The Official Leeds United Thread
Discussion
I went through the full range of emotions during yesterday’s game. Half time I was furious... Full time I was devastated, as much for the players as myself. It’s just so frustrating that we seem to default to playing very poorly at the moment. We know there’s ability there and I just wish it would be accompanied by the sort of fight we gave it in the 2nd half more often.
It’s hard to see us making the playoffs as things stand but we’ll see I guess.

I can relate to the full range of emotions. Pissed off at half time so decided to stay in the queue for a brew instead of getting back to my seat in time for the second half. Ended up celebrating our first goal in the queue.
Lost my mind when we scored our third, I was in the East Stand Upper for the first time this season, my season ticket is in the kop but my colleague wanted to see his first Leeds game so had brought him along. Ended up celebrating with the chap stood next to me. Absolute scenes. Follow that with head my hands stuff when they scored the equaliser and then the winner. Got home to find a cut on my leg from the third goal celebrations.
If we don’t make the play offs then TC will no doubt be shown the door. I find it strange that we signed Ideguchi and sent him out on loan instead of playing him but it seems that had something to do with our Qatari links.

Dear Mr Radrizzani, what matters is not how you fall down, but how you pick yourself up. do NOT disappoint us.
I suspect the 10,000 people they surveyed were in M, L and W post codes! Or maybe it is like those UK Eurovision shows where the public can vote for 1 of 6 options, each of which is utter s
te.
Personally, I never liked the smiley one as a kid, but it was certainly iconic and a strong recognisable logo in the right era. The current shield is very 1990s and was always a bit clunky looking, but hell, its light years better than the Gaviscon / Pro Evo Soccer 2002 effort. My favourite was the 84-98 rose. Which is probably why I quite like this one on Twitter. Nice use of a peacock, although I can't see that ever making a formal logo.

Well, another illustration today that our problem isn't with the badge on the shirts, it's with the players who are wearing them. Don't like to see managers getting sacked but beginning to wonder whether TC will last to the end of the season if things don't improve....

Radz did put a statement out earlier in the season that TC's job was safe, however seeing how the last few weeks have gone I could see it changing. TC even said yesterday that if he got sacked he'd leave with his head held high, so he must be thinking it might happen. Edited by JNW1 on Sunday 4th February 09:58
The season is pretty much over for us. No chance of us reaching the playoffs, despite it being a target set by Radz and co.
Once again we showed more fight in the second half, when we were a man and a few goals down. The questionable refereeing decisions didn’t help either. That’s now 4 red cards in 5 matches too.
If we lose next weekend I can TC being shown the door. The question is who should he be replaced by and will it make any difference if transfer decisions are controlled by Orta and co?

7 managers in four years, crazy.
Yes, all the evidence is the chopping and changing doesn't work. In many ways I liked TC and might have been tempted to stick with him until the end of the season; don't see us making the play-offs but we should be safe from relegation and therefore could have perhaps given him a chance to turn things round. That said I've never been convinced he'd built a squad that would be effective and competitive in the Championship and unfortunately that seems to be the way it's working out.Anyway, question now is who replaces him? Can't say I'm too impressed with some of the names being talked about so far......
