    General Election 2019

    I should have spoiled my ballot but didn't. This is my gut feeling. I didn't vote during these elections because I wanted to send a message that I was unhappy about Labour leaks and the political attack on Corbyn. I couldn't bring myself to offer unity to the right of the party when they...

    Out of contract players this summer

    I like Mal and I get the impression that he is a solid professional and reliable person on the whole. However, I think he has stayed with us for too long and should be looking at League One before Port Vale in order to prove himself at a higher level. I always thought there was some hunger...

    Will Leeds be relegated?

    Leeds strengthened better than Sheff Utd did in their respective first seasons in my opinion. Sheff Utd brought in no-one comparable to Raphinha's quality, for example. If Robin Koch is comparable in ability to Llorente, and Bielsa and his backroom team continue to identify players of last...

    Prince Phillip

    Proper peasant mentality this. Sorry but it is. From a family point of view it's sad that he died, but our interests are in no way aligned and for that reason I don't care at all what they are up to.

    RIP Lee Collins

    I liked him. He never let us down. RIP

    Will Leeds be relegated?

    They need some upgrades e.g. more players of Raphinha's quality but in other positions so that Alioski, Klich etc become reliable back up players.

    Will Leeds be relegated?

    Llorente has looked accomplished today, although Leeds have looked flat against Villa. Klich quite poor and not sure what Tyler Roberts brings. Hernandez surely better option to start.

    Which sides do you want to see come up from the Connie?

    I think of a lot of these teams still as league sides. I forget Barnet, Aldershot, Dagenham etc. have been relegated. Out of everyone in that division Wrexham and Stockport are my picks for returning, based on how long they have been gone. I would like County and Chesterfield back but not yet.

    Except no-one is bothered that you won. Well done on the win.

    Tuesday 16th February & Wednesday 17th February

    He was just getting wound up about it for no reason. Sometimes there are frozen or waterlogged pitches. Sometimes teams and supporters travel and then the game gets called off. Sometimes referee calls games off for health and safety reasons even though the pitch might later look playable. You...

    Tuesday 16th February & Wednesday 17th February

    What did we actually do wrong? It rained. Sometimes it rains. The only thing I can think of that is a legitimate reason to be annoyed is if you travelled while we were fully in the knowledge that the game had no realistic prospect of being played. We were in great form. It wasn't in our...

    Tuesday 16th February & Wednesday 17th February

    Okay Masi. We'll let Bolton and Evatt decide our groundsmen staffing situation. What would these extra groundsmen be doing out of interest? Collecting extra water in little plastic cups from the canteen?

    Tuesday 16th February & Wednesday 17th February

    Evatt has been moaning a lot. What did he want us to do if there was too much water on the pitch? Play water polo instead? I thought Clough's interview was a little strange. He calls it two fluke goals. I thought he might look for reasons in his control. Evatt must have got under his skin over...

    Will Leeds be relegated?

    I didn't realise Leeds had those players but that should make a big difference if it goes to plan. In fairness Leeds have looked better when Liam Cooper has been in defence in recent weeks.

    Will Leeds be relegated?

    I reckon the opposite to tiring out is more likely to happen. Leeds are scoring plenty of goals so if the defence and GK improves there's no reason not to pick up more points or go on a run.

    Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2020/21

    Some managers go to a club, they just pick a team and it's off they go. With Flitcroft it felt like he was building an attacking style, the team had identity and the players were improving until late in the season. If he can get those values through the whole club, he could be a good DoF. If he...

    Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2020/21

    I missed that one but it's great. I've never heard anyone use microwave like that. His use of language and lack of substance must be noticeable among the employees at whichever club he's managing at. Bet you in person he litters every sentence with, 'for me', 'at the end of the day' and 'it is...

    Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2020/21

    He speaks crap and lots of it. Synergy this, galvanised that. Every sentence was at least 30 words. "All I ever ask from the team is that we run for the people of Mansfield and we run for each other, and we’ve had that tonight in abundance." I told the team to work hard. "To try and get that...

    Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

    Sure it will be fine. Clough will get time from fans and board knowing what he did with Burton and how the results have been so far. For once we might be able to actually build and wait for the right players barring anything catastrophic.
