Leeds Banter Archive February 24 2020

24 Feb 2020 20:51:31
What is going on with the joke they call the FA? Just how long does it take to make a decision. We should look at taking legal action against them as I feel they are deliberately trying to unsettle a player a crucial time of the the season. Don't know about banning kiko they should all be banned and struck off, bunch of old 💨.

Ugh the FA . never fir for purpose

Agreed Taddy White it certainly seems like the FA have deliberately procrastinated and delayed matters ( this incident happened 5 months ago and still no verdict ) to unsettle Kiko and Leeds . just like with Bielsa last season.

6 to 8 game ban to be announced with 6 to 8 games left in the season.

25 Feb 2020 13:27:48
Normally I would be the first to join in the condemnations of the FA however, this is where you have Civil Law and Employment Law crossing over. It’s further complicated by the third party, vicarious liabilities.

In summary, I do not think the FA will be masters of the actual timeframe involved here, and whilst I fully appreciate it must be horrendous for Kiki to have been accused of such serious allegations, it would be infinitely more bearable, if you are indeed innocent.

This does not lessen the risk of a potential ban though, with the FA applying the balance of probabilities judgement.

Which really is the FA only thinking of themselves and not the individuals involved.

Think they probably have a problem justifying a ban prob why taking so long. Kiko was pretty adamant he said nothing wrong and brought a strong case so it seems.

25 Feb 2020 14:30:38
Kiko currently has a double finger injury so expecting Meslier to deputize but wondering whether his injury is genuine. Is it Leeds playing mind games back with the FA? Is it some form of divine providence because maybe after the prolonged delay Kiko and Leeds are subliminally sticking 2 fingers up to the FA? Makes you think. I can see a verdict being released tomorrow afternoon late in day.

If this true the he gets what he deserves, can’t have this sort of thing in are game, however if found not guilty he should receive compensation from the other player.

Lads time is we forget all our differences, likes, dislikes and now let's get behind the team for the run in. 12 big games to go, we all need to be fully United and let's get it done.

Best post of the week, onwards and upwards.

Fully agree Leeds1970.

24 Feb 2020 16:52:13
It's not about fan cohesion. That's buying into the mantra of Snake Nag Ruin. It's about goal scoring, conversion of chances. Bamford is not up to the task but the guy who is needs to lose a stone and get fit which probably will only occur late March. Everyone on here knows I love Leeds 💛💙 but it's a two way street. You want the complaining to stop the only way is Bamford taking his chances.

24 Feb 2020 17:22:51
Moan all you like George, think its the sniping 1970 is on about. All in it together.

24 Feb 2020 18:14:09
Bb I defended Bam Bam for a season against Wex criticism mainly but he lost my support when he fluffed that PK. I won't snipe though. I'm happy with the rest of the team especially Dallasy but Bam Bam needs to start sticking them away.

24 Feb 2020 20:17:34
I’m with my long lost twin Georgie . Ever hopeful but with the inability to take our chances by Bam and others far from confident . This team is more than capable of screwing it up from here . 🤞.

24 Feb 2020 21:38:14
Agree about Bam as i have posted many times. Thing is we will not know if JKA is any better unless he starts games and we are running out of them so just need to get behind the lads and hope others start getting their share of goals.

24 Feb 2020 22:12:27
Lol maybe you are indeed getting tooo old and sensitive Corky . I can make you a hot cocoa to calm your irritability 😂😂.

25 Feb 2020 00:13:13
George - the 🐝🐝 have scored the second highest number of goals, and 7 more than us. However, did you know that they have actually blanked more often than we have in the league - 11 times (home to Brum, Stoke, Udders and Forest and away to us, Charlton, Preston, Forest, Blackburn, Millwall and Udders) compared with our 7 (home to Swans, Wendies and Wigan and away to Charlton, Wendies, QPR and Forest) ?

25 Feb 2020 14:35:46
Cluey Did not appreciate that but recently which is what concerns me they've been on fire. In George opinion they're a bigger threat than Fulham and I posted as much beginning of the season. 🐝 will finish top 3 guaranteed. Just hope it ain't no higher than 3rd.

25 Feb 2020 15:55:18
George - You seem to have written Your Own bit of gibberish in the last sentence. Guessing you meant either 'ain't higher 3rd' or 'is no higher than 3rd'.

25 Feb 2020 17:52:57
Clueless Hardly. Gibberish would mean everyone would be unable to decipher what was being said. Since you guessed correctly and immediately it instantly rules out gibberish as an effective description rendering the requisite portion of my post merely grammatically incorrect. Suggest you acquire a better grasp of our native tongue.

25 Feb 2020 22:13:06
I know what gibberish means George - drafting and proof reading are part of my job. It was a jokey imprecise throw away comment on my part.

Went to the game on Saturday with the feeling that it would be a drab affair with Reading playing a defensive game whilst trying to catch us on the break, unfortunately it did not disappoint. We had plenty of possession and created some chances but continue to be wasteful in front of goal however defensively we were solid albeit a slip in concentration at the end which could have cost us dear, well done Casilla. Crossing from Costa and Harrison still remains a bit hit and hope however Dallas showed the way with some very dangerous crosses. For all the good work that Bamford does outside the box I do find him to be a bit static inside the box. Making runs to get in front of the first centre back would have paid dividends to convert the crosses produced by Dallas. That being said it is about wins and I will take 1-0 to us every game during the run in.

24 Feb 2020 13:03:55
Notts - I'd take 1-0 wins every game to the end of the season too, but don't think my hair will!
