What a fantastic result today, very happy Plymouth Whites supporters bus travelling back down South right now, I don't think I've ever been so nervous in a game but today we were fantastic, every man played for each other and Warnock proved what he's capable of with the 2 signings since the takeover as they were fantastic today absolutely outstanding! All the hype today was about Zaha being a hot prospect but that's only because he is attacking and it's more noticeable, we've got our own little gem in Byram he's the hot prospect in this division! Very excited for the next few months to see where we go, and the team will get somewhere with the fantastic support us fans showed today! Come on fans get back and make Elland Road a fortress and intimidating for the away side! In Warnock I trust! Marching on Together!

Fans shouldn't be forced back into the stadium. IF they want to go and support the club then do it but if your still complaining then we are better of without you. Hatters please stay away. Leeds United are marching all the way back to the big time and im on the positivity train all the way!

To the guy who called me clueless. At least I have the balls to sign all my posts. You are probably one of the many who quote yourself predicting scores etc. ala the original poster, when who knows when you are faceless!

We may have money, but we don't exactly look very 'united' here, do we?
Don't pass judgement on people you know nothing about, especially when they're on your side.

People are saying you need to give Warnock a chance I agree,but not until the end of the season like certain people are saying,give him 5 more games,if doesn't start turning it around by then then you have got to get someone else in,ok I feel sorry for him the way things have gone but you can't risk us getting relegated just because you feel sorry for him.

Have a word mate, pointless post, you cant blame Neil, its more the lack lusture performances from the squad, two steady signings on Thurs, with more to come in jan, we could easiy achieve the play offs, if not better. If you wanna blame anyone blame Ken douche bag bates.
Agree0

As I said I feel sorry for him and I hope he turns it around,we need to kick on now,I just hope today's performance wasn't down to the occasion,theres point in one step forward and two steps back,so come on leeds keep it going great performance today.
Agree0

I agree keep warnock he,s had bad luck with injuries and sending off,s give the bloke a chance
Agree0

I really do find it breathtaking that we still have these neigh sayers who want "Bates Out," "Warnock out" "GFH out" the list goes on ad-infinitum.
Please show some decorum and congratulate NW for a great win today and also find it in your miserable selves to thank Bates for keeping this great club in such an attractive condition for people to come and invest.
Also, why not leave your name or initials when depositing all your negativity?

Who let Ken Bates post on here again?
Agree0

I just hope he doesn't sign "kick and rush"players I have my doubts . he will probably sign players who fit into his style which as we know is not pretty . if he does get us up his style will be found out in the prem and we'll be straight back down......definitely !
Agree0
Disagree0
Yes, let's got rid! Neil Warrnock has no proven track record of winning promotions has he? Why don't we go for mark Hughes ? He would be as popular as the rent man.
Agree0
Disagree0
Jedburgh White: with you 100%. Of course Warnock's the man for this job. And very soon history will smile favourably on the Bates era. Not because it has been one of our golden footballing phases, but because we're still in business, and still a name in the sport. Someone had to do it, and it was never going to be pretty. PK
Agree0
Disagree0
Regarding NWs signings he has, in my oppinion, done well with limited resources available. Kenny, Austin, Diouf were all excellent pre season signings and the 2 new boys who played yesterday are both top addittions to the side. I certainly wouldn't describe Jerome Thomas as a 'kick and rush' merchant...if the January signings are of a similar standard to Tata and Thomas I will be a very happy bunny. MOT
Agree0
Disagree0
Sorry to all those of you who think that Warnock is worth the time and investment but, rather than look at his promotion record, look at the legacy he leaves at every club he's inevitably been sacked from. The man's approach is one-dimensional, old-fashioned and ultimately does the club no favours. I'd rather see promotion in a season or two but have someone in there talking about tactics and strategy beyond 'he's direct and that's just what I want'. Even those of you who are behind Warnock know the man has no longevity whatsoever. So why back him at all?
Agree0
Disagree0
To the person who said this "kick and rush players" i take you did not attend the game sat,Tate did not play one long ball infact he brought the ball into midfield which also prompted Lees to do the same instead of long ball all the time never seen Lees do until tate arrived and Thomas passed and moved as well as taking players on REAL KICK AND RUSH STUFF
Go to the games then coment
Batley White
Agree0

I hold my hands up I wrote the "kick and rush" stuff . he proved me wrong by signing Thomas and Tate very good players well done Neil ! I wasn't at the game been to four due to money expensive to take my son too . I just thought particularly against barnsley we were a bit direct . however better players will produce better football Karl mot

Who told you that Warnock not meeting new owners till after palace match to discuss jan transfer,he might not be in a job if he doesn't sort the team out by dec 21.

Read it in paper. May not be true but I think it's possible!

Its on transfer tavern site mate

Warnock will b manager for the season as it would b 2 harsh when hes been messed about for the past 6 months so he needs a fair chance n not alot that can b done with our team at the min anyway.
Agree0

They said before takeover that warnock will get upto 8 mil in jan obviously the paper or what eva have took something from that .
Agree0
Disagree0
In answer to the fourth post, harsh has nothing to do with it, if the new owner/s are serious about having a successful football club and they feel another manager is best to achieve that then bye bye manager, i feel if there is to be a change of manager then it should be now to give the new manager time to understand what/who he needs to change in January.
Agree0
Disagree0
I think it will be more, these people are serious about promotion this season, 15 mill maybe
Agree0

15 mill lol everton dont spend that in the top half premier each year

Everton dont have rich backers
Agree0

Rhodes cost £8 million
Agree0

Why would you give your manager 8 mil to spend on players when he says he will leave end of season? surely better to get rid of him now and give it to someone whos gonna be around for the forseeable future......... warnock out... otley white. {Ed013's Note - I think Neil will be given another season to get it right}
Agree0
Disagree0
Sky post derby/brum match said gfh have little money for perm transfers. Most likely a few loans. Heard/read elsewhere a transfer kitty to be given to NW of around 5/8 mill. So you pay your money and take your chance! I suspect they will try and get investors onboard from mideast,if they haven't already done so?
Agree0
Disagree1
I think it's not gfh's money. It's the rich Bahrain backers. They wouldn't buy a club to just loan players and buy crap. May as well keep bates if we're gonna do that.
+ no one gets to prem by loans and a small transfer kitty. 5mil< I reckon in jan.
Cum'on leeds!!

James Henry, Chris Wood, Ishmail Miller would be useful additions, 8M would be surreal. I think there is outside money backing GFH and all the doubters just need something to moan about.
Agree0
Disagree0
GFH are backed by "one very wealthy individual" according to Bates. Think about it - a company with accounts like theirs theoretically can't afford to buy a football club, so they wouldn't.
On top of that, Bates can sniff out cash, and that means that there's more to GFH than they are letting on. They've also put a lot of effort into making sure that we don't know who they are - to me, all of this means that whoever it is has a hell of a lot of dough.
Agree0

Wood is a shout, try and get scott dann or richard stearman to shore up defence just a little bit another pacy winger defo needed too

If its true then lets get 3 or 4 quality players
in. Need a quick forward, solid Centre half and s couple of flair mid players. MOT

I think we need a striker beccause varney dosent score enogh goals,we cant just rely on becchio and we have mcormack but it might take him a while to get back to form so i think we should sign Jamie Mackie
