If you want free parking you might be best parking at the top of Beeston Hill around the Cross Flats Park area. It’s a nice bit of exercise going back up as well !

Cheers

sadly micks knackered nowadays

Yeah real shame. He was knackered when he was playing unfortunately, he had early onset arthritis but they kept pumping his knee full of cortisone injections. The medical people didn’t have the info therefore the knowledge back in his day. Proper centre forward, good in the air, great striker of the ball, worked his socks off and a great team player.

What a horrible game. How we struggled so much against a team battling to stay in the football league was a little unsettling. Some of the so called better players were really poor at times. Ampadu gave the ball away and lost possession in dangerous areas far too much, Ramazani, despite his goal, performed badly and his execution of shots and passes was terrible. Gnonto showed why he isn’t in the starting line up and Rothwell lacked creative spark and a killer pass. Joseph was unlucky when he hit the post but generally flattered to deceive again. All in all a really tepid display.

Agreed. though i wouldn't say Guilivogi was a disaster, i thought he did ok considering how long he's not played for. got caught out of position a couple of times but the mins in his legs will do him wonders. He's better in midfiled though imo.

Schmidt looked like he could be decent given more game time, Darlow was good, produced a great save and collected the ball well - he was tested quite a bit with crosses and long throws, so was a nice work out for him. He's been playing really well for Wales apparently.

Joseph, just looks rusty and shot of confidence.. and he's not developed that killer instinct in and around the box. I think we need a striker in Jan. If Piroe gets injured we could be in bother.

Yes I agree with what you guys have said and personally didn`t think Guilivogi was a disaster especially playing out of position.
Having said that we were playing a team almost Non league.
Reading some of the posts on other social media sites it`s interesting how Ampadu isn`t getting slated as I thought he was really poor.
And Gnonto again doesn`t appear to be the answer up front or as the 10 despite what Farke is saying.

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Sun Jan 12, 2025 3:22 pm  

I thought guilivogi was bloody awful at CH. should have given a penalty away and looked uncomfortable all the way through.
I'd hate to see him there in the championship

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Sun Jan 12, 2025 4:12 pm  

You might be right Tad and I might have been over generous considering who we were playing.
I`m hoping Farke has the balls and gives Darlow the starting jersey on Sunday.
Although I`m not convinced he`s the long term answer.
We`ve now distanced ourselves from signing the Hoffenheim striker.
Buendia and McAtee my preferred choice for 10 or an out and out 9.
