We’re 1-0 at half time against VfL Bochum. Woodrow with the goal. Watching a live stream on Facebook, we look well in midfield and going forward but quite suspect at the back.

Finished 2-1 to us. George Miller with the second goal. Kieffer Moore played 20 minutes too.

Any trouble?

MEN said Leeds had 20,000 there, I read about 6,000 so struggle to believe that. Probably more Leeds fans from over here travelled than Man U though.

There was a fight in the stands, seemed like the Leeds fans attacking the Utd fans but can’t say for sure. Either way the Leeds fan(s) we’re definitely the ones to be kicked out.

Not a chance 20,000 Leeds were there. Crowd was 55,000 with a rough guess of 40000 “man utd fans”, 10,000 neutrals and 5,000 Leeds fans. The fact that 80% of the “utd fans” in utd shirts didn’t even applause or stand up when Utd scored summed it up.

There seemed a good amount of Utd fans behind the other end where I was who were singing all game but only about 50 of them. Credit to Leeds players though, they handed out shirts, towels everything after full time whilst united applauded only behind the goal and left the pitch

Suppose they’re used to that and most of the Man U fans at the game probably live there anyway whereas most Leeds have come from over here.

Incredible numbers out there. Surprised there wasn’t more trouble but then I suppose it’s not really proper United there is it.

Newcastle at home added.

Meant to be playing Fleetwood the night before so not sure what happens there, doubt they would have been expecting us to send a reserve side to that one.

We've just played some Yankee mob called Sacramento Metropolis who Derby beat 2 nil.
We beat them 6 nil.
No injuries on tour, we look fit and newbies to come in.
Happy times for us apart from Flinty going to 'them'.

Finished 1-0 to the German 4th division team, not fussed about the result, as we all know friendlies mean fuck all, especially when you lose them.

I think we've all been impressed with ME in his appearances lasts season, just needs some consistency ad he will be very, very good.
As for Sammy S, it looks like we've got a player on our hands, a type of player we haven't had for quite a time. Very promising thus far but, after jumping from L2, we don't want to put too much pressure on the lad. His interviews are pretty good as well. ;) He's 'having himself' as I remember it.

Eliasson's delivery is easily the best I've seen down the Gate, not even close. Remember being in the pub after the Villa game and all their fans were raving about him, saying how we'd never keep hold of him in the summer. We've kept him pretty under the radar so far but feel like this is his year to explode onto the scene.

Just need a striker with better movement than the too-often-statuesque Diedhiou in the box to take advantage.

Szmodics I'm wary of getting too hyped up in case he's another Eisa...but the signs so far make that seem unlikely

Lost 1-0 to Lincoln City this morning. Mostly a team of reserves and kids. Sam Baldock only first team player who started.

Between 3 and 5,000 travelled from the UK and there have been about 7,000 buying tickets in the Leeds end for both games. A lot of ex-pats obviously, and then you have the local support we picked up when the likes of Kewell and Viduka were playing and we were good

Hope we actually get to see Bodin this year, looked superb again this Pre season. Beauty of a goal today to rival his one against West Ham last summer.

3-1 defeat at Gillingham.

Page and Aneke both come off with Hamstring problems. Our usual luck with injuries continues then.

There’s not a chance in a million years that we’ll stay up as it stands.
