Leeds United 1-0 Watford Fc - 02/10/2021

It's all those jellied eels I'd expect.

Now known as 'TBWWTGTS'. The Bloke Who Wants To Go To Spain.

 

Cathcart is Crackin' up, like a worn out shoe. Ain't wet, but the opposition's getting through.

 

Do you Love the sound of breaking glass ?

 

If it is 0-0 after 60 mins I fancy us to nick it but I cant see us keeping a clean sheet at the moment. Taking a point home would be a good result.

 

Edited for you.

 

Clutching at straws, but we have a good record as a newly promoted team in the Prem against teams that finished 9th in the league the previous season, including when we were crap:

Middlesbrough 1-1
West Ham 0-1
Stoke 0-2

If Leeds are having second season syndrome (as did West Ham when we beat them) we need to take advantage, especially as Bamford is out. A bold prediction (as we have to keep a clean sheet at some point):

Leeds 0-2 Watford (Dennis, Sarr)

 

I'd rip your arm off for a point, I think Leeds will take us to the cleaners.

 

Are there any decent away boozers? Where are Watford fans drinking in Leeds?
Spoke to my mate who is a Leeds fan and he said away fans usually drink around the city centre.

 

The new Stevie Palmer, except not as legendary, not as well-educated, and not as good at cricket!

 

There's only 2 away fixtures I guarantee we'll get maximum points from every season and that's Norwich and Leeds. Big win.

 

And also, unlike Steve Palmer, he doesn't have his own world-class song (and probably never will)

 

On an unrelated note, Arsenal away now sold out.

 

That's a shame, I was going to that with my daughter but was waiting to see if she could come along. Bet we haven't sold out for Leeds!

 

Watching those highlights of last time we played Leeds away is like some kind of lament - for both the interplay between the Otter and Deeney, and more fundamentally for the player that Troy was - his first goal in that game utterly archetypal, when he was strong but could actually move, and so used it to any effect. Wonderful to see but such a shame that went so long ago, now.

And that was the last game we won from two goals down in 90 minutes having been behind at half time (at West Ham we got it to 2-2 after being 2-0 behind).

 

Take an umbrella or three.

It's gon' rain

 

Almost, I think he predicted draws v Narrch & Toon.

 

Would anyone else be very happy with a win? I know I would.

 

I, too, would be happy with a win.

 

Good show.

 

Having thought deeply about this I would prefer a win to a draw. I woudnt be happy with a loss though.

The trouble is I have an inkling the Leeds players would also like a win.

It is within this tension that the paradox lies.
If Watford wins then Leeds cannot win, interestingly the converse of this also applies, such that if Leeds win then Watford cant win.
The natural conclusion of this posited scenario is that there can indeed be no "Win-Win"situation.

After extensive research and deep contemplation, I have come up with a mathematical formula that dissects this fascinating paradox whereby if

W= Watford
L = Leeds
w = win
l = loss

Then the following must be true

If Ww then it must be true that Ll.

Conversely if Wl then it must also be true that Lw

There is the third option of a draw although my post grads havent finished doing the math on this quite yet, so please bear with me.

 

If we win then we need to wear it for every away game, lose and we need to burn it and stick with the red.

 

I have a good feeling about this one.

Leeds United 1-3 Watford

King to score first and last.

Other people to score the other goals.

 

your body count Mr Gold?

 

Oh dear.

Please see the Chumlax post on the 'TD - Talisman thread'.

 

I can only draw attention to what is, I suppose, my strapline:
"In football everything is complicated by the presence of the opposite team".
Originally uttered by a philosopher, no less, ( although a French one, mind). So it must be true. Although what constitutes truth is frequently and often idiotically called into question these days, especially by French philosophers.

 

I could be persuaded.

 

Come on Watford.

 

Do you know, I think you may be on to something?

 

Copious alcohol is not your friend.

 

Fixed

 

I reckon we lose 3-0 or it’ll be a 4-3 thriller that the likes of MOTD cream their pants over
