What dross, How can a leeds fan call himself a Leeds fan when he decides things aren't going well after 4 matches. grow up. Give Rosler time, he's only been in charge best part of four games finding out his best team and yes probably do need a couple of extra signings. He knows this, some best signs I've seen in years of intent at the club. People may think we are shipping one or two late goals yes but attack best form of defence.with identified winger problems and interest in Foristieri and Limbombe, imagine those two frightening the opposition, things are slotting into place.Celino hasn't made his millions by foolish investment, he knows the Golden Chalice is Premier league.Hell 20+Million just in Parachute payments when you come down. Patience everyone. Havemt seen any stand out teams in Championship yet. long way to go.

can not agree more. I admit in the past I have got annoyed and called for managers to be sacked (hock 1 game and I called for sacking and darko three) but things are looking good and we are going forward. I have not seen a better team since grayson but bates killed that and not felt this optomistic as leeds fan for decades. smile leeds fans things are moving forward and upwards

24 Aug 2015 21:01:32
Agree with you both. Much much more potential in every area of the club than at this time last season. Don't have any problems with Uwe so far, and MC is like a different person

25 Aug 2015 01:36:49
Agree above. Uwe has to have at least 4-6 more matches to be judged
Wouldn't it be nice though one year to be ready at start of season rather than end of transfer window!

25 Aug 2015 09:25:13
Agree with all above, and Ausman got a point. If we was tracking Limbombe last season would have thought we would have something sorted earlier in transfer window. Foresteiri was a stab in the dark I think, identified late on and took a chance.Obviously not much ambition if he prefers Reading. Still have faith we will get someone in. For you guys who don't catch the youth games young Ronaldo Viera is looking good, raw but definate potential.

Well its been over 50 years leeds has been my team. 50 years.and saturday was sad to say my last. I can, t see this anymore my team with players who should not be in the ground never mind team. Its a sad day but its there's to be even more pain and I can't bear it no longer

24 Aug 2015 15:10:54
If we weren't such a joke it would be a disaster.
The Don must be turning in his grave.
We are a disgrace and what I don't understand is why so many think all is well.
We have a few wonderful players but far too much dross.

24 Aug 2015 15:30:52
This has to be from a WUM

24 Aug 2015 16:04:51
I'm not sure you really understand the game Mr Untouchables. On Saturday we looked solid at the back and there's nothing we could have done about their goal, the likes of which you just have to applaud. Apart from that they never looked like scoring which addressed the concerns from Bristol City game. Going forward we created more chances but I believe we will improve. Don't forget we have new played playing a new system. On the plus side nobody has beaten us and when everything does click into place with a couple of additions, we'll be up there so wind it in eh Untouchable Survivor or whoever you are. Why are the team a disgrace? Do you even watch any of the matches?
Also a message for 'Oh for the good times'. If you've watched Leeds united over the past few seasons and have accepted some of the rubbish that's been played (Neil Warnock era etc), then why now have you had enough? Just when we're starting to look like a decent team again?

MM

24 Aug 2015 16:12:07
Untouchables, your post is very harsh. We have improved significantly. Cellino is showing us he is a proper owner by sinking his money into club. You use the word disgrace. What word would you use about GFH or Bates?

24 Aug 2015 16:26:42
A masterly post from MM.

WUMs fo sure with an agenda.

24 Aug 2015 16:32:24
MM

I question the timing of these illogical unreasonable harsh negative posts. Call me a conspiracy theorist if you want but maybe Cellino is about to spend big this week and potential other suitors to own our club waiting in wings no likey.

24 Aug 2015 16:34:53
Oh for the

I got 2 words to say to your post

The first word is an anagram of "this" with an e on the end

{Ed001's Note - obviously the force is lacking in you or you would know Sith is not spelt with an E on the end. You were going to say Sith Lord right?}

24 Aug 2015 16:47:17
Ed001, you just made me laugh and smile considerably. Yes, you are right. I ate one too many metachlorions for lunch. I guess that manifested itself in my post as I released my anger. If only you knew the power of the dark side.

{Ed001's Note - just don't get Ed007 started mate, if he gets a sniff of a post about Star Wars you will never get rid of him!}

24 Aug 2015 16:50:13
I was upset to say the least that we lost a two goal advantage against BC ,however when you consider they beat Middlesbrough on sat then maybe they are better than we thought .
In relation to the team how anyone can say that the team has not improved is beyond me ,yes things could always be better but slowly my confidence in M C and the way Leeds is NOW being run has risen .
Please remember Mr BATES sold everything ,with the fair play rules against us I think we are lucky not to be in L1 .
Of course not all players have worked out ,neither did sir Alex's .
U R spoke about having a small budget and yet still we are being linked and hopefully added to the squad ,for which I say fair play M C .
I never want to read the headlines of years ago that my club was going under ,so if we take care and have to sell a few players then so be it ,as long as I believe we are progressing then M C will have my support .
I said Bryam would be sold and still think it's going to be the case as if he will not sign best to cash in now and use the money for two or three good squad players .
Under other persons we would be getting free transfers of has-beens of that I have no doubt.

24 Aug 2015 17:19:35
I felt a sudden tremor in the Force there and low and behold there's a Star Wars conversation going on and I wasn't invited! It's about time there was some intelligent and highbrow dialogue on here.

{Ed001's Note - oh god, now look what you've done George!}

24 Aug 2015 18:26:02
Mad Mick, Lord Sith, George "I love white bread" etc, I agree with you guys, everyone is allowed an opinion but what are "oh for the good times" and "Untouchables" on about for god sake

Just look at the club/team/finances now compared to the last few years and we are in a much better position with the real possibility of actually buying the couple of quality additions the squad needs to make it into a real potential top 6 club.

Last year was madness for sure but credit to MC he saw the light/learned and has put in place quality people both in team/support staff/management and exe level so can't see why any doom n gloom really.

Yes we should have beaten Burnley, BC and the Wendies (having said that on Saturday we did not create enough to win, maybe if he had put Mowatt on for Philips, who had a bit of a mare for me, on at half time we may have got the second goal but overall WE ARE HEADING in the right direction compared to the last 5 years+. Yes that my opinion but the facts back this us up really so those kind of comments from those 2 are just, well dull if you are going to say we are crap at least say why and think about it with some reasons.

Actually think we will do OK at Derby which would be a massive improvement on recent years, last years 2-0 was a really poor performance, we will see.

I would drop SB for that game, can't change the defense from Sat, would play Wood/Ant/Dallas as they can click/will click and Cook/Mowatt/Adeyemi for me, also would like to see Erwin as a sub coming on rather than Douk just to see what he can do but that selection is just a "reasoned" opinion ha ha

24 Aug 2015 18:59:54
I actually agree with most of your post
Esp about the finances however we are awful as a team
Here can be no denying as its a fact

24 Aug 2015 19:01:32
At least my dog loves me

24 Aug 2015 18:50:03
Ed007, if you used your divine influence to delete from this site Oh for the or Untouchables which one would be destroyed? The master or the apprentice?

{Ed007's Note - You're asking me Alderaan questions, George.}

24 Aug 2015 20:44:05
really sad posts. firstly if you are a fan then it is in your blood. if champs league or none league you love your team. players good and bad come and go but the club is for life and you will always find a new tearace hero (line from play greater game which you should all see when on).

also we are looking better than years, how did you stomach leeds team that got religated twice (both teams were worse than this one) how did you stomach last season with dave I made leeds a joke w@@kaday? how under under warnock? come on firstly that is not what being a fan is about and secondly this team is going forward.

I understand divorcing the wife if she gets fat, I understand sending kids to borading school if naughty but I don't get turning the back on Leeds if they are not great

25 Aug 2015 00:33:04
If you would divorce your wife because she put on weight the understanding of love is beyond you BW,sorry but think about it! }

25 Aug 2015 01:42:03
How do you know your dog loves you untouchable?

25 Aug 2015 09:40:36
Why would you support Leeds for 50 year then leave when things are picking up. The good times were a long time ago, or maybe you just like to moan and realise you will have nothing to moan about soon. The team is not brilliant but it will be. We have a lot of kids out there who will grow together, 17 and 18 and they are holding there own against seasoned professionals. It all looks good for the future.Phillips had a poor game Saturday but he prefers to be playing more forward but he was given a job to do and did it. Taylor is getting better every game. Mowatt we know is good, Cook back and class. Cooper seems to be getting his head together. All young lads with a couple more signings we will be up there

25 Aug 2015 09:53:29
it is ok ed that was a joke, I was making the point that people might divorce your wife but club is for life (something my wife knows and understands) also not sure how you didn't pick up on the sending the children away if naughty, I'd rather have to sack off the wife than send away my daughter (even if she still isn't sleeping due to suffering from nightmares at one years old, which begs the question what are her nightmares about. I am assuming it is hockaday)

anyway just to clear up I would not sack my wife for being fat, she was fat when I married her

{Ed001's Note - now now Berm, you should know better than to make jokes on here!}

25 Aug 2015 01:03:03
Very good Ed007. I'd have thought you might have been a Bond fan with your digits but now I know you're a fan of the Fett I shall make more allusions in my Leeds posts for your enjoyment.

You know when we signed Scott Wooton I did comment why do I feel like we've picked up another pathetic lifeform.

{Ed007's Note - Ian Fleming based his books on me, why do you think Bond has a Scottish accent? I'm an honorary Sean Connery.
Sadly though not even Master Yoda could improve Wooton, he's the the worst part of any defence system since the shield protecting the exhaust port on the the original Death Star!}

25 Aug 2015 12:44:44
Not leeds related B w she was fat when I married her that has just made my day haha

25 Aug 2015 17:15:25
glad you found it funny my wife didn't she just pointed out that when I met her she was a size 4/6 while I (in her words) was always a fat @@@@@@@ to which I replyed but I had the face to pull it off. she hit me

25 Aug 2015 21:53:37
Bermo in da doghouse. Here's fun. Which would be more effective? Scott Wooton or a bit of plywood to cover up the vulnerability on the Death Star?

24 Aug 2015 04:56:54
so Watford signing if it goes through surprise the Italian connection .

24 Aug 2015 09:25:25
Saw on internet that he's not too keen on coming to Leeds

24 Aug 2015 10:55:57
Signing what, who? What deal are you talking about specifically?

24 Aug 2015 12:17:56
foristieri
