With one thing after another happening kicking you when you are down together with grid locked roads all around us, it was a relief to get to Elland Road in time for kick off. The one thing it did though was give me no chance to worry about the game ahead of us. I knew …

Derby County v Leeds United 11th May 2019 at Pride Park – play-off semifinal first leg
On Wednesday I was having my nails done and it was really funny when I was introduced to the lady next to me, as she was a Leeds fan too. The two of us were chatting away about Leeds United with Hannah and Debbie looking at us both saying that they hadn’t a clue what …

Ipswich v Leeds United 5th May 2019 at Portman Road
After hearing Bamford had got a two game suspension for simulation after the Villa game by the FA it came as no surprise that Hourihane from Villa had got away with the punch on Klich. Because he stayed on his feet it was deemed not a punch, surprise, surprise. Leeds put in a defence for …

Leeds United v Aston Villa 28th April 2019 at Elland Road
Well it’s certainly never dull being a Leeds fan that’s for sure! Today we had what I call a proper game of football, blood and thunder, with the Leeds crowd roaring the team on. Full commitment from the start from our team which helped to ease the hurt felt after missing out on automatic promotion. …

Leeds U23s v Newcastle 23rd April 2019 Premier League Cup Semi-Final at Nethermoor, Guiseley
Despite Leeds losing the semi-final 3-0 which I put down to me jinxing it (sorry), it was nice to go and see the game. After the pressures of the Championship it was a refreshing change and there were lots of familiar faces there to support the team in a sellout crowd of 3,051. It was …

Brentford v Leeds United 22nd April 2019 at Griffin Park
After having no nerves up to now, today’s game had a different feel to it. Despite sleeping on the way to the services which I thought would take my mind off things, my stomach churning started with a vengeance. After the Wigan defeat which was a real downer, it felt like we’d blown our chances …

Leeds United v Wigan 19th April 2019 at Elland Road
As I headed to Elland Road with my granddaughter Alexis the sun was shining making a great day for football. On arrival at our parking spot all the stresses from a manic week slipped away because all that mattered was being at the game. Although I’ve had to limit going on social media recently, I …

Leeds United v Sheffield Wednesday 13th April 2019 at Elland Road
With such a hectic week behind me I’d not really thought about the game today so wasn’t unduly worried, because as usual I was going to see what transpired on the pitch. With only five games left and having a later kick off due to Sky televising today’s game things could change in the table …

Preston v Leeds United 9th April 2019 at Deepdale
I was travelling by car to this game as the person who was taking me was in a meeting so we set off later than we normally would. Because of this we had a pre-booked parking spot and a big thank you to David Hill for sorting this out for us which is greatly appreciated. …

Birmingham City v Leeds United 6th April 2019 at St Andrews
This week has been a very challenging and emotional week. Tuesday saw a great gathering including lots of Leeds fans pay their respects at Trev Horsley’s funeral. Thursday was the anniversary of my daughter Charlotte’s death and the end of radiotherapy/chemotherapy treatment for my husband Phillip and yesterday saw the anniversary of the murders of …

Leeds United v Millwall – 30th March 2019 at Elland Road
It’s not often that a television crew turns up at your house to interview you! I would like to say a big thank you to Mark and the crew for filming me for the 100 years of Leeds United documentary. I look forward to seeing the finished version of this in due course which will …

Leeds United v Sheffield United 16th March 2019 at Elland Road
The weather was foul as my granddaughter Hannah and I headed to Elland Road showing that this storm showed no signs of abating. With flooded roads to contend with on the way home, I’ll be glad when the weather improves. At least we didn’t have snow like Northumberland and Scotland though. For once it wasn’t …

Reading v Leeds United 12th March 2019 at The Madejski Stadium
After a bad night and an early morning call to Jimmy’s Leeds, I was looking forward to catching up with my sleep on the journey to Reading. Again thank you to fans who spoke to me in support of my husband and me as they are greatly appreciated. I’d seen Andy Loftus post that the …

Bristol City v Leeds United 9th March 2019 at Ashton Gate
Hearing loads of Leeds fans and neutrals had found their tickets for today’s game had been cancelled by Bristol I felt for them. What makes that decision a mockery was seeing half of the away stand seats had been covered over and out of bounds when they could have accommodated these fans. Never mind the …

Leeds United v West Bromwich Albion 1st March 2019 at Elland Road
Before the game I couldn’t have told you what day we were one never mind who we were playing, plus I’d forgotten the game had been moved for Sky. Suffering from extreme lethargy I needed a pick me up that’s for sure. The Navan Whites were bringing their new flag with them and I’d arranged …

QPR v Leeds United 26th February 2019 at Loftus Road
As Leeds headed to QPR for the re-arranged game, I tried to ignore all the stats coming out about their recent bad run of defeats. Having followed Leeds for so long, I know the form books go out of the window when they play us but for once I was hoping we would have the …

Leeds United v Bolton Wanderers 23rd February 2019 at Elland Road
Firstly, it was good to hear that Jack Clarke’s recent illness has been diagnosed as a virus and that he is back in light training. Get better soon Jack and I look forward to seeing you back on the pitch. The soap opera of Leeds United reflects my own family, with always something going on. …

Leeds United v Swansea 13th February 2019 at Elland Road
It was good to hear that Jack Clarke was released from hospital and although he is still having more tests this week, I wish him a speedy recovery and look forward to seeing him back on the pitch. Personally, my days of multi-tasking and trying to be Superwoman came to an abrupt end yesterday as …

Middlesbrough v Leeds United 9th February 2019 at The Riverside Stadium
First of all I want to wish a speedy recovery to young Jack Clarke and hope that he is okay, after an incident in the dugout in the second half resulted in him being taken to hospital. This resulted in 12 minutes of injury time which also included time added for subs and time wasting …

Leeds United v Norwich City 2nd February 2019 at Elland Road
As usual things are never straight forward for Leeds United. With lots of fans staying up for the transfer deadline on Thursday evening with the imminent signing of Dan James from Swansea, I went to bed. It was only the next day that I found the deal to be off due to Swansea in fighting, …
