Re: [LU] LU: Win
One very strange game - first half where we reversed polarity, meaning we had minimal possession, but were leading despite getting the run around at times, as opposed to Cardiff and 70% possession but wouldn’t have scored even if the game was still going on now. Second half - humiliated them tactically and physically. What a weird half Alioski had, started brilliantly with a goal, then scuffed shots, terrible crosses, dire passes, but his energy, that was pivotal. As for Hernandez - I doubt he’s had such an influential 30 minute cameo ever - great decision by Tubby Bielsa, who’s clearly missed the training ground :-) I thought White was immense today, and he bossed that surly pillock he was up against - Mitrovic will surely get a suspension for his stupidity? Despite Bamford’s goal, which was very classy, he had a woeful first half, but whether the ice-pack on his knee was mere window-dressing to mask his substitution I don’t know. After Philips’ cock-up last week I’m keeping a closer eye on him - he does make some very dodgy passes way too close to goal (McLaren said he wasn’t an Ingerland player yet - thank you Captain Obvious!). Nice to see Douglas back too. So, could it be, that we are not going to take the difficult path, or would that just not be the Leeds way? Whatever, when Harrison scored I could finally enjoy it, and doesn’t the league table look nice tonight? For anyone listening on Sky, just how irritating is Steve McLaren? He seems to have forgotten his own sorry managerial record. Smarminess personified!

Re: [LU] LU: Win
Defining or not that was a great result Not much either way till Bamford defied his critics an scored a good goalAfter that the most unBielsa perfomance for ages , and we clung on a bit till half time. Great subs at ht and we started to play Bielsa ball and deserved the second which was game overFirst half they had only one real chance when Mitrovic ( who should have a red) missed a decent header, the rest of their " dominance " meant 2 or 3 long range shots . 1 0 at half time flattered us a bit Great subs by the great man WGUAFC Got to believe now Dave On Saturday, 27 June 2020, 17:55:31 BST, Chris Nickson wrote: A Dave Nattan said earlier, a season-defining game, and the way we came back in the second half was the real definition of it.

Re: [LU] Season defining game?
At the moment, I just want to avoid the nightmare scenario of us going to Shame Park for the penultimate game and Derb-scum beating us, thereby knocking us down to 3rd and them up to 6th and then having to play them again in the playoffs. Anything that avoids that is goodand a win today would help a lot!

Re: [LU] David DRB Brennan
I did see your posting Betty much earlier but apart from one thing and another left responding till today as it seemed appropriate. It's a long time since I physically saw David but the first time we meet was back in the Adolphi, those when the days three o'clock Saturday afternoon was when all games kicked-off with the very rare exception, and that's where I mostly came across him. Of course there was also the MOALM. Thanks for reposting the report on that Betty. That was the first we meet if I remember rightly. First time for putting a face to quite a few other listers as well. Top night, top weekend, just a pity spoilt by the footy. David we will all miss you, we'll miss your most excellent match reports. There have been some excellent tributes and reminiscences from Gav through other (former) illustrious list names. Let me add mine and my condolences to his family, to Kate and the kids, and all who knew and cared for him. Sorry you're gone. I'm presuming it wasn't the virus on top of the other problems you had but may you rest in peace and wherever you are I hope you can still follow what's going on. Now let's have a great match and good victory for DRB this afternoon. guy On 25 Jun 2020 at 15:46, John Boocock wrote: Dear All, Earlier this week we heard of the sad death of one of the earliest members and most loved characters from the list, David "DRB" Brennan. Not only was DRB a list regular in the 90s as a trawl through the archives held by James Lundon proved but he also wrote a lot of good stuff. As a season ticket-holder he used to go to reserve matches at The Shay and (as well as Maggie Barber) post regular reports of the reserves' progress. He was a regular source of ticket information and became very friendly with Mandy in the ticket office especially when trying to find out what times cup matches would be played and what the ticket allocations would be. DRB and his wife Kate were part of a gang that regularly met pre-match (he was an Adolphi regular), he was at the MOALM and he was the man behind the sponsored head shave at the first Euronet in 1996. Like others on the list he was a Northern Soul boy, coming from Horsforth what else would he be? One of the friendliest, funniest and kindest blokes I have had the pleasure to meet he will always be the example I would use of what the list is about. DRB leaves behind, Kate and the two boys Sid and Bradley and we have been in touch to send our sympathy. No date has been set for what will be a very small family funeral but his brother-in-law suggests there might be a memorial service in the future. The family has asked, if anyone wishes to, that donations are made to MIND which is a charity DRB supported. (https://www.mind.org.uk/donate/) We checked with the family before we posted anything to the list and they were happy for us to do this. As we get more information, we will pass this on but in the meantime please enjoy the following post to the list from 1996, it's typical of the DRB we knew and loved (that and the bloody song he wrote about Tomas Brolin!)

HW: Well, all things considered, and bearing in mind that our players have had a hectic autograph signing session recently, and it will be a bit chilly, I think 11 players will suffice. Interviewer: Mr Wilkinson, does this mean that even though your African players are back from international duty, you will not use them? HW: All things being equal, Tony, Phil and Lucas are definitely players, and players want to play, want to play, but there can only be so many players, who play, so they may play a part in playing but it's not so warm for players who normally play, normally play, in a warmer climate. Interviewer: It was suggested that in the Aston Villa game, you may have been better playing an attacking side, as the defence, containing so many youngsters, was unlikely to keep Villa out, offence being the best sort of defence. HW: Youngsters, youngsters. I was young once, and wanted to play, wanted to play. You've got to give them a goal, I mean go, they may be short of pace, but Rob Bowman has got the same name as the Producer of the X Files, so who knows what might happen, might happen.

Re: [LU] Season defining game?
Let's not be carried away. Today is not defining for us. It could be for Fulham if they lose. We lose and we are still 4 points clear. The defining game is Luton. Win that and we are 4 clear with 5 to go ( in the worst scenario). Losing against Fulham is not the end of the world. Losing against Luton, even if we win today, can deeply affect the moral we need over the last stretch. Important- yes. Defining -- no it is not. As a team we know our strengths and weaknesses. Keeping 'mental strength' out of it, we have more likelihood of winning than not. But likelihood is not certainty. I worry about our mental strength over the last 5 games. For me Luton is the key and Fulham the appetizer. I firmly believe that we will sweat and yet get there. Good luck to us all.
