im absolutely appalled for went on last nigh! but in no way shape or form should an isolated incident be used to tarnish our great supporters like that thats not on!
sw fans were an absolute disgrace with what they were rambling on about! them two poor boys that lost there lives and that stupid prat jones dissin our supporters last night the cheek of him and ya the keeper did make a meal of it you were right NW although we obviously never condone what happened it over shadowed what was a great point for us i just hope common sense will prevail from all this an they supposed take over haasn't been put into jepeordy!
irish leeds fan!

Need to start toning it all down a bit dont you think?!
Less anger..take time for some sober reflection. We are getting a few sw fans on here...lets just say there were faults on both sides and move on.
Look forward to a PEACEFUL return leg with sw at ER

LLHB

Your abslutely right their were faults on both sides! both sets of supports were bang out of order what i meant was at least us leeds fans are hold our hands up for our behavior! dont see sw fans saying the same though do ya? that dope that attacked kirkland should of been spotted at the gates anyway i mean why do ppl even get banned for if thats the case?? cos he obviously had no trouble gettin into hillsborough?

Just like to apologise as a Leeds fan I'm very embarrassed by the actions of a minority, we all have fans that behave badly at times and it is something we either have to deal with or sort out. I would also like to support Mr Warnock for having the guts to come out publicly and apologise for his comments regarding Chris Kirkland, however it's a shame that Dave Jones doesn't do the same for tarnishing all Leeds fans with the same brush. Mot I wish

He (Dave Jones) just has done.

Am listening to a ten year old Sheffield
Wednesday supporter on 5 live who
was at the game last night. Bless
him he'll be back. Thank heavens for
that. Am really worried about the
ramifications of what went on last
night.

Look all ed's we are all in agreement over last night he was a person, but this goes further than 1 person I had ago the other month about people singing about Munich why don't these thugs remember our own history with tragedy and let's stop this now if we hear it tell them to shut it or sing supportive song for the lads on the pitch that need it, I know it's a minority but we all can do something to stop this let's get good old banter going not vile sick chants or violence like last night ......kevlufc

Really really unimpressed with last nights performance. Austin was understandably tired after just getting in from jamaica but that asks the question why did he start in the first place he clearly wasnt fit. Glad to see norris come back on as a sub and i think michael tonge has improved a lot since joining us but we lack a lot of creativity. Counting down the days till mccormacks back, our best player by a long way.

Beefy, LEEDS

I agree, I also think Peltier is our weakest link. Should be benched until he starts firing on all cylinders.

Hello from down under
Point 1
Wat a Dhead. All over the world news. 15 minutes of fame that let's hope the dick gets a year for. See how woebegone the person thinks it was after a tear in prison
Point 2
Sooner than later lady luck is goonna run out. If we shouldn't have beaten Barnsley and can't beat Wednesday were in trouble! Why do we have to be brutal? Why brown and varney. Bring on the young and skillful.
Point 3
Grayson got a nose bleed when the whites were doing well, is warnock introducing the wrong tactics. We are doing better than most thought but we are capable of a lot lot more with the right team pick, formation and game plan.
Point 4
Why the f... Is Rooney playing striker for England?? He is a midfielder with an eye for goal

Beckford at it again

And good old billy.

Missed out on a good goal poacher in Beckford. Was gutted he went to udders field and now he keeps on scoring.

Hasnt tonge scored the same as beckford

20 Oct 2012 15:05:57
apart from the persons that have disgraced our club last night, i think our tactics were shocking too, this long hit and hope is going to get us nowhere, brown punted the ball up field at least five times last night without pointing towards thier goal,we can't play this type of football, it will only see us slide down the table eventually.we need a better passing game,weds were alot better then us and look where they are,varney,brown should never wear the shirt again in my opinion,i like warnock and was pleased when we got him,and still am, but we gotta do better then that on and off the pitch

I think Brown did okay, considering he was basically doing both his and Austin's role. I think we should have started with Norris and rested Austin to be perfectly honest. But I do agree with you about our long ball tactic as Becchio was not have his best game and everyone could see it but we still insisted on playing long ball and giving it away every single time.

Agree with all that. We're losing it in midfield. I'm sick of Brown....shouldn't be starting. Hopefully Green will add some more quality in that area. RW

That is how warnock plays football not very exciting but gets the points

Couldn't agree more. We've had a few decent results lately but the fact remains we're a poor team utterly devoid of ideas going forward.

Barnsley outplayed us and we won with a very didgy penalty. Last night was embarrassing even before the people started trouble and bad refereeing saved us again.

Oh, and all you Grayson haters out there, go look at the table.

Sorry if I'm in a minority but time will prove me right. Warnock's long ball and opposition kicking belongs in the dim and distant past.

Look at the table?,3 pts diff is all with a small and depleted squad,get a life or go support town if u think grayson is god,can't believe some of the whingers and moaners supporting us

People can support their team but be unhappy about the choice of manager. Those two things are not incompatible.

I think Warnock is a dinosaur. His relegations outnumber his promotions 3:2. The way his teams play is unattractive and never works in the premiership. He might get us up on a budget but we'd be straight back down. Why bother?

GFH should plan for the future if the takeover happens.

To the person that ran on the pitch last night ... i seriously hope you get some time, you can then reflect on what a Dkhead, you have been.

You have set out clubs back years, if the potential investors now pull out , wont you be a popular boy !

I also think that Jones was bang out of order, tarnishing us all with the same brush.

A bit of banter is ok, but we are grown ups, other teams will not see that Turkey is trigger pint for us and they will all have fun using it to against us.

We need to stay focussed and be strong .... I was at the game and throwing chairs, bottle and missiles has to stop, were the best supports in the land, let's get behind the boys - DHL

20 Oct 2012 17:38:48
ermmmmmm it was the wednesday fans throwin flairs as it was the cans

20 Oct 2012 13:33:47
Wednesday fan here. I know what Dave Jones said is wrong but it has to be said that at least half of the Leeds fans at that game chanted vile chants about Jimmy Saville. I could here every word from down in the kop. There may have been isolated incidents of foul chanting from the Wednesday fans down at your end but not on mass like your lot. The person that ran on the pitch is overshadowing the fact that you threw bottles into our fans, you ripped up chairs and chucked them and other missiles at Kirkland. You kicked off advertising boardings onto or possibly onto your own fans. What kind of people would do that. Then your players applaud you. DISGRACE, sort yourselfs out.

Leeds United fan here. Totally agree mate.
JB

What about the die die piggy piggy die chant that was loud when brown went down injured?did u not hear that one?both fans were as bad as each other ignoring the obvious

Flare / smokebomb thrown on the pitch. Chants about deaths in turkey. Chanting die die piggy piggy die when brown was hurt. Missiles being thrown into the away end. Yep sounds like it wasjust the Leeds fans who were a disgrace

Agree with your comment we have a problem at Leeds that needs sorting out for years genuine Leeds supporters have had there name tarnished by the people that attach themselves to this once famous club

"but it has to be said that at least half of the Leeds fans...."
Unless you conducted a survey i would politely ask you to re phrase this claim.

LLHB

The chant at Brown was because he is an x blade. Hence, piggy.

20 Oct 2012 12:30:04
I posted an apology about the incident last night, by that moron. However I'm still waiting to see one single apology about Wednesday fans celebrating and chanting about the deaths of two innocent Leeds fans in Turkey. Reconciliation and football can only move forward when stupidity is acknowledged by all and condemned.

Im a wednesday fan and dont condone it at all but wednesday only started singing that becouse your fans were singing about dave jones being a pedophile and songs about jimmy saville oh and you were also singing about the 96 what died at hillsborough! it seemed to me like you were good at giving it but couldnt take and had to start hitting goal keepers ripping seats up and throwing bottles there for i dont think we owe you lot an apology tbh {Ed013's Note - I suggest you take back the comment about the 96, Leeds fans have always had respect for them}

100 % agree mate.
Heres a copy of the post i put on the wednesday page.
Yet another Leeds fan on here to apologise to Kirkland and all Owls fans for the c*** who assaulted your keeper.
I am impressed with how many Leeds fans have been on your site to apologise and condemn.
I am, however, greatly disappointed in Wednesday fans as not one of you has been on our site to express any remorse in the slightest about the Istanbul songs you were chanting, which as we all who were there know only too well was the catalyst that caused the commotion. To hear songs sung to taunt visiting fans about dead football fans in a stadium with the sad history that Hillsborough has is shocking. Very disappointed in the massive indeed and i hope this is all blown over by the time you get to Elland Road and that game ends in peace.

Im agreeing with the original poster here, not the monkey above from Wednesday.
I had the misfortune to be near the Owls fans last night and heres how it ran to me....
The usual inter-fan banter songs, who the f*** are you etc etc. all good fun.
A leeds minority sing the paedo and saville songs, most of us are disgusted.
We scored, the t*** went on the pitch.
Wednesday retaliate with songs of Istanbul. Yes it was you that started the nasty stuff. The atmosphere changed instantly.
Then there was the few, people (yes that word), who started the 96 and your fault song in retaliation again.
As i remember it, thats how it ran.
You wednesday fans are not blameless here, you are not innocent. Youre statement above is akin to your managers knee jerk reactions full of bile and hate because of a few persons on each side of the railings.

wernt we singin 96 in respect of hilsbourgh disaster?

No you wasnt you were aiming it at wednesday fans and south yorkshire police

Wrong, were u even there, we were singing respect {Ed013's Note - Correct}

20 Oct 2012 11:47:34
Completely disagree with this fools actions! But for Dave jones to tarnish all us Leeds fans with the same brush... Not on!
Sussex White

A lot of Leeds fans were singing the Paedo song. Given that Jones was not only found innocent but subsequently shown to have been the victim of a compensation scam, I can fully understand why that song upsets him. It's vile and we should all be embarrassed not just by the tw*t on the pitch, but by the bottle throwers, the chair throwers and everyone chanting that song.

No excuses about Istanbul songs please; that's also vile but that's their problem not ours. We need to cut out the Jones song, the Munich songs and all the other vile chants of a small minority of people not worthy of being called fans. They all bring shame on us.

If I were in GFH's position I'd be having serious doubts right now. The consequences of last night could last for two decades.

Also during the game Wednesday players did not set a very good example both brown and becchio were basically assaulted on the pitch by being kicked, elbowed and punched. Not an excuse. {Ed001's Note - I don't think you can really use that excuse when Warnock has always sent out his teams to kick the opposition into submission. Brown was very lucky not to be sent off on at least two occasions. It was a derby and extremely physical, but the fans should be too busy supporting the teams to get involved in trouble. Unfortunately it is becoming more and more the fashion to abuse the opponent, rather than cheer on your own team. I mean amongst every set of fans, not referring to Leeds or any one particular team there.}

That's why I said no excuse! My reasoning for mentioning it is that jones has not apologised for this or mentioned the chants coming from weds fans, behaving like that on the pitch does not help , but no excuse.

Well said ed001. Apparently it's ok to assault our keeper because a few elbows flew during the match.

20 Oct 2012 11:23:29
Watched the game last night and was appalled to see stupid t**t run on and hit kirkland and then missiles on pitch. Leeds fans are legend for their support ( I've even got a vid on youtube proclaiming it!) All of those who've been to away games know they have to defend themselves if charged by opposing fans, BUT THIS IS TRUELY MORONIC! Who is going to want to invest in a club who are known for violence and foul play? Which rich investor wants to put his name to that? Leeds fans turn up in numbers and out sing the others they should be unsurpassed for their fanaticism not being a set of d heads. T**ts out and Bates out!

20 Oct 2012 10:06:29
after last night warnock is unsure about his fucture he may walk thanks to the mindless morons

20 Oct 2012 08:15:26
the police should make an example of the lad who hit kirkland and send him to jail but david jones should be made to make a public apology to leeds fans by the fa . to call all leeds fans that where there including women and children vile was wrong and childish . i hope leeds united come out fighting and dont think we cant defend ourselves because of things that happened in the past . how would dave jones like it if someone went to his house and put all his windows through and when he confronted the culprit they said they did it because they didnt like the people who lived in the house 20 years ago . come on leeds dont let one person mess things up for us .

20 Oct 2012 02:06:32
The nutter who attacked Kirkland is scum... Should be banned and locked up.
Jones comments don t help. Bit of a knee jerk reaction that stirs up further issues.
When the dust settles, questions need to be asked about why this game was on a Friday night. It was always going to add a bit extra to am already tense atmosphere. Would other big derbies be played on a Friday night? Liverpool v Everton? Celtic V Rangers? Usually Saturday lunchtime kick off calms things down.
No excuse for that type of behavior though. Not proper fans. No respect.
Jonny.

Knee-jerk is right, with the emphasis on Jerk...he needs to look up the word racism too! Don't think NW's Sack of potatoes comment was appropriate either!

I think he said that cos the Leeds fans were ripping out seats and throwing them and also singing some utter vile chants directed at him, anyone in his position would have made those comments. I know that it isnt the majority of Leeds fans and I know that some Wednesday fans didn't help the situation but it was absolutely disgusting.

20 Oct 2012 00:51:16
the guys a person end off story banned .
Jones your comments wont help the home match.REF today let to many things go to early hence issues later on in the game.GFH please dont think were all like this person.we love our team hope he aint put you off.

20 Oct 2012 08:49:36
Well done so called Leeds fans I was there as usual with my 11 year old son walking back to the car four Leeds fans assaulted me knocking me to the floor thanks to the fans who came to my aid don't no who but now my son has done with football {Ed013's Note - Brilliant, another example of thugs that get away with it. My blood is boiling and acts like this are a disgrace. I offer you an apology on the behalf of all decent Leeds fans and I pray these idiots are found}

Heard that the league are investigating a possible fine/points deduction for last nights incident,well done moron.
