Well done to your lot Camps. You won’t change my opinion that we were the better team over the 2 legs but hope you stuff Villa in the final

Cheers, it will be a tough one, I've watched most teams and Villa are up there,and it's no coincidence their surge of form coincides with the return of Jack Grealish, Derby have got to keep him quiet!! No doubt the media will be making it Lampard v Terry final !! ....I agree Leeds were the better team the first leg, but yesterday,Derby I thought were quicker on the ball and seemed to want it more, and Leeds didn't help themselves (Bamford) diving about that would have made Tom Daly jealous. Anyway good luck for next season..cheers.

Good luck to Derby but I think they will find it tough against Villa,the Championships form team.
Villa are managed by Dean Smith who has done very well at his 3 clubs so far....Walsall,Brentford and Villa.
But as a one off game you never know....

IS IT SAFE OUT THERE ?????????

DM emerging from the darkened padded loom has been hidding away in since the Plymouth game ..

The Iron GO DOON but in new manager Hurst i think we have a half decent chance of a swift return .. thats if Chairman Swann has the doe to back up his words.

Kudos to Swann he did pay for the away travel expenses (coach not inc booze 555) on several occasions during last season and he is still at war with the local council on the ground redevelopment and winning as he just got a lump of money back from them over the fees paid in application and unexplained delay in the councils decision which he put directly back into the player fund.

BYE BYE JOSH MORRIS .. great player but bad attitude by all accounts sure to be snapped up after turning down a new contract ..and bound to come back n bite us on the botty in the future as did Billy Sharp amongst many others ..

L2 next season .. looking forward to it and of course the local derby with the codheads .. also former Iron gaffa Graham Alexander returning in charge of Salford City .. great manager should not have been sacked by Swann and hence forth scunny not going thru the mill with Daws , SFAMcall n Dawson and staying in L1 .

Well done to Derby .. camps will be dreaming the dream ..good luck to them against Villa .

LEEDS AFTER ALL THE WIND n PISS SORRY GUYS WASNT TO BE .. next year ..MAYBE

Tranmere were promoted for the second season in succession as Wembley once again proved a happy hunting ground for the boys from Birkenhead.

Truly excellent. At this rate of ascendancy, they'll soon be pipping LUFC at the EPL promotion post.

Back in the UK for Leeds appearance in the Play off final tomorrow (grrrr!). Sky Sports and others are reporting that the owners of PSG are interested in the Mighty Whites.

Seems to be going down well on the LUFC forums but, personally, I would hate us to be transformed into another MCFC. The highs of football can only be relished when you suffer the lows.

Get In Sunderland "Eh Statts....555 !! 1-0 After 4 Minutes .....

Wonder how much the Charlton keeper put on Blunderland to go up at the start of the season

Blunderland given a lead and still manage to throw it away

Things they will do to stay in the checkertrade trophy and get to play the mighty Toon U23's

Yes, I read earlier that the Qatari's have expressed an interest. I agree that having a bottomless pit of cash to buy the best and win stuff although yielding instant success, always leaves one with reservations. But that's what commercialization and global TV rights have brought to the beautiful game. If they do buy them and they do go up, then they will be labeled as the club that bought their way in, like RB Leipzig in the Bundesthingmie.

With Bielsa allegedly chasing significant spending ahead of next season as a pre-condition to staying, maybe this is the way forward. In that regard, it would be interesting to know who initiated any overtures with the Qatari's.

Well, it's a wrap for this season. Congratulations to Aston Villa winning the play off final.
At least next season Leeds can look forward to taking 6 points from Derby County, again.
Roll on August.

Eh By Gum, Mr Ad-hoc have you been on the liquid Hovis again or stargazing with your new binoculars!! Joking aside I thought Villa were stronger and showed their experience, although Derby rattled them the second half..We need a few new players now with the loan players going back to their parent clubs..(lend Mr Lampard your binoculars ) Look forward to next season .. cheers

LEEDS 'DELIGHTED' TO KEEP BIELSA

Some more on the news that Marcelo Bielsa will remain in charge of Leeds next season...

"Leeds United are delighted to confirm that chairman Andrea Radrizzani has officially exercised the option to extend Marcelo Bielsa's contract for a second season," a club statement said.

"Marcelo has met with the board of directors on a number of occasions over the past few days and has confirmed his intention to continue on in his role of head coach.

"Bielsa penned a two-year deal with the Whites in June 2018 with the club maintaining the right to extend or terminate the deal at the end of year one."

Great news for the rest of the Championship teams .......... renowned for his Jose esque second season meltdowns (didn't realise the new season started 6 weeks ago though )

"Phil Neville has been using sauna sessions to prepare his England Women side for the heat during the World Cup in France".

Come on guys ... be honest ... If you managed a womens team you'd have them in the sauna if you could get away with it

Think's 'a lot of female cricketers are gays' Do I want to be in a sauna with a stack of gay gals'? This thread could go anywhere.

A nice little ditty to end the season with.

Some very sad news from the lower divisions....
Leyton Orient manager,Justin Edinburgh,has died aged 49 just a few days after suffering a heart attack.
Only a few weeks ago he steered Orient out of the Conference as champions,back into the Football League and to the FA Trophy final at Wembley.
RIP

Curiously, my current covert operation sees me in Perth for next Wednesday. Apparently, there's some semi-famous English football teams playing that night and the best tickets are about £100 with the nosebleeds around £73.

I reckon it could be a grand night out, no?
