    Mackail-Smith to Leeds rumour picking up...

    Given all the feel good sport themed movies I grew up with, yes, anything is possible. But it will require dedication, positive attitudes, and a training montage set to kenny loggins or other 80s synth-heavy rock music.

    Mackail-Smith to Leeds rumour picking up...

    I'm not denying any of your criticisms or arguments, just the claim that he had low confidence because he wasn't starting. He was starting. The only league game he didn't feature in was when he had a virus, of the other 45 he started 40 (the most of all strikers, greer and bridcutt are the only...

    Mackail-Smith to Leeds rumour picking up...

    He started our first 29 league games. It was 26 games before he was taken off significantly before the end of the game. The only game he didn't start prior to February this year was v Gillingham, because he was called up for the scotland squad. Of 46 league games he started 40, and the six he...

    Mackail-Smith to Leeds rumour picking up...

    Are you kidding? All last season people were criticising Barnes' poor first touch and control as if it was any worse than average for our team. Neither are notably worse than the rest of the team, or most average championship players. Just people who want to dislike a player will make note of...

    Ryan Harley scored two goals. He would be top scorer if he also took 7 penalties instead of Barnes... oh.

    Yeah, but with your bridge/kuszczak comments you didn't vow to nail your bollocks to a table singing my old man's a dustman up and down the pier if you were right.

    The stats are for the league only. He took 4 league penalties and scored 3 of them. The other three penalties he took were v liverpool, gillingham, and wrexham (and as it was in a shoot out the wrexham one wouldn't be included in his stats, not as a goal not as a shot). Even Messi misses...

    If you accuse someone of having bad stats, then the stats should actually be bad. If not, you are wrong. He was accused by somerset of needing ten shots to get one shot on target, even if you take out the penalties, this is not true. It goes from 33% (fractionally over 3/10) of shots are on...
