    Good Morning. It's Thursday 4th June, and here are the latest headlines from Elland Road


    EFL - The show must go on

    The EFL have reiterated that the season will restart on June 20, despite growing opposition. The statement comes in light of nine positive Covid 19 tests results from six clubs (one of which has been revealed to come from Sheffield Wednesday).

    The Individuals have been told they must now self-isolate and may only return to training grounds once they have tested negative.

    What about the the colleagues of the Covid 9, especially as full contact has been in force since the begining of the week.

    In Germany, the entire Dynamo Dresden team were placed in a two-week quarantine following two positive coronavirus tests among the players.

    The EFL have agreed to remove the first midweek game, so only 2 games in week 1, not 3. The Season is set to finish on 21/22 July with the play-off final in early August.

    Colin - Leeds fans deserve it for all what they have taken


    Neil Warnock has backed Leeds to win automatic promotion back to the Premier League. The outspoken veteran Manager was having his say on Talksport recently.

    The 71yo was quoted as saying:-

    "I think Leeds fans are hoping they just abandon the season now and they can have promotion.

    “I think that would have been the best thing. It is an amazing club Leeds - and they will fill the stadium in the top flight.

    “I hope them two go back up, I think Leeds fans deserve it for all what they have taken.

    “And I like West Brom as well so I hope those two can make it. And then it’s anybody’s.

    “But the only thing about Leeds, the crowd, you know what it’s like, it’s so nervous near the end and he [Marcelo Bielsa] doesn’t seem to have a Plan B.

    “I think he’s in a good position this year, I don’t think there’s a third team going to push any of them really.

    "I see them two as probably the best two – and I don’t really see them as head and shoulders above everybody else.

    “So it’s up to them to miss out definitely because it’s in their hands now.”

    Does Bielsa have no B plan?

    Should the remainder of the season be finished?

    Following news of the latest Covid 19 tests that saw nine players or staff from six clubs test positive, is it time to draw a line in the sand and conclude the season?

    We've heard growing support in recent days from fellow Championship clubs that the season should be scrapped. Many of these teams are only looking for an escape route to avoid relegation, and would be fighting tooth and nail for special dispensation why their team should be spared!

    Is it too dangerous to restart the season in three weeks?

    Save of the season

    The Sky Bet Championship official twitter account have put forward the best saves of the season. Which one is the best?

    Reliable Sun journalist Alan Nixon is claiming that a TOP Champion ship outfit have three players that has tested positive for Covid 19.

    There’s one top club with three young players. I take it they are among the nine talked about. Unusual one.

    Morning all.

    I find it very uncomfortable listening/ reading to any comments Colin makes about our club and especially Bielsa. Just winds me up.
    The two are so far apart in terms of football. They are of a similar age. Incredible how they can grow up with such differing philosophies on football.

    You know there isn't really a need for a Plan B when Plan A is working so well. I suspect if there is a Plan B it is "do Plan A better"

    Good Morning to Matt and co from a chilly dull Bardsey
    Well I didn't realise it was independence day today me thinks Matt has got his dates wrong
    I agree that Grayson did a very good job and deserves to be in the top 3 but at whose expense?
    Reported that they may have caught the abductor of Maddie McCann well I still think that the parents should not have left those children unattended and if they hadn't been a professional couple would have had faced charges for child neglect
    Should the season be restarted on 20 yes of course lets get on with it

    Agree with you re. the McCanns. Apparently our police are still looking for her for some reason, after 13 years, is it? Cost of £12m. I wouldn't mind if she was the only missing child, but believe it or not, more than 100,000 children go missing in the UK every year! What about them? Investigations get dropped helluva quickly due mainly to the numbers. So why are the McCann's so important? Must surely have some dirt on the right people, there can't be another explanation for wasting a huge chunk of resource on one child. What about the others? Grr.

    Perhaps Colin is right. If we had a plan B, we'd be top of the league! Oh, wait a minute .... <doh>

    Clearly Plan A is better than any plan Colin ever came up with. Well, perhaps apart from the backhanders plan. <whistle>

    I agree with what you're saying about the Madeleine McCann case.

    The tapas 7 and the McCann' should be made to take lie detector tests.

    The Government assistance the McCanns received and spin doctors who would normally be reserved for Snr Government or Royalty is mind blowing.

    Found this on FB.

    Important information, copied from a friend ...

    A telephone call received today. (Not me!) Be aware !!

    ‘Good morning, I'm calling from the NHS track and trace service. According to our system, you are likely to have been in close proximity to someone who has tested postive for COVID-19. This means that you now need to self-isolate for 7 days and take a COVID-19 test.'

    'OK. Can you tell me who that person was?'

    'I'm not able to tell you that. That is confidential information.'

    'Right. Um... so ....'

    'But you do need to be tested within the next 72 hours. So can I just get the best mailing address so that we can send a kit to you?'

    'Ok (gives address)'

    'Thank you - and I just need to take a payment card so that we can finalise this and send the kit to you.'

    'Sorry - a payment card? I though this was all free?'

    'No - I'm afraid not. There is a one-off fee of £500 for the kit, and test results. Could you read off the long card number for me, please, when you're ready.'

    'No - that's not right. This is part of the NHS so there's no charge.'

    'I'm afraid there is. Can you give me the card number please - this is very important, and there are penalties for not complying.'

    Puts phone down.

    This is how scammers work. Utter ****s.
    And vulnerable people will fall for it.
    Like my mum.

    Tell those you care for so they don't fall for it!
    And please pass it on ASAP ...
