Match Day Thread Dirty Leeds vs Alehouse Brawlers Championship Playoff Final Sunday 26th May 2024, 3pm

Bookies have them at evens and us at a little over. not much though.

I have put my £96 pot from Bet365 (my only investment was a fiver in that and we went on a losing run so i kept doubling up lol) on Leeds at evens. Win, I lose the pot, lose I get 90 odd quid back towards my day out.

 

Red army

 

This week is gonna go so slowly...

 

Just thinking the same. Maybe it is easier I work with Americans as only one or two realise the magnitude of the game.

 

I guess there has to be some benefit...

 

I've worked with Americans on/in several site and offices in a number of locations. They would often call me the limey I'd come back with septics and explain it was rhyming slang, septic tank - yank, also whores drawers, one yank and they're off. There was a distinct lack of humour with some of my colleagues.

 

I really hope you're £96 richer come Sunday

 

****ing STOKED!

 

That's a shame. See no reason why we couldn't wear red and white if we came to an agreement on socks.

 

Yeah, it's a shame and you'd hope there could be some sort of special dispensation games for what is basically the EFL's showpiece game.

But this rule is what thwarts it...

Fair enough. I get why they have that rule to stop constant changes and profiteering, but I really don't see why a sock colour change would be an issue to allow both teams to wear their home kit in a final.

 

Yeah the black kit is ****. That's a ****ing bullshit call.

 

We won the FA Cup in our non home kit

 

I wouldn't attempt to take those into the ground if I was you lol.

 

And we should have been in a black kit in 2017 but wore that one off one from Bournemouth away instead.

 

Or we've just got a truck load of the 3rd shirts they want to sell off before the end of the season

 

Doesn't matter if we play in black, surely we as fans have to wear red and white. It is what we are

We are red, we are white, we are ******* dynamite!

 

I’m wearing yellow retro shirt

 

Of course it doesn't but I've got to be annoyed/stressed about something or the world goes all out of kilter.

My negative pervasive thoughts about Saints this week include

-The computer not working/crashing whilst trying to book tickets (it was fine)
-Not being able to get the tickets (it was fine)
-My card being declined even though there was easily enough £ in the account (it was fine)

So now my brain has moved on to
-There might be a glitch which means I don't actually have the tickets or
-Royal mail will **** up delivery or
-The bastard train drivers will call a wildcat strike screwing up transport on the day

And now this with the black shirt??? We're doomed, doomed I tell ya!
