Good Morning Everyone Leeds United stars took some time away from football last night to head to the MOBO awards, with players having earned a chance to enjoy themselves following two wins from their past three matches. Players including Luke Ayling and Vurnon Anita headed to The First Direct Arena in Leeds to see some of Britain’s most popular music acts in action, and fans will hope their men will be inspired by the winners when they entertain Aston Villa on Friday evening. The tie with Steve Bruce’s men will be no easy task for Thomas Christiansen’s side, with the Villains on the surge following an excellent run of form. Victory for the visitors would take them into third place, although a comfortable win for the hosts has the capacity to propel Leeds back into the play-off places for the first time in weeks. A picture shared of Leeds players at the event has attracted much interest on Twitter, no doubt due to the eccentric fashion of the players involved. Fans took to the social media site to have their say on their heroes attire, and it is safe to say many were not impressed by what they saw… please log in to view this image Leeds United ✔@LUFC please log in to view this image | Several of the #LUFC squad took time out to support tonight’s #MOBOAwards, and all those who were nominated at the @fdarena #MOBOvation pic.twitter.com/1KCNzpsRFO please log in to view this image Foz@chrisfozard Anita looks like a pimp and Ayling looks like a busker trying to find fame on X Factor. 29 Nov please log in to view this image Leeds United ✔@LUFC please log in to view this image | Several of the #LUFC squad took time out to support tonight’s #MOBOAwards, and all those who were nominated at the @fdarena #MOBOvation pic.twitter.com/1KCNzpsRFO please log in to view this image Lee Thompson@lufcThommo Meanwhile.. new Leeds boy band MOT MOT MOT on the red carpet! #lufc pic.twitter.com/BCkf7zNjeS 10:51 PM - Nov 29, 2017 please log in to view this image Off topic but interesting... please log in to view this image please log in to view this image
Morning Elland and everyone else, chilly again this morning. I was looking up statistics for this seasons best players so far, Villa and Wolves have half the Championship team of the season (so far) between them.. https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1193368/Preview/England-Championship-2017-2018-Leeds-Aston-Villa Interesting comparison
Good morning from a very chilly Bardsey to Matt WJ Eric and Kevin and Rik and co You haven't told me where you heard the rumour about Alex Tonight will be a big test they spent more money on Scot Hogan than we have spent in 15 years! Scot was bought for £12m I wanted him and thank goodness we didn't enter the bidding because I valued him after his awful injury level at £4m I believe he has played only a couple of games and has been injured again.It is always risky to buy a player whose injured a lot Between him and Mc Contract they have spent £25m so for spending power they beat us hands down
Good morning all. Yet again example of obsene gap between spending in pl and championship. Big Sams 18 month Everton contract is worth 9 million. That’s why we won’t be appointing big name British coaches in foreseeable future. I’m not looking forward to tonight’s game at all I must admit. Hope I’m wrong. Can I be first today to say Klich, Klich, Klich
That picture’s quality. Do you think bpf and Anita were given different interpretations of the dress code?
Evening all, Matt, 60, Eire, Ristac.. We are in Christmas mode here, lights out, Barbie prepped and christmas tree ready for decoration, but obviously no snow We are going to beat Villa - don't know why but there is something in the air !!??
looks like you then Not very friendly of me - how have you been Matey, been doing anyhting intersesting or just chillin'. We have just got to summer and the weather is just fine
Morning all and yes a big game tonight and if we win the wheels be back on the bus and many will say quite rightly money cant buy promotion. If however we lose to a very good side with a very switched on shrewd manager, the whilst will still be off, sack Tommy and we need to spend a lot in January to get promotion. Parachute payments are the nemesis of this league which gives poor prem teams a huge advantage over anyone in the championship who isnt on parachute payments. Those payments are much more than an average championship team makes in a whole season. Fooking joke and almost half the clubs in our league are on them
Good to have it back. Could be out the window by 9.30 tonight though. Potential for big bust up with the Villa loving son in law
Hi guys looking forward to the game tonight hopefully we can take advantage of villas injury problems. Feel if we get a result tonight we could have a really good December and really push on to get back in the playoff places , lose and I think it could be a long month and mid table mediocrity. Anybody else think it would be a good idea to man mark adomha cutting off there goals supply? Come on Leeds we can win this
With Gayle now starting regularly for the barcodes and now starting to score in the prem can we put to bed the absurd suggestion we could sign him in January as part of what will be a squad of a hundred players listening to some of you!
I predict we will only sign loans and more foreign ****e from serie b and the kraut equivalent. But some will still believe we have unearthed Messi Mark 2.
