[LU] Warnock talking a good game
3 great things here 1. Snoddy going to be our main ma 2. Keeping 2 men up when we defend corners - love this 3. Players going to go through brick walls for us. Like most (everyone?) I disliked him prior to Saturday but as I said to my wife (who is calling me a hypocrite and turn coat for now saying good things about him) this is probably the first time I have actually listened or read what he says , rather than the odd complaint about refs etc, and he is really winning me over. I do hope he can walk the walk Dave Speaking exclusively to the Yorkshire Post yesterday in his new office at Thorp Arch, Warnock said: “When you play against good teams, they put two men on Robert Snodgrass. “I would certainly do that if in charge of an opposing team against Leeds. You can mark him out of the game on the wing. “The difference with the role I asked him to play in the second half is you can’t mark him. “The second goal, when he crossed from wide on the left (for Adam Clayton to score), proved that. Doncaster couldn’t pick him up in time. “Snodgrass is a player who can do anything. He creates goals, he scores goals and he gives defenders a hard time. I want him on the ball as much as anyone. “I remember his performance against QPR (last Christmas when Leeds beat Warnock’s side 2-0) was outstanding. That is how I see him. “What I also want to see is a situation where three out of the front four know they can interchange. That is what I love to see. I will be looking for a lot more of that in the coming weeks.” Warnock visited the United dressing room ahead of kick-off against Rovers but then planned to leave team matters to caretaker manager Neil Redfearn. That plan had to be shelved, however, as a poor Leeds display in the opening 45 minutes left Warnock knowing changes had to be made. He said: “It was really frustrating being in the stands. After 10 minutes, I was really wishing I had put my name down on the sheet to be able to be in the dugout as there was a space on it. “The little things were what I was desperate to change, maybe the ones the punters don’t notice. “For example, in the first half we defended a corner and (winger Andros) Townsend was inside our six-yard box. This meant we had one lad, (Ross) McCormack, up front with everyone else back. “I got hold of Townsend at half-time and said, ‘Who told you to go there on corners? I want you on the halfway line on one side and McCormack on the other’. That way the opposition have to bring three back, which is what happened. “When we did change things, I thought it worked a lot better. And that’s without the chance to show the lads a few things on the training ground. I expect us to be better at Portsmouth (next Saturday) and a lot better the week after against Southampton. We are going to be working hard over the next couple of weeks.” Along with handing Snodgrass a role similar to the one Adel Taarabt proved so devastating in as QPR romped to the Championship title last term, Warnock also envisages ditching the 4-4-2 formation United have employed in all but a handful of games this season. The new Leeds chief said: “The fans will have to trust me with formations as I am not convinced we can play 4-4-2 with the players we have got and expect to win games. “The main thing I can tell the fans is they can come to games knowing the players wearing the Leeds shirt will be willing to run through brick walls for 90 minutes. “There won’t be anyone putting a Leeds shirt on giving less than 100 per cent for 90 minutes under me, I can promise everyone that.” ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org PETE CASS (1962 - 2011) Rest In Peace Mate

After months of being thoroughly fed and not enjoying going to games - I've finally got some optimism! Let's hope Colin delivers. Looking forward to the Portsmouth game now.

Colin is indeed saying the right things, but then who wouldn't?Great Club, fantastic support, need a leader on the pitch, defence needs sorting out, get it up to the big man etc etc etc. Nothing he has said is any great surprise and words are easy, actions a bit more difficult. I'm holding back any judgement until he's actually done something - sorting out the defence for example. I'll be at the beginning of the Golden Age of Warnock at Pompey on Saturday, so lets see what happens.

Re: [LU] Warnock talking a good game
the media portrayal of him is of someone who is a motivator not a tactician. Although 7 promotions would indicate that there's more to him than just motivation. The way he treats players during a match reminds me of Martin O'Neill - he publicly shows his appreciation for a good job done, and players seem to respond positively, wanting to play for him.

Re: [LU] Talk is Cheap.
Rich that is why I picked on the Snoddy quotes and about forwards staying up at corners - that is good football sense, all the other 'big club' stuff is, as you say, very easy and is to be taken with a pinch of salt I aslo did say let's see if he can 'walk the walk' -an awful Yank-induced phrase I know - to show that I was still to be convinced but that he was sounding good Dave From: Richard Naef rich...@triumph-computers.co.uk Colin is indeed saying the right things, but then who wouldn't?

[LU] Hypocrisy litmus test
In my view (FWIW), the key test of whether we are hypocrites or not is whether we still call him Colin. For those who are concerned about the style we may be about to adopt, I happened to watch what was I think Colin's penultimate game in charge of QPR, away at Arsenal. They played some good stylish football, and with a bit of luck (specifically, if the otherwise superb Wright-Pillock had not weirdly passed the ball straight to Arshavin on the edge of their box), they could have come away with a draw or a win. ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org PETE CASS (1962 - 2011) Rest In Peace Mate

[LU] What I want to know is..........
who paid Warnock's expenses to whizz over to Monaco for an interview? (Sorry, er...Colin's expenses.) The answer is obvious, and I'd like to know why Leeds United have to shell out for something like that because our chairman is too dishonest to pay taxes like the rest of us. Apparently, there is a jolly photo somewhere of Bates, Harvey Warnock sitting in a bar in Monaco. I wonder how often the club has to pay Harvey's expenses to nip over there? ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org PETE CASS (1962 - 2011) Rest In Peace Mate

Re: [LU] What I want to know is..........
I wondered the same thing - LU should have paid but I wouldn't put it past Bates to have made Warnock stump up. Stop me if this has been on the list before. But given that the oft-quoted fortune of Bates is supposed to be 17M quid (plus or minus), it must cost him an awful lot more money being a tax-exile in MC than his tax liabilities would be in the UK(*). Does he have more money than people think? Does he just like MC (which I can understand)? Or is it just part of the Bates mystic that we all take at face value rather than looking behind the smoke and mirrors?

Re: [LU] LUST - 7min protest at Sants game
I agree entirely. I think that TRUST and unrest ensured the coming of Colin. But it's very unwise not to ' overdo' it. I would recommend an open letter expressing the spirit if your sentiments. Obviously MS will bluff bluster and bully but he blinked. I like the Warnpck appointment. Let's give him a free hand. Sent from my iPhone. Dr Michael Benjamin. Community Psychiatrist.
