Anybody know why some transfer offers are weird amounts. Like $60.8 mill instead of $60 or $61 mill?

23 Oct 2025 22:11:47
Got this horrible feeling we are going to see the same starting 11 tomorrow. Personally don't want to see JH or BA or Pascal lining up, neither risk players that aren't fully fit, so has to be some kind of change.

We need to involve Bijol and Ao, if Amps is out no doubt Gruev will come in. Big ask for any youth but would like to see it on the bench. Dunno, just think we need to give some a rest and rotate.

24 Oct 2025 00:11:17
As he has come out and admitted stach is injured I think that’s the only change. My guess is James will start and ba will cover stachs position.

23 Oct 2025 17:21:35
So how are we all feeling about tomorrow night?
Nervous?
First time?
No I've been nervous lots of times.

Yeah great "Airplane" film comedy aside it will be no laughing matter if we don't pick up 3 vital points at home to what must be considered on paper right now one of if not the weakest opposition we will face this season.

Owners snd investors have jetted in too so that makes me wonder if they don't like what they see tomorrow night Farke could be axed.

Summerville returning, Bowen who has a very good goal scoring record against Leeds will make this not so easy despite West Ham being horrendous at home they'll no doubt raise their game at our place so I'm keeping everything crossed we can somehow find a winning formula and Farke can live to fight another day at least.

However I do feel the lack of adequate backing this summer was a sign the owners were keeping their options open incase a managerial change was required and funds will be suddenly available for a new boss to strengthen in January.

Can't say I'm a big fan of our owners and just because of that I hope Farke thwarts them and can remain in charge for as long as possible as that will invariably mean the team is picking up points and remaining on course for the survival target of a point per game. Reckon if Farke can get 4 points from the next 3 he'll be okay until December at least.

Hmmmm, interesting thoughts CW, thing is we can overthink things and speculate on nonenities. Believe the 9ers had a plan and executed it in
Nforcing the defence and midfield which looks on balance good. Of course no two games are alike and we have looked great/ average/ poor at times but that is akin to many sides.

The problem is and has been since ko scoring. I am very confident about tomorrow and it being a springboard for a little run, but then that's just me! 😁.

24 Oct 2025 00:15:08
If we play as we did v Burnley. We will lose and Farke will go.
If he changes the starting line up and rest struik stach Harrison and ba we will win and Farke will stay.

24 Oct 2025 01:13:14
I'm always apprehensive, it goes with being a Leeds fan like chips with fish. What could possibly go wrong, apart from damn near everything!

24 Oct 2025 08:07:03
What if we lose and Farke isn't sacked?

We saw that it took a police escort for Martin to lose his job and only because he would have never been allowed back in.

24 Oct 2025 08:27:31
I think that’s what the big boys are there for. Think Burnley defeat rang the warning bells.
Not 100% a win will save him. We have dropped too many unexpected points. My opinion. Could be wrong.

23 Oct 2025 16:56:22
Some excellent analysis and comment on the SSN site. Worth a read, in case you haven't already!

23 Oct 2025 15:34:33
Rosie night off Prob following their second team. Or no answer to fact. Anyway. Feel free to join in tomorrow chaos.

23 Oct 2025 16:29:58
Just over my second hernia op from a few hours ago and still a bit drowsy. Catch up with you tomoz for complaints or praises of our game.

23 Oct 2025 16:45:12
4-1 to the mighty Whites tomorrow Aus, no worries, raise a tinny round the billabong to that 😁.

23 Oct 2025 18:10:43
Quick recovery OP, hopefully a win on Friday will be the perfect medicine.

24 Oct 2025 00:16:03
Hope you recover quickly opti.

DCL Nine big chances this season and only one goal. This is a problem.

{Ed025's Note - he is a target man CORKEY but not a prolific scorer.. never has been and never will be, he will create chances for others but dont bank on him being your top scorer mate..

23 Oct 2025 14:38:37
How many assists has he racked apart apart from his 1 goal tally 😂.

{Ed025's Note - to assist you need someone playing off him Ausman, its no use knocking the ball down to a shadow mate.. :)

23 Oct 2025 14:39:22
Trouble is Ed, top. Scorer could be nip and tuck with OG’s this season.

Read it’s currently our lowest conversion rate of key chances since 2013, obviously that doesn’t take into consideration the difference in quality in the EPL

But on the plus side we’re creating more key chances than any of the other sides down in the bottom half.

Harry Gray is the answer for me, well until January at least, and when he’s fit again of course.

{Ed025's Note - unless you find the next Haaland CO92 i think you may be disappointed mate, he will need someone along side him to forge the next Alan Clarke and Mick Jones partnership.. :)

23 Oct 2025 15:02:15
Unfortunately for us Ed, Mr Underwood purchased him on pretence of keeping us up this Seez,

{Ed025's Note - he can be part of achieving that Chris but he wont be able to do it on his own mate..

23 Oct 2025 15:31:47
Do we see thumbs up for Ed’s but not alaw?

23 Oct 2025 15:35:48
Paddy should of been kept I'd have him over DCL all day long!
Yes he misses chances but brings more to the team!

23 Oct 2025 15:36:01
The problem is of course guys, quality deliveries into the box. We ain't going to get this with JH and BA, we desperately need Okafor, Willy and a performing DJ as well as maybe AO in the middle. Give DCL service he will score but as ED so rightly points out he needs assistance, just my opinion but Piroe could be the answer.

23 Oct 2025 16:11:44
I agree Class, I have said it before, give Harry Gray a chance to see if him and DCL can form any sort of a partnership, because Harry knows where the net is.

23 Oct 2025 16:17:03
Totally agree guys.

Two builders go into the pub after a hard day's work. They're sat drinking for a while when a very smartly dressed man walks in and orders a drink. The two began to speculate about what the man did for a living.
"I'll bet he's an accountant. " said the first builder.
"Looks more like a stockbroker to me. " argued the second. They continued to debate the subject for a good while until eventually the first builder needed to use the toilet. On walking in, he saw the smartly dressed man standing at a urinal.
"Excuse me mate, but me and my friend have been arguing over what a smartly dressed fella like you does for a living? " the builder said to the man.
Smiling the man replied, "I'm a logical scientist. "
"A what? " asked the builder.
"Let me explain" the man continued, "Do you have a goldfish at home? "
A bit puzzled, but intrigued the builder decided to play along, "Yes, I do as it happens. "
"Well then it's logical to assume that you either keep it in a bowl or a pond. Which is it? "
"A pond" the builder replied.
"Well then it's logical to assume that you have a large garden. " The builder nodded his agreement. So the man continued, "which means it's logical to assume you have a large house. "
"I have a 6 bedroom house that I built myself. " the builder said proudly.
"Given that you have such a large house, it's logical to assume that you are married. "
The builder nodded again, "Yes, I'm married and we have three children. "
"Then it's logical to assume that you have a healthy sex life. "
"Five nights a week! " the builder boasted.
The man smiled a little, "Therefore it's logical to assume you don't masturbate often. "
"Never! " the builder exclaimed.
"Well there you have it" the man explained, "That's logical science at work. From finding out that you have a goldfish, I've discovered the size of your garden, all about your house, your family and your sex life! "
The builder left, very impressed by the man's talents. On returning to the bar the other builder asked, "I see that smart bloke was in there, did you find out what he does? "
"Yeah, " replied the first, "He's a logical scientist. "
"A what? " the puzzled second builder asked.
"Let me explain" the first builder continued, "Do you have a goldfish at home? "
"No" replied his mate.
"Well, you're a w@nker then! "

🤣, sometimes we all draw those conclusions Alf 🤣,

The old ones are the best Alf! 🤣.

{Ed's Note - Seano_ has posted a new article entitled, Where is it all going wrong with Liverpool FC?

23 Oct 2025 07:46:48
Liverpool are 4th. In a champions league spot and a few points off the top. Bit of a hiccup maybe but hardly the end of the world. There are 16 other teams that would bite your hand off for those points and position. Chin up chap. Things will sort themselves out. You can’t spend that much money and fail.

23 Oct 2025 08:40:33
Ahem ahem Ays

Fidget spinner + Jadon spring too mind.

23 Oct 2025 09:48:50
I think you can Aus.

23 Oct 2025 01:44:13
Farke says stach form has dipped cause of a shoulder injury. That explains it then.
Hopefully he Dosent injure both legs or Farke will have to give gruev and ao a game.

23 Oct 2025 10:28:17
I've been saying for a while he is injured. His form dropped after he took a clattering a few games ago.
He shouldn't have been on the pitch.

My worry is we will rush James and Okafor back because this is a must win.

23 Oct 2025 10:43:37
And a broken finger. Didn't know you play footie with your finger, unless it's Subbuteo.

23 Oct 2025 11:45:15
Don’t think he will put James or Okafor on to replace stach. Prob mez.

22 Oct 2025 22:17:45
I see Liverpool played 2 strikers tonight.
I wonder was Farke watching?

22 Oct 2025 23:28:34
We don't have 1 striker never mind 2.
