@AyubPatel123 @marshyleeds Just can’t understand why we didn’t go at them from the outset. That was our best chance with all the problems they’ve been having. Anyway now back to the real stuff.

@steve14b @marshyleeds I was up in the hospitality stands & had a perfect view of Aaronson predictably fluffing his lines. Set the tone for a dire 1st half. Agree Stach was head & shoulders above everyone in a Leeds shirt but after Sanchez kept his thunderbolt out I knew our Wembley hoodoo ain't ending

Sunday was disappointing, and it would have been incredible to get there, but the cup was always a bonus and doesn't detract from the main task: Survival. Once that's done, the task for #LUFC will be to add more quality to the squad and ensure days like Sunday become more regular

@AyubPatel123 @marshyleeds I had a front row seat at Wembley and we never turned up in the first half except for the Aaronson effort. The team gave our wonderful fans nothing to cheer about. Stach made a difference in the second half. Chelsea were there for the taking and will not be so low again.

@marshyleeds This attitude of somehow being grateful we got to the semi's & treating is a day out is infuriating. Yes survival in the EPL is essential but we've been relegated & won promotion again. It may be another 50 years before we have a chance of a wembley cup final. #Lufc

@mou19645 @GrahamSmyth Thought we would go at them and it was terribly disappointing. Also it prevented our wonderful supporters from raising the roof as there was nothing to cheer. Totally allowed Chelsea to rediscover their confidence.

You’re not a true Leeds fan if you’re not still worried about that 0.21% chance of relegation and us being the first team with 40 points to get relegated

Leeds should have beaten Bournemouth at Elland Road and settled for a point thanks to a late goal. Tonight feels poetic. #lufc

What team are you picking on Weds? No mistake, it’s a tricky game for us vs a side on their longest ever unbeaten PL run and, with Sunday in mind, there has to be a temptation to play a weakened team? Longstaff, Gnonto (good off bench yesterday) Bournauw, Nmecha surely come in

My Dad died at Hillsborough, he loved watching the reds, a nice man. He drove a taxi, a lorry, & was a salesman. A Dad of 2. A good Dad, took me the match. They took my Dad from me. They took me too. I hate April. I hate what it’s done to me. I miss you Dad. #lfc #ynwa #JFT97

@ajm1991_ @AmyTalksLeeds Whether anyone agrees with it or not is irrelevant. The rule is clearly stated. It’s illogical when you can almost rip someone’s shirt off but there it is.

FA Cup Quarter Final. Leeds United 2 v Tottenham Hotspur 1. Gary Sprake watches the ball go wide of his goal as Jack Charlton covers on the goal line. 18th March 1972. Floodlights look fantastic behind the Lowfields.

@henrywinter @lufctrust Totally agree. VAR officials still get things wrong so what’s the point. Goal line technology yes.

Premier League fans deliver damning verdict on VAR. 75% of 7,946 fans polled by the Football Supporters’ Association “didn’t support the use of VAR”. Too long, too forensic, too much of a joy killer, fans say. Findings shared with Premier League and PGMO. 92% of fans surveyed “agreed” that “VAR has removed the spontaneous joy of goal celebrations” (82% of them “strongly agreed”). 85% of match-going fans “strongly disagreed” with the notion that “VAR makes watching football more enjoyable”. And 83% of those watching on TV. 85% of match-going fans “strongly disagreed” that “VAR decisions are generally resolved in a reasonable amount of time”. Echoed by 83% of those watching on TV. Only 18% agreed that “VAR has improved the overall accuracy of refereeing decisions”. 72% are “concerned about the expansion of VAR beyond its current remit”. 79% “strongly disagreed” with the suggestion “that the match-going experience is better with VAR”. 67% “strongly agreed” that they preferred “watching games that are played without VAR to games with VAR”. 84% “strongly support” goal-line technology. 34% “strongly opposed” to the idea of a challenge system (two per game per team). “These findings back up the FSA's previous survey in 2021, where fans expressed misgivings about the introduction of VAR,” says Thomas Concannon, @WeAreTheFSAPremier League network manager. “The vast majority are reporting the same concerns five years on - the loss of spontaneity when celebrating goals, and an overall worsening of the match-going experience. We have shared the survey results with the Premier League and PGMO, and look forward to discussing its findings with them.” Fans surveyed of all PL clubs and all ages (Under-18 to 65+).

My wife says this never happened. Does anyone else remember when milk came in glass bottles and the milkman would deliver it to your doorstep before sunrise? You’d leave the empties out for him to pick up!
