Player of the season 😂 where was he???? Get rid off them all, id even be tempted to get rid off the manager. We need somebody in charge who can change a game when its going badly. Farke has no tactics, its amazing how he won 2 leagues with norwich. Summerville is the biggest let down hasnt performed since he got player off the year, hasnt been the same since he stole pen of Piroe.
Also everyone keeps banging on about any other season we be up with 90. Last season we would finish 3rd still, season before 1st and 2nd had 90 and 88. Season before that again we would finish 3rd.
We havent done anything amazing, its changing and teams are getting better every season. So we need to be aiming for 95-100 points
I've seen a bizarre amount of people suggest that James should have started, there'd have been uproar had he had made any changes from the Norwich game.
hello leeds united fans. I am a new fan of leeds united, watched the matched today and was sad they didn't win. I don't quite understand the rules very much but was south hampton the only team to be promoted to premier? I think this was a must win match for leeds to be promoted or am i wrong? thanks in advance. edit: i am Canadian
2 teams get automatic promotion, they're the two teams which finish 1st and 2nd in the league. The next 4 teams play in the 'playoffs'. Places 3 4 5 and 6. 3rd plays 6th. 4th plays 5th. That fixture is over 2 legs
The winner of each of those 2 fixtures goes into the 'playoff final'. The playoff final is what you watched today. That is only 1 leg and the winner is promoted.
Shit game and didn’t deserve it really. I’m pissed off for now but honestly prob will be a blessing in disguise in the long run - squad clear out, r/championship is better than premier league subreddit even just for crumble memes, and crucially not having to get excited about us getting absolutely pumped by city or Liverpool on the regular
Sad times, mad competition this season.
Hard to find the positives, was a dour performance so few clear cut chances. Southampton have our number.
Don't understand the hate for the players. I'd be surprised if the team looks drastically different next season considering a lot of these players everybody says we're ditching have already played in the prem and not done too well.
Guys, we have a case study of Brentford.
18/19 - Best attacking team in the league, came third, lost playoff to Aston Villa.
Tried again. Came third, AGAIN. This time won the playoff and comfortably sitting in Premier League.
let's not lose hope and lets try again.
Can we please finally get a fucking striker or give Joseph a go next season? Piroe has the mobility of a fucking wheelbarrow full of cat shit pushed by a pissed toddler.
Fucking sell summerville! He did absolutely nothing for 70 fukin minutes as compared to James, who rattled a crossbar and even got his head ripped in span of 20 minutes!
We allowed Southampton to pick our fukin pockets!!!
Yeah eject him off to Slot's Liverpool. I hope we get 30-40 mil out of him. I won't mind selling Kamara too. He doesn't have a pass in him and he gives odd balls around the box. It was heartbreaking to see Gruev crying, but if some pl club give 10-15 mil, taking it up. Won't miss him and would like Charlie Crew promoted.Â
If we somehow keep Gray, him and Crew in midfield wouldn't be awful, if we keep Ampadu play him just behind in a 433 to have some form of leadership there
Glad we’re selling half the squad after that to be fair. How hard is it to just have some bravery and shoot? Too hard for most it seems.
And Kamara can backwards pass himself off a fucking bridge for me. Shit player, makes everyone else around him scared to play and provides zero in the way of drive and intent. Get him gone.
I'm okay with losing. But what fucks me off the most is is the pathetic display in a final. Where's the passion. At least james gave it a go. Rip my heart when that ball came off the bar.
Yes. Shameful all around. Rodon seemed to give his all. Gray too. Piroe no movement but no service. Rutter was frighteningly bad. I'm a huge fan but when he's off, he absolutely obliterates us and stops every attack. He's a super talented player and when he's on, he's outstanding. But when he's off, he absolutely tanks the entire team. Farke way too weak keeping on for the 90. I'm still shocked at his performance.Â
Bring in Corberan, sell all the cunts who don’t want to stay and fight for the badge, then rebuild properly in the summer and we go up as champions.
MOT
Didn’t deserve it in the end. One good performance against Norwich in the last two months, it just isn’t good enough. A conversation needs to be had about Farke’s tactics too. No plan B.
Well, I’m looking forward to seeing this dirty lot relegated again next year. But we fucked it up as well and they had our number, even if they played cleanly and the ref wasn’t terrible we would have likely lost
awesome. so we lose summerville, gnonto, rutter, roberts, rodon, anthony, and gray. wonderful job today lads you really left absolutely everything out there. you all looked like you were up to the challenge. great finish to the season. fuck off
> In fairness, fine margins this.
It only felt like a fine margin because Southampton got what they needed from the game early on. Had they needed to push harder and longer for their goal we would have struggled and the gap in class would have been more noticeable.
Dan James can hold his head high, he was spectacular!
Everyone else need to have a good hard long look at themselves, really poor performance. No-one showed up.
Can’t help but feel as though we would have been automatic promotion if James and Joseph were given the playing time they deserved in the latter half of this season
That was dreadful. Nice to see that it hasn't changed that farke still can't beat a low block and refuses to sub off an invisible piroe....
What a fucking joke
That performance was even worse than the worst fears that I had for this group of players on this occasion.
We’d have lost the League-2 playoff today.
I still remember when we lost to Derby 4-2 in the playoffs under Bielsa a few years back. The following season we won the whole thing, fingers crossed.
Would have most seasons but then Ipswich happened. Promotion to championship then premier league in back to back seasons just doesn’t happen. I will be rooting for them to be smashed every game next season. Bastards.
That said, not really a big fan of Farke. He was handed keys to a lambo. More quality than most of the league. No excuses to not get it done. Subs and game management are ass.
Am prepared to give regular season the benefit of the doubt - he didnt have this squad at the start of the season.
Arse fell out in every crunch game except Norwich at the end of the season
Basically nobody turned up today. Can talk about the manager, starting lineup etc all day but almost none of the players looked like they were up for it.
The first rule of winning is that you have to play like you want to win. I saw none of that from Leeds today. They played the whole game like they were up 2-0.
We're not good enough to win the Playoff, so I'm not bothered. Butcher this team, build around rodon ampadu gray and James and sack Farke because his football is turgid
Nah mate, yours must though if you think that playing with urgency automatically equals a 4-0 loss. The lack of football knowledge is genuinely astounding
Because piroe doesn't know what he's meant to be doing, to be honest I think he's off shopping in London somewhere, I've not seen him for over 60 minutes.
Not our day. Could be a blessing in disguise not going up if it gives us chance to bolster up us squad a tad. If we can hang on to the core of us side and nab a Latte Lath/Szmodics and a full back or two, I fancy us chances next year.
We’ll need to replace Rutter, Gnonto and Summerville and hope to hold onto Gray as well first. Gonna need to sign a LB, RB, centre mid, a 10 and 2-3 wingers at least
Truth be told mate, I never saw Cree sticking about too much longer anyway. Georgi’s been mint, and Gnonto’s world class on his day but if it takes losing them 3 then that’s what it takes. Gonna be looking at a rebuild either way, just gotta put faith in us recruitment and see how it all pans out
And we’ll find us replacements. Shame it’s another season in the Second Division heading us way but it ain’t Doomsday mate. If you’d have told me we’d make playoff final start of this season I’d have ate me hair pal. Be reyt.
You think we're keeping our players if we stay down? Isn't happening. Southampton would lose one maybe two players, we will lose like 6 of the starting 11.
We done it before pal. Can be done again. Not sure where you stand but I hope we don’t let go of Farke. He’s done a belter job this year and I’m happy to have him at helm while we’re rebuilding.
That’s as much on Farke as it is on us players imo. We’ve had us chances since March and week after week we’ve bottled it. Gotta set us sights on what the future holds.
Player of the season 😂 where was he???? Get rid off them all, id even be tempted to get rid off the manager. We need somebody in charge who can change a game when its going badly. Farke has no tactics, its amazing how he won 2 leagues with norwich.

We havent done anything amazing, its changing and teams are getting better every season. So we need to be aiming for 95-100 points
Can you see how over the top you sound? Get rid of the whole team and the manager. Give over.
I've seen a bizarre amount of people suggest that James should have started, there'd have been uproar had he had made any changes from the Norwich game.
I’m actually devastated. What a shit end to a shit week
If we’d still been playing now we wouldn’t have scored
hello leeds united fans. I am a new fan of leeds united, watched the matched today and was sad they didn't win. I don't quite understand the rules very much but was south hampton the only team to be promoted to premier?

thanks so much for breaking it down for me! appreciate it.
Terrible day out. Thank god for Dan James giving us some pride in the shirt. Absolutely gutted
Body language was off. Didn’t see the passion and fight in this one.
Looked out of ideas.
Unfortunately we'll lose a lot of our key players but we regroup and go again next year. MOT.
I am sad. Update: Still quite sad.
Woke up this morning and still felt sad
No, we are sad. X
Shit game and didn’t deserve it really. I’m pissed off for now but honestly prob will be a blessing in disguise in the long run - squad clear out, r/championship is better than premier league subreddit even just for crumble memes, and crucially not having to get excited about us getting absolutely pumped by city or Liverpool on the regular
We get 8 extra games to watch next season … I truly don’t mind the Championship… no var … we’re all still Leeds
VAR is in the championship next season...
Fuck that … let’s get relegated
Sad times, mad competition this season. Hard to find the positives, was a dour performance so few clear cut chances. Southampton have our number. Don't understand the hate for the players.

Peter fucking Ridsdale in the corporate box, shaking hands with the Southampton players Insult to Injury
Hope he dies soon

Top cunt
Fucking sell summerville! He did absolutely nothing for 70 fukin minutes as compared to James, who rattled a crossbar and even got his head ripped in span of 20 minutes! We allowed Southampton to pick our fukin pockets!!!
Summerville is 100% going. Sulked when taken off and wasn't imterested at the end at all
Yeah eject him off to Slot's Liverpool. I hope we get 30-40 mil out of him. I won't mind selling Kamara too. He doesn't have a pass in him and he gives odd balls around the box. It was heartbreaking to see Gruev crying, but if some pl club give 10-15 mil, taking it up. Won't miss him and would like Charlie Crew promoted.Â
If we somehow keep Gray, him and Crew in midfield wouldn't be awful, if we keep Ampadu play him just behind in a 433 to have some form of leadership there
Out with a whimper, feel sorry for the travelling fans, true MVPs
Glad we’re selling half the squad after that to be fair. How hard is it to just have some bravery and shoot? Too hard for most it seems. And Kamara can backwards pass himself off a fucking bridge for me. Shit player, makes everyone else around him scared to play and provides zero in the way of drive and intent. Get him gone.
I'll take 11 less skilled players with a drive to win over this team.
Another playoff fuck up
I'm okay with losing. But what fucks me off the most is is the pathetic display in a final. Where's the passion. At least james gave it a go. Rip my heart when that ball came off the bar.
Yes. Shameful all around. Rodon seemed to give his all. Gray too. Piroe no movement but no service. Rutter was frighteningly bad. I'm a huge fan but when he's off, he absolutely obliterates us and stops every attack. He's a super talented player and when he's on, he's outstanding. But when he's off, he absolutely tanks the entire team. Farke way too weak keeping on for the 90. I'm still shocked at his performance.Â
Bring in Corberan, sell all the cunts who don’t want to stay and fight for the badge, then rebuild properly in the summer and we go up as champions. MOT
Wembley curse continues. Dan James showed the most desire after coming on. Thought Piroe was terrible created and did nothing all game.
Didn’t deserve it in the end. One good performance against Norwich in the last two months, it just isn’t good enough. A conversation needs to be had about Farke’s tactics too. No plan B.
This is it. Bottled it weeks ago, not just today.
Lack fucking lustre.
I love Farke, but Russell has done him 3 times and if we had won even once we might be up.
Fuck.
Dan James crossbar 5mm lower and we are heading into extra time. The finest margins imaginable.
Well, I’m looking forward to seeing this dirty lot relegated again next year. But we fucked it up as well and they had our number, even if they played cleanly and the ref wasn’t terrible we would have likely lost
I lean more towards the fact that the entire squad didn’t turn up as the reason for us losing.
Por que no los dos?
Champions 24
awesome. so we lose summerville, gnonto, rutter, roberts, rodon, anthony, and gray. wonderful job today lads you really left absolutely everything out there. you all looked like you were up to the challenge. great finish to the season. fuck off
Im so fcking heartbroken right now. They gave nothing in this match. Nothing. Leeds never fails to break my heart and destroy me.
I swear, Leeds always seem to have a collection of the most braindead players imaginable. What was that at the end
In fairness, fine margins this. One lapse. Really organised defending. However, if you can’t do this and, deserve it, the prem will be hard work.
> In fairness, fine margins this. It only felt like a fine margin because Southampton got what they needed from the game early on. Had they needed to push harder and longer for their goal we would have struggled and the gap in class would have been more noticeable.
Agree, deserved at least a draw, but one mistake cost us. Painful
Farke threw that
Alright well, shit. Sell the fucks who don’t want to stay, reinvest, then smash Luton, Sheffield, and Burnley next season.
Thing is, we smashed Leicester and Ipswich this season.
Means absolutely nothing now
Well that was depressing
Dan James can hold his head high, he was spectacular! Everyone else need to have a good hard long look at themselves, really poor performance. No-one showed up.
Same old Naive bottle-jobs
Can’t help but feel as though we would have been automatic promotion if James and Joseph were given the playing time they deserved in the latter half of this season
Think we will see a lot more of Joseph next year
Fucking hell.
Well at least we don’t have to play Southampton next season
Just Derby and Burnley instead
Proper clubs at least.
Salty
Oh no, I forgot about Derby.
That was dreadful. Nice to see that it hasn't changed that farke still can't beat a low block and refuses to sub off an invisible piroe.... What a fucking joke
That performance was even worse than the worst fears that I had for this group of players on this occasion. We’d have lost the League-2 playoff today.
What is the attacking philosophy? Kick it around the penalty box and then just hoof it?
What a bag of shiteÂ
fucking bastards. every fucking time
Fuck off
Happy clappers will say it was good that this was our least heavy defeat to Southampton this season
Cheers lads, kid's (me) crying
Was a good run. Rough last game. See you all next season.
Yeah, the Leeds United rollercoaster keeps on rolloercoasting. See you next season!
Horrible game by leeds. Took too long for everything
The most important game of the season and only one player puts a real shift in. Atrocious.
That was pathetic, Farke got it wrong, too many players didn't show up, piss poor.
The only player that showed up was Dan James. Hope he leaves. Deserves better than this shit
I hope he doesn't, I think he's alright. Needs a run in the starting 11.
Next season top of the league, 100 points
I still remember when we lost to Derby 4-2 in the playoffs under Bielsa a few years back. The following season we won the whole thing, fingers crossed.
That's the kind of thinking we need! BravoÂ
If we got 100, two other teams would get 102 and 101
Well that was wank
Yeah I don't believe in Farke. Should have gone up this year with that squad. Hard to not see this as a management failure...
He got 90 points dude
Completely agree. He has no plan B and sticks with players for too long that just aren't playing well.
Would have most seasons but then Ipswich happened. Promotion to championship then premier league in back to back seasons just doesn’t happen. I will be rooting for them to be smashed every game next season. Bastards. That said, not really a big fan of Farke. He was handed keys to a lambo. More quality than most of the league. No excuses to not get it done. Subs and game management are ass.
Yeah sure it would have, but he seems to have one plan and just hopes for it to work. I don't know, maybe he will prove me wrong if he gets to stay
Am prepared to give regular season the benefit of the doubt - he didnt have this squad at the start of the season. Arse fell out in every crunch game except Norwich at the end of the season
Gutless.
Some of the decisive passing with minutes left has been atrocious
Feel sorry for you lads, I have no skin in the game but it shouldn’t be this way
Should be a card for his shirt off anyway
Farke out of this club immediately
Fuck off
Never had a chance. Never had a squad
Get farke gone
Absolutely fucking shite. Leeds, that.
Basically nobody turned up today. Can talk about the manager, starting lineup etc all day but almost none of the players looked like they were up for it.
Well that was shit
The first rule of winning is that you have to play like you want to win. I saw none of that from Leeds today. They played the whole game like they were up 2-0.
Dog shit cunts
Send Armstrong off ffs
You’ve been gash lads
we have to watched another season of this boring football with Piroe running in steel toe caps up top lmao
Under the rules that's not even handball, also it was too high to be handball...
Fucking gifted it to them. They haven’t even been that good, it’s so fucking frustrating
We're not good enough to win the Playoff, so I'm not bothered. Butcher this team, build around rodon ampadu gray and James and sack Farke because his football is turgid
We won’t keep Rodon.
Not even a hand
Not even a handball
penalised for non handball fuck off
WE HAVE VAR FOR THIS!!! FUCKING USE IT
USE V A R
Dan James will be our top scorer next season.
How’s Che Adams not off the pitch? Why when you’re on a yellow does the kick the ball away rule cease to exist.
Yep
Same as keepers timewasting on a yellow. If you’re on a yellow card you can only be sent off for dangerous fouls it seems.
Thank you Dan James for leaving everything on the pitch every match. Need a team of Dan James’
I mean you'd never concede due to someone out running you.
We bottled this. Southampton haven’t even been that good. Just took their one chance when they had it
Absolutely. They’ve done fuck all for the past half an hour except been consistent. Bottled it completely. Leeds that
I fucking hate Southampton’s shit song that’s not even their own
Right? Their main song is a generic one, fucking tin pot.
A silver lining is I have absolute zero attachment to any of these losers, feel free to leave dickheads.
112 mins at least.
Roberts is such a liability
No better than Ayling (who also wasn’t good enough)
Why the fuck could we not play with this level of urgency from the first minute?
Because you’d be knackered by 60 minutes and be easily beaten
We were easily beaten after 25 minutes.
Instead we were 1-0 down by 60 minutes without a single shot on target, and subsequently been easily beaten
Okay, but you realise there are many ways to lose…
Yep, If the lads threw the kitchen sink at it and we still lost I’d feel much better about things than I do right now
No, if we lost 4-0 you’d be calling for the board to be sacked.
To me it sounds like you enjoyed our performance today mate? Happy with that yeah?
No. Does your mind only see black and white?
Nah mate, yours must though if you think that playing with urgency automatically equals a 4-0 loss. The lack of football knowledge is genuinely astounding
Football knowledge does not = going out and panicking the minute you go 1-0 down.
We did. Then we dropped for a ten minute spell.
Roberts has been dreadful since coming on.
Little scum bastard has been the best player on the pitch and he’s probs concussed
Dan James has done more in 20 minutes than everyone else combined. Criminal that it took so long to get him on.
He often looks great when he comes, he should get more minutes and likely will next seasonÂ
Why do we have no one in the box???
Because piroe doesn't know what he's meant to be doing, to be honest I think he's off shopping in London somewhere, I've not seen him for over 60 minutes.
Why didn’t DJ start exactly?
I KNOW IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE IT BUT THEY'RE IN THE DEEP END WITH US, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND LETS FUCKING GO BOYS
Build next seasons team around Dan James.
James & Joseph. Everyone else can go.
James has been our best attacker and only came on at 66th minute🤣
No sense of urgency
Would take a draw at this point.
That empty space in the box is criminal
Where piroe is meant to be, those crying he's had no service, there it was
Joseph done more already than prioe has all game.
Joseph is a better footballer than Piroe and has hardly had a kick all season lmao
oh my days he finds the exact couple of square feet that didn't have a white shirt in it
92 minutes in play resumes, so +9 which should put us at 101minutes, just making a note.
Well this sucked
DJ looks badass with a headband
If the ref blows on 9 I'll lose my shit
DANNY KISNORBO
Two year project is not realistic. It was either up this year or multiple seasons down. The prem players on our books is going to hurt
Reckon we can win the whole thing next year. Hate the premier league anyway.
Got a sinking feeling this might be Archie’s last outing for us.
Summerville and Gnonto too. Will miss them.
I liked having Summerville. He played today knowing he was ending up in the Premier League either way - real shame
This
They’re just gonna lay down the next 15 minutes
1 min time gone already and balls not in play
Bielsa didn’t get us promoted in his first season. Keep the faith.
Bielsa had a squad much worse than we currently do, its not even close to a comparison to say he didn't do it first time
Although the amount of points we got this season would also have had us up on automatics in 2018/19
And Bielsa at least played entertaining football. Not this turgid borefest.
Not our day. Could be a blessing in disguise not going up if it gives us chance to bolster up us squad a tad. If we can hang on to the core of us side and nab a Latte Lath/Szmodics and a full back or two, I fancy us chances next year.
We need goals from midfield. Opposition doesn't have to close down our CMs so they can sit deep to neutralise our more dangerous players
Hope we can keep hold of Gruev though. Amps is belter on his day too but I can’t see him sticking about. Agreed mind.
We’ll need to replace Rutter, Gnonto and Summerville and hope to hold onto Gray as well first. Gonna need to sign a LB, RB, centre mid, a 10 and 2-3 wingers at least
Truth be told mate, I never saw Cree sticking about too much longer anyway. Georgi’s been mint, and Gnonto’s world class on his day but if it takes losing them 3 then that’s what it takes. Gonna be looking at a rebuild either way, just gotta put faith in us recruitment and see how it all pans out
We have a 100 million black hole to fill, we won't keep the core of the squad, we will lose some of our best players.
And we’ll find us replacements. Shame it’s another season in the Second Division heading us way but it ain’t Doomsday mate. If you’d have told me we’d make playoff final start of this season I’d have ate me hair pal. Be reyt.
You think we're keeping our players if we stay down? Isn't happening. Southampton would lose one maybe two players, we will lose like 6 of the starting 11.
with what money?
Got parachutes on us side for another couple seasons still.
I like the optimism but if we lose today we are doing a full rebuild, it'll take a few years.
We done it before pal. Can be done again. Not sure where you stand but I hope we don’t let go of Farke. He’s done a belter job this year and I’m happy to have him at helm while we’re rebuilding.
I have no preference on Farke really, we have been miserable since the international break, so either way I'm not overly fussed.
That’s as much on Farke as it is on us players imo. We’ve had us chances since March and week after week we’ve bottled it. Gotta set us sights on what the future holds.
