CONFIRMED Patrick Bamford


MojoMuffin said:
LUFC News taking it rather well. Dare I dream he has a fabulous 2 seasons with us and scores against them next season when they're relegated. Funny old game.

Dear Patrick,
Congratulations.
You’ve actually managed the impossible.
Not scoring an open goal? Expected.
Missing a penalty? Standard procedure.
Getting injured clapping the fans? Classic Bamford behaviour.
But choosing to leave Leeds United for Sheffield bloody United…
That, Patrick, is a new personal best.
Honestly, we didn’t think you could drop lower than some of those finishing attempts, but here we are, you’ve nutmegged even our lowest expectations.
You could’ve gone anywhere:
– America
– Spain
– A quiet Championship loan where nobody’s watching
– Early retirement in the Cotswolds
But no. You sat there and thought, “hmm… what’s the most disrespectful option available?”
And signed for that lot.
The club where football goes to suffer.
The club whose highlight of the decade was simply “kicking people.”
The club players join when they want to know what it feels like to play in a windy supermarket car park.
We tried with you, Patrick. Oh, we TRIED.
We defended you when you missed sitters from six yards.
We chanted your name when you tripped over your own feet.
We even convinced ourselves your “hold-up play” was something more than accidental chest control.
And THIS is the repayment?
Joining a side whose tactical philosophy is basically run about a bit and hope someone falls over.
Fine.
Enjoy Bramall Lane.
Enjoy the hoofball.
Enjoy fans who’ll turn on you after one bad touch so violently you’ll be begging for the safe embrace of Elland Road therapy sessions.
And if you happen to score against us?
No hard feelings.
We’ll just assume it bounced in off your shin.
Sincerely,
A Leeds United fanbase going through all five stages of grief; rage being the main one.
P.S.
Try not to get injured walking out of the tunnel.
We genuinely worry.

Reminded me of how much I fucking hate Leeds

How can he address the defence problem until he has a transfer window to work with ?

I don't expect him to address it and put it completely right. I agree, that would be unrealistic.

I just don't think it's too much to ask for him to at least improve it a fair bit. He hasn't (imo).

Most new managers tend to focus on this aspect when they take a job with a struggling team.

That's all I was trying to point out.

Wilder running true to form and signing a forward who is a lazy arsehole who couldn’t press a shirt to follow Robinson, Hogan, Archer and Cannon. If madness is doing the same thing twice what does doing it five times count as?
UTB & FTP!
 
Maybe he’s coming as a part-owner - he's worth more than our current owners - Bamford is the B in JCB.

Am I allowed to retract my previous statement that I'm done with this season just so I can say I'm done with this season again?

If you don’t like what is being served don’t bother coming.

If you can’t support us when we lose, don’t bother coming when we are winning. Not quite sure he came up with that quote (think it might have been Silent Blade but I like it and it rings true about teddy throwers like you
 
Well it's an interesting one for sure! Hope it works out but have v low expectations for this one. Good to see we have signed a striker though.

I've never a problem with constructive criticism ,but come on some of the anger towards him is ridiculous,I'll trust the manager and staff ,some work some don't that's football .and I don't play the massive blade I am .😉😂
Reasons for he's a different type of striker than we have
Downside would be fitness and desire has he got it

I agree with the reasons. He’s something different.

I think he’s a prick, but I’m hoping he becomes ‘our prick’ and has some positive impact.

I can think of a dozen reasons why not but he’s here now so what’s the point!
 
The club whose highlight of the decade was simply “kicking people.”
From the club that football fans still refer to as "Dirty Leeds".

The club players join when they want to know what it feels like to play in a windy supermarket car park.
From the club that is literally next to park & ride.

God, I detest Leeds fans.

I've hated bamford at every club he's played for, he's the hated players hated played, even Suarez thinks he's a horrid shit of a player but loves him because he makes him look honest. This is pure desperation now, the shit topping of the already effluent cake baked so far. We've regressed so far, can't even be arsed to call out Wilder on this, it's just so predictable.

Don't think I hate anyone as much as you hate a footballer
