Back on topic. Handshake, pen, number 2 and number 4. 

Number 2 left today. For Antwerp. Samba is number 4. I wonder if they are about to retire him.

These tweets remind me of the clues on 3-2-1

Never mind Tony's tweets, the club's usually-awful Twitter game has stepped up significantly today with this near-viral gem referring to Leeds' horrendous new badge: https://twitter.com/AVFCOfficial/status/956190305535086592

We'll definitely lose that match now.

Your not alone Ed. It's to do with PES-which is some kind of online game, I think. Those that know the reference are pretty impressed.

LOL yes it's a Pro Evo reference. You might be confused if you've never played it or say only played FIFA where the names and badges of the clubs are all correct. With Pro Evolution even though the gameplay is excellent it's annoying that the team names and badges are awful which is what the Twitter page is referencing. It's clever.

Pro-Evo (6 for those of us around the 25-30 mark) was the best football game going. But it didn't have the licences for names, badges, kit, players, as FIFA had that covered. Konami wouldn't stump up and you could edit it all if you wanted, we were and likely still are West Midlands Village.

It's a very amusing tweet.

Normally brands/clubs taking the mick out of each other on Twitter looks ridiculous (we've got into a ludicrous and unfunny exchange with Virgin Trains in the past if I remember correctly) but this one, implying their atrocious new badge looks like its out of a 2006 video game - which it does - is unusually witty

I didn't get it either.

The new Leeds badge looks like the starting position for a Nazi salute.

I now get it - and yes very good banter. Though never played PES, so had no idea about the badges.

Like the one where someone has drawn a wrist watch on the hand, “waiting for the game to finish”.
