Good Morning Everyone, I wondered how long it would take for the papers to pick up on this... please log in to view this image Aaron Cowley has been described as : 'Britain's most notorious football hooligan pictured hugging Leeds United goalscorer at game despite lifetime ban' You may recall Cowley was the idiot who punched Wendies keeper Chris Kirkland in 2012. Since then Cowley has done his time, and is serving a six year order banning him from football matches. That being the case, not sure why he posted this pic of himself on social media!!! Stuart Dallas has been withdrawn from the Northern Ireland squad. Dallas joined up with the Northern Ireland squad on Monday and he was withdrawn from the squad after being assessed by their medical team. The 25-year-old hasn't featured for Leeds since suffering a calf injury whilst on international duty last month. Leeds head coach Garry Monk recently said that he hoped to have Dallas back in training with the squad before the next Championship game against Newcastle United on November 20th.
Morning all. Cowley is a disgrace. Vermin and an embarrassment to the club. Should never be allowed near a Leeds game. What was his last exploit forgeriy scam or something
If you get a ban from a pub you dont go in because you'll get lobbed out again. You cannot ban a fan from a football club unless a national system in place where everyone gets scanned going in. Thats a national database that is interfaced around the UK and costs cash so never going to happen and even then it would mean everyone being a club member and those who have match day tickets would still be able to walk in. Fooking joke telling the world that a fan gets a lifetime ban from any football, when everyone knows its meaningless
What is the point of national teams insisting injured players travel to be assessed, and then sent home again. Not like the national manager and his backroom team are fooking busy is it, why not send someone to the club just before squad meets up
Entirely agree. Totally ridiculous. And of course, the time spent travelling (let's call it a day each way, minimum) is time that he's not receiving treatment. This nonsense was introduced because the likes of old red nose used to discourage his players from playing internationals & wrongly claim they were injured. If we had declined to send Dallas, we would have been banned from paying him for a number of days or games. Clubs can't win because of scum's attitude in the past. Where has good sense gone? Perhaps Cellino should make another infamous stand and threaten to sue the IFA for loss of use of a player due to their demands interrupting his recovery programme. He'd lose, of course, just like the Sky debacle, but both would be excellent points in need of debate.
Cowley? Scumbag. How did he get a ticket? As all people entitled to buy an away ticket are registered by Leeds, surely it would be a doddle to print the ticket owners' photo on it, so it could be checked going into the ground. That would stop him and his like. Can't be that expensive to set up. I particularly despise this guy as he has brought bad newspaper headlines to this club on more than one occasion. He should be targeted. Perhaps he should have to sit in a police cell every time we play. For life. A punishment just for him alone. I like the idea. Won't happen, but I like the idea
Maybe every time Leeds are playing he should be forced to watch Millwall, or is that too harsh a punishment?
That's inhumane but would comply with his banning order, he'll see **** all football being played there
it's easy to get away tickets without a membership, all you need is a season ticket holder to apply for you
Surely it cannot be that difficult to figure out who ordered him a ticket. They must be able to work out where he was sat and on whose number it was ordered. Ban that person as well as a deterrent. A few weeks back I had a young lad come in my local. I know his Dad as the whole family are Leeds fans. The lad sat got talking to a die hard rugby fan who doesnt like football and attempted to persuade this guy that football violence is cool. He tried to get me involved but I just laughed and said n f**king way, I enjoy the football and have never been involved in the violence. I was getting annoyed that this young lad was using my club as an excuse for violence and was painting the picture that all Leeds fans are like that. He told me I was wrong for taking my kids in the South Stand as it was not a safe place for them. At this point I was arguing strongly about the stupidity of violence and fighting. The little git carried on winding me up to the point I got off my stool and was going to hit him, at this point the barmaid pointed out that doing that might destroy my argument a little. He did however get the message and shut up. Now to the reason I tell this story. It turns out this lad was part of the trouble in Marseille in the summer and has picked up a banning order from all of the football. He is banned from Elland Road for 3 years, cannot enter Peterborough town centre when Posh, our most local team, are at home and must hand his passport into the police when England are playing. He had just spent half hour telling anyone who would listen what Leeds meant to him and how great the days out are. I just asked him why if he loved these things so much why he would get himself banned. He just winked and said its ok as long as someone else buys his ticket. This is obviously a common thing and shows how pointless a banning order is. Surely the police and clubs need to be coming down on the people, if caught obviously, who are helping these idiots get in. It is wrong that someone like Cawley can get an away ticket when banned but I cannot as I am not loyal enough.
His name is Cawley, most of my family are named Cowley and would be embarrassed to be linked with a Leeds thug
