Leeds United - v - Hull City ** Carabao Cup ***Matchday Thread***

[alfinyalcabo]

The man should never play for Leeds again, in any capacity.

Any of our GKs would have performed as well, they dont cost us £50k/week, and its unlikely they would attempt "clearances" of the sort we saw from Casilla and to add insult to injury by giving him the armband is just mind-numbingly stupid (IMHO).

Absolutely spot on WTF.. Imagine giving that Cnut the armband.. Unbelievable.

Not as unbelievable as you jumping off that drowning ship and coming on board a luxury liner lol.

Yeah but that is your 50-year cup run we are going to the top hehe.

I disagree with what you mean. First, against Liverpool, he was brought in as a sub, and a team full of confidence done zip. In the cup, he was brought in A for match fitness and to play against a team 2 lvls below us and it was a whole new team so they would have as much time to adjust to the Hull way of playing. The whole team was crap but someone with his reputation and credentials you would have thought he would have shown us something. Pav on the wing didn't get much service but at least he showed something.
Team talk for fulham is that he and Koch won't be starting as Cooper is taking Koch spot and the kid retains his place.

Think we're at cross swords here

Neither of both (nor anyone else but Orta and the "higher execs"), want Casilla to wear a Leeds shirt (of any colour or level), again, or am I wrong?

WHY has he not apologised?

My guess is that he still feels he has said nothing that amounts to been racist plus the fact he was charged on the fact he probably said it rather than 100% proof that he actually said it.

Current climate means he will be forever tarnished and it would be best for all concerned that he found another club abroad as his presence at our club means there is always going to be a black cloud hanging around.

Totally agree Rev, everyone jumping on the racist card, it was never proven that he actually said anything, does this type of accusation/judgement apply outside of a football pitch.

Its not his fault the wages...And I know he can be a bit of a prat in goal with the odd mistake in him, that never stopped me liking Gary Sprake.

Rev said black cloud..... RACIST!

Rev said black cloud..... RACIST!

As per the last conversation we all had about this, from the submitted documentation - the evidence was overwhelming and damning.

If only he was a good keeper, it would help it to go away, but.......
