Other Games - 2017/18

[manic-road]

Leeds get a lot of media attention considering their station in football. They've played fewer seasons in the top flight than Birmingham City, haven't played a game in the top flight for nearly 14 years, and even at their best, which was 40-odd years ago now, they finished in second place more often than not.

It's absolutely mental.

Blimey, didn't realise it's nearly 14 years ago.

[Somniloquism]

Moyes is starting off well.

[VILLA MOLE]

Moyes is starting off well.

He really has his work cut out to get his reputation back on track

[Rigadon]

Leeds is a tiny little city in Yorkshire.

here's to the next 114 years without Leeds back in the top division.  They have a obsession with Man Ure similar to what Blues have with us - that's just not normal 

From their sock tabs to that subway
From the walk back  to the station to their smillie badges
Normal Hunter, to the ginger pr--k
Revie, Wilkinson the lot of them
Dirty Leeds

As you can see am not a fan

Fuck me Wolves should have been smashed 4 or 5 the spawny tatters.

[wittonwarrior]

Not sure Wolves are  that good.  We gave them too much respect when we played them  Need to get at their defence.

No it’s quite a big city.  But having spent a weekend there recently, I can say it was a throw back to Brum in 80’s.  Lots of agro and vomit.  I did find one decent street of bars on the Saturday but overall a deeply unpleasant experience.

Moyes is starting off well.

Blaming the players, never a good look for your first game.

Yes, following on from his interview last week when he basically said he'd give it a go and if it didn't work out then, oh well, never mind, eh?, it's looking like he's lost all semblance of a clue. I understand giving your new squad a kick up the arse, but a public blaming? I always assumed that they'd stay up, but they'll have to give Moyes a few months at least to save face and he could do some real damage in that time. This is a splendid start.

I love the phrase 'Agro and Vomit'. It has given me an idea to go on Britain's Got Talent with a couple of unruly puppets with those names.

As for other games, I have loved watching the highlights of the PL games this week. It was a dream weekend to watch and play 'you are the ref'.  To borrow a phrase from a relative of mine who joined us on away trips for a season and apparently managed to see incidents in and around the grounds none of the rest of us did, 'it was going off everywhere'.

The only drawback of West Ham getting relegated would be that it potentially keeps Albion up.

It would be a nice double whammy if the two teams whose name starts with 'West', whose fans seem to believe have a tradition of playing the finest football Britain has ever seen both went down.

[ciggiesnbeer]

Going by managers alone I would put my money on a Moyes/Hodgson double to take two of the spots.

[Chris Jameson]

I don’t like Leeds city centre on a Saturday night, it’s fullof drunken idiots, as is every city centre.
