    Good Morning one and all,

    How are we?

    Barnsley have well and truly put us in our place <laugh>

    During a recent game Tykes fans behind the goal had banners saying "F*** off Steve Evans, Sam Winnall is ours...'

    Just as long as they don't have an inferiority complex <doh>



    Following scans on his hamstring, Chris Wood will be out for a further fortnight!

    The New Zealand international aggravated an existing injury during the Brentford game.



    Rotherham have terminated ex Leeds midfielder Simon Lenighan's contract following an internal investigation.

    You may remember he was convicted of assaulting some young women.



    Evans said he's now aiming for a top 10 finish. Says Leeds have "never really looked like a promotion team" this season.

    Thoughts?



    Berardi will be back in two weeks. Thank goodness.

    Would it be true to say that our defence is the tightest it has been for the last :

    a) 3 years

    b) 5 years

    c) 10 years

    Morning all... I agree we have never looked like a promotion winning team, when I say never I'm not including an odd 45 minutes here and there.

    Defence is pretty solid, very weak in depth though..

    Morning ristac, fair assessment. If we had an aditional very good central defender and a finisher that could score 23 - 25 goals a season we'd be play off material for sure

    First true words he has uttered, it's a good job some were pointing it out all the way from August or there could have been some here kissing the end of self pointed 12 bore short barreled shot guns.
    The happy clappies owe a debt of gratitude to the four people who had the myth nailed from day one! We don't mind managing your unrealistic expectations but some apprecation would be nice.

    Even finishing 10th wouldn't be progress.
    It still represents massive underachievement.
    But more worryingly those we need to compete with have all strengthened in the window and we weakened AGAIN!!!!

    Morning all. Club on the up now, end of seasons accounts will prove thats the case financially and the improvement on the pitch is patently clear. Were as good as virtually any team we meet. Wait till we have two Jordan Rhodes quality strikers in during the summer and watch us fly <ok>

    Glory you've had an agenda with the previous owner and now you have one with the present one, so I reckon whoever takes over you'll still find some reason to pick fault with. Just because some supporters don't try and find a negative in every thing that happens on or off the pitch doesn't make them happy clappy as you say. The supporters aren't stupid and realise that Cellino isn't perfect and the team aren't world beaters. But it's the best that we have at the moment.<ok>

    Shaks, the happy clappy reference is a retort made in fun as response to the wrist slasher jibes............ using your argument just because others don't believe that things are better on or off the pitch doesn't make them wrist slashers or glum.... it's just opinions.....

    Precisely which previous owner do you think I misjudged then? Bates of GFH? Can't wait for this!
    But on my way to two appointments now.

    Four ? how many accounts do you have ? Every word wrong again and while we may not have strengthened in the window as much as you would like,we are stronger.Byram had 2 good games all season,Dave has had 2 out of 2.much better.<ok>

    The only things you have got right all season was.Bridcutt will sign for Brighton not us.-----------ok scrub that one
    Cook is being sold in the transfer window---------ok scrub that one
    Taylor is being sold in the transfer window------ok scrub that one
    Cellino will pocket all the Byram money and wont buy anyone---------ok scrub that one
    Bolton will knock us out of the cup----------ok scrub that one.

    No I was wrong you ain't got anything right but 3 months left you never know.<ok>

    To be fair, after working their way to the top following a slow start, at least Derby are walking it now. Good job Mike got himself banned, he would feel like such a tit now

    You're entitled to your opinion Glory. I've no problem with your opinions. It's hard like you've said to judge tone on here. All I'm saying is that you are on a mission like you were with Bates/GFH(yes you were right regarding those twats) but a lot of us didn't want any Chelsea ****s at the club, never mind a renowned anti Leeds Utd fecker running the club. I'm not a Cellino fan, like I've said before, I support the club and players. I just can't understand why you have to turn anything that is a positive at the club into a negative. Anyway I'm tired of this subject, you won't change your opinions now, so I'll just let you get on with it..<ok>

    What's with all this Glory Baiting, leave the poor twat alone, he's upset enough because no one as applied to be his PA,
    can't blame anyone though, apparently tossing him off is part of the job description
