Re: [LU] Wembkey bound
Looked (& sounded) bloody brilliant on the TV Dave! I was gutted I missed it due to leg surgery on Wednesday - first "major" game I've missed since I missed out on a Paris ticket in '75! :-( As a season ticket holder, I'll be eligible for a ticket (I guess?), but I'll be struggling to walk. I'm going to try to contact the club/ticket office to see if I can get some sort of "disabled" ticket but I'm not holding out much hope of getting there. Do people think I might get any joy from the club? Can't say I'm confident!

Re: [LU] Someone turn the lights off on the way out
I just feel sorry for everyone: The fans who've had to endure the last 7 or 8 games The players - as they obviously didn't want to finish the season like this, and Farke! If you'd have given him the impossible task (at the start of the season) to get 90 points, we wouldn't have thought it possible. But he did that. Any other year, we'd have been promoted. I'm not a fan of Leicester, but they redis their form when it mattered. And as for Ipswich, what an amazing couple of seasons they've had - congratulations. And now we head for the play offs, will we rediscover our form? Personally, I doubt it - but, you never know. Never say never. It all just seems a bit flat.

Re: [LU] Stoke
Yes! I do want us to go up! Surely, the whole point of having a pyramid system is that you want to get to the top! Otherwise, what's the point?? I want to see us on MOTD, and hear us talked about. Yes, we had our disappointments when we were there, but we also had some great moments. Won't we be better prepared this time? (IF we go up) With better investment from 49ers and previous experience? I think we will. We've got to strive to keep improving so we can challenge the top third - I want us to be fighting for a European/top 6 place in the next few years, not being a team that scrapes into playoffs and stays in the championship. (Plus I'm knocking on now and can't afford to wait another 14 - 15 years fro promotion like last time!!!) 藍 Be optimistic Robert! We can go up and not only survive, but improve!!

Re: [LU] Atmosphere
Agree with both of your reports Dave. I saw the moaning on Waccoe too, and one post really p'd me off. Some (young kid? Joined Waccoe in 2018) was moaning about the lack of atmosphere and the fact that there are two many over 60s in the crowd who can barely smile let alone create a "cauldron". Cheeky tw@t. I resisted the urge to respond as it would soon get into a slagging match. It was us "over 60s" that built Leeds' "reputation" that probably attracted people like him to go in the first place!

Nice one Dave. Spot on as per. After 50 mins I was miserable and thinking "what the hell am I doing here (again!)" I've watched MoD twice, the full match and this morning I'm still beaming.

I agree with Rich, playing 3 wingers, without any on the wing is ridiculous. Phillips (when he got a touch!) had no cross-field passing options - which is what he excelled at under Bielsa. I'm no tactician, but seeing the line-up - no-one sat around me could figure out what the hell the formation would be - and when we kicked off, neither did the players! Oh well, three points on Saturday (or even one?) - might be enough - but can we do that? Who knows, but here's hoping!

Re: [LU] LU: Unsackable ?
Totally agree with that Matt. I always thought with Bielsa, if we got the investment over the years we'd have a great chance of challenging at least the top 6, if not the top 4. Now, I'm worried that we'll just become another Everton, Spurs. Palace, etc and just hang on to Prem football playing "safe" boring football (That's IF we don't go down - if we do - I think we're even more fu*ked) Even if the new bloke proves me wrong, it will take me some time to get over the Bielsa sacking.

I'm absolutely gutted. Not only a shameful decision by Radrizzani but a wrong one in my opinion. I loved everything about Bielsa - we'll never see the like of him again.

Re: [LU] Arse
Yes - I agree with all your comments too Dave. I'm still amazed how much effort Forshaw puts in too, to say he's been out for nigh on 2 years. You'd never know! The crowd were (understandably!) quiet for a few small periods - mainly at 0-3, but overall I thought they were amazing! It's the first time in a long time I left the stadium with a hoarse voice - what was left of it. Losing 1-4 and hardly anyone left before the end, plus the 10 mins of "we all love Leeds" chant was brilliant. (compare that to the empty Newcastle stadium yesterday 10 mins before the end of their game!) After the Liverpool game we'll have played the top 4 on the trot, 3 of them away from home. Did we really expect any points? Especially with 9 out injured! If these games had been spread out I don't think it would seem quite so bad. Like others have said, the games against the bottom half of the table are more important to us. I'm still quietly confident we'll be okay. Can't say I'm looking forward to the Liverpool game though! I just hope it isn't another big hammering. Have we any players (other than Firpo) ready to come back? Merry Christmas everyone!

Re: [LU] Leeds 1 Watford 0
Yes - first half after the goal I thought we'd romp it. Last 20 mins were pretty nervy - it's never bloody easy!! Not a good sign when the crowd are whistling for the end with 5 or 6 mins left! Agreed, the jury is out on Rodrigo, and Dallas and Klich are not the players they were last season.

Re: [LU] West Brom addendum
Can't argue with any of that Dave - that's exactly how it was for us too, sat in the NE Upper. To us, as people were more spread out, there seemed more than 8000 there! Robert - no recognition of Alioski on the lap of honour. I don't think he's actually signed the contract for Galascum has he? Shame Kalvin's injury kept him away from the lap of honour as well.

Re: [LU] Decimalisation Day!
I remember going with my Dad in the Lowfields in the late 60s and he paid 7 and 6, I went in another (boys?) entrance lower down and paid 3 shillings. We met up on the other side of the turnstiles and we went to get our usual place near the halfway line. (I'm sure after '71 I still paid 15p to go in the boys entrance) We'd go in to the ground as soon as the gates opened (12-1ish?) to try and get a place against the wall so I could see. We also took a small wooden step/stool that my Dad made for me to stand on to get a better view. (A common thing in those days) No health & safety nonsense in those times!!!

Re: [LU] Leicester
Nice report Dave. Yes - for me the best performance of the season, and definitely the best result. It was, as you say, "Bielsa-ball" at its best! I loved the unselfishness of Bamford's pass to Harrison- not many strikers would have done that! Bamford's interview at the end was class too. He was my MoM.

Re: [LU] Bielsa
Where does Bielsa sit in the list? From where we were before he came to where we are now - it's unbelievable. Not many people would have moaned if we'd have got rid of Phillips, Cooper, Klich and maybe Dallas - but what he has done with those players is un-be-fucking-belevable. For me, I love everything about the man, his humility, his down to earth-ness - he's above O'Leary. I can't wait to see and witness his assault on the Premiership. All the years of watching shite - these last 2 years have veen so enjoyable - and now it's paid off. Bielsa is God.

Yes - it was a really good win, at home - especially after letting in late goals against Swansea and Derby. Although it was a tense last 30 minutes, it was a great match to watch and the atmosphere was top notch! WBA are the best side we've seen this season, and it seemed quite strange not to have the lion's share of possession - is that the first time under Bielsa? And listening to Bielsa's interview on the way home, he said the the Roberts substitution was tactical as their shape had changed after he came on and he needed to change things again. no reflection on Roberts himself. So maybe there is plan B! Ted H On Wed, 2 Oct 2019 at 09:00, John Lee via Leedslist wrote: > It was a good match Nick, and for the first time in a while I thought we’d > hold out at the back.

Re: [LU] Charlton
I really don't know what the answer is! We dominate games with great football (at times), but it just isn't going for us! I just think, more of the same and it might click. Other than spending millions in Jan (which we don't have), what is the answer? Saying that, these last 2 seasons have been a lot more entertaining than most of the previous 14 - and I suppose at the end of the day I pay to be entertained! So I'll just keep the faith and believe in Bielsa! (By the way, Man City's away kit?)

Once your TV is on the Firestick's home page, you just need to set it up by entering your WiFi password. ..and that's it really!

Sky Box Office Films), etc. You just navigate with your stick remote to whatever you want to watch and click it to play! it's not 100% perfect (sometimes it might freeze for a second or two) but generally it's very good (as long as you have decent Internet I suppose!) There's some decent providers out there! Some have LUTV on as well (mine unfortunately doesn't!) If you're on Facebook, there's a few good ones on the "Leeds Media" facebook account.

Re: [LU] Barnsley
I bought a "fully loaded" Amazon Firestick that had iPTV installed as well as iFollow (The EFL's football league TV coverage that covers every EFL game). I recently went on holiday to Croatia and just plugged my FireStick into the apartment's TV, entered the (local) WiFi password and it worked a treat! We watched the Leeds/Swansea game followed by the Luke Cambbell fight on it. I would recommend this option! It's also great for watching Leeds' away games now I can't seem to be able to get tickets anymore!

Re: [LU] January
Okay - in footballing terms, I often hear people say "they play average football" to describe the way a team plays all of the time. That's what I thought you were alluding to, not the true meaning of the word! So I concede.

Re: [LU] Blackburn - still buzzing
Great report Dave! Like you say - games like that make all the suffering worthwhile. I can't explain to a person who doesn't "get" football just what that last 5 minutes feels like, Unbelievable. The sheer joy when Roofe's header went in! I'm bloody 60 now and I was jumping around like my Grandkids on a sugar-rush! What a few days its been! I was lucky enough to be ringside in Manchester for Josh's win against Frampton - what an incredible performance! Then to get back to the pub on Sunday to see us come from 2 down to beat Villa at the death was just superb (plus I had a few quid on a JW/LUFC double at 7 to 1) - could it get any better? YES! To go down 2-1 in the 91st minute and to then get the win - I'm still buzzing now! Who'd have thought we'd be top, and 6 points clear of 3rd at Christmas! Happy days! Ted H p.s. I'm a Leeds fan though, and so have still got this "is it all going to go wrong" worm in my brain!

Re: [LU] I believe
Sometimes the world is a good place. I was lucky enough to be ringside for Josh's demolition of Frampton last night in Scumchester, I didn't think the Selby fight could be matched but that was pure, world level, class. Then today I watched my beloved Leeds (sadly today only TV) come back from 2-0 down to beat one of the divisions tipped sides to win 3-2. I can't remember, in recent history, a better sporting weekend. As an old bloke not much excites me these days but I'm absolutely buzzing today. Fu*king marvellous. Roll on Boxing Day. MOT Ted H p.s.

I said to my mates at the time - that was probably one of the best moves I've seen by a Leeds team over the last 14 years! Just brilliant. Such a shame it wasn't topped off with a goal.

Re: [LU] Bolton - a few thoughts
Yep - totally agree Rich.
Like you as well, I'd have Pontus in but he does annoy me how he goes down
so easy (for a big bloke) and stays down trying to get the foul. If I was
a big bloke like him I'd want to show that I wasn't hurt at all. Modern
players I guess.
Being a Leeds fan- I've still got his nagging doubt. We've been here
before playing the "pressing" game (under Christianson), although in
Bielsa's defence the opposition we've played has been slightly better than
last season. Will it last? Will teams suss us out? Will we run out of
steam? Is our squad good or fit enough to last?
On the plus side - it's entertaining!!! And that's what I pays me money
for.
Also, I heard yesterday that 3 wins at the beginning of the season is the
best we've done since Armfield's days - can that be right?!?!?!

Re: [LU] 31 years ago
Nice one Dave. About 10 of us went in a tranny van, we stopped somewhere in Brum & 2 lads nipped out for a pi*s, police appeared from nowhere and nicked 'em. The police told us to ring the station after match to collect them A copper then climbed in the back of our van and emptied bottles of beer all over the floor - great - we had to perch from then on to avoid getting soaked. Like you say, Shezza's goal gave us a few minutes of joy. After game we found massive "estate" pub somewhere in Brum so we could use the phone. Eventually police told us our mates had been released. The pub started to fill up with locals who "took a dislike" to us - after a bit of argy-bargy we had to make a hasty exit, just getting away in our van. The next day we learned that our 2 mates were still being held when we had rung. They were released at 2am in Brum city centre with no money or coats - not good when one of them had a Leeds shirt on - they had to hide until it got light and then hitch home! Happy days...

Re: [LU] Norwich
Is PH any better than the Hock?
He left Barnsley perilously close to the drop, in fact they may not escape
it, and if the season was a month longer he'd take us down.
Not looking forward to next season with him in charge. Get rid after next
Sunday for me.
