Leeds Banter 2

That hair pull dive from Cucurella is the main reason he is my most hated player! Proper cheat!

26 Apr 2026 15:58:31
Agree, Bright. Time to issue a red card for simulation in circumstances like that.
Let's hope we show something in the second half, as we've been pedestrian this half. In a lot of matches this season, I've always fancied us to come back into the game, but I'm struggling to see or feel it today, although I hope I'm wrong.

Is that Darlow in goal. 🤔

26 Apr 2026 13:06:20
Of course I pray for a win but my bottom line wish for today is - no injuries!

26 Apr 2026 12:37:19
Well, i dunno how the boys are feeling, but i am on me third pair of boxers.

On a slight side note, Newcastle, Palace, Burnley and Wolves are (points wise) the only teams with nothing really to play for with only 4 games to go however I believe Scott Parker is playing for his future as is Eddie Howe. Wolves will be wanting to take some momentum into the Championship and Glasner will want to leave on a high, meaning with 4 games remaining there currently isn't any dead rubber games which is going to be difficult for any teams to get easy points.

To think, Leeds United would and should have been above both Sunderland and Newcastle if we had rightfully beaten/drawn with them in our 2026 fixtures.

Then it would have been Leeds United lads on the beach in the league.

And fully focussed on winning the FA Cup.

And, if all the other clubs had got the results they thought they deserved, and didn't get the results they didn't deserve, the league table would tell a completely different story. It's not only us who have deserved more from some games, and less from others. 🤦‍♂️

26 Apr 2026 12:11:20
Point remains.. we should have been on beach. ⛱️

26 Apr 2026 12:51:58
Got to agree with Baz. I just hope we do not come to regret the draws where we just could not hold on.

26 Apr 2026 15:02:36
Even Palace still have a theoretical chance of getting to the European places, lad, but realistically they and most other teams from 10th down have little chance of doing that. There was a rumour going round yesterday that Sunderland are considering sacking Le Bris if they fail to qualify for Europe - unbelievable!

26 Apr 2026 17:11:41
I was referring solely to the 2 games Baz mentioned.

Happy Sunday siblings. So the White Knights once again ride into town, as others have said let's hope for a performance that makes us proud, regardless the result, though I am confident and ain't cashed me bet out. 😆😅 Enjoy and be safe wherever you worship today. UTWDTP to writing more history. Up and at 'em boys from the off.

Just got Radio Leeds on there, saying Wembley Way is awash with Leeds colours. Hardly any Chelsea!
Up The Whites Down The Pints. 🤍💙💛

26 Apr 2026 11:35:37
Leeds United fans taking over Wembley.. Love it.

26 Apr 2026 10:05:10
It's all about today chaps, gutted I couldn't get my hands on ticket but this is life. I hope Bogle is fit as Rodon looked way off the pace the other night. I have a sneaky suspicion Stach is going to be involved, maybe wishful thinking but really think we could do with him even just for his free kicks alone.

Just really hope we should up and give a good account of ourselves. I haven't looked for to a match like this in a long time 🙏.

26 Apr 2026 10:26:15
Think, based on Tanaka's form, I'd prefer to leave him in over a potentially below-par Stach. Rodon was poor when coming on, and that's what I'd fear from Stach.

Unless Rodon has been exceptional in training, I think I'd leave him out too. Some believe Struijk had his best game recently, and Jaka is currently in good form. We offer more attacking threat when Bogle plays RWB over Justin, but for me Justin plays over Bogle, meaning I'd stick with the same back 5 and leave Rodon out (who usually is our best defender) .



Perri in goal.

DCL up top, with Okafor and BA off him.

Not today, but I'd ideally like to see Tanaka replace BA in that engine room, as I don't think Stach is fit enough for it. It leaves room for Amps and Stach to play behind.

26 Apr 2026 11:10:45
Bogle was shocking other day, lads. 🤍💛💙

26 Apr 2026 11:14:58
Tanaka has been excellent the last few games, but his dead-ball deliveries have been poor. I just think if Stach is anyway fit, it is worth a gamble for dead-ball deliveries alone. Rodon, if fully fit, would be my first on the team sheet, but he looked slow and rusty the last game.



Struijk has been immense lately. I know a few on here can't stand him, but he has been more than dependable of late.

Whoever Farke picks will hopefully just give it their all, that's all we can really ask for.

26 Apr 2026 11:36:43
Definitely start the same outfield players .. Rodon and Stach on the bench.

26 Apr 2026 06:23:59
Big day today. Hope everyone going enjoys it regardless the result but of course I am hoping we get a result and go marching on. Mostly just hope our performance does us justice.

26 Apr 2026 09:43:21
Well said Alf, I'm feeling so confident, and to all those who know my prediction track record, I can only apologise, but to everyone, have a brilliant day. Who knows when this occasion will come around again, so enjoy every moment.

26 Apr 2026 10:49:22
Lol, Class! Agreed, both. For those there, hope you have a great day irrespective of outcome, and for the rest of us plebs, let's just make the best of it too! MOT!

26 Apr 2026 11:39:42
Yep, defo come what may, enjoyyy the experience... It's been far, far too long since Leeds United experienced genuine FA Cup excitement.

Confident of a Leeds United win.

26 Apr 2026 02:30:58
It seems optimism doesn't suit me. Predicting Wolves and Everton wins. Not happy. Getting nervous again. Spam seem to have the harder games though.
