    Its a nice spot 10 minutes from the coast, half hour from The airport and a cracking little municipal stadium in the town. So in reality its near where thousands of Brits are on holiday, just slightly north of Valencia

    This is another bit thats going under the radar as Bielsa’s first team coach and translator Diego Flores left Bielsa’s coaching team to take up the role of first team coach back in Argentina. Bielsa is chuffed for him but hes also doing a great job. Apparently he has upset the team by dropping superstars and then winning them all back over with his coaching and results. The fans love him and the football is brilliant. Early days but a chip off the old block?

    Would still love to see a partnership with this club and our academy would be a win win. Pablo as liaison and assisting in coaching and a great place for a few kids to learn their trade under the watching eye of our loans manager and Bielsa techniques

    Just read on social media a debate between some Leeds fans in regards to Radz. One fan commented he (Radz) Loves Leeds United. Another replied sarcastically “Yes so much so he brought ER under a different company and charges LUFC £3m a year in rent”. If true I never realised this. I understand why, just never knew.

    Its bollox and always was bollox. He had to buy the ground himself because if he didnt it would double the value of the £5m we still owed the arab bandits. Buying the ground effectively doubled the price of the club as we now had assets. Once we paid off the arabs the ground was sold to the full Leeds Utd holding company in which 49ers and others were part of. Radz got his cash back without any profit. Oh and he never charged the club for using it ffs so in effect he saved the club the lease they were paying before

    Tip of the day.

    Don't rely on social media. In fact just don't look at it. You'll be much happier.

    It’s a Leeds United group mate, just that it’s hosted on FB otherwise the same as this group, Leeds fans discussing and debating everything Leeds

    Nothing wrong with that except for the fact that someone hears something and decides its true before checking which then spreads like wildfire. On here is for example it was Ristac who said he was disgusted by Radz because ….. one of us in here would have said no its bollox and heres the proof. End of story but on Social Media you can say shyt and millions could see it and repeat a lie?

    That’s why I said “If True” mate, at least I can copy and paste your comment on the replies now… Well I can when my 24hr Facebook comment and post ban ends…

    Someone posted about the protests on the M25 I replied “Just run them over” apparently that’s inciting violence

    I get it that they were goosed after an hour. If you think back to the days when we had Mowatt & Cookie playing, they were always goosed early in their first season - not just their debut. And this came after they followed the normal protocol of a regular period of coming on as a sub to help acclimatise them.

    However, times have changed at Leeds. Never have our players been so fit, and never have we played with such consistent intensity for donkey's years. Bielsa's key measure for familiarising themselves with intensity is the dreaded Murderball, which is far more intense than any football match. I believe that our future debutants, particularly through Murderball, will be far more able to acclimatise quickly than they ever have before at Leeds - and also puts us ahead of most clubs in helping debutants cope with that step up.
