Are we all still around or has the forum finally died a death. I guess if there is no response then that answers the question!

Norman Hunter, Kenny Dalglish in hospital having tested positive for COVID 19 and Jimmy Greaves who was taken in with suspected stroke. All legends and I hope they pull though.

Dangerous to say I know, but given our results over the last few weeks, somehow we are still 2nd in the table when our form is more like relegation fodder. Forgetting about West Brom, the others get close but don't as yet seem able to pass us, even the chavs from South East London done us a bit...

Just listened to the post match chat ( always painful through an interpreter), seems intent on taking full responsibility for the performance basically stating that the team put in a shift and he could not fault them, not even that clown between the posts! and it falls on his shoulders. He...

I think that the next 10 days are the most important in the clubs recent history. Unless we solve the striker issue, on current form we will be lucky to make the playoffs. The players are not performing that badly, but to continually waste scoring opportunities like we do is eventually going to...

Everything in life has a natural end cycle so just wondering if the Vital Leeds Forum has found its end? No so long ago the site would be buzzing with updates, analysis, comments (good and bad), fans views on players, expectations on season ahead etc etc, but now there is very little traffic. Is...

I've lost count of the number of threads I've started with this title, however this time its not necessarily to complain. Ok, he does still seem to have an issue with scoring goals from open play but his all round contribution to the team seems invaluable. The layoff to Harrison was nothing...

I try to be as positive as I can about Bambi, but its getting more difficult as each game passes by. He has a great ability to hold the ball and bring other players into the game, however like many a forward before him, he is completely crap at putting the ball into the net which is his main...

Red card rescinded. Fat lot of fkg use that is now!.

Back in the bad old days, it was always funny to read Erni's various run ins with local Barnsley supporters either on the golf course or elsewhere and recalling the levels of abuse and piss taking. I only hope he has met a supporter upstairs and dishing it out big time.

From a football fans perspective, there has to be something wrong when a club who has been in business for over 100 years is expelled from the football league and potentially another one in Bolton fast approaching. There should be some form of safety net fund provided. I feel really sorry for...

Playing like a man possessed at the moment. Fantastic energy levels, obviously taking lessons from the duracell bunny. I know Stoke are poor but some of the passing was great to watch. If Real or Barca had scored the first goal, pundits would still be talking about it. My mate reckons that Ben...

Be interested to hear views from those who have seen the series. For those unaware, its a documentary narrated by Russell Crowe on our first campaign under Bielsa, spread over 6 episodes. Its on Amazon Prime, if you haven't got it you can get a months free trial which should give ample time to...

Thought we played ok today without looking too dangerous. It seems if there is a different way of playing at home versus away. Last week we were in Bristols face every ball and moved the ball a lot quicker, today it seemed a little bit pondorus and low key. We seem to suffer when the Spanish...

According to SSN has passed medical at Anderlecht and agreed 3 year deal. The next 24/48 hours should be interesting! Only hope we dont panic buy and pay a huge fee for a donkey on the premise that we appear desperate.

Well, here we go again. This season I will settle for nothing less than promotion via the automatic route. I am not overly bothered about the apparent lack of signings, I think we will see the emergence of some of the young starlets from the u23's. The only issues I see at the moment is the...

Well that was 2 hours of my life that I will not get back. I can only hope that jet lag was affecting Cooper and some of the players because if that was an indication of things to come, then we really are in the shit. Bamford, well I know there are vital members out there who still think we...

Mate of mine who has a good source in Yorkshire has just said that Bielsa has left Leeds! Anyone confirm or deny?

You would have thought that as we approach the most important 2 games of our season that I would be up and ready for it, but at the moment its quite the opposite. Whether that's a hangover from the fact that we blew our automatic promotion chances or an impending doomed feeling about our chances...
