2 games played in The Yorksha League on Saturday. Our's and the Meadowhall Trophy match in Noo Yark Stadium.



Town now can't finish higher than 3rd and along with Rotherham have only 1 game left (against each other). L666s can still catch 'ull, their match on April Fools Day might sort that out.

I thought we were excellent....apart from first couple of minutes when they opened us up and should have scored.
Apart from their goal they didn't look any more dangerous than us, even though they had most of the ball after Hogg was sent off.
Hogg needs to be severely reprimanded for that second challenge. Not by football authorities, but by the club and the players themselves.
They were there for the taking and we let 'em off because of Hogg's stupidity. Bloody idiot. I hope he's man enough to bend over in training and let every other player at the club kick him as hard as they can up the arse.

I think we played well overall, always difficult to do something when you have 10 men, especially against a half decent side. I think the ref lost control of the game very early, the red was deserved, as was the yellow for the first foul, but there were a few other... interesting decisions made by him.

I think koroma offered next to nothing when he came on, didn't have the pace to beat rodon, at times looked like he was towing a caravan behind him, we at least looked capable on the break even with 10 men when burgzorg was on, I think teams are afraid of putting a challenge in as he shifts feet quickly. That being said I don't think bojan would have offered anything different as he's a link up striker and well, we had nothing to link.

I think we've seen in two games that Andre is a proper manager and yes will get things wrong here and there, but he's got a good idea of what he's doing and how to set up in each game. I think he'll prove to be a corberanesque version of Wagner.

I see the bloke that was formerly full of honesty, integrity (and whatever other bx he spouted) has turned up in Cambridge.

I'll take a punt on this. I doubt he'll get an honourary degree for services to Cambridge United Football Club.

Well I agree with jjamez, we were far better set up than we would have been a few weeks ago. We had them on the back foot for a lot of the first half, but what have I read since?

Sooo, based on comments on other forums ....

Hoofball - er not in the first half. You might have had more ball but after the first 5 minutes we were in your half going forward in numbers as much as you were trying to play out. Wtf were you expecting 10 men to do in the 2nd half? We aren't Man Ciy, Liverpool or Arsenal and they play the long ball a lot too when it suits them to beat the press. Watch them.

Town were too physical and hunted Leeds players down in packs - so we ripped a few pages out of the Don Revie Play Book - er, quite. Short memories or too young to know why their dad supported L666s in the 70's-80's and you think they play Barcelona/Man City/Liverpool/Arsenal football now? Hypocrites.

We had more shots on target.
We had more shots saved.
We had more shots blocked.
We had 20% possession.
We had 10 fouls and 5 yellows (2 were for Hoggy)
They had 13 fouls, 1 yellow

1 yellow and the ref also ignored an elbow in a Town players face. Hmmm. Wonder why?
Maybe Don Revie's ghost had slipped a few brown envelopes under the ref's changing room door?

Off we go to Cardiff for another interesting match on Wednesday.

After reading some of the Leeds fans comments, I was wondering what the Billy Bremner statue would think of them.

He'd be embarrassed, mate.

And what's with grown men calling us dog botherers? How very childish. You'd never get us calling them anything immature now, would you?

Bellends!

The most embarrasing thing I saw after the match were a few (obviously by their scarves) let's politely call them 'older end' Town Fans being spoken to by HM Constabulary on the walk back up beyond Leeds Road towards the Railway Station. Goodness me chaps, leave it in the 70's and 80's will you? You aren't teenagers anymore. We don't like them either but it's not worth an hour or 12 in the cells, an appearance in front of the Magistrates, a club ban and maybe the loss of your job. You ain't any better than them when you behave like that.

In reply to jjamez, Koroma and Burgzorg were in the same situation. Burgzorg wasn't happy when he was taken off but the big picture is Cardiff/WBA. Whoever was up front in that 2nd half was on a hiding to nothing and Koroma sat in the defensive line too. OK, that left no outball, but when we had an outball we conceded. Not that I can totally blame Burgzorg for that, it was left defense that let the cross in and central defense that didn't get in before Bamford. But .... where did that move start?

Talking about old idiots, apparently some Labour Party leaflet droppers were attacked in Barnsley yesterday. Now, whatever your politics, is this something that should be tolerated. What upset me more was the amount of laughs it got on Facebook. I'm disgusted and ashamed of what some people think is funny. They laugh about missing persons, they laugh about women (or men) being attacked. I'm sick of this moronic behaviour. I don't want to be a puritan but some things just aren't funny and we should be calling them out. I don't know what's worse; the perpetrators or those laughing at it. Sociopathic aor psychopathic behaviour? I do wonder.

These "laughing heads" are likely off their heads on Columbian Marching Powder. I haven't seen anyone shove a dose up their nose on the bus over The Ainleys (yet), but plenty stink of weed when they get on. They then talk about it like discussing what they had for breakfast ... which was probably Columbian Marching Powder and scrambled brains, or eggs.

Whilst the t'interweb has opened the door to porn for kids (and adults) who previously would have picked up a 2nd/3rd/4th hand sticky version of something like Mayfair, it has also opened the door through Soshul Meedja for every former 'nutter on the bus' to become a 'global nutter on t'interweb'. The likes of Zuckaniceberg don't exactly discourage them. Clicks means cash. At least they are the only one's handling their sticky phone screens or mouses as they forward their links.

There's still plenty of nutters on the bus by the way.
