Leeds Utd v Fulham Match Thread

[Jaydog]

I thought you were kidding.

I don't think James is though.

I’m just too subtle for some.
I had lessons from Weasel
Whats that saying.
“I’d rather be lucky than good”.

Had West Ham not won yesterday then a 10 point gap, 11 with GD would have been a real mental blow for them and their fans. As it is 8 points is still a good margin but to me at least it doesn’t seem insurmountable especially if they are starting to find form which West Ham fans seem to think they have, though I think any team would of beat spurs yesterday - I've been wary for a while that forest and West Ham have the quality of players to string runs together, look at Everton so often it looked like they were gone and they found results - we have shown we can compete but at the same time I don’t think we are capable of beating either sides results if and it’s a big if they build up a head of steam.

I feel we need a bit of a buffer into March when Wales have their WC playoffs.
In Farke’s first season Wales got knocked out of the Euro playoffs and our Welsh players had a slight dip in form, not much but it was noticeable and we missed out on automatic promotion as the games came thick and fast.
I’m hoping they make it this time

I didn't see that at the game, as I had the best celebration ever after Leeds has scored a goal, with probably the prettiest young lass in the stadium.

Those moments made an old codger very happy.

Yes, the roof certainly lifted a couple of feet when that goal went in yesterday

Anyone notice on MOTD they showed a graphic of Nmechas stats for the match but had a pic of Okafor next to them.
I suppose if you squint deeply enough...........
Typical MOTD regarding Leeds

At the moment that GD is worth a point over Wet Spam and Florist. However, I agree that we should not be counting our chickens as far as those two Clubs are concerned. On that kind of basis we should perhaps think Boneymush can be included too as a Club that could just bugger up their season although they appear to have a decent looking squad. They hopefully are going to miss Semenyo.

By the same token though I am looking interestedly at Spares and Payless. The Manager at the former is taking sips in the last chance saloon; he might well be out of there in the forsseable future. The entitled Spares fans are increasingly having a moan as they are prone to do more often than not. As for the latter, their manager has had a rant and has made managing that club going forward almost untenable. He's losing his Captain and his main striker is making "come and get me" utterances to other suiters. The main spine of his team is disintegrating So, to me, those two clubs are very catchable from where we are.

Spurs next 6 matches
Burnley A
Man C H
Man U A
Newcastle H
Arsenal H
Fulham A

All eminently loseble, so reasonable chance we could be above them after that, even though our next 6 is pretty tough too.

If you're making the point we can catch them, absolutely. If you're saying they're heading down, very small chance of that imo..

Probably , but wouldn't it be funny?

Maybe, never considered Spuds a rival tbh, just a mid table top division team. Chelsea or Manure going down would be hilarious, Chelsea in particular, but don't care who does after that as long as it's not us

Thanks for confirming that, I thought it was my poor eyesight !
A little bit embarrassing for the BBC ……

[White Riot]

Tongue firmly in cheek there though

Here's me thinking you'd seen the light

[White Riot]

I don't think James is though.

I've said on numerous occasions never to take anything I say seriously

EG In Farke I trust

Heidi snapped the three of us, Swannie.

Very embarrassing when you think how many football experts were in the studio

Yes, the BBC cocked up there.

The TV companies & pundits LUFC knowledge is extremely limited.

I would think the photo will be on Heidi's website when she updates the Fulham match.

I'll screenshot the photo when it appears.

So, you go lamping hares as well then?
