What a disgrace of a Club, Team Chelsea are these days, stealing a living, and only turning up to play when there’s a trophy on the line, hope fellow cheaters Citeh smash them in the FA Cup.

04 May 2026 19:30:21
Clubs don't win trophies with that policy in football class.
Still sticks in my throat that we didn't beat Cheatski.
Looking forward to us thrashing them again at Elland Rd. next season.

05 May 2026 01:11:22
Chelski are only 5pts ahead of us with 3 games to go. We may yet overtake them.

05 May 2026 08:17:46
Wouldn't that be fantastic, JR. Six straight losses in the league for Cheatski now, bottom of the form table, and away at Liverpool next.

05 May 2026 08:45:37
And long may it continue.

05 May 2026 12:39:17
That would be so funny, JR!

05 May 2026 16:10:34
Chelski's performance yesterday was as bad as Villa's on Sunday. Gift wrapped 3 points for the opposition.

04 May 2026 17:04:06
Well Villa and Chelsea have done us no favours. Let's hope Arsenal don't bottle it at Spam otherwise it's going to get messy.

04 May 2026 17:35:16
Chelsea and Villa can't stand them.

Next week I am a Goooonners fan ..

04 May 2026 17:36:29
It's going to be fine, Prime. Forest still below us, and they still have Newcastle, Devon and Bournemouth to play.

For me, West Ham are done!

05 May 2026 04:50:15
Yep. Be surprised if Mr Summerville isn't playing champ football again next season. With City drawing, will give Gunners the boost to go for jugular v spam.

05 May 2026 16:12:58
Yes, my only time supporting Arsenal for 90 mins next Sunday. It would be good going to Spurts on Monday knowing we are mathematically safe.

04 May 2026 16:36:22
Well, doesn't look like Forest are too worried about Thursday, karma coming for Vile hopefully. It is one of life's beautiful ironies that all those Spam fans, who have been rather derogatory about us, next Monday are gonna be Leeds supporters. All love to hate us, but occasionally, they hate to love us. We win for nobody except ourselves, suck it up sausages.

04 May 2026 17:39:23
We got a pretty bad recent record at Spuds.

With the recent Spuds momentum, they will be favourites to beat us and then Chelsea, imo.

We are really relying on Goonners beating West Ham.

04 May 2026 17:57:19
Lol Baz, I do have to wonder sometimes if some on here have any faith in our boys, we aint relying on anyone except ourselves. We had a bad record at OT, did we not?

04 May 2026 18:04:45
Very true, Davey, about our record at OT, and our very welcome, pleasant, surprising win there this season.

I hope we smash Spuds. Another pleasant surprise.

04 May 2026 18:06:40
Vidlufc, me old mate. Some just see it a different way, perhaps. We think more than some, who knows. It's all fun being a Leeds supporter. 😄

04 May 2026 18:12:29
Baz, Spurs have a terrible record against Chelsea with one win in 88 games, or thereabouts.

04 May 2026 19:04:05
1 win in 88, Corky???

Chelsea defo have a good record vs Spuds in past ten games..

But would you bet on this current Chelsea side to beat Spuds or any side for that matter. 🤔

And correct stats are:
H2H 180 matches.
Chelsea have won 82 matches.
Spuds have won 55 matches.
Draw 43 matches.

04 May 2026 20:51:26
Last thirty games, Chelsea have won 18 and Tottenham 5. Nuff said.

04 May 2026 21:05:52
Cork, got a feeling Baz wants Spurs to avoid relegation and beat us on the way also!
Wtf.

04 May 2026 22:09:43
Not at all, OP! I hope we smash Spuds!

05 May 2026 07:41:46
Well, it's unlikely we'll smash them, Baz, since, as you've already posted, we are not favorites and can't win in London. Let's hope for a miracle then.

05 May 2026 08:04:34
Hope vs expectation.

05 May 2026 13:59:04
We aren't doing all that badly ourselves for momentum, Baz.

04 May 2026 10:04:58
Nobody has mentioned Crystal Palace. They’re currently below us on goal difference, and should they lose their game in hand against Everton, their remaining fixtures are City away, Brentford away, and Arsenal at home. Hopefully Everton beat them, and it’s very interesting.

04 May 2026 11:36:13
A very valid point, C&J.

04 May 2026 11:37:52
Think the writing is on the wall, C&J, where on earth are Wet Spam getting enough points to survive, let alone all the teams above them losing all theirs as well. They are gone imo.

04 May 2026 11:44:11
Agreed re West Ham. I would be very surprised if they got anything v Arsenal, and if they don't, we're safe. I also think Spurs may be lulling themselves into a false sense of security, having just played two poor teams.

04 May 2026 12:10:31
C&J, yes, a very good point. 👍

04 May 2026 13:12:44
West Ham sneaking a draw against Arsenal will, in all reality, be enough as goal difference is heavily in our favour.

04 May 2026 13:26:33
I do think it looks like the Hammers are gone, especially after their awful display against Brentford yesterday, but we all know football is a funny old game. Should the unthinkable happen, and they win their remaining fixtures, I was looking at Palace; with them almost in the Europa Conference League final, they will be going all out for that.

If they lose their game in hand against Everton, they have a very difficult last 3 games. We just need to carry on doing what we have been doing, and we will be fine. Great spirit throughout the team.

04 May 2026 13:36:23
Spam for me. Gone. Awful yesterday. Prefer Spuds, but they can go next season with Coventry and Ipswich. 💪👍

04 May 2026 14:21:48
Also C&J, don't forget Palace have the further distraction of a Euro Conference League game against Shakhtar Donetsk this Thursday.
To all those Bournemouth, Brentford and Brighton fans yearning to be in Europe next season, I say "be careful what you wish for".

04 May 2026 14:27:35
It's a good shout re Palace in the mix, and their remaining fixtures.

As others have said, Arsenal beat West Ham away next weekend, and we are finally mathematically safe.

Arsenal have a very good recent record at West Ham, thrashing them in both past 2 seasons.

West Ham 2 vs Arsenal 5.

And

the rather shocking

West Ham 0 vs Arsenal 6.

05 May 2026 01:05:44
If Spuds go next season with Coventry & Ipswich, Aus, that would mean the Champo playoff winners have to survive? Who do you prefer, Millwall, Soton, Boro, or Hull? I'd say anyone but Millwall. My wife's cousins in WA are Boro fans, so I'm hoping they come up.

05 May 2026 01:19:39
Southampton.

05 May 2026 01:44:21
Preferably Hull; or Millwall.

Defo not Southampton. They would be the strongest of the 4 clubs.

05 May 2026 05:52:28
I'm WA jr. Mandurah.

05 May 2026 07:33:30
Hull for me. Love the banter between my fishing mates who are ully gullys.
I lived on the coast for a lot of years, so banter has always been good!

05 May 2026 11:22:56
One of my wife's relatives is in Scarborough, and the other is very near you in South Yunderup, tho she's more of a West Coast Eagles fan nowadays - very strange game AFL!

05 May 2026 11:54:50
Bloody orrible game, Jr. Don't get it. They get a point for missing lol. Wussies. South Yunderup pub does great food. Scarborough above my price range.

05 May 2026 19:55:50
We might have visited that pub last time we were there. By the time we left, I thought my name had been changed to Pom, but food was good.

{Ed's Note - Reddevilfan has posted a new article entitled, How United Get Back to Title Contention

04 May 2026 06:52:28
We could be setting history again by being the first club to be relegated on 43 points.

04 May 2026 07:41:03
Don't be a pickle, White. I despair. Alternatively, we breach the 50 point barrier and it really doesn't matter what other teams do, it's all about the mighty Leeds. 😁

04 May 2026 08:10:35
Just a bit of fun, Vidlufc, but you just don't know, it might be a good one. Betting odds. 🤦‍♂️

03 May 2026 20:55:00
Makes the Arsenal game at West Ham next Sunday interesting to say the least. Did not enjoy watching Villa show so little interest tonight. Will be a real fight Monday week. 🤞

03 May 2026 21:43:07
Hope Forest beat Vile in Euro Cup ..

03 May 2026 21:45:13
Arsenal beat Spam, we're definitely safe. Even a draw, the goal difference is massive. Still think we will do it comfortably ourselves.

Hope we smash (beat) my brother supporting Spuds.

03 May 2026 22:15:35
I have no concerns for us anymore, but I'll be very curious how the game will turn out against Spurs.
I think we'll put in a better effort than Villa did, with their thoughts clearly focused on another match.

I'm not sure how I'd feel as a Spurs fan, elated that they might have a chance of avoiding relegation, or cheated that their players have only just started to play with passion in the last few games of the season.


I still think they are an emotional basket case, ready to implode.
If that Villa goal had been ten minutes before the whistle went, I think the panic from them would have gone into overdrive.

I'm pretty certain it's going to be a very entertaining game.

04 May 2026 00:20:37
Spuds are no longer a struggling side.
7 points out of 9 with De Zerbi.
And showing a lot of fight and talent.

04 May 2026 00:46:05
Luckily for us, we also have 3 wins in 4 games and unbeaten in 6 in the league.

04 May 2026 05:44:56
I don't think you can say Spurs are not struggling anymore when they are only one point out of the relegation zone. Anything can happen in these last few games.
The big pendulum of fate will swing not only for who will go down, but also for the title between Arsenal and Man City.

04 May 2026 06:02:31
I don't care which one of the two goes down, as long as one of them takes ownership of the last trap door spot, and quick.
To me Spuds have got a bit of momentum. Saw the highlight of spam game, and their defending was atrocious. Eenie meanie minie mow.

04 May 2026 06:06:51
OP, Spurs are doing under De Zerbi what one thought they definitely had the potential to do.. namely go on a crucial run of winning games.

Imo, Spurs are not going down.. regrettably so from our perspective!

Some peeps were far too naively dismissive of their chances of staying up!

04 May 2026 06:31:57
Like Aus, I couldn't care less who stays up or goes down, but one thing for sure is, I really want us to beat Spurs at their ground, where they have only won twice this season in the league, and one of those games was against Burnley.


Let's see how they do against a team who will put up a proper fight against them.
Then we can watch how the great De Zerbi deals with it.

04 May 2026 06:34:46
We'll counter Spuds to death, I reckon. They're going to have to come at us, so I think Farke will defo be working the boys on fast, direct break aways. Yes, the Spuds will be buoyed by their performance and the result, but their confidence will be brittle AF, and, as we've seen with our own team, a few misplaced passes / a sloppy bit of defending, etc., can undermine a lot of good work.

Gotta doff yer cap at De Zebri, tho.

04 May 2026 09:08:16
Villa gifted Spurs the 3 points last night by making 7 changes.

04 May 2026 10:26:41
Let's not get carried aaay with De Zerbi and Spurs, so called excellent form. They struggled to beat Wolves, who actually were the better team, and then they do Villa reserves. They play a proper team next.

04 May 2026 14:28:54
Corkey, the Villa team last night included Martinez, Mings, Tielemans, Sancho, Rogers and Abraham, and Watkins, Buendia and Bailey came on off the bench - not a bad lineup for "reserves".

04 May 2026 15:12:59
I see your point, JR, but they still made seven changes.
