A little testosterone overload. Not a bad thing if you control it and focus it. some great players played on the "edge" quite a bit.

a lot at stake for these youngsters.

Always thought 'our Norman' was quite laid back .......

[WTF11]

I can just hear the lips smacking at Lancaster Gate

All for passion (too little of it nowadays) but pitch brawls by players isn't likely to enamour us to the powers that be (yes, I know, they all hate Leeds and we don't care, but some of us do). Don't need unwanted attention we could/should avoid

"Typical fkn Leeds" as someone shouted..... Rhyl team apparently diving in with two footed challenges all match and laughing when game abandoned.

Grown men having a go at our Very Young Team... not on

Nice to see the fighting spirit in our young lads.

Don't be surprised if we get a fine and a 10 point deduction

Well..it is Leeds after all

Sorry Rev, no it isn't nice to see, for exactly the reason you refer, even in jest.

Not many fans travel to see the development squad, they do for the 1st team, home and away. If the authorities do decide to take action (and I suspect they are at least considering it, given the launching of flags at ER recently), try telling fans who see a points deduction and/or playing matches behind closed doors that the "fighting spirit" was so desirable.

Spot on.

Just out of interest did you watch the video or read the comments, or is it your usual it's all Leeds fault.

A mens team v an u23's, I know where I'd put the majority of the blame.

Rhyl are holding an internal investigation into it.... note they haven't accused LUFC of anything

Should have known the common sense comment would generate the usual from you. Yes I watched the video, and since when did Leeds EVER get a fair hearing from those in positions of footballing authority? (and what the f00k does it matter what the outcome of the Rhyll enquiry or who they do or don't blame going to have on Leeds FFS?

Doesn't matter a tuppenny cuss who started it, why it started, simply that it involved a Leeds team (the age of the team will be irrelevant to those I refer to in positions of authority) and that it follows hard on the heels of the "disruption" caused by Leeds fans when they launched their club-supplied flags onto the pitch at ER.

My comment didn't refer to blame (then again, why would you be interested in what it actually said). it referred to the consequences to the club and fans of actions which a few contributors here seem to think was a good thing, I respectfully disagree, you presumably don't. You're entitled to your opinion, but maybe it would be a little more worthy of respect if it wasn't couched in terms that are there simply because I was the one who posted, eh pumpkin?
