He was fouled plenty of times in the same way for us I remember but rarely got the decisions. I remember that one down a villa in 2014? Right in front of us fans in the corner. Remember it didn't even get shown on the MOTD highlights when got home to see it.

I mean even if it is the club and the consortium behind it. It suggests no agreement with premier league is in place and this is just the threat of legal action that we hope will scare them into submission.

If its been prepared by someone with more power in the takeover then surely it would carry far more weight if the club and the consortium put their names to it?

Aye, that letter appears desperate to me and despite it expressing desire to resolve quickly, it looks exactly like the sort of thing that could take months or years. I hope this is a separate thing entirely and not what we thought was going on in the background.

I wonder if they asked Keith in that interview why Marvellous Mike is still charging fans season ticket money? If he apparently wants to make things "cheaper for the fans".

Regarding the takeover. I stick by my original hope that, as hard as it is to be kept in the dark, I would still rather not hear anything about it until its locked in and complete. Felt like last time once the cat was out the bag, too many outside influences managed to get their ore in to help fuck it up. I really appreciate Mimms and his info, if it proves correct, because it has helped keep the hope alive. But I don't want any leaks to the press or anything to appear until its impossible for anything to stop the deal. ?

It's a Saturday night mate relax. It's only Tim Sherwood. This is true

God I try to avoid sky with there blatant xenophobic attitudes towards managers but for some reason I clicked on that clip. I mean anyone of us could rip apart every single thing that cunt has said there. It's so infuriating there is no balance and no one to call out bullshit like this and all the spiel that constantly gets said about Rafa. I'd like to think deep down these idiotic pundits don't really believe what they are saying and it comes from the their bosses telling them to be nice to British managers and slag off the foreigners but I honestly don't know anymore.

I don't care if someone is just making things up and stringing us a long (don't think they are for what it's worth) But this potential takeover is the only hope left. As someone else said I'm not going to bother caring and getting flustered over how shit Bruce is because it's all irrelevant unless this goes through. If it does I just hope there's still time left in the season to salvage something and avoid relegation.

Thought it might be ? My bad someone sent it me on WhatsApp

Not sure if it was posted already. I hope our defenders are told not to tackle him as he's made of glass or he's just taking the piss out of them ?

Whether it's happening or not, I'd much prefer if we heard nothing and then it's announced officially out the blue. Whenever there are leaks or rumours about this or that, then there is always time for things to go wrong and my hope to get destroyed. Just like before. I'd rather skip the hope stage this time and skip straight to a celebration. Fast forward to the ending please ??

We don't deserve him. He's too good

One man team

No one cares.

? I still can't get my head around how terrible that attempt of a save was.

Had a random thought about when was the last time we won at anfield. 1994 apparently. There will be plenty of people on this board that weren't even born ?

?

I mean.. He's just dropped to the floor there but no one gonna mention that on commentary? Hate those sort of pens. I get the whole letter of the law stuff and he shouldnt slide in like thst but he didn't actually make any contact cus de bruyne was already diving to the floor. When did anticipating the contact replace actually contact?

If ever there was a game to showcase how important a manager actually is and how he coaches and sets up the team then this was it. 1 team clearly had a plan and strategy to play to their strengths and expose our weaknesses. The other was square pegs in round holes in a rigid, dated system with no consideration for the opposition and no philosophy in how to attack, other than give it to Saint maximin and pump it into Carroll. I'm annoyed with myself for watching the first 2 games and caring at all. I told myself I was done after the takeover collapse. But with the ? About where the dust will settle on that and the general intrigue with it being a new season I got lured in. Thanks for Bruce for waking me up and snapping me out of it again. Not gonna waste time watching him embarrass our club all season.

?

That cheeky nutmeg he did while waiting for someone to get their arse in the box did catch me by surprise I'll admit. Then the goal capped off a fairly solid debut in fairness. Just hope long term we don't have to see frasier/almiron on the bench because we need that "extra defensive reinforcement"

?

As if our game has to follow this haha. Gonna be like a different sport

Game being played at a ridiculous pace. Leeds look like a quick team themselves.
