The Square Ball: Leeds United Podcast

At least Warnock has sorted out the defence, eh? After the Forest horror show, the pod - missing a man - reflects on that and the other matches, including a great win at Millwall. The team remembers other humiliations in the history of the Whites. Plus there's the usual scattergun approach to predictions for the upcoming games against Watford, Reading and Derby.

Elland Road is awash with optimism and so is the pod - well most of it anyway. In light of recent performances and a great win at Middlesbrough, the team discuss the new broom effect.

Neil Warnock has arrived at Elland Road along with Danny Webber, but Andros Townsend's head is no longer with us, which casts a large shadow over proceedings. The team looks at the Redfearn era before having a chinwag with the Supporters Trust chairman, Gary Cooper, on the phone. Next up we have Hull and Southampton and the predictions are getting wild.

It's all change at Elland Road as the pod examines Simon's sacking and his likely successor. There's also chatter about the Smiths, shirt numbers, sendings off and side show Zigic. Brighton, Coventry and Donny are on the way for R*dders and the Lazarus-like AOB. Sadly, there's discussion on that fictional hockey team franchise down the M1 and that makes Moscowhite really angry. Hosted on Acast. Se...

In this edition of the pod, Howson is history at Leeds United and there's substantial unrest on the terraces.

Past and future are put under the microscope in pod 42. After United's traditional blip over the festive period the boys hope for a better 2012 and, Terry Henry aside, there's every hope that better fortunes lay ahead for the Whites. Looking back across the past 3 years, the team examines Simon Grayson's tenure. Looking ahead, there's sickly Palace and Ipswich on the horizon, but here in the prese...

United have been in the giving mood in the run up to Christmas, unselfishly letting the likes of Watford and Reading take points from us. There's a jolly half term assessment of the club's progress and, while the team are happy that season ticket prices have been frozen, they'd prefer not to be coughing up for them in winter. And, with Derby, Barnsley and Burnley all coming up, will it be a bleak...

After a three week hiatus the team returns with a specially extended podcast to remember Gary Speed. There's joy at three wins out of four, even if Andy O'Brien doesn't feel the same.

Hosted on Acast. See acas...

After Paul Rachuka's meltdown aaginst Blackpool the team mulls over the pressures of playing for the Whites and wonders if our history is overbearing. There's rejoicing at Clayton's Leicester stunner and some posh boy baiting with Eddie Howe's Burnley lurking just over the western horizon. Beware - Barnsley are coming too. Plus there's more on street names and rogue building decorations...

It's Halloween so the team appropriately reflect on recent defensive horrors from Rachubka and O'Dea, and recall various grim memories from the past - think Carlton Palmer. With the team on the up and attendances on the way down is there cause for grave concern? Blackpool and Leicester are on the horizon and the team make bold predictions that will no doubt have hellish consequences. Hosted on Aca...

It's been a busy old week with the 'Who Owns Leeds United?' documentary on telly and the pod speaks to the programme's producer, Neil Morrow, to find out more about the show and hear his reaction to Ken's diatribe.

It's transfer deadline day and the pod attempts to capture some of the excitement with a lot of Sky Sports-style loud noises and hyperbole. It's au revoir to Max, and there's a look back at Hull, West Ham, Donny and Ipswich, and a fruity look at Dougie's Palace. Plus, there's all the usual high-brow chat about insomnia-inducing insects, experiments on the Turner twins and all-male barbecues.

The season is underway and normal service is resumed. The team look back upon the shaky start against Southampton, Bradford and Middlesbrough and look ahead to tough games against Tigers, Hammers and Tractors.

Two games, ten goals, two different outcomes. After Davies is dumped on his backside, there's another beating in Bermondsey. It's all a far cry from when Leeds were in the Champions League. Did you know it's only 10 years... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
