The Leeds fan

@GrahamSmyth Same wembley story

Full-time. Leeds United 0-1 Chelsea The what-ifs will haunt Leeds United. A game they could have won but didn't. Didn't take the chances, conceded a sloppy goal. #lufc

@henrywinter I really hope that Wednesday can be saved an historic club unfortunately an irresponsible owner who clearly didnt care about the football club or its fans.

Sheffield Wednesday are one of the oldest football clubs in the world, their famous name woven into the tapestry of the game. Formed in 1867, elected to the Football League in 1892, founder members of the Premier League, four times champions of England, three times winners of the FA Cup, and the League Cup once. Such honours may be far back in history but Wednesday remain a powerful force in many lives, in families, communities, in Sheffield and beyond. It would be devastating to Wednesday supporters and deeply damaging to the reputation of English football if Wednesday lost their membership of the EFL because of the behaviour of an owner in Dejphon Chansiri who passed initial EFL ownership tests, was welcomed (let’s not forget), but turned out to be shamelessly irresponsible. Wednesday fans fear the club's existence might be at risk if the EFL imposes further punishments and restrictions that deter potential buyers. Stronger oversight of owners is clearly required and the EFL and PL did tighten their rules in 2023. The new Independent Football Regulator will introduce a proper licensing system for clubs and better oversight of owners. Unfortunately, the IFR did not come into force early enough to prevent Wednesday's downward slide under Chansiri. Wednesday are currently in administration and threatened with further EFL sanctions – a 15-point deduction for next season. This season's 18-point deduction all but guaranteed relegation from the Championship (confirmed on Feb 22). The League applies sanctions as punishment for debts and also as a deterrent to other clubs/owners. The EFL emphasises it is working with all parties to “try and find a solution that can see Sheffield Wednesday continue as a member of the League....but ultimately we have to also apply the terms of the League’s insolvency policy…which seeks to balance the interests, not only of Sheffield Wednesday, but also of the other 71 clubs”. Sheffield Wednesday Supporters' Trust, fighting hard for their club’s survival, has now released a copy of the EFL’s insolvency policy and argues that it gives the League, in the Trust’s words, “absolute discretion when determining how to deal with clubs experiencing an insolvency event”. The Trust argues that “…further punitive sanctions risk undermining the very factors the EFL states it must consider - including the effect on supporters, the impact on the local community and the wider credibility of the league itself. “Sheffield Wednesday supporters are not seeking advantage over other clubs. It is entirely right that all EFL clubs should be treated fairly and consistently. That principle must include Sheffield Wednesday that has already suffered enormously during a decade in which the EFL’s own regulatory oversight failed to prevent the damage that unfolded. “We urge the EFL to apply its own guidance responsibly and ensure that the focus now is on allowing the club to recover, stabilise and move forward under new ownership. Sheffield Wednesday supporters have suffered enough.” #SWFC #EFL @SWFCTrust

@GrahamSmyth Could have 120 minutes and we wouldnt score

90 - Gnonto jumps over a sliding O'Nien and catches him with his backside. Yellow card. TWELVE minutes added on. 0-1 #lufc

@GrahamSmyth I cant understand why he doesn't play 2 up top when it was clearly working before now we've gone back to trying to play it safe and its not working we shouldn't be losing to Sunderland for god sake we clearly needed reinforcements in January and its now showing why we needed them

Diarra scores. Darlow went the right way but couldn't keep it out. One of the least deserved results of the season could be on. But this is on Leeds. They haven't done enough at all. And the set-up hasn't worked. James and Gnonto run back to the dugout. 0-1 #lufc

@DeadlineDayLive I couldn't agree more, I would happily stay in the championship every season every team can beat each other the way the Premier league used to be before money spoilt the game. The Premier league is corrupt to the core

🚨🌳 This Nottingham Forest fan gives his opinion on a potential relegation: 🗣️ “Championship again for you soon." Oh yeah, 3PM kick offs, cheap booze, ground filled with non-plastics and no VAR. How on earth will we survive?” He's got a great point to be fair. You hvae to admit that VAR has completely ruined the 'spectacle' of football. 👏👏

Is the leeds vs norwich game sold out already? We was waiting for general sale monday for tickets, surely the ground cant be sold out already?

Pete Wicks faced criticism when he said ~ “I prefer dogs to most people. Dogs never let you down or gossip about you, give me a dog any day. At least dogs don't take offence when you say something they don't like! At least dogs aren't two faced, they either like you or they don't and they're usually a good judge of character.” RT if you agree with him ~ I certainly do.

@GrahamSmyth Perri was man of the match I dont think any of those players today had a match winning performance they really made hard work of it, extra time we didnt need but for me Gnonto, Tanaka dont deserve to be in the first team for me and Facundo needs first team mins not upto speed yet

Longstaff walks slowly back to halfway to shake hands with the home players. Other Leeds players run to Perri and jump on him and celebrate in front of away fans. That was so far from vintage Leeds but they're in the hat. This is now a cup run. #lufc

@GrahamSmyth Birmingham for me have wanted it more but the ref hasn't been great for me secondly they have spent more time on the floor crying for every foul and even tried to cheat for a penalty trust me they dont need to do that we will give them the game we are that poor today

Leeds fell asleep completely, throw in taken and puts Osman in at the back stick, he beats Perri and finds the upright. The follow up shot was blocked. Leeds a lick of paint from an FA Cup exit. Now 30 minutes of football that they didn't really want. 1-1 #lufc

@GrahamSmyth Get fucked!!!!! Typical fucking master class of trying to sit on a one goal lead yet again 🙄

Goal Birmingham. 1-1 #lufc

@GrahamSmyth That first half was poor a typical leeds early kick off performance, way off the pace giving birmingham so much space to play in leeds second to most balls but hate divers and cheats. Leeds need to wake up this second half or a birmingham goal is gonna be inevitable

HT Birmingham City 0-0 Leeds United A poor half from the Whites. Not enough control in midfield. No platform up top. Second best in a lot of duels. But level thanks to Perri. #lufc

@GrahamSmyth None of them have woken up yet our midfield is shocking just so easy for birmingham to find space and what tanaka is doing god knows

Leeds are getting a bit of a battering here. Justin slips, Birmingham look in again and another shot is blocked in the area. No control whatsoever for the visitors. 0-0 #lufc

@ConorMcGilligxn There not injured mate is from stupid source waccoe

@benonwine This would have been normal in the 80s growing up we wouldnt dare speak to the police or our elders like that otherwise that above is what we would get from anyone we cheeked off, kids getaway with murder these days and do what they want so no I do t agree.

Omg that just a child , pure police brutality in my opinion, just no need for that level of force look at the size of the kid. 😡😡😡 Was this Police Brutality or Justified?

@CFCMods Aged well 🤣🤣

Just came back from the future

@GrahamSmyth Surprised it took that long 🤣

Goal Man City. 0-1 #lufc

@GrahamSmyth 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@GrahamSmyth Long shot i know so dont shoot me 🤣but if we can get Klopp in then sack Farke but Rodgers in my opinion is not the answer we all knew it was gonna be difficult this season its why most teams are coming straight back down its ridiculous now the money been spent to stay up

FT Nottingham Forest 3-1 Leeds United Desperately poor. #lufc
