Don't worry ole' techa'. Hun er sannsynligvis  flinkere til å regne enn til å danse.

I en stor artikkel som for det meste handlet om vår    redningsmann  fant jeg denne lille setningen helt til slutt

Also at the RMC meeting, Brian McDermott confirmed Luciano Becchio wanted to return to Elland Road earlier this year, but was prevented from doing so by Chris Hughton.

Brian Deane klarte å berge plassen med Særp 08. Artikkelen inneholder også noe om våre tilskuertall. Vi ligger milevis foran Forest når det gjelder støtte på bortebane og har høyest snitt på kamper generelt med drøyt 25.000.

Husker fortsatt EM-08-kvaliken da han scoret for moro skyld. I gruppe med bl.a. Spania, Sverige og Danmark scoret han 13 mål på 11 kamper, noe som fortsatt er EM-kvalik-rekord. Holdt på å sende Nord-Irland til EM på egenhånd den gang......

En absolute " cracker" av et mål fra Fabian Delph på St Marys!  

..og et trøstemål fra Bradley J på Anfield. Pent hodestøt....


Og Manure taper visst hjemme!

Richard Cresswell legger også opp...

 
Former Leeds United strikers David Healy and Richard Cresswell have both announced their retirements from football this week.

34-year-old Healy has been without a club since the summer following his release by Bury.

Healy spent two-and-a-half years at Leeds between 2004 and 2007 scoring 31 goals in 121 appearances.

36-year-old Cresswell has been forced to retire due to eye and knee injuries just six months after re-joining his hometown club York City, eighteen years after starting his career at Bootham Crescent.

Creswell spent two-years at Elland Road, scoring 11 goals in 44 appearances and he was the last player to sign for Leeds for a seven-figure sum until Luke Murphy joined the club this summer.

Middlesbrough full-back Frazer Richardson has joined Ipswich on loan until the end of the season. Frazier kommer til ER for andre gang denne sesongen. Han var positiv i årene etter nedrykket 2004, kaptein også. Scoret vel mot Norwich (?) i vår første ch.ship kamp da vi vant 1-0  aug 2004. Scoret også mot Preston i play off og sikret finale.

Sky Bet Championship: Gary Kelly wants the Leeds United job



Gary Kelly thinks that he should be given the Leeds United manager's job and says that he is the man to lead the club to a play-off position.

On a dramatic Friday at Elland Road, manager Brian McDermott was sacked after only nine months in charge of the Sky Bet Championship club.

The Yorkshire outfit are in the midst of a takeover thought to be headed by Italian Massimo Cellino.

The news of McDermott's departure sparked some dramatic scenes outside the stadium, with fans reportedly attempting to block Cellino from leaving the ground.

But, former Republic of Ireland defender Kelly is happy to help and thinks that he is the man to lead the club forward.

Kelly said: "The club needs someone who has the club, fans and city at heart.

"It deserves someone with that passion and desire to succeed to get back to being one of the biggest clubs in the country, exactly where the the fans, club and city belong.

"This season, looking at the current predicament, I am more than confident I can take them to the play-offs, given the right backing and support.

"I believe I have all the credentials to do this and more."

Leeds face Huddersfield Town at Elland Road on Saturday.

Sakser saken under fra EX-player/-manager news Part III (eller 3):

Og legger til at nå er vår tidligere styreformann Bill Fortherby i Osset Town. Bill var en merkelig mann for oss. Jeg husker ham best da han satt på pengesekken og snørte igjen. Min oppfatning av den godeste Bill var at han var ganske så "clueless", men som jeg vet nå så er det mange andre som kan stille i samme kategori. Hans etterfølger Ridsdale åpnet sekken igjen, men siden har sekkern vært snørt igjen. 



Evo-Stik Northern Premier League First Division North club Ossett Town AFC are have announced the appointment of former .....
.....Leeds United chairman Bill Fotherby as director of football.

http://nonleague.pitchero.com/news/ex-leeds-chairman-joins-ossett-town-30313/

f**k off Bill....!


Fotherby now dreaming of return to Elland Road



Since taking on the role of football missionary in a town steeped in rugby union, Bill Fotherby estimates he has spent somewhere in the region of £400,000.
To many, such an outlay would be considered borderline madness. To a self-confessed football addict, however, it is money well spent. What price, the flamboyant chairman of Harrogate Town suggests, can be put on happiness?
By Saturday, such an investment could even be considered to be cheap at twice the price if, as Fotherby is fervently hoping, his club earn a place in the FA Cup first round proper by beating neighbours Harrogate Railway and then land Leeds United in the tea-time draw.
Not only would this be a welcome money-spinner for the Conference North leaders, it would also hand the Town chairman a long overdue return to a club where he spent 15 years as a member of the board.
He explained: "This tie is wonderful news for Harrogate football because it means one of us will be in the first round proper. Of course, we hope that team is us.
"Football is in the blood and I love it so I have been counting the days ever since the draw was made. It is the dream draw for Harrogate football."When I first came here, one thing I tried to do was make football more high profile because this has always been a rugby town.
"Can you imagine the level of interest if we could beat Railway and then draw Leeds? It would be the biggest ever thing to happen to sport in this town."
Harrogate probably could not have a better promoter of football than Fotherby who, during his time at Elland Road, forged a formidable reputation for both courting publicity and being a tough negotiator.
It was Fotherby who earned backpage headlines around the world in the Eighties after announcing his attention to sign Maradona, though just how keen the Argentinian fresh from a World Cup win was on a move to the Second Division will forever remain a mystery.
There was also much talk of Europe's biggest names being "on the verge" of moving to Elland Road as Fotherby jetted round the continent only for talks to stall at the last minute.
What is not in doubt, however, is that Leeds blossomed from also-rans to league title winners thanks, in no small part, to his now legendary business acumen and negotiating skills.
Gordon Strachan, for instance, once revealed how Fotherby was such a good salesman that during talks over a new contract the Scot ended up leaving the meeting owing the club money after being persuaded to buy three season tickets for his family. Fotherby recalls: "Those were great days but I get the same thrill from the game now as I did back then.
"People asked me when I came to Harrogate 'why do you bother, Bill?' and it has probably cost me somewhere in the region of £400,000.
"But football is in my blood and I love it. It is an addiction. When I came here, I said 'I have a dream – I have been to the top of the mountain and seen it from there, now I want to see it from the other angle'.
"We have had five excellent seasons and the current run is unbelievable. To be top of the league and five points ahead of a club such as Kettering who have gates of 2,000 and last week were able to bid £20,000 for a striker, is wonderful.
"We are breaking all kinds of records and it makes me very proud to know Harrogate Town are one of only a handful of clubs in the whole country who are still unbeaten."
After an amazing start that has yielded 35 points from the opening 13 games, promotion to top flight of non-League football is a very real target for Neil Aspin's side.
The priority this weekend, however, is progressing to the first round proper of the FA Cup for only the third time in the club's history by beating their neighbours, who reached the first round in 2002, at Station View.
Fotherby said: "Of course, it is the dream of every team in the fourth qualifying round to get through and then draw Leeds. We are no different.
"I know Ken Bates from the old days when he was at Oldham and am really pleased to see things going so well.
"I have not been back since being forced out (in 1997) as chairman but I watch Leeds whenever they are on television. It was awful to watch everything we had built up just slip away a few years ago due to rank, bad management.
"When I was there, we kept hold of the purse strings – it is the only way to do it – but they lost sight of that. Incompetence was what brought Leeds down but it is great to see them bouncing back.
"Now, they are getting gates of 30,000 and it would be amazing if, in a couple of weeks' time, Harrogate Town were the team walking out in front of a crowd like that for an FA Cup tie."
