Leeds condemn fans homophobic chanting towards Conor Gallagher.

How low can that fanbase go?

Shameful and disgusting. Im sure you will all agree.

And quite rightly so.
I`ve not heard of any other clubs chanting homophobic songs towards Gallagher.
Or if they have it has not been publicised.
There will always be mindless idiots who will do such a thing and we do seem to have our fair share including those who chant racist remarks at players.
I`m sure it would be easy enough to identify them considering the amount of CCTV`s at the ground.

coming from someone who got banned for posting racist statements on here that's pretty hypocritical there marty.
still, suits your agenda

Once again Leeds Utd gain a couple of days advantage this weekend. Brentford playing tonight.

Not Leeds' doing of course, but remarkable how often this happens.

The fixture planners certainly like Leeds Utd thats for certain.

Well said chapylad
Sadly though our society will always have a minority of people that take great pleasure in venting their anger against Homophobia, Racism and also their anti Semitic beliefs
Although I'm very confident that the majority of people that I know are fully acceptable to either of the above criteria
And quite rightly so

Back on topic and LUFC had a great win against Palace, which will ease the pressure on the side
I think that we rode our luck at times as Benteke should have scored with a free header on an open goal

Meslier's save was a real season changer for me, as when sides are struggling then that ball goes over the goal line

A very tough set of fixtures for the club during December with games against:
Brentford (H)
Chelsea (A)
Man City (A)
Arsenal (H)
Liverpool (A)
Aston Villa (H)

So points could be very hard to pick up during this run of games and I would be happy with a win v Brentford and Villa and a draw v Arsenal, anything else would be a bonus

SAw Something last night about some Chelsea fans shouting get in with it, let him die when the game was stopped because of an incident in the crowd. Pure class that guy

7 points from that lot would be a bonus for sure.
I still think Brentford will crumble and go down along with Norwich.
It depends who Newcastle manage to get in January otherwise they could be joining them.

There`s idiotic fans and there`s Chelsea fans who are a different breed.

I knew when i posted about the homophobic chants the responses i would get. A couple would denounce it, and good on them for doing so, but that most Leeds fans would turn it on other clubs.

This has nothing to do with the Rhinos or Chelsea its a problem with Leeds Utd fanbase. Its interesting they way people respond to criticism of their club.

Yep, agree, abhorrent the chanting against Gallagher. No place for it. Hopefully they ban the people responsible. It's a problem still throughout the game that needs stamping out.

Back to the fixtures, 7 point from that lot will be great. Fancy us to sring a surprise though now.. i can see signs of the swagger coming back which will only grow if we can beat Brentford.

I'd say it's a problem with society Marty. We all know your thoughts to all things LUFC but this sort of thing isn't exclusive to Leeds Utd. I find it sickening that in 2021 people think it's acceptable behaviour. I do about of equality, diversity and inclusive work and some of the things I hear from staff is shocking.

Those Leeds bigots, like any bigot in any sport, need finding and making an example of. There's this mentality that if you're in a group, you have a licence to join in. Look at those West Ham fans singing anti semitic songs to that man on the plane and the behaviour at the Euros final. There has to be harsher consequences for anyone found to be involved.
