Look out for a points deduction for LUFC in the aftermath of the trouble between Rotherham and the Pikeys yesterday lol.

On a serious note though, it will be interesting to see how much the popular press make of this and how much bigger and more sensationalised the headlines would be if it were Leeds.

Spot on Mick, treat them nice see what happens. I would bet the Millers are wishing they made them collect tickets at a service station on the M1, but then Hollaway would have something to moan at. Strange he saw no crowd trouble?

Too right AGM. I used to respect Holloway but he's gone down a lot in my estimation. Doubt he'll lose much sleep over that though lol!

have to say yesterday was a shame, we need to improve and things could be better however. I was at the opening game against millwall and that leeds team was going down, we were hopeless. Hock was a joke and his team were legaue two quality. so we have come a long way in a short time. yes we must get better but we are going the right up. up. we have some great youngesters. Cook and mowatt could be very special. Redders might just be the man to make us even better, this is still not his team, he has not borught any players in, so after a close season with him in charge who knows? onwards and upwards. One can dream.On another note met Jimmy Floyd Hasslebaink at my wife's gym the other week. He was really nice signed an autograph and started talking about Chealsea (due to my london accent and saying I had his name on my shirt) when I said no leeds he started talking about how he loved the fans and the club. Really nice guy and happy to give up some time to chat to a fan. how we could do with a player like him at the moment

Its cool to meet players or ex players, I used to watch mowatt play for bentley pumas (my home town). Bumped into batty a couple of times too, we could do with another batty too.

For those (smitch mainly) who thought earlier in the season that the youngsters needed some older heads to help them out. You were correct! But if you don't think that our future is to build the team around the likes of Cook, Byram, Mowatt, Taylor etc., I'm mystified. And I'd be interested to hear the alternative. On another note - is Silvestri going to be able to learn to be more commanding in his area, or do we just have a good shot stopper?

Got to agree with you Speedy.
I think I said this a while ago, that if if these youngsters weren't at Leeds I would be very depressed about the future. In fact I think I'd stick my head in the oven. Mind you it's electric so I'd just fall asleep! :)

We need the future players when we get to the future (premier league) For now we need battlers to get us out of this league not teenagers. Been saying it all season and the league table doesn't lie. None of the other top sides would put up with being 2-0 up at home and throwing it away, so why should we?

our youngester are more talented than any player we could afford to buy. they are class and how do they get better without playing them? agree speedy but then we always do. much bro love speedy

We do usually agree BW ( not quite always though lol)
There is a big difference with what we would all like - for example I'd like Jose M managing us with a multi billionaire absentee owner who let's him do as he wants - and what can happen in reality. We are not going to get huge money signings with the current owner, so I think the best case scenario is to build a team around the youngsters who are keen and talented, with a few experienced older heads to show them the way. It's no good saying keep the young guns back until we get to the prem, because the only chance we have of keeping them, is if they are playing week in week out. I think they are good enough to get us there with the right help. The only alternative is to sell them and use the money to buy a new team. But that's the last thing I want to happen. For me, they are the only exciting thing that's happened this season - which has been very eventful but not very exciting

Couldn't make the game yesterday, and only just watched the highlights, the goals came from extremely poor defending, our defenders run too long with the man instead of making the tackle.
I think this season will be the making of the younger players, at least they are good enough to build a team around for next season.

well most saying same thing Watford straight down middle bamba was then all over the place but this game should of been over at half time question again no striker yes billy scored but then missed the ball from 3ft out how many clubs would have leading goal scorer left out for what 3mths us sorry billy out mirco back and maybe walters nothing to lose now . on cani not given a game so why did we sign him WOODS from Leicester missed him in fact we don't sign from our leagues why is it mc or nr doesn't have enough experience to get players but something wrong we gave Watford this game on a plate when it was over so players should be asking themselves WHY . started off so good and then simple ball down middle and they collapsed

On the positive side it's the first time we have scored more than one for a while!

True but they were 2 goals out of nothing, we didn't exactly open Watford up
