Honestly the goldilocks mentality that I though belonged purely to the youngsters of today is all too apparent on here from our elder members. You wanted changes, you got changes and it didn't work. Clearly what we have here is a young inexperienced team who are struggling under pressure. So are Ipswich and Leicester and even Soton. This is football - if you don't like it then I suggest you pick up your dummies and maybe find another hobby - might I suggest Crown green bowling?

Good post Alf. In saying that Farke obviously thought changes were needed as I don’t think he reads this site.
Personally I wanted changes made basically to freshen things up. But as you say it didn’t work ?
We still in it though!

Cuppa, whilst you put kettle on (black coffee, 2 sugars, thanks).
Did MJ start? Did DJ start?
I agree teams are feeling pressure obviously.
But DF is plenty experienced and it sounds like your goldilocks nonsense is just bitterness on your part you having championed him, and him coming up short.
A slice of cake would be nice too Alf. cheers.
13 Apr 2024 22:30:52
Love it alf my thoughts exactly
Yes I’m dissapointed and gutted but still think we’ve done well. And still proud to be leeds.
13 Apr 2024 22:36:21
DJ has been awful since international break, MJ did zero after coming on.
13 Apr 2024 22:50:17
DJ almost scored ; has 21 goal contributions
MJ given just 9 mins this match 7 mins previous match . Ridiculously by Farke
Leave your bias to one side Alf.
13 Apr 2024 22:54:57
. and perhaps go easy on the young rhetoric
AG and WG yes
But DOL babes team was younger overall
Smith, Woodgate, Kewell, Harte, McPhail, Robinson. all teens .

Great post Alf ?
Baz, DJ didn’t warrant a starting place after the last couple of outings, he was truly awful against Sunderland.
13 Apr 2024 23:19:11
James has been piss poor for a number of weeks now and well before the international break.
But because Baz bigged him up pre season he won’t let it go.
14 Apr 2024 00:54:39
Alf Oversimplified analysis. This is what you get when you ignore tiredness.
14 Apr 2024 01:33:54
Whar yer on about Corky . take 3 matches immediately prior to international break DJ was scoring winner against Stoke, scored against Millwall .
MG . no one played well against Sunderland. prior to that DJ scored the wonder goal against Hull
Keep it real fellas.
14 Apr 2024 02:54:38
Baz They can't. They also ignore how we correctly predicted our demise. Name me any trade or profession where tiredness doesn't affect performance. Sport and football ⚽ not exempt. This is why rotation is a thing. All stemmed from there. One person responsible. Farke.
14 Apr 2024 09:12:15
DJ has been terrible, like Alf said. I wouldn’t have even brought him on yesterday.
14 Apr 2024 14:26:59
Incredulously not much " hot tubbung " by the hot tubbers bashing DJ . without his 21 goals contributions Leeds wouldn't even be in top 6
Furthermore DJ player rating higher than many other Leeds players
Leeds Live ratings vs Blackburn
JP 3, CS 4, PB 5 GR 5
DJ 6
Graham Smyth YEP
JP 4 CS 5 PB 5 GR 5 DJ 6
Keep it real fellas.
14 Apr 2024 15:06:09
We are talking form there Baz. You can’t deny he has been off it since the internationals. No one has slagged his performance as a whole this season, only sung his praises.
14 Apr 2024 15:07:34
I’m not sure what saddens me more.
The defeat yesterday, or reading someone revelling in predicting a downturn of results, and wanting credit / recognition for it. Very, very sad.
14 Apr 2024 15:16:47
Bright keep it real / factual fella
Last 5 games I have predicted Leeds wins.
14 Apr 2024 16:05:07
Wasn’t talking about you Baz!
14 Apr 2024 16:17:30
No credit or recognition sought. Gives me no pleasure. I saw it coming and advised OP strenuously for Farke to rotate but my warning wasn't heeded. Usually, when you ignore George advice, you pay the price.
14 Apr 2024 16:17:58
Bazadamus Bright referring to yours truly.
14 Apr 2024 16:48:11
OK Brighty and George.
14 Apr 2024 17:22:03
Erm. OP can’t influence team selection, and no one here has the influence at club level to “heed” any warnings at all. You have the wrong website, and / or, are talking to the wrong people George!?
14 Apr 2024 18:24:49
Brighty the ???.
14 Apr 2024 20:21:27
Lol! Wow! That doesn’t even make any damned sense! ????.
