West Bromwich Albion v Leeds Utd Match Thread

[mentalcase]

I really hope there's a mass hoo har about what's happened from our travelling support today, despite folk on here thinking everything is tickety boo it flaming well isn't.
The sooner the owners realise kinnear is the new orta the better.
Farke will be next on the chopping block if we lose.
I fear the worst is to come.
I care not if you call me negative, there is little to be positive about at the moment with this club, really really hope I'm proven wrong

[PhoenixUnited]

Rodon, Firpo & Byram were worse than Wober vs Boro', our whole defence was poor!

Fair point and no argument but my comment was to a player that is unavailable anyway.

Nothing wrong with your point of view at all and it's completely understandable as things stand.

However during the run in last season every Leeds I spoke with felt that we'd lose at least 3 star players as a consequence of not going it up.

Now the inevitable has happened why does it seem to have come as some sort of shock and surprise to everyone ?

Yes we need to strengthen the squad and ideally that would have happened already but we're only one game in and with two week still to go there's time available for some quality additions. Patience will be required and it might prove worth it, or it might not but now is not the time to judge.

I am dreading the game today. If we lose it will be meltdown on this forum.

Whilst I appreciate it is personal choice to read posts, for my own personal sanity I will take a hiatus until the window closes.

If anyone other than the clown was responsible for these feckin contracts, i'm 100% sure they'd be down the road by now.

We should also be quite glad (if they don't scarper with it) that DF has managed to recoup the feckin stupid £36m paid for a guy that cost £700,000 3 years ago, believe me, he has one helluva long way to fall now, he will NOT get away with how he plays in the Prem, teams will be planning what to do with the ball when he loses it as we speak. Jesus he has only looked good a few times in the Championship ffs.

Personally, do i think he can come good, yes i do, but that is definitely countered by him being a complete failure in equal measure, it is 50/50 with him, and i'd sooner it wasn't us that has to find out.

Anyway - Are the 49ers twats ? That is the question everyday now till 1st Sept.

PB is no sub, either start him or shoot him, i don't mind which.

But i'm pretty sure he's moving on with Joseph now, and that's in the balance....... (my paranoid head is also left wondering if DF HAS to do this, coz he's being ordered to)

For the first time in a very long time I don't really feel like I want to watch the game.

Regarding Joseph he's in the final year of his contract so if he doesn't play he'll depart and we'll receive a small compensation fee.

Farke of course will be aware of this, but also the player has worked hard and deserves his chance.

Stay with me DDB, i'll give it to you straight and honestly on our performance, and who deserves the credit/bollocking
And you post some decent stuff, ffs don't leave us alone in this asylum.

I actually took your advice (have you not noticed ffs ???) I'm just skimming past any football stuff from the Dramaking and his associates coz they're feckin useless and clueless about players and tactics, it's working a feckin treat al tell thi.
I was gonna do something i've never done and mute them, but if there's 1 thing and 1 thing only the Dramaking is good at, it's trawling the net 24/7 for transfer info, i can't deny that he's never off the feckin thing, his 2 princesses post zero content of anything at all...so they just get skimmed

Honestly, give it a whirl, works a treat

No need

I agree with all Jammy

A bit kneejerk from me coz we need a win, if we were coasting along i'd be building with Joseph for sure.

PB is still slightly edging it for me, although he's very close, if i've not already turned on him (i think i have) i'm very close.

Tbh i just wish PB would fck off, get him off the books, or just give him away, another feckin dumb contract.

[Johnthewhite]

We will know in the first 45 minutes if the dressing room has already gone. My guess is the players have been 'sold the sizzle' just the same as we have. The next question is how do they all react, judging by Wednesday night's performance I think we all know the answer to that one.
A long old season awaits us all I fear, can't see us above mid table unless we see several rabbits pulled from a hat within the next couple of weeks.

Wimp. You have to face up to it.
Its your job.

[Madron]

Beat WBA and we go TOP OF THE LEAGUE.

Think Coventry might be in the mix this year-looked good last night.

[WhiteRose]

We don’t look like a team at the moment and is it any surprise? big personalities and best players disappearing and others that don’t want to be here. Start of season you would hope to have most business done, a settled and refreshed team up for the battle to come and yet for the second year in a row it’s all up in the air - unless Farke has turned in to Maximus Decimus Meridius I can’t see a result today.

[Cjay]

Daniel going to find an alternative to pass it to Jimmy/Georgie now.

[Kennyb41]

Leeds United v West Brom: Meslier, Bogle, Rodon, Struijk; Firpo, Ampadu, Gruev; Gnonto, James, Piroe, Joseph

[Kennyb41]

Well, we're gonna find out a lot about Piroe today that's for sure.

Can he step up ?

[GreennWhite]

I dont think too many fans are expecting us to win today going by what happened this week, with the Boro result and Georgie sale, and i fully understand that reaction. If the teams attitiude matches the talk on here from some fans then its going to be a bad day at the office.
We need to come out fighting and at the very least give it a real go, if we do that and lose at least it might give us some hope for the future, who knows we might even sneak a good result, with a bit of luck.
Loosing 3 players of the quality of Gray, Geo and Jimmy would have a bad effect on any team, but its now that the character of the remaining players needs to come to the fore. Will they be up for it, or even want to is anyones guess. I believe they will and will stick together through this, its a pity some of our fans couldnt be up for the fight themselves instead of all the drama queen responses to whats happened.
