Guys a word of warning if you are going to the Hedley Verity. Take you passport with you for id. They have a major hardon for id-ing folk in there and ive personally seen them refuse service to a 40+ year old in there for that reason. They id me 4 times in 3hrs when i went in before and im 29.

I'm not going in for it. Alot of the Stick & Twist staff work there now and they we're ID happy in that doss hole.

A win today. Keep our record.

Re: OT - All New Leeds United thread : Sat Aug 07, 2010 8:23 pm  

Centre Mids are absolutley useless for this level. We'll ship a shedload of goals without 2 new CMs who have positional awareness & ability to track and take and hold the ball (and centre halves who don't back off after the inevitable midfield mistakes). We'll score plenty, but we'll let in more, even with a proper goalkeeper, which Kaspar looks.

Div. One performance today from Div. One team. Could be easily predicted.

Beaten on his near post today.

Not a great start, Derby will be unlikey to finish in the top half, so a game we should have won.

Poor crowd. May struggle to make 20k average this season

Agree not the best goal to let in, even if hit like a rocket. But he made enough excellent saves, where he was totally exposed by errors in front of him, to be forgiven for that and, overall, he had a good game, certainly one of Leeds' top few performers.

Just don't bring me to write his surname.

TBF I haven't watched the full game, just the goals, and several people have said he made some class saves

A bit of stage fright,lack of quality in midfield and a dodgy penalty today.
The keeper was outstandin imo and Becchio and Sam will no probs at this level some positives to build on and a rude awakening for some others.

Pen looked cast iron to me. I'm not too disheartened, but teams like Derby are ones we should be beating
