Leeds United fans are right to be upset after the EFL changed the kick-off time for their Championship match against Blackburn Rovers. The Whites will travel to Ewood Park on Saturday, November 30th, with a 1:30pm start time rather than 3pm. This was done at the request and intervention of the Lancashire Police, leaving Leeds little choice but to accept. Supporters are right to be upset with the league organizers for making such a late change after making the schedule available two months ago. Leeds United fans rightly annoyed with EFL Blackburn Rovers announcement It is safe to say that…
Former Nottingham Forest player Brennan Johnson has been the victim of vitriol with his new club Tottenham Hotspur this week. Brennan Johnson, a former Nottingham Forest favourite, has recently experienced a tornado of extraordinary highs and lows. From social media criticism to a match-winning goal, and even calls to return to the City Ground, he has seen it all. £47.5 million is a hefty transfer fee for someone who was only 22 years old at the time, as if Premier League footballers weren’t already under enough pressure to perform. Strong doubters may have even commented that it was a move…
Beren Cross feels Peter Lowy could be “priceless” at Leeds United when Elland Road expansion plans are finalized. The Whites have been eager to commence stadium development, and 49ers Enterprises is ready to move forward [Phil Hay, October 2023]. With that said, Cross wrote for LeedsLive on September 19 about how Lowy can be influential in completing the project. He stated how the Australian is one of 49 Enterprises’ largest investors and was previously the CEO of Westfield Group, which helped the shopping center network become a global organization. Cross reported that the businessman is set to be “an important…
Liverpool targeted Martin Zubimendi during the summer transfer window. Martin Zubimendi has reportedly encouraged Liverpool to renew their interest in him when the January transfer window opens. The midfielder was the Reds’ primary target in the summer, as Arne Slot sought to expand his midfield options. Liverpool were prepared to meet Zubimendi’s £52 million release clause in his Real Sociedad contract, but he chose to stay with his hometown club. Zubimendi was expected to sign a new contract in San Sebastian. However, Estadio Deportivo adds that the Spain star, who helped his team to Euro 2024 triumph, has ‘decided to…
Nottingham Forest had a successful transfer window, with the club addressing a number of issues within the squad. Olympiacos welcomed eleven new players, two of whom – Marko Stamenic and David Carmo – signed season-long loan deals. The most significant statistic was that almost 20 players were offloaded, including last year’s dismal loans, all of whom returned to their clubs, indicating that clearing the decks was necessary. Another Forest player, Anthony Elanga, was linked with a move to Newcastle on transfer deadline day, but Forest maintained their £50 million value. That interest may persist, and if he leaves in January…
Archie Gray’s first start for Tottenham was an entertaining Carabao Cup affair in which Spurs eventually defeated Coventry City, but he still looked like a Leeds player after the game. The 18-year-old joined Tottenham from Leeds at the beginning of July for a fee of £40 million. However, a quarter of that cash was immediately returned to Spurs for the permanent purchase of player Joe Rodon. However, Gray has been forced to wait several minutes at Tottenham. He appeared in Spurs’ first two Premier League games against Leicester and Everton, but was benched against Newcastle United and Arsenal. On Wednesday…
Four days after their epic win over Liverpool, Nottingham Forest fans are still ecstatic. The Reds won at Anfield for the first time since 1969, and Nuno Espirito Santo will never forget it. Forest won the day thanks to a goal from Callum Hudson-Odoi on 72 minutes, and the delight was written all over his face. The Reds need to strive to put this game behind them and generate a same level of effort at Brighton on Sunday. Forest have had a fantastic start to the 2024/25 season, winning twice and drew twice in their first four games. The Liverpool…
Sam Greenwood, a Leeds United loanee, has had an up and down start at Preston North End, but he had one of his greatest performances yet in the Carabao Cup. Greenwood is one of only five Leeds players presently on loan, and this could be his last chance to prove he has what it takes to play at Elland Road. It has not been an easy start for him at Deepdale, with PNE dismissing the manager who signed him, Ryan Lowe, after the season’s first game. He has continued to play regularly under new manager Paul Heckingbottom, but results have…
Liverpool began their Champions League campaign under Arne Slot with three well-deserved points at the San Siro on Tuesday night. A new structure and a new manager, but the same old Liverpool in Europe’s top competition, as they defeated AC Milan 3-1. Slot would have been angry and annoyed when his side conceded early on, with ex-Chelsea sensation Christian Pulisic firing home from a tight angle. However, Liverpool took control of the game after that, scoring twice from set pieces before Dominik Szoboszlai added a third shortly after the hour mark. Jamie Carragher believes his previous club are ‘early candidates’…
