Deal done with Leeds ?

I thought he got married this week?

 

[Broomhall Blade]

I thought he got married this week?

He did to a girl from Leeds.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Deal done with Leeds ?

Being a glass half empty guy that was my original thinking

 

[John Cutsbushes]

I thought he got married this week?

Like hes going to plan that before the penultimate game

 

[FriethBlade]

I am hoping that there is just no need for him. He gets a day off, Davies gets an outing (just in case... or maybe off in the summer??!)

Faxon deserves to start having a look. He looks solid for academy

Dexter almost certainly what you say. He may have been told to go down to Devon for 4 -5 days to have a proper break before the play offs. I think he's played every minute of every game so probably needs a bit of a mental break too.

Whose granddad supports Sunderland.

Probably this

We all could do with a mental break

 

[Rochdaleblade]

Guardian as on the ball as ever.I know Brooks has his fans, but putting him on both wings seems like overkill

 

[Tickhill Blade]

Good to see we're sticking to our rule of always having a Davies on the bench

[Alex Cheeseright]

Maybe it's my expensive tv but the playing surface looks like the first game of the season and not the 23rd at the hallowed ground

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Nice up tempo start. Good to see Brooksy getting involved, take you chance lad

 

[gooseh]

What's this Cooper to Leeds stuff

 

[Bobby b]

McCallums passing especially in decent positions is woeful sometimes

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

What's this Cooper to Leeds stuff

Watching the cricket!!!

Bash on Radio Sheffield/SUTV, no need to reign is his bias...already had a few pops at Cuntwell!

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Quality ball in from the Sheffield born lad

 

[sheff_blade90]

how is hedges still going, it was 25 yrs ago since he was called up to the England squad under mike bassett

 

[Jan Age]

Can see why Brooke’s is not a natural starter… wasteful with the ball and gives it away cheaply but when he does something good it’s normally very good and results in a chance

[espoo blade]

Ref letting a lot go today!

 

[gooseh]

Off topic, but talking about Leeds, what happened to that kid that was caught dogging?

 

[Jan Age]

Cannon - not done himself any favours so far and I really want him to do well.

Brookes - mostly wasteful

McCallum - squad filler

O’hare - I think has for well we just aren’t getting him on the ball early , quick or enough

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

I think the sloppy passes are because we are not used to playing at a quick tempo. Although nil nil, much more enjoyable watch

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Ohare does link up the play even if he isn't a goal threat. Has to start in the play offs

 

[TJ blade]

He's got kennel cough..

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Luton going down as it stands. The fairytale could be over for them.

 

[Jan Age]

Decent half … neat and tidy… looking to play a lot more balls through the middle but ultimately no goal threat to call much higher

 

[Not so Slim ane]

Take Hamer off at half time before he does something stupid

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Decent half … neat and tidy… looking to play a lot more balls through the middle but ultimately no goal threat to call much higher

Crossing and general ' wing play', totally crap. Possession, really good. Solid and composed.
