View From Leeds

[SK10Blade]

Leeds fans chanting 'Jimmy Saville....hes one of our own'. They really are a strange breed aren't they.

"Strange" doesn't do it justice. Absolutely disgraceful is how I see it.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Hunter and Charlton would have multiple red cards in today’s games

 

[Diamondlife]

Cheers Roy, appreciated as always mate

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

“A team with Leon Clarke and Billy Sharp as its strike force getting promoted would be embarrassing for the league.”

Ah! This weeks spot the pig winner..

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

"We improved second half, but still looked venerable"

 

[PokerBlade]

Handball was not deliberate but diverted the ball from our player so probably a pen.

While we're making our own rules up, the ref should've sent a couple of Leeds players off for giving funny looks.

 

[Liverpool blade]

Cheers Roy. It was so good to be back at my spiritual home. So happy that I saw us win.

 

[DiggerBlade]

As always, cheers Roy.

 

[Tray]

"We improved second half, but still looked venerable"

Damn, beat me to it!

Didn’t think they were terrible, didn’t think we were brilliant either. Quite an even contest, but Billy provided that extra bit of quality.

Cheers Roy!

“Sharp was head and shoulders the best player on the pitch followed by their little blonde fella in midfield”


wtf was heck thinking appointing O’Kane as captain? He was utterly useless. What happened to the “new manager bounce”? wow we really impressed our manager”


Cheers Roy.
We are the bounce killers!

 

[Punk Blade]

Duffy was the best player on the pitch by a mile.

Sharp worked hard and took his chances*, which is what Sharp does. It’s always a little bit more enjoyable when Sharp scores.


*difficult to pick an appropriate phrase when one is a penalty and the other is a spectacular volley.

 

[Finn Keane o' Balmaqueen]

Tyler...

this was the day that was made for you.

 

[Silent Blade]

Tyler...

this was the day that was made for you.

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

“Unfortunately these days you can’t give the player the opertunity to go down. Hunter or Charlton would have snapped him in half.”

Norman Hunter wasn't such a hardman when Franny Lee punched the fuck out of him

 

[metty]

Cheers Roy

 

[Good Pinch Of Snuff]

the little blonde fella in midfield - #this

 

[bromtom]

Says a lot about the high standard we have when the opposition think we were the better team and I thought we were having a bit of an off day.

They sound a bit down, I expected more salt to be honest.

 

[SUFC Handsworth]

The saville chants were from the family stand it was “he’s one of your own”

I think their reply was along the lines of "he's shagged your mum" or something like that.

 

[Blade100]

I think their reply was along the lines of "he's shagged your mum" or something like that.

Pretty much, it was “fingered your mum” to some guy a few rows behind, but then the reply to that was “he’s shagged all your kids”

 

[Minty]

Many thanks Roygbiv

A disappointingly fair assessment from most - expected bitter and twisted.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Nice stuff weird one.

Most disappointing one this season. That was almost nice, what has happened to Diirrty Leeds?

 

[Belonging]

Fleck purposely got his yellow card in the 90th minute, tried a wrestling move on first lad, he now only misses 1 league match. Good lad

 

[Eddiecolquhounsleg]

"Handball was not deliberate but diverted the ball from our player so probably a pen."

Another fan who hasn't grasped one of the fundamental laws of the game. If it wasn't deliberate then it's not a pen.

 

[Northern Line]

Doesn’t sound like L**ds scum at all - I’m nervous

 

[Superblades]

We deserved the win. Was more a friendly than a derby imo, their support was dogshit. See you next year and thanks for not ripping our seats out this time.

 

[grafikhaus]

“A team with Leon Clarke and Billy Sharp as its strike force getting promoted would be embarrassing for the league.”

But he's right! It's a known fact that, to succeed, you need proven quality. Like Fletcher, Hooper and Forestieri. Not those players who nobody had heard of a few months ago at Wolves...

 

[United Aren't Back.]

The saville chants were from the family stand it was “he’s one of your own”

Absolute scum. Toothless lowlife from Leeds chanting that at the family stand.What do the ground regulations say about it?
It is definitely a disgusting chant.

 

[shorehamview]

“Unfortunately these days you can’t give the player the opertunity to go down. Hunter or Charlton would have snapped him in half.”

I doubt that, Hunter is 74 and Charlton is 82. Even Leeds can’t be so desperate that they need two pensioners in their side.

"Handball was not deliberate but diverted the ball from our player so probably a pen."

Another fan who hasn't grasped one of the fundamental laws of the game. If it wasn't deliberate then it's not a pen.

And this is where that rule is bollocks and needs changing.

The only person who can say it was deliberate is the player.
So it's 'in the opinion of the ref' in which case it the ref could give anything. Fortunately his opinion was that it wasn't yesterday. I agree. It barely touched him for that matter.

 

[I should coco]

Surprised none of them mentioned Evans could have got a second yellow in the corner ,I think the whole of John st held their breath.

I haven't seen it again yet, but from the KOP I thought Evans was unlucky with the first booking and their player jumped in too.

Just how long did O Kane moan to the ref about the pen for, bleeding ages, kept on moaning while Bily was setting up to take it, right next to him which I thought was gamesmanship too far, and then the twat was still moaning to the ref as they ran back for Leeds to kick off, how he never booked him still baffles me.

The keeper was doing silly jumps and shaking the net up and down. I thought he put himself off rather than being mentally ready to try and save it.
