[Football] Ben White - Sings new FOUR year deal.

[The Fridge]

So kindly F**K off now, we've finished with the "Bantz" as we want to talk about OUR player.

This would be a fair response if 10 of the next 15 replies on this thread didn’t mention us.

Succinct and I doubt the non caring **** will be posting again

You’re wrong there Mr ‘Icy Gull’


I don’t blame you lot for talking about Leeds all day, I also really enjoy talking about Leeds. Must be nice to finally talk about a club with a little bit of relevance.

And don’t despair too much when you’re playing the likes of Wycombe and Luton next season, at least you might draw against your beloved Leeds in the cup.


All the best for this season.

It only took Potter one friendly to ruin the best English centre back since Bobby Moore

Saw loads of this on Twitter earlier. Had to chuckle.

Open none loaded questions

Can Ben White shine in a back three?
Is he more suited to a back 2?
Perhaps he’s better suited in a team that does less defending and more possession?

I know we faired pretty well today but I’d have liked to see him in a back two in the second half.

45 mins against PL quality is too little to judge.

Lets get real whatever happens this season its unlikely he will be the best centre back at the club. Dunk is and no doubt will continue to hold that title.

Exactly. He had a good season in the Championship, the PL is a massive step up and he needs to be eased in not thrown in. I imagine most of the Leeds fans creaming.their pants about him haven’t even seen Leeds in the PL. Complete over hyping of a young prospect.

Well at least we’ll always have the football police to try to ‘school us.’ We’ve been out of the PL for 16 years and still have 6 more years experience in the Prem.

I’ve got respect for Brighton on the pitch. You’ve got a decent team and a good manager, just drop all this high and mighty nonsense - you’re embarrassing yourselves by acting like you’re the role models for class (it’s almost as bad as the minority of Leeds fans saying we’ll finish top 6)

I think I speak for all Leeds fans when I say that we couldn’t really care less what you think of us. So if the only reason you’re talking about us so much is, as you say, to ‘school’ us then you’d probably be best to give up now.

What is probably more likely to happen, is another 1000 pages of discussion about us, maybe we do make your life a little more interesting..

I like how Leeds fans display their indifference about us by repeatedly posting long, tedious, dreary posts about us on here

 

[Eeyore]

I can see him having a few wobblers to start with, It's a huge step up, but his robbing Werner and a delightful 50 yard pass shows he has huge quality.

The Chelsea goal was a collective fart rather than individual error.

Ben White looked so happy to be in the stripes with some decent players around him. You could tell he was well happy to have escaped Leeds.

We we played in yellow......

Yeah I know.

Ok mate, only in your dreams have Leeds been eclipsed by Brighton. Leeds have still made more news playing the division below than Brighton have in their 3 in the premier league. You might have had a better team for a couple of years but Brighton will never be the bigger club.

If all you read is the Yorkshire Evening Post Leeds Live and Twitter feeds from Leeds United and all you watch is “Look North”...that’s not really surprising is it poppet?

The National news hardly mentioned you until it became obvious that a Brighton loanee and a contractless manager had got you promoted.

I...I did it!!!!! I finally broke the spring that kept this dickheads mind spinning. I claim him and want his bloated head mounted above my mantle....

Possibly with an apple or something in his gaping mouth...

But , thinking about it, the missus might have something to say about it.

Thought he looked a very good prospect yesterday and only had to look across to see what a year in the Premier has done to last year's best championship defender and, a little closer, how good you can be with a few years in the Premier.

The junior partner in what is already a proven top quality premier defence, he must be pinching himself

I thought he made the transition from ‘big fish in a small pond’ to ‘small fish in a big pond’ just fine. Without the pressure of the being the best player at the club, he’ll have the space and understanding to develop properly here.

I'm really worried now , he's only gone and got himself a whippet and called it Billy .

I just hope Dirty Leeds let us keep him ....he looks quality, mind you so did most of the team yesterday. More than held our own against the West London Russki's.

I think what's happened also shows a very good character.

It can't have been easy a year ago, to be told that you haven't made the first team squad and that you are going to be loaned out to the second tier. Every player wants to play at the highest level they can.

However, he obviously got his head down, worked hard, and did exactly what the Albion's development team asked, and has now got his reward with a place in the squad

Agree. Particularly when you consider he was released by Southampton as a youngster. That must be a real hammer blow to the confidence and I guess a lot of kids just give up at that point rather than having the mental resolve and self belief to keep going. Obviously I know nothing but it appears he has the sort of character, lack of ego and steely determination that fits the club’s current ethos perfectly. Let’s hope.
