That's the sort of release clause a club would only put in if they thought that there was no chance that they could be involved in a relegation fight.

Bit of Latin for the The Leeds fans: veni, vidi, descendi

I don’t know. We loan players to lower-division teams, like Leeds, to develop them on our behalf. There’s no doubt that it was quite a beneficial exercise for us last time.

I just remember during the 2020 transfer window with TB stating that he didn’t want to be selling our best players to one of our rivals. The outrage that this caused amongst their fan base that Brighton - going into their 4th consecutive top-flight season - could consider themselves in the same...

Not quite the same though. It’s one thing believing that match officials have a sub-conscious bias towards the big club; it’s a completely bat-shit theory that we would intentionally throw away 6 points that could have been the difference between European football or not.

This seems to have gone under the radar a bit, but Cody Drameh has been on loan from Leeds to Luton since January and has been a regular starter at wing back, including for yesterday’s play-off final 😝 Cue Alanis Morisette.

To be fair, they did quite well in that first season, but it was all down to Bamford and Phillips having the season of their careers. Their recruitment since they've been in the Premier League has been shockingly poor and despite spending plenty they've somehow ended up with a weaker squad 2...

To be fair it is winnable for them, but winnable is a bit of a broad description. It seems a bot odd to put us in the same bracket as Palace, Forest and Leics, who are in that group of 9 teams, including Leeds themselves, that could realistically be relegated.

The most LOLs thing about this is that on one hand they thought they had a moral right to sign Ben White on the cheap due to his progress with Leeds that same season, despite the fact that we refused their loan-to-buy proposal because we knew what massive potential he had; and on the other hand...

Depends on how well they spend the £90m they've received in fees, I suppose. Spoke to a Leeds fans last summer who wondered if we would struggle when we lost White for 50m last year, but there's no doubt our squad improved when we spent 35m of that fee on Cucurella and Mwepu with change to...

I wonder if that includes the £18.5m (+1m interest) that the Court of Arbitration for Sport has recently ruled that they have to pay RB Leipzig due to a loan-to-buy clause for a player that they didn't want to sign permanently?

Absolutely this. Burnley could get stuffed in the lunchtime KO, but it won't stop me singing 'down with the Norwich/Watford' with gusto if we're beating them.

I suppose if you read it enough times on social media, you start believing that it's true. I'm sure White enjoyed his season at Leeds. He played every week in a dominant, Championship-winning team - what professional sportsman wouldn't enjoy that? The assertion that that one season has somehow...

If Southgate were to put a red line through every defender that has been undone by Foden this past year then he'd probably be limited to only having Man City defenders in the squad.

That's excellent - genuine LOLs.

Nothing says tactically outsmart like an aggregate score of 0-3 and the opposition keeper barely having a save to make over the two games (Leeds aggregate xG over 180 minutes was a massive 0.76).

Who took his place as DM when he was unavailable last season? Easy enough for him to just slot in again, surely?

And two comma splices in three sentences. Northern dullard.

The writing used to write ‘Bielsa’ looks like the font used on the front cover of the comics marketed towards 3-7 year old girls that my 2 like.

The Reading game was actually still going on when Ulloa scored the winner - I was flicking between channels all afternoon. They’d got the news that we were ahead and were pressing for a good 3-4 minutes to try and get a winner themselves, which included the Burnley keeper scrambling one off he...
