Beckford scores in the 88th minute to give them a 2-1 win against Exeter.
How often will they scored after 85 mins this season then?

At least they got a scare. May be another season where promotion isn't a certainty for them .

We just won on the opening day.

Were all over them for long periods and could have won a lot more easily.

Exeter fans invaded the pitch when they brought it back to 1-1
Absolute scum!, haha

Absolute scum!


Birds of a feather and all that

you forgot to mention that Exeter were playing with one up front and the one striker was sent off after 58 minutes.......you have got to admit you do score a lot of late, jammy barsteward goals

Don't really score loadsa late goals, I'm sure the only 1 last season was against you in the Carling cup, nowt wrong with playing for the full 90 mins :)
They were well up for it, but we could have scored a lot more, they only scored from a good free kick.

Glad to hear we are playing a full strength team against darlington on Monday

Full strength eh ?.respect for Darlo ..

Goals in the last 10 minutes from Leeds last 2 seasons.
Scunthorpe 1 - 2 Leeds (Beckford 80)
Swindon 1 - 3 Leeds (Beckford 85)
Leeds 3 - 2 Hartlepool (Robinson 90)
Leeds 3 - 1 Brighton (Beckford 90)
Stockport 1 - 3 Leeds (Christie 87)
Brighton 0 - 2 Leeds (Delph 83)
Leeds 3 - 1 Peterbrough (Howson 90)
Leeds 2 - 0 Milwall (Beckford 90)
Leeds 1 - 0 Bristol Rovers (Elliot OG 84)
Hartlepool 1 - 1 Leeds (Beckford 90)
Probably a lot more. Got bored

Yea thanks for proving my point, from that list the latest winner we got was in the 84th min from last season, excluding your carling cup exit I already mentioned

the game lasts at least 90 mins folks, as much as we don't like it, they take advantage and fair play to them!

Well you would expect "BIG CLUB LEEDS WHO SHOULD BE IN PREMIERSHIP" to beat little Exeter who not long ago where playing conference football.

Its not much to boast about when they had 10 men and still managed to score with 10 men against the so called MIGHTY WHITES!!

why do you keep calling Leeds big? I never do, and just to prove the point I am now about to set off to darlington

Simon Grayson on Sky about two minutes ago;

"It's the strongest team I felt it possible to play apart from those lads on international duty plus those with slight knocks like Jermaine and Luciano"

Leeds reserves then.....

is this darlo's cup final then?

Pretty embarrassing if it is they appear to be outnumbered at home.

That flag was among the collection of flea bags they brought with them to the Vic at the back end of last season.

anyone listening to it on radio ali brownlee

Leeds fans spent the first half singing songs about hating Man United........

What league are Leeds in? Oh aye I remember now, its in that song they sing...

Marching on Together.....
We'll be in league one forever....
na na na na na

so what your saying is because Leeds aren't in the Prem anymore, they aren't allowed to hate Man Utd

Does that mean i'm not allowed to hate Darlo

enoch schwaddy waddy just scored.

to me it means Leeds are insignificant to Man United fans so why would it bother them about Leeds hating them? Man U's rivals are Liverpool and Man City.

But yes you can still hate D*rl* - who am I to say that u can't?

This Grella guy for Leeds looks rather good..........

I like Darlo's kit.

It's not just me then

Thats foooking shocking.

t'other year when we were still in league 1 mate

Yes he is, just signed him up to a 3 year contract (hopefully not as a Beckford replacement though, ha)

Good?


Are you having a laugh?


Fancy feet but about as productive as a Yorkshire miner in 1984.


Reminded me a lot of the ornament that was Stephen Halliday.

RE: Leeds fans outnumbering us

Leeds Utd would outnumber most teams in League Two if they had chance, as well as a few in League One.

No they wouldn't, not in the first round of the Carling Cup anyway....

i thought you support AC Milan? Or do you randomly wear other teams shirts for the fun of it?

I have an ac milan shirt

I've never had an AC Milan shirt?

He is basically saying just about every other lower league club would have barely mustered 2,000 home supporters for a game against Leeds.

Given the background and what the Loids have been through that turnout is unbelievably bad, it appears rather than rallying behind the new regime the people of Darlington have simply stopped bothering.

Why not? It's only an hour up the road?

Considering the game was on Sky, it's nothing to worry about. Many floaters will have stopped in to watch it on the box.

Because if they were at home they'd only muster about 10,000, it's the first round of the Carling Cup FFS they sell out just about every single away league game they didn't even come close to shifting all the tickets last night did they? If they did you had less than a 1000 in the crowd. Stop trying to make excuses for an embarrassing turnout....

The Sky excuse is gubbins, didn't you attract over 8,000 last year in the paint pot when it was on Sky?

People have given up, you should be worried.

it does my nut in the singin about darlo all the fuckin time to be honest and yes its because were not in the same league and its not even on TV so they cant FOOOKIN hear us so what is the point ??

well maybe you should get your fat arse up to Hartlepool more often and start some decent songs like we used to when we were kids

wwwhhhhhooooooooaaaa Bullskiah still makes me laugh now

sorry i meant Inter

The JP trophy turnout was probably down to it being their first ever tie in that Competition (I think).

Why should we be worried for attracting 4,500? It's more than we'll probably get all season, and we picked up about £100,000 from Sky. That's good enough for me. Let's see how it goes for the League Games.

How many do you think you will be getting for your league games then?

We'll probably average the same as we did last season, which is no suprise.

You didn't attract 4,500. You had a couple of thousand home fans when it was your first home game of a new era, with a new team, with a new owner, and with a new manager. Wouldn't you expect a bit more interest? Do you honestly think more people will turn up on Saturday? I wouldn't be surprised if you had a sub 2,000 crowd.

To be honest yes I was expecting more, but like I say the fact the game was on Sky would have put a few people off. If we can average something similar to last season I'll be happy, especially when we're tipped to struggle.

It was 7891 2 seasons ago when we were getting better crowds, though Leeds brought more than the 2000 they brought last night.

I think the novelty of Leeds has worn off a bit, we just attracted our core support of around 2500 last night. I think crowds will be about the same as last season whatever happens this season, poor I know but Raj has budgeted for the minimum so anything more is a bonus

haha talkin of bull shi aaaah our andy is home from oz in the 29th of august for a month so u will have to catch up with him he aint been home for 2 years !

Raj has apparently done his sums and given us a much reduced realistic budget based on projected income reportedly about 500k. It's poor I know but it's a a case of feet on the ground and steady the ship time

How much extra would the stadium cost to run compared to Feethams? Nobody really knows.
It makes money through parking,corporate functions and weddings/parties etc and there was talk about regularly staging concerts. If Graham Fordy can even get us using the stadium to even half its potential it'll make not lose us money.

It's only used for footballing purposes 23 days a year we just need someone who knows what they're doing with the other 342 days this time

Is George Reynolds back and is Elton John lined up to play there

On one of those free days I'd have a christmas party......there you are, only another 341 to go.

Hope that helps
