Cant stand wilder, but just watched his interview after match and fair play to him he was honest enough.
1.) 19 Oct 2024 11:10:16
Yep his team got smacked up so baaad. he seems to have sucked out his belligerent bs.
2.) 19 Oct 2024 15:17:03
He was actually very gracious.
3.) 19 Oct 2024 17:40:12
He was gracious on the surface and I fully admit Wilder would have been dammed if he did and damned if he didn’t praise us after that win.
But the praise still had some backhanded comments like “they should have gone up last year” and “their own sporting director confirmed Leeds pay the largest wages in the division”
Cannot stand the bloke, just in case that wasn’t clear.

If Harry Wilson is all we can get then this transfer window has been a failure, no playmaker and no striker, the players we have need to step up now.
1.) 02 Sep 2025 22:18:29
How are very average players who a number of them are not even premiership level going to step up for another 35 games?
We are out of our league.
2.) 03 Sep 2025 06:27:50
Well OP, these are the same players that have got 4 points from 3, nothing has been detracted just not added as we would have wished. Think they have shown so far they are prem standard and I think they will improve the more they play, takes time to integrate and adjust. As Chris said a little while ago it's these next few games where points can be won and we will know a lot more by mid/ late October. Its going to be a task but by no means forlorn. Keep the faith in our boys, MOT.

We'll see today if lessons were learned from the first two games, do we have plan c today, personally think recruitment has been average, its been glaringly obvious for two years we need a good no 10 and a top class striker, those positions should have been filled first.

People talk about doom mongers, leeds played arsenal, bielsa as manager we were in championship at the time, and battered them in the first half, granted lost the game but it wasn't 5-0, it's all about coaching and belief, neither of which was apparent against arsenal.
1.) 25 Aug 2025 23:23:44
That Arsenal was not the same level as the current one. They finished with 56 points that season. (8th) , 33 points behind Liverpool.
Mes, had one his best games that night.
2.) 26 Aug 2025 00:34:45
Whatever happened to the euphoria of winning the league last season and becoming a Premier League Club? 2 games in and the plot has been lost!
As for the post that our chairman Parag is clueless by LLF, well that’s ludicrous in itself!
We seem to be back to sack DF, sack the board and our transfer window has been crap!
I’m 100% with Staffs White on this one, doom and gloom is not good, opposing opinions and debates is great, but not the other, it’s going to be a long long season on here if we are going back to those negative dire posts again!
We should be embracing the leap up into the elite league and the potential for growing into a premiership regular, it is NOT going to happen straight away, our aim was to avoid relegation yet some on here are behaving like we wanted to win the bloody league!
Go online and listen to what we were singing while being 4-0 then 5-0 down and £200 down, we didn’t start singing sack DF, sack the board, oh no we kept on right till the end singing for our team!
ALAW MOT ALWAYS ??.

Spot on Woody.
4.) 26 Aug 2025 08:35:46
Bang on Woody ? The fact is, we will lose many more games this season than last season, and to think otherwise is misguided in my opinion.
We are in the Premier League and that is fantastic, what we all wanted, so let’s enjoy the ups and downs without the ‘End of the World’ scenario being played out every time we lose.
I think the window has been a great one, and I think a couple more this week will cement a squad good enough to compete and stay in the league.
If in November we are losing every week, and against teams we believe we should be competing against, then I will understand people calling for change, but not after 2 games and 1 defeat, against arguably one the best 2 teams in the league and probably top 5 teams in Europe!
5.) 26 Aug 2025 08:39:11
Putting aside the score, the defensive stats weren't too bad but Arsenal's offensive stats were far ahead of ours. Forward passes, accuracy, etc. They had five on target shots and scored from them all.
The recruitment we've made has imoroved the squad but one problem that hasn't been resolved is up front. DCL and Nmecha have added depth if they stay fit but we still miss that top class striker and playmaker. Hopefully that will be resolved this week.
As Woodster pointed out, we're not going to win the league or even finish in the European slots. This year is about staying up, consolidating our Premier League status and building on it. One defeat to a good Arsenal team won't define the season. What we need to do is worry less about the current elite and take points off those teams who are likely to be around us at the end of the season-Burnley, S/ land, Wolves, West H, Brighton, Brentford, etc. it's results against them that will define our season.
6.) 26 Aug 2025 08:58:50
On the nose Woodster!
7.) 26 Aug 2025 09:34:30
I don’t think any of us apart from vid expected to win. And it’s 100% right to focus on taking points off those that will be around us.
It was the manner of the defeat, the selection and the subs.
I for one think we coulda done a better job. Coulda played better.
8.) 26 Aug 2025 10:00:09
I do agree Aus, I questioned Gruev ahead of Longstaff, Pascal ahead of Bijol and Piroe ahead of Nmecha due to the size of their back 4.
I hope and believe these selection questions will be ironed out over the coming games and will have the right team on the pitch.
9.) 26 Aug 2025 10:44:42
Hopefully lessons are being taken on board and perhaps tonight DF might experiment with the line up, as SW aren't in the best of nick and give us a bit of leeway in terms of personnel and tactics.
Personally, I'd like to start Bijol alongside Rodon, as I presume they are going to be our first choice CB pairing. JB and GG at full back, as GG needs plenty of minutes to acclimatise.
Give Longstaff the nod in CM, with Ao and Anton either side.
Up top, I'd go for Okafor and Willy either side of Nmecha.
Calvert Lewin and Justin to debut from the bench, along with Gruev, Gray, James, Piroe, Crew, Snowdon, Byram and Darlow.
Wednesday fans are supposed to be boycotting the game in protest at the owner, so maybe our away fans could show some solidarity with our Yorkshire brethren, as if anyone knows about having odious owners, it's us!
And we're, All Yorkshire Aren't We?! ;-)
MOT.
10.) 26 Aug 2025 11:19:05
I agree with lots in there Ady!
I'd hope that Leeds fans at the match do dish it out to the Wendy Board. Their running of that club, as it has been with ourselves at times, has been utterly disgraceful. In this instance, it's definitely All Yorkshire Aren't We!?
03 May 2025 15:59:50
Job done, enjoy the moment and celebrate, tomorrow hopefully the hard work starts again, recruitment will be vitally important this summer, enjoyed watching this season some great performances some a hard watch but we are up.
1.) 03 May 2025 16:19:29
100 points huge goal difference. Most goals scored and most entertaining team!
What’s been hard to watch? Best season since we win the leauge in 91/ 92.
2.) 03 May 2025 16:45:31
The games we played crap, and lost against average teams were a hard watch.
26 Apr 2025 17:18:08
Re farke, has his faults but you can't deny he did a good job this season got us promoted, got to back him big style with better players, his players, spend the money see where we are come christmas.
1.) 26 Apr 2025 18:37:39
To play devil's advocate, why do we have to back him?
Not discrediting his achievements, just out of interest.
2.) 26 Apr 2025 19:14:40
Indeed. MOTagain
On a separate note . well done Crystal Palace . direct, pace, power, athletic, shoot on sight superb performance.
3.) 26 Apr 2025 19:23:19
If they don't back him ,we'll be back in championship season after next.
4.) 26 Apr 2025 20:54:25
May I ask why?
Genuine conversation.
I understand not changing a manager during the season, but before hand?
26 Aug 2025 19:01:39
Hope so.
30 May 2025 14:41:59
Hope we swerve both of em tbh.
09 Aug 2025 18:59:35
Have to agree needed a striker and no 10 for two years needs sorting before season starts.
08 May 2025 10:11:42
Need better than firpo granted good season, but not good enough defensively for me.

Piroe won't get five goals in prem, meslier not good enough for prem add firpo rodon aaronsen bamford and joseph to the list.
