Their take on media coverage is particularly amusing.
Through the combination of Suttons weekly village idiot routine on national radio and a publicity junkie faded celebrity owner you’d think that was something they’d want to stay away from. |

I was slightly surprised that it was Goodman, but given that he was speechless as Leeds imploded at QPR last week, I don’t suppose Sky could take the risk on a silent co commentator for a second successive week.
He had nowhere to go with a performance as clinical, comfortable and professional as Town today.
Whilst on the subject of TV coverage I hope Look East have got a decent sporting spectacle like competitive tidliwinks highlights from Diss or something equally compelling lined up for Monday night because they’re sure as hell not going to want to go anywhere near football. |

I was rather hoping that someone with more time on their hands than they know what to do with could put together a montage of hilariously wrong and dismissive Sky quotes that haven’t aged particularly well.
There’s a wealth of material from oxygen thieves like Hinchcliffe and Goodman as well as the Sky commentator that proclaimed that the ‘cream of the Championship rises to the top’ as Leeds finally had a few hours at the top of the table sometime around January. If I recall correctly, it wasn’t even on goal difference, but goals scored. Clearly they were running away with it at that point. |

I’m reasonably inebriated in neighbouring Leicestershire.
Off to the pub for a couple more Aspell’s very shortly. |

Must admit that he never crossed my mind.
All done and finished with; he won’t be here next season.
A shame as he’s a talented player. |

Leeds thought they were in a two horse race in which they eventually managed to finish third.
We bloody deserve this.
Patronised all season by Sky and their appalling pundits, this wonderful group of players and management stuck at it.
A once in a lifetime season to savour. Incredible, inspiring stuff. |

I’d just like to congratulate plucky Leeds who against all odds have kept pace with the juggernaut that is mighty Ipswich Town.
So near yet so far. |

Closer to 25 - 30 years old. The Railway End is slightly more recent, between 20 - 25 years.
Still relatively recent in the grand scheme of things- there’s a general disrepair about the place though, a little like PR became in latter Evans years. |

I don’t think that what Goodman is trying to say is the problem here. The fact that he’s about as articulate as a plank of wood and feeds of his own sensationalism is the problem. That and the fact that it’s all just so pointless and obvious.
It’s hardly a searing insight to suggest that the top four are consistent and that the chasing pack are capable of competing but are less consistent.
Referring to the likes of Goodman, Hinchcliffe, Savage, Sutton and Redknapp as (and plenty of others) journalists is inaccurate and misleading. They are merely cynical ploys to motivate us all to phone premium rate phone lines and engage them in moronic public arguments.
Ignore. |

In your first paragraph you’ve absolutely nailed the Sky / Hinchcliffe / Goodman / Sutton angle, conveniently ignoring an exceptional season and a play off winner that finished below us by potentially 15 points or more….
I want us going up to be the controversy, not Leicester’s points deduction. |

Is it just me that hates that ‘all Leeds aren’t we’ slogan?
For some reason it epitomises all that repulses me about that club.
Where does it come from? |
