Perfect.. 3 viktige poeng..Playoff..dette klarer Leeds. Sykt for en deilig følelese dette er..

Ha en go kveld gutter og jenter...

Virker som ingen ting stopper oss nå.

Selv om poyet - som er vistnok er spillernes beste venn - er på vei tilbake til the smog, og ikke for lov til å vise seg på elland road - leverer vi årsbeste - offensivt.

I dag fikk vi 3 mål fra våre unge og lovende midtbanespillere....(25/26 er ingen alder). Pluss et mål fra vår lovende spiss på 23

Norman Hunter innrømmer at han har tatt feil når de gjelder Heath (25) (hans "#man of the match"#)....Og rui spiller sin første dårlige kamp i årets sesong. Poenget er at vi har et lag - ikke bare noen støttespillere.

Er allerde nervøs for carlilse away til lørdag, men satser på at grumpy dwarf wise tar oss vel hjem med 3 poeng.

Takk for at en gammel supporter for lov til å oppleve dette ! 11 2 0. Viste vi skulle komme tilbake - aber nicht so schnell. Danke hr wise

Poyet blir. Sevillas trener har tatt over Spurs i flg VG. Skål. Jeg fikk plutselig lyst på en sommerdrink, nemlig gin/tonic. Og man skal gjøre som man lyster i disse dager Herregud så godt med litt(mye) medgang igjen. Jeg hadde nesten glemt hvordan det føltes. Og maken til denne sesongen får vi vel ikke oppleve ...............før til neste år i CCC. 

[Eriksen55]

[Svend Anders]

En på facebook forteller om Milwall-fansen idag:

Millwall fans...incredible behaviour. At 4-0 they all charged towards the South Stand, what an amazing sight. None of them wore shirts, pure black and burberry. All the windows on the buses from the train station were smashed or broken and bottles were being chucked. There were about 1500 police outside, all for 800 Cockernees.

It's your loss Gus...
United sparkle as Poyet departs
Leeds United 4 - 2 Millwall

Gustavo Poyet has gone, but Leeds United's magic will not be stolen so easily.
The Uruguayan was missing from Elland Road yesterday, caught in no-man's land between the assistant manager's job at Leeds and the same role at Tottenham Hotspur, but the sense of satisfaction created by United's crushing of Millwall cannot have gone failed to reach their outgoing coach.
Poyet will almost certainly take up his offer from Spurs next week after news of their interest surfaced on Thursday, but any suggestion that the loss of Dennis Wise's right-hand man might pull Leeds of the rails were instantly dismissed by the club's most satisfying win of the season.
If Wise had asked his players to demonstrate exactly what Poyet was leaving behind, the job was done by a performance which cut Millwall to shreds in the second half at Elland Road. Poyet's departure may have weakened United's foundations slightly, but Wise had no desire for his players to show it.
Leeds carried on regardless, with both their immediate duties and their longer-term ambitions. United, without Poyet, are still unbeaten; they are also unquestionably the promotion contenders they were before the call from White Hart Lane turned his head. Yesterday's victory merely underlined the gulf in momentum and drive between Leeds and so many other teams in League One.
David Prutton opened the scoring with a beautiful finish before the interval, and three goals in the space of six minutes in the second half â€" including two from the right-foot of Jonathan Douglas â€" left Millwall trailing by four with only an hour gone.
Wise has come to understand the unpredictable nature of his job at Elland Road, but if Poyet's impending departure had caught him by surprise, he was no more prepared for the loss of Radostin Kishishev to a muscle strain during the Leeds' final training session before yesterday's game.
Ian Westlake was drafted into a midfield which was also missing impromptu assistant manager Alan Thompson and Andrew Hughes, making his first start in a league match for two-and-a-half months. The scenario was problematic on several fronts, and the atmosphere was threatened by the sight of the ball in United's net in the third minute.
The effort â€" finished off by Will Hoskins after an interchange with Gary Alexander â€" was disallowed by an offside flag, but the chance suggested that Millwall's performance might prove more polished than dismal results before yesterday's game.
Millwall provided suitable competition for the first-half hour. Ten minutes after Hoskins' strike, United goalkeeper Casper Ankergren was scrambling backwards to usher a lob from Danny Senda safely beyond his post.
Leeds, however, looked dangerous whenever Millwall allowed Wise's players into the depths of their half.
Jermaine Beckford pulled a left-foot shot wide of Lenny Pidgeley's goal in the 10th minute after anticipating the direction of Tresor Kandol's flicked header, and a lack of direction also prevented Kandol from opening the scoring in the 25th minute.
The striker was waiting to receive a cross from Frazer Richardson after the full-back and Prutton cut a hole through Millwall's defence and swarmed down the right wing, but Kandol's powerful header left Pidgeley untroubled. If was a momentary reprieve for Millwall's keeper, who was beaten 10 minutes later.
Pidgeley was put under threat by a magical piece of skill from Sebastien Carole, who left Senda standing which a quick shift of his feet on the left touchline. Carole's cross was scuffed clear by the head of Shaw, but Prutton controlled the loose ball and lashed a screaming shot into the top corner.
United have lacked a ruthless streak this season, but Wise's players reacted to Prutton's goal by seeking Millwall's jugular.
Prutton sliced a second shot wide from outside the box, and Douglas' measured volley brought a two-hand block from Pidgeley at the base of his right-hand post. Having looked so comfortable on such a difficult stage, the visitors were suddenly hanging on in the final minutes before half-time.
Within eight minutes of the start of the second half, Shaw's players were hit by the most demoralising of goals.
Pidgeley drove a clearance against the back of Kandol under no pressure, and when the loose ball bounced to the feet of Beckford 10 yards outside the box, the unmarked striker had the easy task of out-running Pidgeley and slipping a low shot into an empty net.
Two minutes later, Douglas turned inside the box and hooked a weak shot beyond Pidgeley, and when the same player drove home a free-kick from the edge of the box seconds later, Leeds were sitting on a 4-0 lead and Millwall were ready to implode.
The visitors shut United out for the closing half-hour, reducing the lead with Hoskins' finish from 10 yards after Jay Simpson's run down pulled Wise's defenders out of position.
An opportunist header from Ahmet Brkovic, which dipped over Ankergren and in at the keeper's far post, reduced United's advantage further with 14 minutes remaining.
A stressful finish was not what Wise or United deserved, and yesterday's win settled the waters. That Poyet was missing from the touchline did not seem to worry the crowd, who along with Leeds made it clear that the sense of loss should be his.

Leeds take it easy
Leeds 4 Millwall 2

Gus Poyet may be leaving - the Uruguyan is expected to accept the post of assistant to Juande Ramos at Spurs tomorrow - but Leeds march on. Dennis Wise cut an isolated figure without his long-standing side-kick, but the United boss celebrated a year in charge by overseeing his team’s 11th win in 13 games; incredibly, given the 15-point handicap under which they began the season, it took them into a playoff position.
Yet Millwall almost punctured the bubble of anniversary good-will within five minutes of the start. Will Hoskins and Gary Alexander exchanged passes in the penalty area before Hoskins lifted the ball over Casper Ankergren and into the United net, only to see the linesman flagging for offside.
Jamie O’Hara headed Ahmet Brkovic’s cross over the bar, and Brkovic himself saw a deflected shot spin wide of the post as the visitors, initially, looked the more dangerous team.
As the half drew on, however, Leeds began to find an attacking rhythm of their own. Jermaine Beckford twice shot wide, Seb Carole fired straight at Millwall keeper Lenny Pidgeley and Tresor Kandol headed past a post.
Shortly before the break they went ahead. Carole beat Danny Senda down the left and though his cross was half-cleared, the ball arrived at the feet of David Prutton, who curled a right-footed shot beyond Pidgeley.
Hoskins almost embarrassed Ankergren at his near post shortly after the restart, but it was Pidgeley who was the goalkeeper left blushing when his attempted clearance thumped against Beckford. The forward collected the rebound and slid the ball into an empty net.
Jonathan Douglas, allowed time to turn and shoot inside the area, made the game safe with a third; two minutes later, he drove a free kick through a feeble wall to make it four.
Humiliation beckoned for Millwall, but Leeds perceptibly relaxed. Hoskins pinched one back with a deflected shot, Brkovic another with a header to start the nerves jangling, but Leeds tightened up again and should have scored at least one more before the whistle.
Wise chose not to appear for the postmatch press conference, leaving his “acting” assistant Alan Thompson to field the questions about Poyet. He did his job solidly, revealing Poyet had texted all the players and staff to wish them luck before the game.
“I think the boys were all a bit flat and down yesterday when Dennis said Gus was possibly going,” said Thompson. “He’s been a big part of what’s happening here and he’ll be missed.
“But in the end it’s about what goes on over the white line and we have good players here.”
For Millwall, assistant manager Colin West said: “I thought the players battled well after the mad 10 minutes at the start of the second half.”
There is a sense of inevitability about Leeds’s rise now. Up by Easter, if not before.

Full time report: Leeds 4 Millwall 2
Leeds United win again

DENNIS WISE kicked off his second year in charge of Leeds United just as he finished the first - with a win.
Goals from David Prutton, Jermaine Beckford and a double by Jonathan Douglas ensured Elland Road's first 30,000 plus crowd were able to celebrate another three points in the quest for promotion.
Leeds, who were missing new loan signing Radostin Kishishev due to a muscle strain picked up in training on Friday, tore Millwall apart with a fine display of attacking football that brought three goals in just six minutes early in the second half.
It all proved too much for the 800 or so visiting fans who, after having the windows smashed on the buses transporting them to Elland Road before kick-off, launched several missiles and tried to break through police lines after Douglas had made it 4-0.
With Gus Poyet told to stay away ahead of his expected appointment as assistant manager at Tottenham Hotspur, the home side actually started slowly but soon got into their stride.
Perhaps the best chance fell to Tresor Kandol on 25 minutes after an excellent one-two on the right between Frazer Richardson and David Prutton but the United striker headed wide.
Seb Carole also tested goalkeeper Lenny Pidgeley with a 20-yard shot, while Jermaine Beckford twice shot just wide after using his strength and pace to create openings.
It was a fine piece of skill from Carole that led to the opening goal in the 36th minute when he beat Danny Senda on the left before hitting a first time shot that Richard Shaw could only head to David Prutton on the edge of the area.
The former Nottingham Forest midfielder then took a touch to control the ball before lashing an unstoppable shot past Pidgeley.
An almighty blunder by the Millwall goalkepeer then led to the home side doubling their lead with Pidgeley's attempted clearance being charged down by Kandol.
The ball rebounded across the area and Beckford won the race to the ball ahead of the hapless Lions stopper to nick the ball past his dive before rolling it into the empty net.
Douglas added a third with a deft turn and shot on 57 minutes before adding a fourth with a fiercely drilled free-kick from the edge of the area to the delight of the vast majority in a 30,319 crowd.
Fomer Rotherham United striker Will Hoskins and Ahmet Brkovic, the latter a wonderful flicked header, did manage to put a positive polish on the afternoon for the visitors with goals that trebled their tally on the road this season but they were never going to be any more than a consolation.

Håper ikkje dette bråket før og etter kampen igår for følger for Leeds United.
Vi slapp såvidt med skrekken når FA/FL ikkje straffa oss for storming av bana/ipswichfansen i vår.
Faen så irriterande at ikkje folk kan oppføre seg!

We are the brave lions!, inget lag kan stoppa oss

[berlin]

skjønner ikke hvorfor flere begynner å snakke om 'brave lions' når det gjelder Leeds.
Det har aldri blitt brukt om Leeds før, og gir dessuten assosiasjoner til Chelsea, Millwall m.fl

jeg blir nesten støtt av det.

Du har et poeng. Det virker rett og slett litt misforstått og historieløst og bruke dette begrepet om våre gutter.
