midfielder and central defender in that order. I don't think we will get any - decent ones. I hope I'm wrong but my so called negative comments have unfortunately been realistic over the years. Just hoping that one year I'm going to be completely mistaken.

18 Jan 2020 08:45:38
The fact that Hull have signed Wilkes from Barnsley, may suggest they will sell Bowen in this transfer window. Ourselves, Newcastle and Villa are all after him, so do we really think we have a chance to get him? Newcastle must be the favourites, can't see how we can compete finacially. Suppose it comes down to Bowens ambition, sign for one of these 2 premiership teams now or come to Leeds and get us up. Lots of players choose the easy option of instant step up to a premiership, doesn't always work out for them, example Vydra.

18 Jan 2020 09:24:20
Think he will choose Newcastle, is he not ex Hartlepool so might be from that part off the world, probably guaranteed football with them, but villa will be in championship next season, would love the signing but like Adam's won't happen, must be some 18 or old kid somewhere playing in some countries 3 tier we can sign (for the future)

18 Jan 2020 10:37:24
Wherever they come from, we need additions! A striker, and a Pablo back up. It seems at the moment, Orta is looking mainly at the UK though!? And I’d be amazed if we got Bowen, tho being promoted, and playing for Leeds in the PL is more appealing than Steve Bruce!

18 Jan 2020 11:11:46
Wilks is hardly a replacement for them. One Barnsley goal so far.
Can't see that having any impact.
