  • Could be good. Isn’t

    Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why do they persevere with Simon Rix on this podcast? He may well be a good Leeds fan, a good musician, and a good bloke. He is also utterly unlistenable as a commentator, and spectacularly inarticulate. Please allow him to retire gracefully and get someone in who is better suited to this.

  • Good podcast with a few niggles

    This is not quite the level of the Square Ball however still decent Leeds United content however it’s ruined by Simon Rix saying “Buuuuuuuuuuuuut” once you hear it, you’ll realise how often he does it and it’s absolutely infuriating!…

  • Great podcast for Leeds

    I always enjoy these guys, often positive, informed and constructive, a must for Leeds fans!! Unless you’re one of those thin skinned little man babies who can’t accept they don’t always share your view or heaven forbid talk about politics 🤣

  • Stick to the Football

    Great show normally but stick to the football lads. This week’s episode included a nauseating letter read. Even the sport podcasts showing the BBC’s left wing politics now!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Preview 26/27: Brentford (H)
Q: What do you think in terms of team selection for Sunday?
They seem inclined to keep the same starting XI as the previous match, with a possible Okafor upgrade over Aronson to add attacking impetus at home, depending on how the squad adapts to the Brentford test.
EP 202: Safe?
Q: What does the win mean for Leeds' safety?
It reinforces the belief that 39 points will be enough to stay up, with Leeds maintaining a comfortable buffer over relegation rivals, and several scenarios still favorable for them to finish higher.
EP 178: Overanalysing
Q: What do you make to Daniel Farker's comments afterwards?
Farker's comments about not needing to overanalyze the game drew mixed responses, with some agreeing while others felt it needed deeper analysis due to the disappointing performance.
EP 175: Dropped
Q: Do you think Farka's communication style influences his leadership on the squad?
Farka tends to give long answers but that's out of his desire to explain things thoroughly, and he is an excellent communicator.
EP 175: Dropped
Q: Why don't we play Piru just behind Dominic Calvert-Lewin?
It's hard to fit everyone in; Piru's role is tricky, and he might not be starting much this season.
