Each of Leeds 3 wins have been followed by no wins for 3 games afterwards - 1 win, 1 draw & 2 losses per 4-game series. We’re now one game away from the end of the first 3 series of 4 games, and if the trend continues then Villa will be a draw. But after that … 😬 #LUFC

Today is a “must win”, so here’s your Leeds lottery question: If we lose today & then get the almost 0pts expected from the run of games Villa to Liverpool, which of the 3 “winnable” games following that does Farke get sacked, to give a new manager the January window to try and save us? #LUFC

14 of our first 21 games have been changed so far. Exactly two-thirds of Leeds matches moved 🙄 #LUFC

Nice that Leeds have a 6 point gap to the drop zone already 💪🏻 #LUFC

My first move in #FM26 will be to bring Archie Gray back to #LUFC to play alongside his brother Harry, and then build a Leeds team around them. Not deluded, just optimistic 😆

1999-00 Leeds Puma Away shirt. Glorious.

I doubt you'll go with this one. But, maybe Leeds journos and fans should start asking this charlatan some real questions??? I hope you give Marathe a very uncomfortable time. Anything less would be a waste of your (and our) time. @dan.thesquareball.net I'm sure you agree. #LUFC

It’s not like Marathe is getting anything right in Scotland either, further proving he’s all talk and no substance #LUFC

Less than £100m net spend = setting Farke up to fail 🤦🏻‍♂️ Leeds redefining “Doing a Leeds” 😬 #LUFC
September 1, 2025 at 7:15 PM
Tbf Josey, I’ve always like your optimism 😄 The stats back you up too. Leeds have averaged one incoming player on deadline day over the past 10yrs. Notably Ao last year, Anthony in ‘23, Willy in ‘22, DJ in ‘21. It’s a big rabbit they need to pull out of the hat tomorrow though! #LUFC

Last time (2020) we spent £15m+ on only four players, and spending less in total than we have so far this summer.
August 25, 2025 at 9:14 PM
Ten players in for less than £10m cost each. This approach by Leeds is almost the definition of a club preparing for a season in the championship next year = buying players who won’t leave if we’re relegated. Yo-yo our way back 🤦🏻‍♂️ #LUFC has rolled the dice, it had better work. Not ambitious enough!
August 25, 2025 at 5:13 PM
Leeds fans. Just take your dog for a walk in the countryside and forget about the 5-0. Move on. Arsenal have been a top side for a LONG time, and that gap is too big with a starting 11 that includes 8 players from our championship side. #LUFC not defined by one game 💪🏻
August 24, 2025 at 7:23 AM
Current 25 doesn’t include Bamford or Meslier. We’ll swap in a better player to let Schmidt leave, but Jack is staying so Largie may have to go out on loan to make one squad space free… #LUFC
August 22, 2025 at 9:14 AM
This takes our net spending this summer to £86.5m (excl. add-ons, and in a simplified form that doesn't take into account signing-on fees etc). With Bamford & Meslier still to go out, and assuming we spend £20-30m on one more marquee signing, how close are Leeds sailing to PSR limits? #LUFC

This is a really good article on what it is to be a Leeds fan, with contributions from @robconlon.bsky.social #LUFC
Now, I just need to look up what “ouroboros” means …

If I put a cardboard box “anywhere” in my house, this is what I see within 5 minutes …

Noah Okafor edging closer to Leeds it seems. Sounds like we may have agreed terms with the player but Milan haven’t agreed to sell him to us, yet. #LUFC
August 17, 2025 at 7:57 PM
This Leeds top will sell well, but why are the vertical pin stripes not lined up right? Look at the collar front - the lines aren’t centred. And don’t get me started on the badges not being positioned within or on the lines equally. #LUFC so close to perfection but lacking attention to detail 🤦🏻‍♂️

Has anyone seen this jacket on sale by Leeds yet? #LUFC
August 7, 2025 at 4:25 PM
Not far off a starting line up that “could” survive the PL. But there’s not enough PL quality depth to the Leeds squad at fullback, wing, or striker. 2 or 3 serious injuries & that squad is toast. AML & ST 1st choice plus at least 3 or 4 PL capable subs need to be added yet. I believe we’ll be fine.
July 30, 2025 at 10:55 AM
So Leeds have now reached stage 16 out of 20 in the transfer rumours clickbait ladder with tonight’s “on the brink of an agreement”… let’s hope we now get it over the last couple of weird news round stages! #LUFC
July 27, 2025 at 7:51 PM
Sounds like Leeds are a bit nearer getting a keeper than Beren thought #LUFC Lucas Perri incoming 🛩️
July 24, 2025 at 9:13 AM
I don’t think their quality is the issue if you look at how dominant they were all game. Not sure what you think they lack 😂
July 22, 2025 at 9:46 PM
I only play when Leeds are in the PL. Last time was my best ever season. I doubt I'll do that well this year, given that I haven't kept up with Pl players over the last 2yrs 🙄
At GW20 in '23 I was in the top 60k players (within the top 0.6%), but the 2nd half wasn't as good. Still top 4% though.
