We're a newly promoted team holding off one of the big six while a ref tried his hardest to give them the game.
We made a few mistakes, but going toe-t-toe with the big guns is good to see.
We can't win them all and we were strapped by lack of attacking options.
I've defended arronson in the past but he was pretty poor today. Gave the ball away too many times.
Bogle RW and JJ RB if James/ Gnonto aren't played.
Yes it was another frustrating game we SHOULD have won. But you know? That we're even talking about how we should have won against the top dogs is some place to be. Certainly beats getting steamrolled in every game.

Exactly mate well said reasons to be cheerful.
04 Oct 2025 17:23:40
Agree Mo, Brendan was poor esp after the break.
I said to the Mrs to put Bogle right wing and Justin at RB .
Don’t think Struijk covered himself in glory either, time to get Bijol a start.
Yes we’ve arguably been the best team in the last 2 games but ultimately we’ve taken 1 point from 6.
Individual mistakes get punished at this level.
04 Oct 2025 17:53:57
Struijk not at fault for 2nd goal, it was Gudmonsson who messed up.
Two unlucky deflections today. His passing was a lot better than last game.
Bijol has only played once and was poor, hopefully when needed that wasn't a fair reflection of his ability.
04 Oct 2025 17:59:09
Best thing is we are talking fine margins. While that is frustrating that is promising and makes me think we are not relegation fodder.
I remeber not too long ago when we was getting thrashed every week and the margined were far from fine, that’s when we need to worry.
04 Oct 2025 18:01:01
Dave you said that to your Mrs. I’ve been harping on here for weeks now about moving JB into right advanced position and JJ into right back. Clearly DF doesn’t read our posts. I like pascal but was he just unlucky not blocking both or one of their goals, or is it that he is lacking in agility and speed? Am I the only one who thinks Rodon missed a complete sitter? I know that the keeper came out flapping, but keep your eye on the ball and it’s an open goal. Same with DCL’s missed chances last week, if we give opposition those chances, including Rodon’s missed header today, they always seem to put them away.
04 Oct 2025 18:12:05
Absolutely MoT, frustrating, but we are holding our own against some very good teams (excluding the Arsenal game)
04 Oct 2025 15:23:19
It’s strange that we paid up Pats contract, did not resign Manor bought two extra centre backs, and obviously do not think Joel is good enough to lead, and DCL is clearly short of confidence in front of goal.
That aside, probably could not ask more in terms of effort from the boys today, and we gave them one hell of a game, two deflections and with the likes of Kudus they just that little bit more in terms of quality in their squad just now, not surprising given our relevant recent histories.
If we can play to that level every week then I see us being more than safe this season, but hopefully we can uncover a goal scoring rough diamond in January (there’s some in the championship) as it would be very welcome.
Obviously my brother is gloating from his holiday in Portugal but so a Spuds season ticket holder just said Bournemouth and ourselves were far and away spuds toughest opponents season to date.
Much to be positive about for me.

Very well said mate as always. I fully agree.
One thing on. bamford though, I love him but he didn’t score for over a year in the best team in championship he was never a prem striker now.
Dcl scored one already linking up play, making good runs and causing a nounsense of himself
Let’s not write dcl off yet and let’s not forget how bad bamford was recently.
04 Oct 2025 16:32:28
Wasn’t saying keep bam bam Berm, thought we could have sold bam bam, Piroe, even Largir and not signed Bornauw and put all eggs in basket for a top striker but appreciate it’s easier said than done especially Patrick’s salary and isn’t it easy in hindsight.
I’d go after Hagi Wright in January if Coventry willing to sell think he’s capable at higher level and reminds me of Watkins at Villa.
Thomas-Asante or Monga great wide options too imo.
04 Oct 2025 17:15:22
Good options there Class but can’t see Cov offloading them players in particular as they are bang on course for the title and promotion the way they are going currently.
04 Oct 2025 17:22:57
Fair class can’t argue with any of that. Good post and well said.
04 Oct 2025 17:50:48
Oh it’s a Hail Mary long shot OP, but a £10 million offer would be tempting for Coventry and Wright would definitely want the opportunity, I believe.
It’s happened to us enough times.
04 Oct 2025 18:04:39
Was watching game today me and my good mate Robbo sadly not at church both Wakey lads!
He said Paddy would of got a goal today he's usually the Lord Bamford hater!
We deserved a point today. Darlows face was a peach when he couldn't reach that ball. Up The Whites Down The Pints.
04 Oct 2025 18:13:21
Come Jan we will buy.
04 Oct 2025 14:46:12
Do we really have Lewin on payroll for 3 years at £12K a week - beginning to see how he became a free.

04 Oct 2025 15:01:29
Sorry, that’s £120K.
04 Oct 2025 15:22:36
Try £100k a week!
04 Oct 2025 14:37:41
Tough one to take today.
Spurs have a squad miles better than ours.
We’ve pushed them all the way today, we all know we lack quality in the final 3rd.
That’s the only real difference between the teams today, Struijk has to do better for both goals, maybe time to start Bijol after the international break.
I kind of get the frustration with DCL, but neither Nmecha or Piroe would get those chances as neither would be in those positions.
2 deflections = 2 goals but those are the margins in this league.
We need a win again soon just to pick the lads up.

04 Oct 2025 14:50:22
Piroe would bury convinces lol. Easy peezy. Get rid of him .
They were better and beat us. Simple.
But.
We coulda won that.
04 Oct 2025 15:52:28
Agree Dave I think darlow at struijk at fault last two games maybe time to rotate.
04 Oct 2025 14:34:25
Completely out managed and out played second half.
That's like clueless what to do.
DO NOT take off your worst players. Keep them on whole game.
TAKE OFF your goal scorer.
And jj for Bogle U kidding me.
What you reckon berm. Logical subs?

I think after a long unbeaten run at home after selling 120 million pounds worth of players and going on our best ever season in the championship you got no right questioning a manager for losing in a close flight game against spurs
I think you should just pack it in and go on another site . I think your moaning has no place on a leeds forum but that’s just my opinion.
04 Oct 2025 15:51:04
Yup. That's just prattling nonsense, and not like the old Aus sadly. Can't even deduce what point you're trying to make? And why only address Bermo? Very Bazesque, and suitably lacking in integrity styleee.
04 Oct 2025 17:23:40
Cheers bright well said and I do agree.
04 Oct 2025 14:30:33
Great undefeated home record gone but we have a decent account today against a good team.
If after we sold 120 million pounds worth of players you’d of told me we go on a great unbeaten home run before losing in the prem I’d of bite your hand off
If you then told me people might moan at the end of the run. Ungreatful and idiots might be words that spring to mind.

How much we buy berm.
Shoulda spent the pennies on a decent manager.
04 Oct 2025 15:01:47
Laughable, well I’d laugh if I didn’t find your comments so sad. My heartfelt feelings go out to you. Someone give the fella a hug.

Welcome back baz, could of picked a less obvious name.
04 Oct 2025 14:10:36
At last. Sub at best. Absolute waste of money. I can’t believe a professional outfit can be so useless. To sign him
Desperation 101.
04 Oct 2025 14:18:41
Waste of money? Free transfer
If only we had 127 million to spend on isaka or 100 million to spend on Newcastle bloke.
04 Oct 2025 14:54:04
See the likes berm? Way out numbered. Drongo.
04 Oct 2025 16:10:53
Don’t know what drongo means, I adobo speak Aussie my family were successful criminals and didn’t get caught… well apart from one 6 stretch.
04 Oct 2025 17:49:41
The Irony is Aus, that those "likes" are likely to be from the minority support that also liked the soon forgotten gruesome twosome's posts.
04 Oct 2025 18:00:30
Thank you bright I honestly really appreciate your support and I agree fully.
04 Oct 2025 13:39:53
Get him off. Worse than bam.

Obviously watching the wall game however a knowledgeable leeds fan passed this on to me.
Spurs good team and great manager but we more than held our own and probably the better team
Nothing new to add that’s over not already said this season other than Aaronson growing each game. Good today and starting to justify his place
Works hard wins a lot of free kicks and could of had three assists already
Proud of that display
Come on the wall! Miillllllllllllll.

Don’t get any of that berm.
04 Oct 2025 15:00:35
Me neither, utter tosh regarding Brenda!
04 Oct 2025 16:12:18
2shed I though aarson did well today, got the assist, won a lot of free kicks, nearly got a second assist and worked hard. He isn’t great by any means but decent and not worthy of getting slated.
04 Oct 2025 16:31:51
Nah not having that, Brittle Brenda spends too much time on the deck, my grand daughter could tackle him and she's only 4yrs old.
He should be warming the bench at best, he makes me so angry.
04 Oct 2025 17:24:22
Fair enough sheds.
04 Oct 2025 17:52:07
Your "wise" Leeds fan said exactly what I said at half time, in a very empty live chat! Come back everyone!
04 Oct 2025 13:22:15
Struik again and again.
Calbamford drop please.
The rest. Good. Happy with endeavour and spirit. Okafor getting better and better. Gab long and all tbh. Good stuff.
