#LUFC I was thinking of starting a petition:

"I would like there to be another 1973 FA Cup final.

I believe that the Sunderland win was not what Leeds United fans were promised in the lead up to the match."

That should do it. At least 2m signatures I reckon.

If you’re a bloke with a dodgy looking image, a dodgy bio and you only have posts of yourself standing by your car, I’m unlikely to want to follow you back.
In fact I’m very likely to block you
You’re welcome.

There's one positive if Leeds United don't win on Sunday. It will stress test whether Bluesky really is a forum of reason, intelligent debate and respect for the views of others.

My introduction to BlueSky 👋 It’s like the first day of school all over again.

I’m a sports journalist, work for Athletics Weekly and have covered everything from the Olympics to the London Marathon.

I’ll be posting all my work on here but also catch the content on the AW channels.

Rafael Nadal retires with 22 Grand Slam titles, second only to Novak Djokovic in men’s tennis history with 24.

He also won two Olympic gold medals — one in singles and one in doubles — and four Davis Cups, with a final total of 92 career singles titles.

A side note from football. There a rugby game going on today at Headingley. The 745 game where rugby league and rugby union come together in a different style of game to raise money for the MND charity. Rob Burrow idea to have this game what a great idea.

Brilliant to see so many Leeds fans flocking here and thanks for all the follows. 🙏

Along with regular #LUFC stats, I’m
keen to be more transparent with the database progress. It’s a constant research project going on in the background but making huge strides. New additions are in the works. 📈

Does blocking someone on here not remove them as a follower?

Jumped before he was pushed, expected really. He'd have got dogs abuse if he ever ref'd another game.
David Coote has been removed from #UEFA and FIFA’s list of referees as the backlash escalates following his video outburst aimed at Jürgen Klopp and #Liverpool

Junior Firpo watched Largie Ramazani on TV prior to the pair linking up in Leeds United's left flank.

Spoke to the left-back to get his thoughts on the winger and what this squad has that last season's didn't.
