FT: Leeds 0 - 1 Southampton. Play off final

[AdrianAlston]

Only since then?

Particularly since then, I'm not old enough (just) to remember dirty Leeds of the early 70's. My first memories are of Brian Flynn and Tony Currie (what a player) in centre midfield. They were also rans by then

So that Billy Bremner winner in the FA Cup in January 1964 doesn’t rankle with you? Hell of a goal mind, little ginger twat!!!

us jacks wouldn't see a penny of that 5 million quid and our ex manager who we still love for obvious reasons finally gets a job that he deserves after our owners taking the piss. Anything that embarrasses our greedy useless yank owners the better. A good day all round.

Not really, if they fail to get that 5 Million bonus it will come from other player sales, they need their yearly bonus, don't they?


The only good thing to come out of it, Leeds are a much stronger team next season than Southampton would have been.

probably makes it more likely that Drameh will be offered another contract there?

Interesting early odds on the Premier League relegation market for 2024/25:

1/2 - Leicester City
8/11 - Ipswich Town
11/8 - Southampton

So, as things stand, the bookies seem to believe that Southampton under Russell Martin will be far better equipped to deal with the Premier League than either Leicester or Ipswich.

Leicester and Ipswich Managers linked with new jobs though?

Otherwise i'd have Southampton favourites to go down.

The Leicester odds must be down to the likelihood of them losing their manager. I find that a surprise.

I also feel, though I have no stats to back this up, that teams who are comfortable on the ball and can pass it well are more likely to stay up and do well in the PL.

And Leicesters is linked with Chelsea and others.

I think Leicesters odds are because theres a chance of a points deduction.

Ah, that makes more sense. As regards the managers, Leicester are likely to get someone decent in and McKenna’s apparently staying at Ipswich.

If Leicester and Ipswich keep the Managers, I think at least one of them will stay up, although I thought Burnley would stay last year.

So did the bookies. Burnley were 3/1 to be relegated back in August, and it was a handsome 14/1 against all three promoted clubs getting relegated.

Sheffield United were 4/1 to finish bottom, while Luton were 9/2 to finish highest of the three promoted sides.

The bookies are all tossers
