    Good Morning Everyone,

    The Scots have been out in force, and have voted No to independence!!!

    Perhaps now we can reintroduce football to them!



    We are now seven games in. The best 5 keepers in the Championship have been revealed.

    Is anyone surprised to see Silvestri in there?



    Which team in the division do you, or have you most looked forward to visiting, and why?



    What is the best Derby you have ever watched?

    Morning Elland. Reintroduce football to the scots? You really are taking the piss. They are at present better than England. Their performance against the Germans confirmed. I don't know if Silvestri is the best in the championship as I'm not familiar with how the others are performing, but he is excellent. He's already kept us in a few games until the others got their fingers out and started playing. I wonder will Cellino leave readers in place for the rest of the season on a game by game basis. It's worked so far, just don't call him the full time coach

    Morning all - Silvestri the best we have had in a while, I wouldn't personally put him as best in the division but he does have age on his side so will hopefully continue to improve. I don't want to put the kiss of death on him but when he runs out to catch the high ball I do feel confident he will make it his.

    No more Alex Salmond, I am sick of hearing his voice. So when do the English get to vote about becoming independent and kicking out the rest? ;) - Just kidding

    Good morning to Matt and his merry men from a very dull and docile Cote De Bardsey
    I have been very impressed with Silvestri for his catching alone I despair by the number of keepers who punch instead of catching the ball don't that realise they are giving the ball away and asking for trouble
    I knew the Scots were a very canny race about like us Yorkies so it didn;t surprise that they voted NO
    I look forward to anyteam as long as we win!

    Morning all <ok>

    I really like Silvestri and i'm surprised to see Robinson ahead of him, he always looks like he has a mistake in him, well at least for the last few seasons.
    Silvestri is the best we have had in a long time and with age on his side, he will only get better. His Mrs certainly brightens up the place as well!

    Scots better than England? No chance and I'm not a massive England fan <laugh>

    Really happy with Silvestri and his performances. Best thing I like about him is the respect he has for the club and the fans! It's great to see him giving away shirts to the younger fans and doing the Leeds salute to the stands!

    If he carries on like this he's going to get player of the season for us

    Morning all

    Not surprised - watched the full 90 minutes on lutv and Silvestri was the best we've had in a long time

    Got to hand it to the scots they've played a blinder - suddenly go from 40% to 51% for YES, a week before the election, scare London ****less and get them to promise the earth if they stay, then back off to 45% - low enough to be no chance of accidentally winning, high enough to stop Lord Cameron and the other toffs from changing their mind. Result - more power and cash for Scotland, without the responsibility of actually having to earn their own living

    Got to admire them - never was the quote 'there is nothing more impressive than the sight of a Scotsman on the make' more true

    ;)

    Afternoon all. Beautifully 2020. Strike me, Salmond could teach Papa Smurf a thing or two about how to extracte money from people without oing anything to earn it. C'est La Vie. Fell sorry for all our Lithuanian and Polish builders now out of work given that they won't now be required to re-build Hadrians wall a few hundred feet hgher?

    On Silvestri, no surprise to see him in the top 5. Looks very useful and will only get better. If I can get a ticket, I'm quite looking forward to the Fulham away match. Let's hope their new Manager doesn't turn them around too quickly. Ross, Beckford and Smith could potentially get a hatful against us.

    Elland, nevermind re-introducing footy to Scotland, can we now have our goalposts back?
