    Good Morning Everyone,

    After a lackluster 90 minutes of football last night, both teams walked away with a point?

    Fair result?

    Not many highlights to discuss, our first shot on target was not until the 84th minute.

    If we compare our overall performance over the last month and compare it to the way we played at the begining of the season, who would have settled for last nights result?




    Darko admitted after the match that Warnock had been dropped in favour of Cooper as he thought was better placed to deal with Blackman's pace!!!

    He also admitted that Adryan is NOW ready for first team action!!!

    But who in the team will give way for him?




    Cellino is due in court today on a tax evasion charge over a 2nd private yacht (Lucky23). Trial in Cagliari. Same judge as before, Dr Sandra Lepore.

    I bloody hope she's a Leeds fan!



    I'm sure we have all seen the violent scenes in North London last night when Galatasaray came to town.

    Who remembers the days when English teams were banned from Europe?

    Who remembers when Leeds were banned from bringing away supporters to European games?




    Spare a though for David Haigh. Whilst being locked up in Dubai he has not been able to honour his bills.

    His monthly outgoings in the United Kingdom amount to £26,000 per month, including such items as £1,000 a month for gym membership, £1,000 on telephone calls and £3,000 a month to a partner, despite his being in custody in Dubai.”

    I think we need to do a cost cutting exercise. In which area's can David shave a little of his monthly costs?


    If you earned £26,000 a month, what would you buy?

    Good morning to Matt and the gang from a very sunny Cote de Bardsey
    I went to the game last courtesy of the genorisity of White jock or should that be redjock now and I think this had stalemate written all over it from very early on.I thought that Cook was and should have been rested so no marks there DarkoMowatt who I have not been impressed with so far showed me some signs last night that he could well prove me wrong.Sloth was mediocre at best so thats where we were unable to get to them
    Austin came on along with Sharp and we loooked like we could penetrate them but why wait so long to put Sharp on!no mayks there Darko
    Doukara is over 6 foot yet he jumps 2 foot and still cant head a ball so lets get him heading please Darko
    COOPER should have been at centreback along with Belluscoli Pearce needs a rest
    Silvestri again shone like a beacon and Byram had a moderate game

    Morning all. Not terribly disappointed at the result. Ive long resigned myself to a mid table finish despite the fact the division this year is absolute rubbish. We've played nine teams so far and none any better than us. Yet another missed opportunity I think but our current lot are a long way off being a pl squad yet.
    Amazed at the high fiasco

    I have all I want at my young age and the most important want his health young Matt
    My MOM was Bianchi I thought he worked tirelessly
    Haigh should not have upset MC has simple as that I fear he will spend many a month in Dubai reflecting on this
    #Cost cutting exercise sell hgis home as he wont need it for a long while cancel his gym membership he should have enough time inside
    Let his partner find someone else as he wont be out for a while she will have to find some other beau to give her 3k a month
    Cancel his credit cards and come to some arrangement offering them £i a month till things get better although from where I am looking at this I doubt he will get another lucrative job in a hurry unless BATES needs him
    Adryan should be at least on the bench on Saturday along with Montengro
    MIKE

    Morning all <ok> A grand a month for a gym membership? Whoevers charging that deserves to be banged up as well!

    26k a month? There would be a few family and lads holidays to be kept apart!

    If you think you are as good as Watford, on the evidence of the game at Vicarage road, then you are living in the seventies my friend.

    Don't think his "partner" is a she mate - it's a South Coast Travel Agent of the male variety <ok>
    There is a list of all the invoices Haigh swindled through the books and **** knows how he expected to get away with it - fraud on a very large scale!!

    Morning everyone

    £26k per month? What wouldn't I buy?! At that rate of earning it'd only be around two years before I'd have enough for a deposit and fees on a house from elland <laugh>

    TC thank you for the update re Haigh I still think that MC with his forensic work told then about the deception brought about by Haigh
    How on earth Haigh thought he could get away with stealing all this money is beyond believe except that he thought he was cleverer than his emplouers and was teflon proof how wrong he was .I doubt he would be able to get a job of any position anywhere unless its with BATES as his lackey.Having read the charges I think they have him bang to rights be interesting in the years to come when he is brought to trial what is defence is

    Its a bit more complicated then that....

    "He said a report by accountancy firm Pricewaterhousecoopers showed there was no evidence he had created fake invoices to illegally divert millions of pounds of funds from GFH."


    A spokesman for Mr Haigh said: &#8220;David continues to maintain his complete innocence of any wrongdoing. He denies all the civil claims made against him. Independent handwriting tests carried out on his behalf have established that the forged signatures on the invoices were not his.&#8221;

    If Haigh has a respected firm like PricewaterhouseCoopers and independant handwriting experts backing him up, its far from conclusive.
