Re: [LU] Ipswich
That was bloody awful. Kemar Roofe’s performance was shocking and it was no surprise when he skied the pen. What the hell was that run up all about. I fear for us going into the playoffs now. Getting beat twice by 10 men. Just about everyone is putting in below par performances. The keeper is a fucking joke at the moment, all over the shop. Dallas isn’t a left back and if we think we can get away with him in that position then we’re stupid. Hernandez’s passing today was atrocious. Time and time again he flicked balls on to a blue shirt. He hasn’t done this as much this season but that was back to his worst. He was crap today. Jack Harrison didn’t have the beating of anyone and struggled all match. It was a shocking defeat by a really shit team and I can’t see us doing anything in the play offs.

[LU] Ipswich
Apart from our goal which was the best move of the game, it’s been a horror show from us. I’ve lost count of the number of misplaced final balls and with Roofe looking completely out of his depth up front we’ve hardly troubled them. I’m just hoping Roofe will get a decent chance and stick it away to get some confidence going into the play offs because he’s way off his early season performances.

Re: [LU] Ipswich report
I watched on tv, and I know being at the game is always more telling, particularly if you’ve had a few beers, but there were parts of the game early on which which were pretty poor. The constant giving the ball away, and the misplaced long balls - I get the trying to stretch the game, and how this sometimes works - drives me mad. I am trying very hard not to be critical, because the season so far has been a revelation, and maybe the speed we play at induces panic in other teams as well as meaning misplaced passes by us. We could, and should, have won by more and Forshaw’s performance was one of his best for us. Putting 2 or 3 wins together would be nice now though. For the first season in years we have a serious chance of going up!

Re: [LU] Ipswich report
Agreed, I didn’t go last night but managed to watch on LUTV and I thought it was another poor performance from Ayling. His passing seems to have deserted him completely. I thought we were poor first half but second half mainly due to Hernandez we took them apart and should have won by more. I thought Dallas probably had his best game for Leeds (the bar is low) by showing that he has got something to offer even if it was against very poor opposition. I like Forshaw and as somebody said he plays like Batty - always available, gets everywhere and always efficient with his passing. A few months ago I wouldn’t have dreamt of droppping Siaz but he’s not delivering and looks to have lost all confidence in front of goal. I was impressed by Roofe first half but he faded badly and didn’t contribute anything second half. Lots of praise for Philips but I thought he had the easiest job on the park mopping up at the back, no pressure and playing simple balls out from the back. Can he play that role against a better team with pace - I doubt it. Forest big game.

Re: [LU] Ipswich report
Pablo showed just how much we miss him when he’s not there. He would be the first name on the team sheet for me. Thought Phillips was superb. I still think that no one else in the squad is capable of hitting the 50 yard plus cross field balls that he does. I also thought that Forshaw looked good when he came on for Saiz , with Klich moving further forward. We looked more solid and it’s definitely an option when Saiz is having an off day.

Re: [LU] Ipswich report
Not to be negative but I thought Ayling was poor. I think to play Bielsaball you need to be a thinking footballer and Ayling ain't one. He is best when he plays quick and direct. As soon as he stops and has to think he makes mistakes.

Secondly the fact that despite it being shooting practice at the end and almost the oldkids game of attack v defence we only managed 2 goals However these two gripes are totally overshadowed by a tremendous performance, all made possible by the return of the magician , Pablo Hernandez, who was sublime and went through their back line like the proverbial knife through butter.

The second goal and the one that eased all our tension off the pitch and led to total capitulation from Ipswich on it, was brilliant and well worked - a short corner came back to Pablo and his cross was superbly dummied by Phillips(?) and fell to Cooper who side footed it with his right from the edge of the box - yes League -One Liam as some call him finsihed with real skill and aplomb.

Bielsa again used his subs wisely and excitingly making a double sub with over 30mins to go and no more cards to play. I love the way he re-acts to what is happening on the pitch - some managers seem to pre-plan the sub one striker for another on 60 mins every game or making no subs at all until time wasting at the end of a game. With other results going our way this week - Boro being held at home by Rotherham and West Brom getting hammered at home by Derby means 'we are top'the league, say we are top'the league' - these results confirming what we already knew , this League is totally competitive and any result is possible in any match. This also elevates our performance and result last night - Man City v Cardiff or whoever is top and bottom of the Prem is pretty much a nailed on home win, that is not the case in the Championship (look at Birmingham turning us over when we were top and they were bottom or next to bottom) so beating Ipswich whilst expected was in no way a foregone conclusion and we needed to be at or near our best to do it, and that is what we were, back to our best So onwards and upwards - with Forest to come Saturday evening - we will know by kick off what we need to stay top but I am confident if we can play like we did last night that no-one in this Division will beat us , so it is all about whether we play to our full potential.

Re: [LU] Ipswich report
It was certainly good to see us not look clueless again. Amazing how two players whom I didn't rate much last season could turn out to be so influential for us this one. The real test will come this weekend though. Cos there's no getting around the fact that so far, 5 of our 7 wins are against teams who're currently in the bottom 8!

Good report Rich. Shaughnessy is a good young lad but after his lovely pass for the first goal today he looked what he is. A 20 year old lad who hasn't played as a centre back until this season.

[LU] Ipswich
3 more points and still top of the League - I would have taken that at 3pm so got to be happy with the outcome.Even better we showed that Millwall was just a blip and that we are genuine contenders for promotion -either automatic or through the play offsWe knew that Ipswich were decent and that they were going to be a tough team to beat and a team that would give everything and never give up, and so it proved We just about deserved the win but a draw would not have been unfair on either team. Having said that I always thought that we would win. We started brightly and scored a lovely opener. Shaunessey played a great ball through, very similar to the one by Pablo to Sacko at Burnley. Lassogga let the ball run through and then just slotted it in - a cracking finish from a good player. At this stage I thought we would step it up and win at a canter: instead we got sloppy and loose and over did things. This resulted in us giving away a needlees corner - a corner that brought back all the old failings on the pitch and nightmares off it as two Ipswich players found themselves unmarked on the penalty spot and one headed home. The general feeling was that that would not have happened if Pontus had been playing. Thankfully there was little time for recriminations or worry as a brilliant bit of link up play ended with Saiz putting a great cushioned header into space in the box and Phillips popped up and went round the keeper and scoring from a tight angle. 2 1 and once again I thought we would go on and win comfortably. However in the ten minutes before half time both sides could have scored - first another lovely piece of play ended with a tremendous back flick from Pablo into the path of saiz who should have shot and scored first time - instead he took it back inside and messed it up. Then jsut before the whistle Anita earned his wages heading one off the line (again) the second half promised a lot but delivered little as the two teams cancelled each other out for the most part. They huffed and puffed to little effect and we hit them on the break but it never quite came off. The second half will be remembered (if it is remembered) for two dreadful goalkeeping errors - first a corner from Pablo was caught on the line and then dropped over it by their keeper. THat made it 3 1 and we should have been comfortable but Felix - having come out dangerously but brilliantly to stop an attack in the first half - gave his critics some big ammunition when he palmed a straightforward cross back into the box and to the feet of the Ipswich player who could not miss the clock / scoreboard was not working so I was never sure how long there was left as we hung on, reasonably confidently but no where near 100% to the lead and the 3 points Not the best of games or performances but it was a win and 3 more goals - 2 crackers in their own way and whilst we conceeded there was a belief that we would not have done so if Pontus was playing 2 tough away games coming up but this was the perfect result if not performance going into them Dave ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org FLAME WARS 'R US

don't disagree with your statement about when Allioski, Siaz and Hernandes are on song they are unplayable however I think the days when they're all on song will be few.

Of greater concern to me, however, was TC's post-match comment that Jansson was fit, but that he had decided not to select him. I don't understand that. Shaughnessy is a good player, and clearly made a beautiful pass for Lasogga's goal, but the defense as a whole looks much more solid when Jansson is playing. For example, McGoldrick's free header for Ipswich's first goal came from exactly the sort of position from which Jansson usually heads clear. I hope Pontus is back for Tuesday night. Simply put, we have not conceded a goal this season when Cooper and Jansson are the center-half pairing. I also remain unconvinced by Wiedwald. A top keeper should have held the shot he parried into the path of the Ipswich player for their second goal.

Re: [LU] Ipswich game
I hope that the reason for Jansson being missing was that he had only just recovered and could do with a couple more days. As regards looking lightweight, I'm not sure I agree, plenty of skill, but today Alioski was below par, his crossing was terrible, but when all 3 are on song they are unplayable. When they aren't Dallas, Grot and Roofe are all worthy subs, TC maybe needs to move things around a little earlier. Despite a dip in the last 3 league games we are still top of the bloody league Cardiff are eminently beatable! ttfn Richard -Original Message- From: Leedslist [mailto:leedslist-boun...@gn.apc.org] On Behalf Of {broken-address} Sent: 23 September 2017 18:33 To: leedslist@gn.apc.org Subject: [LU] Ipswich game TC may take the 3-2 result as a vindication of his team selection, but I continue to believe that we look a little lightweight going forward when Hernandez, Saiz and Alioski are all on the field together.

[LU] Ipswich
Let's not forget that this is a great win against a team that will be around the play offs and provided very stiff opposition. I loved the way we bounced straight back after they equalised and how we continued to play and break on the counter to try and kill the game off. However, I'm going to judge the game on its own and to be honest at times I found it hard to watch. This was not Burton and I think we showed a lot of frailties all over the park. For starters, the manager's tactics were suspect. Playing Hernandes as a left winger doesn't work for me and he's too isolated and unable to get involved. Also at the back today I thought we were very shaky. Shaughnessy and Cooper have both done ok this season but together today they looked at times to be struggling against an Ipswich team who thrive on corners and set pieces. I'm amazed we got away with to be honest because I think this game also showed us that Weildwald is going to struggle in this league against teams who lump it into the box at every opportunity. He was all over the place, not coming for crosses, dithering and not giving any confidence to his defence. I thought at times first half was pretty poor from us, O'Kane was terrible, definitely his worst 45 mins in a Leeds shirt and he's had some average ones and Philips who took his goal brilliantly was largely anonymous and just seemed to be wondering around aimlessly. Allioski couldn't get in the game and Siaz seemed a little isolated. The most frustrating thing for me was we seem to have a plan to always play it out at the back, Ipswich didn't allow us to do that and it seemed like Wieldwald didn't have a clue what to do ? Surely we practice plan B i.e. the big punt up the field. Ok, it's not pretty and it might not be the way the current team is lined up to play but when the short ball isn't on surely there's no option ? Wieldwald looked confused and shaky. He's no Rob Green for me. There was patches of good play from us particularly the first goal which saw Shaugnessy advance up the field and play the best ball of the day through to Lasogga who made a great run and slotted it on the far corner - great finish. We also had a couple of other chances , the best falling to Siaz who should have shot but hung on to the ball too long and the chance wasted. He does that too often for me, but we forgive him. The Ipswich equaliser came from a free kick (there's a surprise) and it was easy as can be - cross, unmarked McGoldrick , free header , 1-1. Who was marking him ? We haven't had to ask that question in PJ ('Post Jansson') times and it took me back to defensive problems that troubled us for years. We missed Jansson, as we did at Bolton, and without him we're not the same team. Hope he's back for Cardiff. But then we immediately bounced back and produced the moment of the game with O'kane , Lasogga and Siaz who cleverly headed to Philips who still had a lot of work to do. He nipped in and from a tight angle put the ball in the back of the net. There's not many strikers in this league who would have scored that goal. Great play Kalvin. Ipswich came again and were unlucky not to go in level when on the stroke of half time they won yet another header in the box only to see little Vern on the line clear it away. Happy to see us go in 2-1 at half time but undeserved. Second half, Ipswich continued to play the best football and pepper our goal with crosses whereas we looked pretty careless when we had the ball. McGouldrick (Man of the match by a country mile) was denied by Wieldwald and I thought they would go on to take this game. But we came back and that's great credit to this team and the management. O'Kane who had his worst first half probably had his best 45 minutes in the second half and Siaz and Allioski came alive. We were playing on the counter attack but that's effective and Ipswich couldn't handle it. The 3rd was lucky but still clever from Hernandes. I saw their keepr advance a couple of yards of his line in preparation for the cross. Hernandes saw it and fired in the corner. It still should have been comfortable for him but he was slightly unbalanced and made a complete arse of it dropping it over the line. 3-1 and game over. Well no actually, Ipswich continued to attack and yet another cross was not dealt with by Wieldwald (weak keeping) and he just pushed it in to the path of the Ipswich player who stroked it home. To be fair to us, we looked for the 4th and did not hold on and actually played some of our best football whereas McCarthy took of McGoldrick and Ipswich didn't look as dangerous. We had chances to finish it but yet again Saiz did all the hard work but failed to finish. As I said, in my first paragraph, this was a great win and I am very happy with it but as a performance I think we can learn lots from the weaknesses we showed in this game which were more in this game than I've seen for a while. Scores:

Re: [LU] Ipswich
I think part of the frustration of the crowd comes from the fact that Rosler has promised them one thing (Heavy Metal, press the opposition, play in their half) and is delivering another - slow, methodical. Though it seems very unfair, as he has been one of our better performers, I would tempted to drop Berardi to get Byram a run at right back. Back on form he can deliver a drive and impetus down that right that Berardi can't and can get the crowd going. We need something to get some oomph and momentum back in our play. Also bewildered at neither Erwin nor Botaka on the bench last night. 0-1 down in the last 20 mins and he didn't bring on Doukara. One can therefore safely assume he will never bring on Doukara - if not then when? So surely have either Erwin and/or Botaka as an option? It's something different. Rosler, as so many managers do under Cellino operating under a perpetual sword of damocles, is allowing play and tactics to be inhibited by fear of defeat rather than pushing the game and driving for the win. Still hopeful Rosler will deliver more, but he needs to be braver and bolder (not just balder).

Re: [LU] Ipswich report
Listening on the radio, Adam Pope and Noel Whelan were expressing concern about the Ipswich player who was down injured. Then they realised it was Varney - at which point Whelan said ' should have kicked him harder'. Later when Varney got subbed, Whelan joined in with the crowds booing. Quite an achievement to become so unpopular when we had such a succession of average players in recent years.

[LU] Ipswich report
I arrived at the ground in a state of shock having been told that the IPA I had ordered in Spencers (now Head of Steam) was £6 ! £6 - a - pint, for IPA, in Spencers ! My bafflement was further compounded by the team news - Bellusic back, no suprise but neither Cooper nor Bamba out, was he to play in midfield? No we had 4 centre halves across the back with Taylor doing a Byram. In this state of fugue it was obvious that I would soon be seeing Varney leaping like a salmon and powering a header into the net right in front of me. Luckily it was offside and apart from a good headed pass later on Varney was not to prove a torn in our side. Ipswich started well and we didn't but they did not look very good and their mistake quota was high as they misplaced passes and got it wrong a number of times in a poor first half. We did not do much either but did seem, once again, to be denied a definite penalty when Sharp was pushed over in the box. So the first half came and went - with Millwall losing and Wigan bound to lose at Norwich (sic) a point would be OK in the great scheme of things. The second half was a bit better as we had more control of it with Taylor impressing and Byram more to the fore. Byram got involved in a few tussles with their number 3, on one occasion losing and winning the ball in an individual battle 3 or 4 times. The opening goal came from this private battle as their defender fouled Byram on the corner of the box - 'dont shoot ffs' said my mate as we watched Mowatt bend it round the wall and into the corner of the net! 1 up and just about deserved.My mate did mutter something about us scoring too early and that we would lose 1 2 'Just keep the ball a bit' was the accepted wisdom on the terraces but the players had forgotten how to do that and did not touch the ball between the goal and the equaliser. Earlier on Silvestri had made a top class save and brought comments from those near me as to what a find he has been and what a great shot stopper.

We sent on Morrison for Sharp, presumably to help us keep the ball a bit more and we did indeed manage to run the clock down and get 3 more points that is edging us ever closer to safety.Dave ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER
Re: [LU] Ipswich
Ipswich have certainly gone downhill since they started signing our cast-offs, slipping out of the play-off positions to seventh. Their fans seem desperately unimpressed with their performance last night and their form since Christmas in general:- http://www.twtd.co.uk/forum/page:1 Tim W. From: Nick n...@6haroldplace.co.uk To: leedslist leedslist@gn.apc.org Sent: Thursday, 5 March 2015, 7:27 Subject: [LU] Ipswich This was a dull match…a really dull match…for 70 minutes next to nothing of any note happened - Ipswich had an early goal disallowed, we had a decent penalty shout denied mid-way through the first half. Other than that zip, nada…Christ it was boring. The most fun I had was when my mate turned up at half time having missed the train he should have caught up from London. How we laughed. Hardly surprising that we did’t set the world on fire, with our 4 CHalfs playing across the back - Cooper moved to LBack to allow the return of Bellucci - replacing the injured Austin - so Taylor moved to LMidfield - meaning we now had both full backs in midfield. Wootton and Cooper do not look comfortable at full back - both frequently out of position, caught tucking in too close to their CHalf…not doing enough going forward, and to be fair, not being good enough or comfortable enough on the ball going forward, so staying back is probably the best option for them, but it limits the team’s attacking options severely. On 70, we got a free kick on our right-side of the box, 25 yards out. Mowatt stepped up and thumped a beauty right in by the post…it looks like their keeper flapped and missed as he feared a collision with the post. Many keepers would have kept it out. Joyous celebrations around the ground and that feel-good factor lasted precisely 1 and half minutes until Silvestri began his one-man campaign to entertain…somehow he let a something and nothing 20 yard grubber run under his body…1-1. Back down the other end, minutes later…the sub, Antenucci, controls a high ball well, turns his man, holds onto it for a second or two…Cook flashes by him down the right wing, Antenucci releases the ball into his path…a touch or two and lovely cross pulled back to just just beyond the penalty spot, where a swivelling Billy Sharp shins the thing into the bottom corner…2-1. Minutes later again and Ipswich are pressing and some unknown reason the previously steady Bamba, handles the ball. There’s a bit of delay…eventually the left footed penalty taker, hits the spot kick low and hard to Silvestri’s bottom right hand corner, which as good luck would have it, is exactly where the Italian had dived and he does well to palm the ball onto the post and out. 5 minutes left and its all a bit of huff and puff without any clear cut chances…and the 3 points are ours. Less than 20,000 there to see it in all its glory. MOTM - hero/villan - Silvestri - for sheer entertainment factor. Back 4 often at sea - Bellucci makes some dreadful challenges…Bamba was mainly steady…Cooper/Wootton not often where they should be Byram and Taylor - are athletic, have decent control and good instincts to press forward with pace and thus are worth playing in the midfield…the problem is that we don’t have better full backs than them to cover… Cook, Murphy Mowatt - were all much of a muchness in the middle - some good stuff…still trying to play football the right way coupled with some decent defensive tracking (not so much Mowatt)…but they all go missing for spells and they all are guaranteed one or two howlers a game Sharp - don’t rate him, doesn’t hold the ball up, can’t beat defenders in the air or on the ground…one decent shinner, but he was in the right place to get it. ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER

Re: [LU] Ipswich addendum - Tom Lees
Kebe looked OK early on linking up with Byram, Diouf and McCormack but overall was pretty annonymous and rubbish. One move summed it all up when he 'glided' past the first defender and then hit an awful cross into the first man. He is a bit of a bottler in 50/50s and offers very little defensively. Looks like he may have something about him but is yet to show it to any degree Stewart was totally annonymous first half and did little second half until just before their goal when, as outlined in my report, he checked back and totally messed up when the fans were screaming at him to take the player on. He did learn from that and next time he had the ball he beat his man, cut inside and hit a shot across goal - never going in and would have been a belter if it had. This lifted him and got the crowd a bit on his side, and his next touch, he drove into the box, beat the first man and went past the second albeit losing control of the ball which was most likely going behind when he was fouled - pen, goal. That lifted him and he did try a few more runs - he was assisted by Mowatt, whose passing is always purposeful and invites runs rather than the crablike passing of Brown. Again may have something about him, but not much yet, and since we have him on a 3 year deal he will need to deliver quickly to stop himself becoming the fans scapegoat. So maybe 4 out of 10 for Kebe and 5 for Stewart last night - a long way from the performances we need.

Re: [LU] Ipswich addendum - Tom Lees
Got to say I agree with everything you say Dave. Lees was just shocking (as was Kebe) I think our best two in central defence are Pearce (who is always steady away) and Zaloukas (sp). I feel a bit sorry for Zaloukas - one bad (shocking!) game against Wednesday and he's dropped from sight, not even making the bench. I'm definitely not in the McD 'Out' camp but he doesn't seem to know what he wants to do. He's tried every combination of players and none have worked out. I was glad to see Diouf involved last night but in my mind, if he is involved he should be coming on for the last 20 or so. In his interview post-match last night he (McD) had a go at the board about all the shenanigans going on. He also said that Varney had asked him not to be involved last night as he did not want to pick up an injury and jeapordise his move, should it come off WTF? If his move doesn't come off he should be told to fcuk off and not play for us again. I'd have to start with Mowatt too - maybe at the expense of Austin? Still, I don't think we're a million miles off - if we gel, and we have the option of the wingers having Smith to aim for now and then, we might just steady the ship. McD did try reminding us that him (and the board) saw this season as a building and steadying season before our 'push' (with his team) next season. Keep the faith!

Depressing. -- On 29 Jan 2014, at 07:38, nat...@sky.com nat...@sky.com wrote: Well I may have been looking forward to this pre match but after about 10minutes I was looking forward to the final whistle, so poor was the fare on offer. 2 poor teams, playing poorly does not make for a great spectacle especially in the rain. As expected we began with the same team as started against Leicester, the only change being Diouf for Varney, who did not even make the bench, giving credence to the Varney to Blackburn rumours. Against Leicester we started with passion and commitment and some flair creating chances galore early on - yesterday by half time our sum total was a shot by Austin that then keeper saved down to his right but which looked like it was going wide anyway, plus McCormack could only skim with the top of his head a too high cross. They were no better and also created little in a game littered with odd off sides - I say off because there were so many of them, mainly within a few yards of the halfway line and not appealed for by either team. The only bright point were a couple of nice triangles between Kebe, Byram and Diouf along our right touchline which came to nothing - not helped by the linesman who was 2 yards away but was the only one who did not see Byram 'taken out' when going for a one two. Diouf clearly has more class and skill than the rest of the team but I am not sure what actual use he is in the present line up. His lack of pace and lack of goal scoring threat makes him a luxury we do not need. The 20k crowd (up to you if that is good or not) greeted half time with muted applause and a few boos. These boos were really ramped up fairly early into the second half when a long range shot should have caused Kenny no worries but he somehow let it go through him and into the corner of the net - shocking mistake. This brought chants of 'we all love Leeds' from our new singers in the South Stand whereas the Kop responded with 'what the F is going on' for a few minutes before getting behind the team again. Things then improved slightly when Stewart who had got some real stick off the crowd a few minutes before for checking back and passing the ball to them ,when the chance was there for him to have a run at them, did just that and although he seemed to have run out of space and lost a bit of control in the box he was tripped and we got the nailed on but soft penatly Capt Ross hit it home and McD brought on Mowatt and Poleon - who were about to be brought on before the penalty This injection of youth and pace roused the crowd and Mowatts prompting passing and Poleons direct running did liven things up a bit but to say that the last half hour was entertaining would be stretching a bit At last the final whistle put us out of our misery and it was a point apiece - all either team desreved on a night that will soon be forgotten. The applause at the end was subdued and there were a few shouts of abuse but mainly fans were just apathetic - they are fed up to the back teeth with the take over nonsense and the lack of transfers despite all the big talk from Haig The five minutes or so between the goals showed that the fans are desperate to get behind the team and support them BUT that patience has worn out, 10 years of dross has made fans patience wafer thin Anyway roll on Saturday and 3 points :-) Dave ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER
[LU] Ipswich addendum - Tom Lees
Probably because I have tried to wipe it from my mind but I forget to mention the performance of Tom Lees - I have never seen a worse 'footballer' than this lad. He is generally poor on the ball but yesterday he took it to new heights (lows?) Every time and I mean every, he had the ball at his feet he looked to turn back and pass it to Kenny or just lumped it forward. Given that we had no target man this was more stupid than normal. It got so bad and so predictable that fans were genuinely laughing towards the end of the game at his ineptitude. Yes he is an OK defender but you need more than that at this level and sorry Tom, you just have not got it A reflection on the game is the fact that for me, Warnock was man of the match !

Re: [LU] Ipswich last 30.
Can't speak for the Germans but most dutch (based) persons don't have their own satellite - with virtually all the country being on cable a lot of places, including Amsterdam, get iffy on folk putting up their own satellites. Some areas, where a number of ethinic turks, etc live you do see satellites on balconys but it's frowned on and there are purges to remove them. The Amsterdam skyline does look a lot cleaner since the removal of ariels, satellites, etc. That said we do have access as there's enough cafes and pubs showing games who have the necessary for it which is how I got watch Saturday. And as said they also had all the premier league games on other screen plus footie from other countries and various other sports. Incidentally it's not just Al Jazerra for Championship footbball now. Fox has just started here in the Netherlands and they have got the rights for showing live Championship games here. guy On 26 Aug 2013 at 11:07, Matt Anderson wrote: If you have access to the hotbird satellite (as I'm sure most Dutch/german based people do!?!?!) they show championship games and other things like French league on Al Jazeera +3 channel.

Re: [LU] Ipswich last 30.
Internet chair perspective on a bad feed: First 30 minutes were dire, they were all over us. Peltier was totally absent and the midfield looked very disorganized. Then we got a lucky break and good finish by Varney. Second half missed the second goal as was making tea. Any good? Sounded like a deflection. Better passing and more control and I am not sure if that is why Ipswich were less threatening or they played above themselves first half-hour. However, to be honest they still looked the classier team and we were doing some last ditch defending for at least a good 20 minutes soon after 60 minutes. Then they seemed to run out of steam and we were comfortable I thought the last 10 or so. I definitely think the win flattered us. Amazingly seeing I am in the US I have seen the first three games live and have to be honest I see us as a hard-working grafting team with very little class or pace. After praising Austin last week I think this week someone should tell him to calm down a bit and take his time. So many first time hoofed balls from defence when he had acres of space and loads of time. Still 8 points from 12 so wtf do I know (and no need to answer that.)

[LU] Ipswich
As I said yesterday good result , poor performance. I keep hearing people saying Ipswich were really poor but what does that say about us when they completely bossed the second half for long periods. I think our team selection is wrong and our midfield flatters to deceive. On the positive side of things I thought we started brightly and in general our back four did their job, especially Byram who had another good game playing out of position at right back. It's like watching Gerrard playing right back for Liverpool, you know he would do a decent job but he's got so much more to offer. Get him in midfield Colin. For the first 20 minutes we passed the ball well and took them apart. Diouf was at the centre of everything and when he plays like this he is a class above at this level. I just wish he had another yard of pace because then he would have the impact of a Strachan. Jerome Thomas looked dangerous every time he got the ball. I think Colin asked him to move centrally at times ( probably compensating for the lack of pace and ability to run of our main centre forward) - he caused them a lot of problems. We should have been 2 up but Becchio missed a sitter. It was a peach of a cross and my theory is that Becchio had time to think about it being unmarked 5 yards out, he just had to direct it into the net, but this requires ability and he ain't got none. If anything he's an instinct player and his best play is when he doesn't have to think about things. But after that 20 minute spell Ipswich looked the better team and we played like the away side. Paddy Kenny made a couple of decent saves but in general although Ipswich had a lot of possession they were pretty toothless up front and in the end DJ Campbell , who has been scoring for fun recently, was dragged off. On came Chopra who immediately looked dangerous. I can't think of much else to say really , it was a poor game, really poor atmosphere and for me, after a bright start, a really poor performance. So onto the team selection Why is Peltier playing a left back ? Why is Peltier our captain and is this why he is being accommodated at left back ? Our midfield was poor yesterday. Norris, a player who I think has done pretty well, just couldn't get in the game yesterday. He looked like a stumpy, overweight Sunday league player. Tonge, worked hard but was outplayed by players who supposedly are not at his level. Scores: Kenny -7 his kicking was poor but when asked he saved us. Peltier - 5 looks uncomfortable at left back. Not captain material. Byram - 9. Pace, composure, skill, acceleration.A real talent. Get him in midfield. Tate - 7. Solid, got caught on a ball a few times. Lees - 7. I thought he defended pretty well. Norris - 2 really poor. Green - 6 good goal but didn't figure much. Not sure he is a right winger. Tonge - 5 worked hard but second best. Thomas - 7 started lively and did well for Green's goal. Looks a bit fragile at times Diouf - 8 great first half, tired second. Becchio - 1. Can't really remember a single positive contribution. Yes he won a few headers and flicked them on to nobody, he got caught in possession a few times, he fell over a few times, he used his arms / hands to control the ball (again) but didn't get away with it (again) , he bumped into his team mate as he dallied around the pitch and he did manage to get one header on target second half which their keeper made a meal of. He can't run, he waddles, he is an excuse of a footballer. Subs - thought Macca looked lively. I'd play Byram in midfield, drop Tonge, put Peltier at right back, bring Drury or White at left back. I'd try and sell Becchio in January. Maybe there's some idiot of a manager who might pay some money for him. ___ 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 ___ 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] Ipswich (inc a link to goals)
Well another 3 points and 4 wins in the last 5 games. A rare clean sheet as well. So those of us who went have to be happy I suppose. The sparse, sub 20k, crowd and the paltry turn out from Ipswich made it all a very low key affair and it is hard to be too over enthusiastic about it. Having said that we were deserved winners against a team in a decent run of form - albeit they were mainly very poor. We brought Diouf in in place of Ross and Thomas in in place of Hall and these 2 were our best players. Green also continued to impress.We bossed the first half and it was worrying that we went in only 1-0 up. This was due to some desperate defending by them including a good save from a shot by Diouf and a goal line clearance after a strike by Norris. They had a couple of breaks but never really threatened. A series of corners ended with us opening the scoring. At first we thought the keeper had made a real mess of a header by Lees but the replay on the big screen showed that Thomas, stood just in front of the keeper, had got a little flick to divert it past him. We continued to control the game and then came the Becchio moment - I am not sure whether the bet between Rich W and RIch N is on or not, and I was a bit worried that I was going to be the arbiter of whether Becchio had a chance - well there can be no doubt whatsoever that he had a chance today A real gilt edged one at that. A free header from inside the 6 yard box with the keeper nowhere to be seen. It was one of those that you genuinely think that you could have scored from that position but somehow Becchio managed to put it high and wide - it really was a bad miss. We went in at half time worried that we would rue that missed chance and the other half chances we had created, and our fears were almost warranted as Ipswich came out much the stronger in the second half and took the game to us. Thankfully they looked a poor team and did not carve open any real chances. Their momentum fizzled out and we began to control the game again. Then our best move of the game finished it off for us. They surrendered the ball easily to Diouf in the middle of the park, he had both Norris and Thomas overlapping down the left hand side and played it out wide. The ball went to Norris who then shovelled it on to Thomas who took it forward, looked up and then picked out Green powering into the box, he met it first time with a crisp , well taken shot into the corner. A great goal and one that deservedly won us the game. We closed up shop a bit with Brown replacing Thomas not long after Diouf had gone off for McCormack. Without our best 2 players the game just sort of petered out. Ipswich had more of the game after the second goal and had a couple of shots that never really threatened and we hung on for the points. An instantly forgettable game in front of a sparse and uninterested crowd but the players did their bit - 3 points and a clean sheet, it is hard to ask for more really. I am still not sure about Tonge ( very in and out) or Norris (not sure what it is he does really) but Thomas looks quality on the ball and Byram continues to impress. Also at the back Lees and Tate looked solid enough against a really powder puff attack. We will face better opposition but we did all that could be asked of us and we stay within touching distance of the play offs. The new owners need to invest wisely in January and somehow need to bring back the 'feelgood factor' around the place - maybe a good performance in front of a full house on Wednesday will help lift the spirits ?

Sent from my iPad On 21 Jan 2012, at 22:33, DAVID NATTAN david.nat...@btinternet.com wrote: Well I really cannot remember a victory that felt so empty as todays. Given that we were a goal down with 15min to go a victory should have us all buzzing and to turn 0-1 down to a 3-1 win should be the stuff of dreams. As it was I , and many others , left the ground totally deflated after an awful performance in an awful match. My mate refused to celebrate our second it was such a gift and so undeserved,The first half was terrible football and both sides were very poor indeed for the most part. We managed to go the whole 45 minutes without a single shot or chance worthy of the name. They were just as bad but did seem, at least , to be putting some effort and commitment into the game whereas we were just going through the motions,, On the way to the ground we were trying to convince ourselves that the re-introduction of Delph meant that we were on the way to getting a dream midfield , but it never turned out like that. Delph was mainly off the pace and did very little, Clayton continued his invisible man impersonation, Townsend showed that his debut game may be a flash in the pan, Only Snoddy seemed up for it. Up front Forsell showed why he has struggled to get into the team and McCormack hardly got a touch.Thankfully they were almost just as bad and were restricted to one long range effort that hit the woodwork. Then disaster struck, a short corner was played to a lad on the edge of the box and his daisycutter found its way through to Lonergan, no danger there until he suddenly turned in Rachukba and let it slip through his fingers - what a mistake, what a soft goal , a shame since Lonergan our new captain has had an impressive season so far,The quiet subdued crowd fell into a total stupor. So -0-1 at half time, Surely SG would make changes and sort things out at half time - well for 25mins things were just as bad even though White and Becchio were introduced on the hour.Then McCarthy seemed to decide, having said how much he loved it at Leeds, that he would give us a hand, He twice kicked it into touch under no pressure and then a hopeful punt forward was headed backwards by the defender, he had not realised where McCarthy was and the ball was on its way goalwards until McCarthy dived full stretch to keep it out. The only problem was that he was way out of the area and so left the ref no choice - a straight red. For the 3rd game in a row we were playing against 10men. This should have been the cue for us to up the game and really take it to them. Instead we relied on 2 awful pieces of defending (v similar to Burnley game) First the centre half gave the ball to Snoddy in front of an empty goal 1-1 then a mix up between the keeper and defender allowed Ross to stroll forward and walk the ball home. The Ipswich fans must have been tearing their hair out.Ipswich by this time had totally collapsed and after 3 ridiculous goals we then put the icing on the cake (such as it was) with a well taken goal by Becchio who struck it well from a tight angle,So a 3 1 win and the fans trooped home almost embarassed at getting 3 points.As for Bates there were a number of Bates Out chants, and a bit of humour with an adaptation of the Colin Bell,Man City song (number 1 is Colin Bell, number 2 is Colin Bell and so on) - our version was' number one -- here on loan, number 2 here on loan, number 3 here on loan ' etc. Not factually accurate (before Mark H points it out) but they did have a point. Then it was 2 more players to sell before we buy the hotel So all in all a very disappointing victory, once again against ten men, and a victory that does little to paper over the cracks and will not encourage anyone who was there to fill in their ST renewal formsBut I suppose 3 points is 3 points and we now have 10 days until our next game and a debut for Robbie Rogers and anyone else we may bring inDave ___ 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 ___ 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] Ipswich report

Ben Parker pre-match stating that Howson doesn't want to leave and the club want the money rather than player puts a new slant on things doesn't it ? and Lorimer snatching the mic off him. I firmly believe that Bates, Grayson and Lorimer are all lying to us fans. I know the Bates apologists will say I'm just paranoid but I'm starting to doubt anything that is said by anyone in Bates' employ. Unfortunately that includes Grayson, Lorimer, Gray, Kirwin and Dews. I was told that Gray, during the match commentary, reckoned that Howson won't be missed because he hadn't had a good season and wasn't really that good. I also heard that Gray and Kirwin blustered about how an £11.5m player budget was a lot of money and we should all be grateful to Uncle Ken. I didn't hear the commentary so can anyone clarify? ___ 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] Ipswich report
My only comment to RIch, Paul and anyone else who is talking about not going again or are on about not renewing STs - that is your decision and up to you BUT if you are going to do this as a 'protest' then for goodness sake write /email the club and let them know a. That it is a protest and b. What your grievance(s) are. If fans just stop going the club do not know if it is in protest or just that you may, for instance, have lost your job, moved away etc A protest is only any use if the people who count know that you are protesting and what you are protesting about (only time will tell of course if the protests will be of any use whatever fans say and do) Dave --- On Sun, 22/1/12, Richard Walker richleed...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: Yes I know that but I still don't feel like going whilst bates lies. .

Re: [LU] Ipswich report
Given the poor/useless quality of the radio stream on LUTV, for the match, yesterday I did not hear every thing and in fact gave up entirely trying to listen not long after half time; however I am and avid listener from out here in the colonies each week and find that Eddie usually speaks a lot of truth and sense. While he chooses his words prettu carefully it isn't difficult, usually to interpret that he is not happy with a lot that is happening on and off the field. I did not hear any discussoin of the budget yesterday but, one very telling comment, that did not mince words was when he said, That 11 out there, now will no get ya promotion! Eddie has always been a huge Howson fan, extolling the talents and worth of the lad since he was just a kid so, I would find it difficult to believe that he would have, in all good conscience said anything positive, for the team about Howson leaving. . ___ 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] Ipswich
Bates Out ! Sang with more passion than ever before at the kick off yesterday, shame the players didn't show the same passion. I quite liked the look of the midfield - Clayton, Delph, Townsend and Snodgrass ... surely too good for your average Championship team, but it never worked. We couldn't string 2 passes together. Delph looked off the pace and Clayton just didn't get involved as if he's sulking cos his partner from earlier in the season has gone. The back four were awful. How Grayson can drop Aidy White in favour of Danny Pugh at left back is beyond me. This is a case of I've spent money on bringing in a player so I will accommodate him at all costs even if it means I have to drop our best player. Danny Pugh can't defend, has no pace and just looks like a clogger. How can we progress with players like this ? Let's not forget Ipswich - they were just as bad and the game as a spectacle must go down as one of the worst for a while and that's saying something. Then Ipswich get a corner at the South Stand , they take it short, their player moves inside and takes a speculative shot from outside the box and Lonergan makes a complete arse of it. He looked like he was complaining about the lack of cover for the shot but Christ, he should have saved that. I must confess I retired to the bar at this point and didn't even watch the remainder on the screen. Glad I did because I was told nothing happened apart from a load of boos and more Bates Out chants as the players left the park. Second half I didn't return immediately but did watch a bit and it just didn't improve. Some reporting that we were better and upped the tempo in the second half, thinking about it I'm not sure we did to be honest, if we did it was marginal, Ipswich had a few attempts that were close and it was a period where we could have lost the game. Then Ipswich decided to gift us the game. First McCarthy did his old team mates a favour by catching the ball outside the box and getting himself sent off. He got the biggest round of applause of the day - 'You're Leeds and you know you are' - ha ha. Ipswich then decided to defend deeply and invited pressure. I often wonder why teams do this because even with 10 men I think the could have got another and avoided the situations that created our goals. Our first was pure comedy with their player giving it to Snoddy on a plate. A ridiculously bad goal from their point of view. Then a ball down the middle , their sub keeper comes out and just seems to miss it leaving Macca to roll it into an empty net. Then Becchio who came on for the ineffective Forsell and slotted in a 3rd to win the game. Ipswich had abandoned all defensive duties by then however Becchio took his goal really well which surprised me because I thought he'd forgotten what his feet were for. His first touch in open play though I can report has not changed. He'll get picked again next match unfortunately. This game really papered over the cracks as Dave said, but Ipswich will go nowhere this season if they carry on giving away games like this. Guy behind me said he wished we'd lost this game, I could never say that but I know what he means. I'd give most of the team nothing out of 10 for this. Snodgrass , Macca and Becchio can have 1 for their goals . AND WE WON 3-1 !!! What a moaning git I am but anyone who was there yesterday knows that the atmosphere and the general feeling about the place is desperate and something has to give. ___ 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] Ipswich report
Well I really cannot remember a victory that felt so empty as todays. Given that we were a goal down with 15min to go a victory should have us all buzzing and to turn 0-1 down to a 3-1 win should be the stuff of dreams. As it was I , and many others , left the ground totally deflated after an awful performance in an awful match. My mate refused to celebrate our second it was such a gift and so undeserved,The first half was terrible football and both sides were very poor indeed for the most part. We managed to go the whole 45 minutes without a single shot or chance worthy of the name. They were just as bad but did seem, at least , to be putting some effort and commitment into the game whereas we were just going through the motions,, On the way to the ground we were trying to convince ourselves that the re-introduction of Delph meant that we were on the way to getting a dream midfield , but it never turned out like that. Delph was mainly off the pace and did very little, Clayton continued his invisible man impersonation, Townsend showed that his debut game may be a flash in the pan, Only Snoddy seemed up for it. Up front Forsell showed why he has struggled to get into the team and McCormack hardly got a touch.Thankfully they were almost just as bad and were restricted to one long range effort that hit the woodwork. Then disaster struck, a short corner was played to a lad on the edge of the box and his daisycutter found its way through to Lonergan, no danger there until he suddenly turned in Rachukba and let it slip through his fingers - what a mistake, what a soft goal , a shame since Lonergan our new captain has had an impressive season so far,The quiet subdued crowd fell into a total stupor. So -0-1 at half time, Surely SG would make changes and sort things out at half time - well for 25mins things were just as bad even though White and Becchio were introduced on the hour.Then McCarthy seemed to decide, having said how much he loved it at Leeds, that he would give us a hand, He twice kicked it into touch under no pressure and then a hopeful punt forward was headed backwards by the defender, he had not realised where McCarthy was and the ball was on its way goalwards until McCarthy dived full stretch to keep it out. The only problem was that he was way out of the area and so left the ref no choice - a straight red. For the 3rd game in a row we were playing against 10men. This should have been the cue for us to up the game and really take it to them. Instead we relied on 2 awful pieces of defending (v similar to Burnley game) First the centre half gave the ball to Snoddy in front of an empty goal 1-1 then a mix up between the keeper and defender allowed Ross to stroll forward and walk the ball home. The Ipswich fans must have been tearing their hair out.Ipswich by this time had totally collapsed and after 3 ridiculous goals we then put the icing on the cake (such as it was) with a well taken goal by Becchio who struck it well from a tight angle,So a 3 1 win and the fans trooped home almost embarassed at getting 3 points.As for Bates there were a number of Bates Out chants, and a bit of humour with an adaptation of the Colin Bell,Man City song (number 1 is Colin Bell, number 2 is Colin Bell and so on) - our version was' number one -- here on loan, number 2 here on loan, number 3 here on loan ' etc. Not factually accurate (before Mark H points it out) but they did have a point. Then it was 2 more players to sell before we buy the hotel So all in all a very disappointing victory, once again against ten men, and a victory that does little to paper over the cracks and will not encourage anyone who was there to fill in their ST renewal formsBut I suppose 3 points is 3 points and we now have 10 days until our next game and a debut for Robbie Rogers and anyone else we may bring inDave ___ 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] Ipswich
Not the MS's fault ? Was isn't obvious we need to buy some defenders? Did we? Whose fault is that? Is Grayson another Wenger? Having money thrown at him but refusing to use it? As for the Stoat talking about foreplay -- is regularly buggering us up counted? Or is that merely an oversight as his senses one by one elude him? With all this Global Warming lets hope that his island home is visited by the next Irene. Let the old bugger foreplay her.

Re: [LU] Ipswich
Sickening watching. As you say, we totally dominated the first half and Ipswich looked woeful. As far as I could see of the sending off (from right up in the corner at the opposite end of the ground) the Ipswich player pushed White over and then fell over his body, so definately not a deliberate foul, but I'll have to see it again on the Football League show. Straight away Grayson sent O'Brien on for Mc.Cormack, while O'Dowd went to left back and Keogh was left as the lone striker, so we lost the formation that has served us so well in the last couple of games. We tried to fall back on defence for the rest of the game, with inevitable results, though the second goal was a flukey deflection that sent the ball looping over Lonergan into the net. We still could have snatched something if we'd made better use of our breakaways towards the end. Gradel fell over in a vain attempt to win a penalty, and right at the death sent over an awful cross rather than pulling it back to an unmarked Nunez, which led to the two of them squaring up to each other just after the final whistle. A very frustrating day all round.

Re: [LU] Ipswich
Sounded to me like we were excellent until the sending off. Jewell admitted they were lucky to win. We were very good against West Ham and supposedly very good today until reduced to 10.

Re: [LU] Ipswich
Jesus wept Talk about half full. We have played five games: One we didn't show up for Two that we should have won but got players sent off One where we missed a penalty and scored an og of farcical proportions. That is 4 games out of five. And is pure lunacy. It is also symptomatic of the complete farce that has overcome us since that malignant Stoat arrived. I wont repeat the complete twaddle and bullshit we have been fed about all things monetary. Can anyone name a team that is a bigger farce than us? Can anyone remember ever a Leeds team producing such pathetic excuses? 'We could have -- but'. Since when did that cut it at Leeds? We used to take pride in winning. Since when was our club so shamelessly ripped off by a guy who thinks himself above the law and yet is beneath all contempt? 'We are so proud'? Of what exactly?
