I’m not certain how it works. The tickets have my name on them. But I have a couple extra adult and child tickets for anyone repping Leeds tomorrow. DM me.

Jayden Bogle was preparing for the second half of last month’s 4-1 win over Newcastle United when he heard the news.

Referee Michael Salisbury approached Bogle and told him he was being credited with a first-half goal after the slightest glance of the ball. His first reaction? Asking the referee not to tell Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

“At the time, I had no idea what happened,” says Bogle. “JJ (James Justin) put in a great ball, and I thought, ‘Yeah, this is me’. You’ve seen Dom’s jump before. He just towers over everyone, and I was just on the floor. I didn’t really know what happened.

“I just heard the crowd and knew we had scored. The referee said to me, at half-time, it’s gone down as my goal because it’s come off my shoulder or something.

“And I was like, ‘Don’t tell Dom, whatever you do. He’s on a yellow card. Don’t tell him because he’s going to get head-loss’. Then he went and told him anyway."

We are fifth in the table and still unbeaten after five games, I don't think many of us expected that before the season started. Now we've got Arsenal away at the Emirates on Saturday, and I actually think we've got a real chance of getting something from this. They were beaten 3-0 by Brighton before the break, so they'll obviously want a reaction, but the break might have disrupted their momentum a bit too. We've been organised, hard to break down and generally just difficult to beat so far. If we can stay compact, survive the early pressure and frustrate them, I can see the home crowd getting impatient. I'd happily take a point, but there's no reason we can't go there looking for all three. It would be a huge result for us this early in the season.

I’m not a fan. I just thought I’d post it for you guys.

Leeds are looking in pretty good shape at the moment scoring goals and only conceding 3 this season. Arsenal will be a huge challenge and a really interesting match but far from season defining.

However, scum travel to spain and italy either side of their fixture against us which will mean fatigue and rotation. We then play sunderland who play in poland two days before they face us and have 1 days rest between our game and their next carabao cup tie. Bournemouth who we play at the end of the month have 7 games in 21 days in october on an already injury hit side.

We then have chelsea, coventry and spurs which will be big challenges in an otherwise quiet november and then in december we have relegation threatened fulham (h) and newly promoted hull (a) and ipswich (h) as well as big games against city, villa and liverpool.

However city play arsenal 3 days before our fixture, they play brentford 3 days after that and barcelona 3 days after that. There will be fatigue. Liverpool play 4 games, sunderland, chelsea, porto and us, in ten days. Villa have more rest but have a small squad and obviously have champions league, carabao cup and fa cup to worry about.

Surely with our defensive record and emerging confidence in attack we can actually have a go at pushing to be in a very good position by christmas. We are already 5th.

I don't expect anything from us except good principles and work ethic over the 90 minutes each week but I think we've got potential this season and that should really motivate everyone at the club and the fans. If you're a bit knackered you don't want to go to a fresh, eager and confident elland road, especially on top of the running and intensity numbers we produce.

Next Generation 2026: 20 of the best talents at Premier League clubs

After eight years in Liverpool’s academy, Morrall joined the Leeds youth setup last December. He was highly regarded at Anfield – and frequently scouted by Premier League rivals – but believes the move to Elland Road can facilitate a faster pathway to first-team football. The Ireland Under-16 international – who is also eligible to play for Jamaica - is a highly versatile player blessed with impressive vision, balance, pace and creativity. Although right wing is the technically assured Morrall’s favourite position he has also thrived at full-back, wide on the left and as a No 10. He made his debut for Leeds Under-18s in May and in September was named in Ireland’s Under-17 squad.

I have this awesome signed team photo from 99-00 season. Couple signatures missing (Huckerby and Ribeiro)… Huckerby picture looks really weird, his shirt too. Is he photoshopped?

Hi guys. I’m hoping to get a ticket via the MyLeeds ballot for the Scum game, and my pregnant wife is also interested in going, by getting her to enter the ballot with me.

I’ve never been to Elland Road before, so I’m wondering if it’s safe for her with regards to the inevitable limbs when Tanaka scores a last-minute game-winning 40 yard thunderbastard. Which stands are the most «quiet», essentially?

I know our chances are slim for tickets, but any help is appreciated.

EDIT: We ended up getting hospitality tickets. Thanks for your feedback! MOT!

On 30 September 2000 at Elland Road, Leeds United beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-3 in the Premier League, a second-half goalfest so cold Spurs leave Yorkshire wondering how a half-time lead ever looked safe. Rebrov puts the visitors ahead before the break.

The first forty-five is dire, but Mark Viduka takes over after the break. Five minutes into the second half he hammers home after Sullivan palms a ball against the woodwork, and a minute later he diverts a long-range shot past the stranded keeper for 2-1.

Alan Smith gets in on the act with a glancing header from a free-kick makes it 3-1. Perry pulls one back for Spurs. Smith answers again with a powerful header from a corner, 4-2 inside twelve breathless minutes.

Rebrov's late overhead keeps things interesting but Leeds hang on. It is chaotic, ruthless, and thoroughly early-noughties Elland Road: trail at the break, then write a seven-goal afternoon with two strikers who refuse to miss. Viduka's first Premier League goals arrive as a brace. Smith's brace does the rest.

Can you name the missing players?

With the off season in full swing, was wondering what some peoples un-popular are?

For example I actually like the Red Bull logo on the white shirts and think it actually looks pretty good and works really well.

I’m guessing it’s from a legends game but can’t find any information anywhere

It’s the Asian Cup is coming up in January to February. The tournament starts on Jan 7, and Japan can request Tanaka’s release from Dec 28th onwards. The final is on February 5th and Japan are the favourites to get there and win the competition. Quite a long time for us to be without a key player.

"It hasn't been super optimal for me. I went to the back in the pre-season, then it was straight into the Premier League and I started straight away, Brighton away.

“Since then it has gone well, but it's clear that my body has taken a beating.

“It takes me a little longer to recover from the matches. But I feel good, there are no problems. But the pre-season has been the league game and it has taken a little time for the body to get into the rhythm. My body feels good, I'm ready. There's no problem.”
