Leeds United - v - Southampton ***Matchday Thread***

[Rev72]

Never should have come to this we had automatic in the palm of our hands and bottled it!

So next season we will have a weaker team and the same manager!

Go figure……

Went the way I expected it to really, will watch with glee to see the horrible 3 teams promoted take a battering each week…..jealous and bitter…..to right I am.

[Rev72]

Only consolation is all 3 that have gone up will all probably come back down

[bathlad61]

Too many no -shows again, Rutter, Piroe, Summerville, really the whole team sadly, and this a cup final game. James & Joseph much better, but again far to late in the game. Performance a million miles away from the Norwich game at ER. Farke will never adapt long term, yes not a good day at the office, much to ponder and quickly for the 49ers.

Deep down we knew it mate didn’t we?

When you get automatic promotion just about gift wrapped for you and then proceed to do one of the biggest bottle jobs in championship history , then you get to play a team in the final who’s manager has got Farke in his pocket, well was only ever going to be one outcome.

What a waste of a season.

Don't think so. Leicester and Southampton have owners with a vision, commitment and a degree of financial clout. They will struggle for sure, but I think they will survive. Ipswich have the vision and a very strong fan base, but I don't think they have either a squad that can survive As is" and they don't have vast sums of money to spend on strengthening. I suspect we will see them back with us in 25/26 (assuming of course that we can avoid relegation to League 1!)

They will all be in a relegation battle in my opinion and I predict at least two will come back down.

We shall see

Most, agreed, but ironically Meslier made a couple of saves that kept us at least in touching distance, Gray was as good as he could be in a position where he simply isn't able to showcase his talents at their best, James, Roberts and Joseph showed what could have been if Der Fuhrer wasn't such a stubborn inept tw4t.
