It's just filled with idiots and transportation is a joke. I'm in no rush to back anytime soon though so that says a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd fancy Burnley to get something at home to Newcastle if they stick 5 at the back like today so Leeds will need something at Brentford. Everton safe if they beat Brentford at home which is incredible considering they were 5 points off 17th just two weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Burnley could easily get a point or 3 from us or Newcastle. Not over yet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The silence is deafening. I stopped posting on Leeds related things well over a year ago, probably March last season.

Enjoyed reading your posts in the past before our games as to who's out of form/injured etc so different to that weird guy on a few years back who had a hard on for us going bust around 2018. As said above interested on your take on the vocal "sack the board" chants. It can't just be sacking Bielsa surely? Perhaps you lost a bit of soul doing better but you'd likely already be down if you keep him, Marsch is still roughly averaging a point a game I think. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just relocated to Derbyshire and am pleased to see villa shirts in shops etc. Half way between Leeds and Brum so that will do for me. Oh, forgot to mention, I hope they go down.

Perhaps you lost a bit of soul doing better but you'd likely already be down if you keep him, Marsch is still roughly averaging a point a game I think. Bit reactionary but I get it too. We knew our problems going into this season and pretty much ignored them, soon as we lost Phillips and Bamford we fell apart. It also feels like they had plans to get Marsch in regardless and while we've had some half decent results with him our performances have been largely shite. Sacking Bielsa is a hard one, half the team looked exhausted after 3 years and the amount of soft tissue injuries we've had is staggering. I fully believe Cooper and Phillips' injuries were brought on by Bielsa and his insistence on outrunning the world, and he routinely overlooked young players for the likes of Tyler Roberts who might be the worst player in the league. Think our fanbase would have taken a relegation with Marcelo over sacking him mid season, not sure where I sit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
