As we are, we are a lower middle team. With a more solid defence we are play off material.

more ominously leeds have given everyone 15 points head start and will probably be top before xmas.

We were poor today chip - no better than a modern Costello album. Yoevil were excellent - not as pretty as yourselves but immense in defence and good going forwrd. We had 4 centre forwards on for the last 15 minutes in an effort to get a goal. We could easily have been beaten today.

Point is - there is a long way to go. I thought Forest were top when we played 'em. Your fans found them pretty ordinary I believe

Lets hope it goes downhill for the string of beads..... I've got £50 on with my old boss that we will finish above you lot

Mind I can always make some of it up from Chip, boydie seems to have gone of the boil somewhat

I keep hearing this "we played shit" thing from Leeds fans, but you keep winning. How is this?

Am liking the look of the league more each week.

We took 'Uddersfield apart yesterday,The score line flattered them we could have had 7 or 8!.
For those who took the pee out of our old team, average age of outfield players yesterday was 24. Mooney bumped that up a fair bit on his own.

Think Leeds and Florist will be up there at the end of the season.Will see how much Tranmere deserve their top spot on Friday

I'd be happy with mid table security, anything else would be a bonus

Yesterday we were very poor - reason, Yoevil had our front 2 in their pocket all match.

Sometimes we look poor when we are not - reason, (I think) we are happy to concede ground in midfield to create space behind in which our front 2 can operate. We then miss the midfield out as we attack. We are much closer to Wimbledon than the Gooners so it isn't always pretty. Wise is happy with effective (so too the crowd). You, of course, are more Gooners of course.

We had 4 centre forwrds on the pitch at the end yesterday and just bombed it in. Possibly the tallest team ever to take the field!

Walsall are back, Walsall are back ello, ello!

I'm lovin' the comparison to us and the Gooners.

Who'd have expected us to be tenth and level on points to Poolies, a week after being bottom ?

Not me if I'm honest

it's a farnee owld gayme Saiynt.

Didn't know Jimmy Greaves was Welsh

I found myself singing along to that last week

Walsall - says it all eh

It was on one of the other message boads, I think It was a Donny fan who said it

Leeds: National joke.

I agree

National Joke gives all comers 15 points start and still storms to the title

you get the title for being 12th in october.wow. bring back mick tait most decorated pools manager ever he'd have had 3 titles in a row

The third division title??

I thought that was an achievement for the likes of us and a sort of wooden spoon for the Champions Of Europe??

No such thing as unwelcome silverware kev

Walsall have been spitting bile on Leeds rivals board all season for some unknown reason. The more they laugh the more we love it

Everyone spills bile on the Leeds board don't they?

At least those that queued up to post their 'thoughts' on their demise last season on Rivals - before it was removed by the admin on there and the other jovial 'laughing' Leeds fans

Anyway, it's a long season, you've won nothing yet, and even though your MASSIVE club, with MASSIVE members, is lording the third tier of English football, it's a long, long way from your usual stomping ground and opponents, and I predict many years in the sub-premier wilderness for you......



So stitch that

Thanks for those helpful comments miss saigon - like all the rest your barbs miss the target by some way and serve only to make a fool of yersen.

Sub premier wilderness - I'm sure poolies and all the rest will be pleased to hear your view on Div 1. Like many leeds fans I enjoyed the championship and I enjoy Div 1. Like all the rest you assume for some unknown reason that leeds fans have ideas of grandeur. We have our history and are grateful for that but we are in Div 1 on merit and will only get out of it on merit. If we don't deserve it we won't get out of Div 1. Dead simple even for Walsall folk I would imagine.

As the article in the Sunday Times said (yes they still write about us in the broad sheets) 'contra mundum" - 'against the world'; in defiance of all accepted belief. '

and dont forget the delights of hartlepool on boxing day to look forward to.
see thats why you come to our division you thought you were missing out

They write about us in the broadsheets too, usually after the word 'little' or 'struggling' or 'thrifty' which is patronising but infinately better than 'cheating' or 'dirty' eh?

And it's Ms Saigon to you, bitch

I were playing t'Pool in Loftus last t'night [its in Yorkshire tha knows] and were talking to a Leeds t'fan , well I was talking with my posh school boy accent - he was making funny noises and grunts, anyt'way he were alright he were and ne'er said nowt offensive like and reckoned thee t'Leeds aren't as good as they t'think they t'are and that we 'ave bin t'best t'team to play at t'bellend road in't long time ee bah gum


sorry, I'm being an arse.
he was sound as a pound, I genuinely wished his team well and he did ours

Perfect Leeds accent salty - give them Ts a run out, it works every time. Best teams we've played are trannies and forest (both away) (table supports this I think). Have had many a fine night in lofthouse! Madjohn still peddling his usual lucky to be alive line on administration/penalties Don't put yersen down miss saigon. God made all football teams equal.

So many folk determined to pick a fight with leeds - bit sad really

In my personal experience it's always the other way around!

Still, the Champs and Premier are breathing a collective sigh of relief that you're pestering Division one's women and kids and not beating the hell out of theirs for a change.

It's a cross that we all must bear!

" Still, the Champs and Premier are breathing a collective sigh of relief that you're pestering Division one's women and kids and not beating the hell out of theirs for a change. "

And that miss saigon tells us all we need to know about you.

" If Leeds were really in the position that they had earned when they shat on English league football, they'd be a damn site lower than League One. "

And that all we need to know about madjohn in his weaker moments.

Possibly time to take an adult line on theses issue I'm thinking.

By the way we were the worst team again tonight

I think you'll find you were equal worst!!

dont think this t'gadgie gets to many games, I think I said that he'd seen but may be wrong...just to clarify!

thanks for t'compliment on my Leeds accent by t'way!

We register for tickets for your place next Monday. Availability will be a lotterey unfortunately. First 350 or so to 'away' season ticket holders - 90% of remainder to season ticket holders and the last 10% to members. It would be a real pity to miss out on a Christmas treat in Hartlepool assuming your hospitality is as welcoming as your message board.

Reet, that's enough laking abart fer na I'm off

laking? in canoes?

Please divulge your dramatic and clinical psychological conclusion of my appraisal of the fans of 'dirty Leeds'

1> I doubt you know very little of Leeds in Walsall
2> Football equivalent of envying the neighbours car
3> Your attention is flattering miss saigon.

Point one - I used to knock around with a couple of mad Leeds fans in Nottingham between 1998 and 2002, so I've sung some of the Leeds anthems at 2am at full volume in various haunts in the city. That is all I need to know!

Ratted Walsall fan admits to great nights out supporting LUFC - priceless

Marching On Together Miss Saigon - top man

"We are so proud, we shout out loud, we love you Leeds, Leeds, Leeds"

I afraid I was very, very drunk
