EASY, DEVIN: English Football League and beyond, 2018/19

free from Mick McCarthy ennui

meanwhile we've become the best team in League One, probably a few weeks too late but it's nice anyhow. i'd have us favourites for the playoffs, and automatic isn't out of the question. we have a couple of insanely good loan signings from west ham and arsenal. london privilege eh

Also, Dommy P may be gone, but his spirit prevails https://www.skysports.com/football/southend-vs-wycombe/393597

Sorry nbs but once Guiseley went ahead today I thought it was stuck on.

Chorley bottling it is a laugh, I guess they hadn't noticed Stockport have got Nuneaton in their last game.

Leeds every so slightly making an arse of this. How sad.

LOL yes, this game is on in the pub I'm in, Brentford have totally stolen it.

surely with Bielsa the maverick genius at the helm, the white shite haven't just pissed away an auto-promotion spot:P

i'm ready

i don't get ready until 2 games to go these days

Leeds also have Villa next :D

It's been nailed on for a while, tbh. Going to be very difficult to get back up.

If you were wondering if Leeds Utd were still wretched fucking scum they've just scored after pretending they were going to put the ball out for an injured player and then got Al Ghazi sent off by faking being punched in the ensuing melee

Bielsa made them let Villa walk an equaliser in, tbf. The red was a joke, though.

Yeah and Jansson tried to tackle Adomah while he was walking it in

Play acting for the red card was shocking, was in the pub having lunch with our Han so couldn't work out all the other stuff. I wondered what Villa's goal was about!

I really hate players pretending to be punched or elbowed or head butted or whatever.

I do think that the kind of trickster business that gets the other side to slow down or switch off or whatever is hilarious though. It's very annoying when it happens to my lot because it means someone has made chumps of my team.

I think if Danny Mills is on the telly saying something's "morally wrong" the chances are it's probably alright and I suppose Villa should be proud that their staff cleave so strongly to Corinthian sporting ideals that they were forced to initiate scraps right across (and off) the pitch.

Can't say I blame Bielsa for telling them to let Villa score, given what happened last time his lot did something that wasn't against the rules but apparently offended English football's "morals".

I am angry that watching the clip of this has resulted in my seeing John Terry's face, I did not want that to happen.

Patrick Bamford is a bell end.

Pass it on.

didn't SV previously post that Bamford is related to the tory donors involved in the Seabourne Freight/Chris Grayling scandal? He sure looks a bona fide tory boy in that clip! dirty ..dirty ... dirty L**ds.

shit refereeing too, he's sent El-Ghazi off for something that he can't have seen

i don't like leeds, i don't care what anyone says

I see Patrick Bamford has been charged with "successful deception of a match official", but to be honest with you folks, if it were up to me, he would be being charged with "a 100-strong unit of heavily armoured shock cavalry"

What a goal that is for Eastleigh in the National League playoffs pic.twitter.com/OOslUam5eZ

armchair supporting the Stags and Wimbledon today.

..and the bloomin' Grecians as well of course!

Scholes 'sure' to seek Ferguson advice

old headlines on L2 area of bbc site that 'sure' deliver the EFLols.

arrgh! fucking franchise score in the 1st minute.

fuck's sake.

I am medically dead

have you considered an additional small heart

lol

Even with the suspensions, Albion should probably have hit four with that Villa performance

Dirty Leeds vs Frank Lampard's Derby County ©

tough hate call

There is a sort of air of grinding inevitability that's coalesced around Leeds

I mean, there was with Hillary too, but, y'know

wd probably prefer to see Leeds in the final after that last Leeds - Villa game but obv rooting for you guys anyway

id love to see bielsa in the prem

the nobility of the resources utilized!

as would i but not this way, not this way

Frank should probably have explained to Derby that Leeds love the banter, they live for this shit, they will feed on your tears

Jay Rumball: Hoping for a Derby miracle tonight, Chelsea fan so always backing super Frank! C'mon the Rams, 3-1.

COME ON YOU LEEDS

well that was quick

28 mins
RED CARD Mason Mount (Derby County)
Things go from bad to worse for Derby as the youngster is issued a straight red for raining a series of brutal stomps onto the skull of a prone Patrick Bamford after the two had tussled while contesting a Derby corner. It looks as if the infernal god to whom Bamford pays tribute has gifted him with a grotesque additional head for every blow he received during the incident, which you have to think will significantly increase the Leeds man's aerial threat.

derby score

Sounds like comedy defending

V funny comedy of errors between keeper and defender, which then almost happened again immediately after

Bamford also got booked for a dive that was probably actually a Leeds penalty idk

We may have earlier given the impression that Leeds United Football Club enjoys, and even thrives on, atmospheres of disquiet and chaos. We regret any confusion caused by this error.

RIP Bielsa

Can't see this finishing with 11 v 11

Obviously it wasn't worth going out to watch this by-the-numbers encounter in the pub

*raises glass*

Classic choke

;_;
