filbertway Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 Leeds did absolutely nothing wrong there, mad that they gave the goal away.

ScouseFox Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 belter from the leeds, actually did a very sporting thing for no real reason but also managed to start the mother of all scraps.

Wymsey Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 Leeds on the slide, at the most important stage of the season, again. At least they're good comedy value for the rest of the league/neutrals.
Fox92 Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 Just got in from our game and heard what's happened. Watched the uploaded footage. Fair play to Leeds, whoever's idea it was, especially given they're going for promotion.
bovril Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 "The most UNBELIEVABLE scenes in football history?" Er... no.

stripeyfox Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 that was a bit naughty of Leeds though really. Whether he "meant" to do that I don't know. He looks like he slows down and is going to stroke the ball out then changes his mind. Good old fashioned dust up after the goal. Then the best bit; Leeds decide to do the "sporting" thing by allowing Villa to score but Jannsen has other ideas!
MC Prussian Posted 28 April 2019 Author Posted 28 April 2019 So, with one or two matches to go, the playoff picture will highly likely look like this: Leeds - Derby West Brom - Aston Villa Still the Villa to come up for me.

Rather see any of the other three.
Fox92 Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 Part of me wants Derby and part of me doesn't. I do love playing them. Villa or WBA for me. It'll be a great semi final, first, though.

The Bear Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 I hope Leeds or Derby do it. Anyone but Baggies or Villa!

Sorry but no, Villa players are ridiculous for suggesting Leeds should have put the ball out of play. The Leeds player slowed down because several players ran towards him like the Villa player was seriously injured, which he wasn’t. He probably realised that despite the ludicrous body language of the Villa players there was in fact no foul and no head injury, so he rightly played on because it’s a physical sport where far too much time is wasted with players on the floor already. There has never been anything in the rules or a sportsmanship precedent to say kick the ball out. That’s a new thing and not a good one. That match sums up how the game has gone to the dogs because kicking the ball out of play shouldn’t have even been in their mind. It wasn’t a head injury, it wasn’t a bad tackle, the player was fine. And Don Goodman once again made himself look an absolute Pillock for talking about morality in that instance. Then you’ve got some turd getting someone sent off by faking an injury. Frankly, the fans deserve more than having to wait for the football while all this ‘injury’ nonsense goes on for another couple of minutes. Let’s have less diving and less kicking the ball out for everyone who winces. It’s becoming unwatchable. And the idea that footballers can claim that they are so sporting and moral that everybody else should be as righteous as them is laughable. They are nothing but cheats the lot of them, there’s not an honest one out there.

My initial reaction was that I could understand why Villa were so angry about it. He does slow down and it looks like he's going to put it out, but he's looking down the line and plays the forward in. Play to the whistle is what I taught my U8's when I was coaching. Also, they did change the advice a couple of years back I think to allow teams to continue. o Leeds didn't really do anything wrong, apart from the fact the guy looked like he was going to put it out. I hope Leeds go up because their manager is fookin crazy - would be good to see him in the Prem!
TheUltimateWinner Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 Wouldn’t have a problem if Leeds had just carried on playing. But when he faked putting it out it became unsportsmanlike. Fair play to Biesla for giving them a goal back. Bamford deserves a ban though for him faking getting hit in the head.
Langston Posted 29 April 2019 Posted 29 April 2019 Why would anybody want WBA up out of those four, boring as sin.
