The new season started today away v Derby.
Final score Derby 2 - 5 Leeds U21
4 (FOUR) for Fernandez and a maiden strike for Sonny Perkins.
I look forward to games on LUTV (I hope) when matches don't clash with Premier league fixtures.

For those that care about the next generation of academy talents come through, I have a mind boggling stat's for you to think about.
Since the signing of Scotland young 16 year old talented striker Lewis Pirie in the summer our home grown boys have lifted to try prove they are better.
Stat's this season.
Leyton Brown, 16 , ST - 4 goal in 6 games.
Lewis Pirie, 16, ST - 3 goals, 1 assist in 5 games.
Harvey Vincent, 16, M - 3 goals, 2 assists in 7 games.
Josh McDonald, 16, W/F - 3 goals in 7 games.
Finley Gorman, 15, AM - 2 goals, 1 assist in 5 games.
Harry Grey, 14/15, attack - 2 goals in 2 games.
Then you have left back 17 year old Coban Bird looking a lethal overlapping full back and Reuben Lopata- White looking as a deep play maker from CB and the twin DCM of Rhys Chadwick-Chaplin & Daniel Toulson acting like dogs chasing a bone and not wanting other to touch it.
This side has some serious talent....
We forget that both Archie Grey and Charlie Crewe are both 17 year old CM talents. Plus CB James Debayo just turned 18. Then you have 15 year old CB Alfie Cresswell.
There are also strong chatter about kid call Luke Matykiewicz who has talent but need playing time. And 15 year old midfielder Jack Morris.
Appentley the youth coaches have been using what they learnt from watching Biesla for the last 36 month and most of these kids coming through have benefited from it.
