Happy New Year to everyone. Leeds United 2018 . it might be you! January Sales. Gary Madine gives everything every game.

It kinda agree with both trains of thought on here. I think that we should be happy that we are 5th at this time of season, however, watching some of the games, it does feel as If we do, as one of you guys phrased it, flatter to deceive. We at times play truly woefully, but come out ok because of luck or the other team beating us in the, "who can play crappest" competition. I hope that they have 2 or 3 new faces lined up, as i do not foresee us staying in the playoffs for another month if not. We have some touches ahead and our performances recently wouldn't produce points against them. Forest sacking their manager makes tomorrow all the more unpredictable. Anyhow, as i have said before, I rate Radz and trust his judgement. All will be well. Onwards n upwards!

LUFC, absolutely correct, great post mate.

31 Dec 2017 14:22:52
Dont trust tc. Lightweight. i'm officially. Out tc camp now. Bye bye.

31 Dec 2017 14:25:46
We never do well against teams who've just sacked their manager. 😩

31 Dec 2017 15:01:00
LUFC agreed mate, Ito have worries about tomorrow’s game, NF will have there stand in manager and they will play hard to win the game and if we turn up like the last two games the it won't be long before we will not be top 6. Still look for a positive response with a 3-1 win. Well I can hope 😆.

I think its about time we stop taking a game at a time.

31 Dec 2017 16:00:13
Keep quiet Brighty. It's going to be hard enough without you giving owners ideas. There will now be a flood of sackings now before our games. You know they will do anything to keep us in this league and guarantee full capacity games.

31 Dec 2017 17:21:33
Ausman1 I have had concerns from the start, what we brought was not right for this league, so down to one game at a time and I have hope, things have to change, I know who I would like as a manger but I not Raz so T C will have to do until he see what some see not all but some.

Even the forum family seem to be split on the state of Leeds United. Getting beaten is never good enough, sitting fifth at Christmas is acceptable. All teams win matches that they don't deserve or even are lucky to scrape a draw in the 93rd minute, that's football. What won't be acceptable is to watch a team not trying and to go on a run of several defeats. So far neither of these has happened. We are not plummeting down the league. Granted we are not sitting 10 points clear of all other teams but we do not have limitless resources. Some of us sound like citizens of a country that's just had a revolution and wake up the following morning expecting prosperity today. Wondering why we all don't own a new car and a mansion. Let's not fall into the "success immediately" trap and back Radz to deliver a strong x year plan. He/TC may not get everything right. We may not win every game but we are a lot better off than many and slowly moving in the right direction. Whether we buy, who we buy, when we buy is all good debating fodder but ultimately must be left to those who know. We cannot all manage Leeds United at once think what carnage that would bring. So let's just bite the bullet have faith and march on TOGETHER. We are Leeds - all of us, everyone far and wide who are sad when we lose, are happy when we win. Whether having the good fortune to have been blessed with over 50 years of pain and joy or have just seen the light this season. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

You are deluded
We haven't a run of defeats. Are you even human?

31 Dec 2017 15:26:53
Leodie, did you go to any of the last two games clearly not yesterday we did not fight we looked rubbish, better football play down the local park we have nothing to offer and had no back bone at all call it fortunes to be blessed I don’t, I can take losing but what I can’t is not fighting and if this continues then it won’t be long before we are as you say dropping out,

31 Dec 2017 16:15:35
Agree white man, I was at the game and we never even had a 5 minute spell out of the 90.the set up of the team and tc's reasoning for it baffled me the most. to go to bottom of the league and set up defensively against a team that really struggles to score goals was naive to say the least.

31 Dec 2017 17:25:35
Leeeeeeeds wasn’t good mate was it, felt crap all the way home, what am I doing, good post anywa

I’m with Whiteman, Martyn, Mezzer and a few others on here, it’s not about where we are Lucas, although I do agree 5th ace is great, even more amazing considering how we are performing! It’s about how we are playing, we look disjointed, no cohesion and we look like we have lost the will to play! We need to boost our attack, freshen up that stagnant midfield and sort the left side out, also we need a commanding goalkeeper because Félix is to quiet and to nervous! Why can’t keepers catch the ball nowadays! Orta needs to get on and do his work by getting players for today and not tomorrow and TC needs to be more assertive with his players and tell them to start playing for that badge! Just think we are 5th, just imagine what can be achieved when we start playing how we should be! MOT

Can we not have thumbs down without an opinion. Its ok to not agree. But say why!

31 Dec 2017 15:48:53
Is it not ok to just disagree

31 Dec 2017 17:28:14
Ausman up or down makes no difference, some can see some can’t, time will tell. go with the flow,

31 Dec 2017 09:58:35
Terrible performance yesterday but not all bad. We are still in a decent position and well placed to push on if we right the wrongs.

31 Dec 2017 10:14:23
Well said alf, I had to check the league tables to see whereabouts we are at the moment. It's a relief to see we're 5 from top, looking at some of these posts I was thinking we were 5 from bottom ! ! ! Cheer up all you doom n gloomers, win 4 lose 1 will do for me :)

31 Dec 2017 12:15:06
12 points from 15 is not great. Wonder what if were playing super football and lost 4 out of 5. Would they say ah at least we're playing well

31 Dec 2017 12:27:47
Let's hope that the team can maintain this record during tough fixtures in January and February. Then you point will be spot on.

31 Dec 2017 03:46:16
Didnt see game and glad i didnt. Reality is. At present we are not good enough. We may make playoffs as we are, but doubtful. So. Do we spend in january and pay over the top prices and buy the 3-4 players we need or take a gamble? i'm hoping rad and tc are smart enough to know that we have not quite enough talent to go up. i'm also hoping that tc gets smarter with his team selection. Play around with it in fa cup not the league ffs! I have to be honest. i'm begining to wonder if he is good enough manager for prem and if he is capable of getting this team to step up and improve.

Agreed aus.

31 Dec 2017 10:07:30
Ausman1 I agree with that as well.
