Whites v Bin Dippers Our next game sees us take on our long term rivals form merseyside. M. W D L Goals F Goals A Record at home in the top leauge is better than I thought 47 15 13 19 59 : 64 The first time we played them at home in the top league was the 1924-25 season where we beat them 4-1, although that season we ended up 18th whilst our rivals ended up in 7th. More recently we drew 1-1 last season where for a long time it looked as though the bin dippers were going to take all the points before a header from Loriente around 945pm tied the game. Two starters and four of the subs from that game are no longer at the club which I guess is a sign of the times. Perhaps Leeds ladies should change their name to the Belle stars. Famous Liverpool fans Sports persons: 1. LeBron James (He owns a share too in LFC) 2. Caroline Wozniacki.Who? 3. Rio Ferdinand (Yes, you read correctly) 4. Theo Walcott 5. Graeme Smith (South African cricket captain.) Actors: 1. Samuel L.Jackson 2. Daniel Craig 3. Clive Owen 4. Brad Pitt 5. Angelina Jolie. 6. Malfoy Other Big names: 1. Nelson Mandela. 2. Pope John Paul II. 3. Coleen Rooney (Yes, much to Wayne Rooney's dismay) 4. Adge from the farm on the hill and Ribs my nephew Team news Headline---Leeds United could be without starter Raphinha for the club’s upcoming meeting with Liverpool at Elland Road if FIFA decide to go with a reported five-day ban stopping relevant internationals playing domestic football after the international break. This comes from The Times (via Leeds Live), with the rule proposed by the Brazilian Football Federation likewise potentially affecting the Reds’ three Brazil internationals, Fabinho, Alisson Becker and Bobby Firmino. Firmino may not play anyway as he picked up an injury at Chelsea last week Kieta has started a coup in Guinea so won't be playing Alex harvey is a sensation but has a knock and is unlikely to play at this point Salah unfortunately will be playing Takumi Minamino returned from international duty early with an injury and may not play. James will probably be off the bench, but has promised to score or assist with two Will Loriente play? Will we get our first win, probably not....... I am going with a 1-1 draw Arrivederci mon amis It could be snowing come kick off

Burnley Football Club were founded on 18 May 1882. It was one of the first footy teams to become professional, and subsequently put pressure on the Football Association to permit payments to players. The club entered the FA Cup for the first time in 1885–86 and was one of the 12 founder members of the Football League in 1888–89. From the 1950s until the 1970s, under chairman Bob Lord, the club became renowned for its youth policy and scouting system, and was one of the first to set up a purpose-built training ground. The team currently compete in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Last year we done the double over Burnley with a 1-0 win at home, and then a fantastic performance at Turf moor where we stuffed them 4-0 on their own dung heap Highlights: Burnley 0-4 Leeds United | Rodrigo double, Klich curler, Harrison flick | Premier League - Bing video They played for both Leeds and Burnley Bailey Peacock-Farrell The goalkeeper established himself in the Leeds starting XI during the 2017/18 season. After making 40 appearances, he left for Burnley in 2019 and made his first Premier League start against Manchester City, last season. Charlie Taylor Like Peacock-Farrell, Taylor established himself in the first team at Elland Road before heading to Turf Moor. He made over 100 appearances for the Whites and has now also surpassed that figure for the Clarets. Peter Swan A defender who came through the academy at Elland Road, making over 50 appearances in the United first team. The centre-half - who could also play up top - had two spells in Lancashire with Burnley and made over 100 appearances. Clarke Carlisle A towering central defender who had one solitary season with Leeds, during 2004/05. His time at Burnley saw him play in the Premier League after winning the Championship Play-Offs the previous season. Peter Haddock Haddock had a brief loan spell at Burnley in 1986, making six appearances. He joined Leeds for a five-year period following that loan and was part of Howard Wilkinson’s Second Division winning side, operating at full-back. John Oster A well-travelled midfielder who played in the Premier League and made over 500 career league appearances. Oster had a short loan spell with Leeds before then immediately joining Burnley in another brief spell. Robbie Blake Part of the Premier League 100 appearances club, 31 of which were in the top-flight for Burnley. Blake is a forward who had a long career at the top level of English football, playing over 80 times for Leeds between 2005/07. Andy Gray Gray began his career with Leeds before then rejoining the club 15 years later. The striker had a long spell at the top level prior to coming back to Elland Road, including two year stay with Burnley between 2006/08. Ian Thomas-Moore Thomas-Moore has a strike rate of one in four during his 17-year career. Two of those years were at Elland Road playing over 50 times, and five of them at Turf Moor, where he made well over 200 appearances. Sam Vokes Still leading the line for Stoke in the Championship, Vokes has played a large amount of Premier League football in his career. An eight-game spell at Leeds in 2009 was followed by 250 appearances for Burnley between 2011-2019. Chris Wood A proven Premier League striker and a New Zealand international, Wood is a striker who has scored plenty of goals throughout his career. A one-in-two strike rate for Leeds is now a one-in-three rate for Burnley in the top division. I kind of wish we still had Taylor and Wood but the greedy barstewards took the money and ran so fook them So on to the game………………… Team news Burnley boss Sean Dyche is hopeful key pair Ashley Westwood and Matej Vydra will be fit for the Premier League clash with Leeds United this weekend after missing the EFL cup game midweek. Former Leeds United winger in line to make second Burnley 'debut' against Whites. The Clarets have re-signed former Whites winger Aaron Lennon who left Burnley in June 2020 after his contract expired. He played for them on Wednesday against Newcastle in the EFL cup. Lloriente and Forshaw got time midweek but unlikely either will start on Sunday Raphina and Koch missed the squad outright midweek but looks like Rapha was just rested whilst Koch still has a Pubis problem (Don't bother with any stupid comments plz ). Rapha probably wouldn't be playing Sunday as he would have likely been called up for international duty, but the Premier league are not allowing travel to South America at the mo---Thank the fook for that Predicted Line-up Meslier, Ayling, Firpo, Coops, Struiyck, Phillips, Klich, Rodrigo, Rapha, Harrison, Paddy I think we nick the game in a closely contested affair, and predict the score to be 3-1 to us with Paddy, Raph (If he plays) and Harrison with the goals As they say in Russia--- Moscow

Whites v Everton Record v Everton Games won: 52 Games drawn: 32 Games lost: 34 First game against them was September 17th 1924 when we won a first division game 1-0 No idea who scored but they had a player called Hunter Hart, how weird is that! And their CF was a Cock.........John Cock to be exact, in front of 2200 ecstatic fans. Apparently Sheppy was one of them. Last time we played 'em was 3rd February last year Score 2-1 to Everton Referee Michael Oliver Competition Premier League Venue Elland Road View Leeds United v Everton head to head Kick-off: 7.30pm Played behind closed doors due to COVID-19 restrictions. Premier League Head to Head Played: 26 Leeds United won: 8 Drawn: 10 Everton won: 8 Leeds United scored: 26 Everton scored: 31 Everton had won two of their last 38 visits to Elland Road in the top division (lost 27). Leeds United Manager: Marcelo Bielsa Everton Manager: Carlo Ancelotti Goals: Goals: Raphinha Gylfi Sigurdson 48 9 Dominic Calvert-Lewin 41 Starting lineup: Illan Meslier Robin Olsen Luke Ayling Lucas Digne Liam Cooper Yerry Mina Ezgjan Alioski Ben Godfrey Stuart Dallas Mason Holgate Pascal Struijk André Gomes Jack Harrison Abdoulaye Doucouré Mateusz Klich Dominic Calvert-Lewin Kalvin Phillips Alex Iwobi Raphinha Richarlison Patrick Bamford Gylfi Sigurdsson Comments: League position: 11th None of Leeds United's last 12 games in the Premier League had now ended in a draw (won six, lost six). The Whites had now lost one and won three of their four midweek games so far in this Premier League season (scored 13, conceded five). They had now kept a clean sheet in two of their last 11 games in the Premier League. Comments: League position: 6th Everton had now won four consecutive away league games for the first time since December 1985 in League Division One. The Toffees had now won seven of their ten away games so far in this Premier League season (lost two). Josh King became the third Norwegian to play a senior game for Everton after Thomas Myhre and Espen Baardsen. Everton are the club of many celebrities around the world, with movie stars such as Sylvester Stallone proudly sporting their Everton colours and Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden showing her support whenever she can. The following is a non-exhaustive list of people who have – at some point – claimed to be an Evertonian. Actors/Entertainers Jake Abraham George Christopher Matt Damon Luke Roskell Dolph Lundgren Bill Dean, Jennifer Ellison Ian Hart David Vitty Amanda Holden Dame Judy Dench Gethin Jones, Andrew Lancel Victor McGuire Roger McGough Jimmy Mulville Simon O’Brien Tom O’Connor Mike Parry Leonard Rossiter Sylvester Stallone Freddie Starr Ed Stewart Claire Sweeney David Thaxton Elton Welsby Ian Smith (Harold Bishop in Neighbours) Music Sir Paul McCartney, – The Beatles Pete Best, – The Beatles Shane McGowan – The Pogues Mike Lewis, – Lostprophets Ian Astbury, – The Cult Ian Ball, – Gomez Paul Draper, – Mansun Lee Mavers, – The La’s Liz McClarnon,- Atomic Kitten Damon Minchella,- Ocean Colour Scene Nicola Roberts, – Girls Aloud Donny Tourette, – Towers of London Osmo Tapio Räihälä, composer Lee Latchford-Evans, – Steps (group) Bill Ryder-Jones, – The Coral Keavy Lynch (B*Witched) Sport Tony Bellew, – Boxing Wayne Hennessey – Football Graham Lee – Horse Racing Martin Dwyer – Horse Racing Riddick Bowe – Boxing John Conteh, – Boxing Matt Dawson,- Rugby Union Austin Healey – Rugby Union Leo Cullen – Rugby Union John Higgins, – Snooker John Parrott, – Snooker Paul O’Connell, – Rugby Union John McEnroe, – Tennis Gangrel – WWE Fandango – WWE I think we will be really cautious for this game as Everton are a formidable opponent. I expect them to set up like this Meslier Ayling Coops Firpo Pirlo Rapha Gelhardt Klich Greenwood Harrison Paddy I will leave you to ponder on this question If Tyler was guilty why didn't he say so? I am hoping the toffees come unstuck (see what i did there) and we will win a close one 8-0
