Subs bench??
A minor dilemma. With Pearce and Austin back, who would you take off the subs bench? Bear in mind the subs bench we had tonight.

Believable1 Unbelievable3

Brown out Austin in

Gary out Pearce in

Simple

Great win tonight lads, but after two great performances would you recall Pearce back to starting line up ? Not blaming him but looking good at the back.

Still great performance tonight

Lufc jimmy

Believable5 Unbelievable0

Keep the same side at present, I've really enjoyed the last two games the lads have played really well, if I could recall anything it would be the stay away fans , although the 17,000 tonight made a good effort to create an atmosphere .

Agree6 Disagree2

There will be some great dilemmas for warnock soon.
I think though he should stick to the team that wins.
Pearce and then Austin will have to wait.
However I think our best team is -
Kenny
Bryam lees Tate drury
Green Norris Austin Thomas
Diouf McCormack

Agree4 Disagree8

Becchio??

Agree8 Disagree2

Considering all players fit, I wud agree. Bechio hasn't been great this season.
Against both palace and Leicester we haven't had enough shots on goal.

Agree0 Disagree5

How has beccio not been great?? hes our leading scorer and 3rd in the championship!!
smaca white

Agree4 Disagree0

Yeah - just a dozen goals this season, Luciano. Very poor indeed.

Agree2 Disagree0

I think warnock will probably rotate between mccormack and diouf .
becchio as been playing quite well last few games . attackers are rated by goals and hes gonna end up with over 20 this season maybe even 30 . the good thing about the squad we have is warnock picks his 11 and can change formation without bringing subs on as most of our team are versatile .

Agree0 Disagree0

How many goals has Bechio scored from open play?

Agree1 Disagree0

Post 6 - great use of sarcasm ;)

Agree0 Disagree0

Errr? How many shots on goal did the team have against Leicester? Personally I think both diouf and McCormack are better than Bechio.

Agree0 Disagree0

Couldn't make the game tonight due to trains not running in Devon due to floods but listened on the radio, didn't sound like the best game of football but I tell you what......what a result! For all you doubters knocking the team and the manager, open your eyes Warnock has now been given money signed 2 cracking players, the take over is now complete and the team morale is high, we are going to storm this league, may not win it but we'll be as close as any! We've beaten two of the high flyers in this division within 4 days, and we haven't been outplayed in either! We can do this and we will do this, tonight was for everyone connected with the club and Gary Speed! We're going up 2012/13 Marching on Together see you all at Huddersfield (if the trains are running LOL) PickersLUFC

A nice win in memory of Gary Speed.
I DID actually forecast a 1-0 win
with Luciano scoring. I just
thought it would be in the tenth
minute of extra time ......

I see the crowd tonight is only 17000, so much for the bates haters returning, I thought there were thousands of them clearly not as many as they all thought there were.

Believable8 Unbelievable0

How about just enjoying the win instead of moaning about who wasnt there

Agree12 Disagree1

Excellent result, but my sentiments are with the original poster.
Lots of sites including this one, we had to put up with - 'I'm not going to any matches while bates is in charge' - every bloody day. And if you go on LUST site they are still making excuses cos bates is sort of still there.

Agree4 Disagree0

28 Nov 2012 06:49:32
i will keep saying it . bates is still chairman fact. as the who say meet the new boss same as the old boss . when bates is just a bad memory and long gone i will be back.

Agree1 Disagree5

People not going now are cutting of their nose to spite their face, ridiculous

Agree3 Disagree0

When will poeple grasp the fact that bates isnt the boss anymore, he's only chairman in name, no financial gain and no say in team or transfers, so for the stay aways its just a tired excuse

Agree7 Disagree2

1 man shouldnt stop you supporting the team you love, just saying

Agree3 Disagree2

Been to the last two games and enjoyed them both, stay away fans can do what they want to and they have every right to do so. you lot continually moaning and crying about them will not encourage them to come back. you are damaging the club by slagging these people off because they will not come back and spend money if you keep doing this.

Agree2 Disagree0

Bates now only receives a wage from gfh ,he cant just take millions from the club when he wants . everything is upto gfh bates is just another number to them now . if you can afford to go then its time to get back to ER .
i know fans are just waiting to see if money is spent in jan before they return which is fair enough i suppose but for the bates excuse its old news .

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Nov 2012 21:15:58
I hope Warnock proves me wrong,but I can't believe he is playing for a clean sheet,with our defensive record,please leeds come on,see it out.

Believable1 Unbelievable1

27 Nov 2012 21:39:02
JOB DONE!

Agree5 Disagree0

27 Nov 2012 21:45:50
I had the same thought when i saw the substitution but he was proved right. The way Tate seems to be sorting the defence though i am already more confident in our ability not to concede.

Agree1 Disagree0

I am original poster,Neil Warnock you proved me wrong, well done to you and the team.

Agree4 Disagree1

So leave Tate or bring peace back to starting line up

Agree0 Disagree1

Well you clearly can't take tate out, so if he was to come back someone else would have to go but I sure he will keep it the same, pearce will get his chance, thats football

Agree0 Disagree0

Pearce at LB?

Agree0 Disagree1

27 Nov 2012 18:25:55
personally think thomas will return to wba in january. so if gfh put the reported 8 million into the team then i would sign these players.....

Albert Adomah : 2million
George boyd: 250-500k
Matt Phillips: 3-4 million
Alan Tate: 250-500k
Liam Trotter: 1-2 million
Ryan hall: 250k
Michael Tonge :free-250k


these are realistic and solid signings at champ level and all have the ability to be prem players.

i think we need a midfielder like the old howson. someone who scores about 10 a season good at getting back and defending and is young!

Believable6 Unbelievable3

Norris and Green are better than howson and AUSTIN would have been your midfielder who scores 10 goals a season and gets back to defend

Agree6 Disagree2

Agree. Howson couldn't defend. How the hell Johnson gets into the Norwich team I don't know. Funny I don't think howson has played much.

Agree1 Disagree1

Leeds were doing fairly well in the league until Howson got injured against millwall then downhill from there....he was important to our midfield

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Nov 2012 17:22:11
Ed, please don't put this in Questions as no-one will see it. Any live streams for tonight? Would go to the game but live too far away. {Ed013's Note - Type in Ustream in search engine and search that site}

Rumor about Dorrans is surely one for once we are promoted. He's a class act in the Premiership and isn't going to drop a division even for a few months especially when WBA are flying high. One for the summer. Class player though. I'd love to see him along with Max, Killgallon and Campbell, Hooper and Austin arrive at the club.

Believable4 Unbelievable0

I made it up like the dawson rumour because rumour page was dead :( then every1 seemed to copy lol. Sorry

Not a rumour in the slightest, but Darren Bent? Perhaps? or am I getting starstudded by the fact we have actually been taken over! haha.

MOT
AntW

Believable4 Unbelievable12

Starstudded? darren bent probably one of the most over-rated English footballers there is, besides stuart downing and walcott

Agree7 Disagree0

He would get 40 a season in this league with the correct service.

Agree3 Disagree3

Downing waste of time, walcott class

Agree7 Disagree1

What that over-rated darren bent who when he's fit plays up front anlonside rooney for england and scores 30 a season for club?? not the best of times at villa but every where else be has been is prolific. walcott is class when he turns up, all i need to say is wallcott v croatia and walcott v barcelona! stuart downing a complete flop like the rest of the over-expensive, over-paid liverpool team!

Agree2 Disagree2

The same Darren bent that gets 30 a year in the prem. maybe if we all put him on a Xmas list and we are all very very good. Haha. Cm84

Agree2 Disagree2

Youve mentioned 2 of walcotts good games out of about 200+ in his career there lol and Bent, very good at charlton, terrible at spurs, ok for Sunderland, poor for Villa, he barely even starts these days, what does that tell you, and about England, Rooney is over-rated aswell, people say hes one of the best strikers in the world, i disagree, i cant stand his baby-like antics and paddy fits when nothing goes his way

Being down south means I very rarely get to any home games, not to mention the financial aspect of it all, however IF I was in a position where I could attend home games I certainly wouldn't be letting some old frosted beard chap stop me from going, fans need to realise you still need to support your club, your team when they are out on that pitch regardless of who is in charge, protest if you wish but still turn up. The support of the team on match days at Elland Road used to be why teams never liked coming here, now we get ridiculed due to lack of support/attendance. Things are hopefully now turning around for the better, so to all that are within close enough proximity and have the finances to go, please turn up and make Elland Road the fortress it once was. And if you needed anymore reason to go tonight do it for Gary Speed, he deserves it even if Bates doesn't. Although due to geographical reasons I won't be there tonight, I shall be giving my 1 minutes applause at 7:44pm from my own living room. MOT SussexLeeds

So if nw has an 8 million pound transfer kitty here r my signings

tate cb
thomas lm
mcgugan cm
foley rb
pope st

leaving team like this
kenny
foley pearce lees tate
Diouf austin thomas
mcgugan
becchoo mccormack

subs ashdown white byram hall green norris pope

Believable0 Unbelievable17

So your NW for the day with 8m to spend.......

Firstly, you one of our best prospects in Byram on the bench!?

And then you buy with your allocated transfer funds "Pope" for the bench, you have also forgot to mention R Hall transfer, do you extend his loan or buy him, his he part of your 8m?
I am so glad your not our manager with management like that we would soon be back in league 1.

Agree5 Disagree2

You cant leave byram out of this team

Agree10 Disagree1

Byram on the bench.... are you insane, by far our best player this season and may prove to be the player of the season.

also why buy Pope to stick him on bench?? If we bring in a striker I would like it to be a starting XI regular

Agree5 Disagree0

Well its better than the unrealistic crap others come out with on here.. they think were signing bleeding messi.. No I wouldnt buy Pope to sit on the bench but I would as a bench player and come on and change the game. How is the starting eleven that I put out on this page be in League 1.. Maybe we should be glad ure not the manager.
Players dont just get bought and come straight into the team u have to earn the right and when they do they play full time. Byram is still too young to play every game and I think he will burn out by the end of the season. But byram woulod be used as impact for his pace down the right. I think I know wot im talking about so come on here and slate someone for being realistic. Name your team and how u would spend the 8 million and play all these players in a position.

Agree1 Disagree8

I wouldnt want to sign "bleeding Messi" as he'd probably be dead in a few hours

LufcJay

Agree2 Disagree0

GFH could buy 8 million Lottery Tickets and chance their luck instead.

Agree2 Disagree0

Couple of flaws in your argument, didnt thomas and tate go straight into the team saturday, and you have tate at left back, he's cd, and i agree byram should start, don't agree with all this burn out crap

Agree0 Disagree1

Or get another decent versetile LB/RB and rotate peltier,byram, tate if we get another CB in jan, then bleed them all in byram and pelt's seem to be burned out now they need a rest!

Agree0 Disagree0

I would spend the money on fraulin and gradel and sign up the loan signings my team would be....kenny byram Tate lees drury .....hall fraulin Austin gradel ....bechio mcormack on bench....ashdown pearce green Norris diouf .....that has promotion written all over it !

Agree0 Disagree0

Well maybe u should try being manager then.. Believe me I know how tired young players get. NoNo i think u also find that Tate is a rb cb n lb he can play in all positions. I got that from the official site. Warnock said he could play all over the back 4. No but pope isnt good enough to come straight into the team. He needs to work his way in first. Thomas was in for a reason his pace and he is a loan signing meaning basically he has to play. If we buy players then its different. Pope wouldnt cost anymore than 400k anyhow. so would u drop mccormack and becchio to play him. u all say we need another striker but u all want stupid players. Ive just read something ridiculous about darren bent coming. my god his wages alone would be stupid. Im bein a realist with wages and fees. But stuff it cos in January were signing

Iniesta
puyol
ronaldo
messi
silva

Agree1 Disagree0

Now you're being silly, point about tate is that though he can play anywhere across the back his best position is cd, so that is where i would play him,and maybe go for charlie austin or CMS

Agree0 Disagree0

Me because i dont like the fact he killed himself. I feel sorry for his kids and have no respect for him whatsoever #selfishperson

What a k**b, so if one of your family did the same you would have no respect fro them, im sure his family would love hearing this sort of garbage

Agree3 Disagree2

Id be rather pi$$ed if my family member decided his/her was t worth living so in answer to your question yes i would lose massive respect for them because they clearly thought of no1 but themselves. Could you personally say you could commit harry carry knowing your kids/wife would be in bits ? Bang out of order is MY PERSONAL OPINION, but out of respect i admit i shouldnt of commented so sorry for that

Agree3 Disagree0

The thing you're missing is that no one knows why he did it, theres always a reason, usually a cry for help, and i speak from experience in my family

Agree1 Disagree0

I feel sorry for his family but you dont know what can push a poor guy over the edge, nobody will know the reason why except for Gary Speed himself
