Lakenheath Old Boys

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

The Early Morning Leeds Show

 

A very good morning to all of you. I'm up with the roosters this morning to watch my beloved Super Whites as they host local rivals Huddersfield in a Yorkshire Derby. After the calamity away to Stoke in mid-week, we need to bounce back with a convincing win against the Terriers, otherwise the top two are going to start running away with this league. So, let's get those three points. Come on, you Whites! #MOT!

Morning, chaps - I'm in my easy chair with Cinnamon by my side. No telly coverage this morning, so I've got my favorite Leeds YouTuber on the laptop and Chelsea v. Brentford on the big screen.

Looks like Hudders are defending deep - good, bright start from us.

Oh - James had a chance there but his touch let him down.

Burgzorg makes room for a shot and fires just wide.

Edwards goes through the back of Cry and we've got a decent free kick chance now.

Ah, shame - Piroe has the ball in the net but it's ruled offside.

We're piling the pressure on at this point. Seems to be a matter of time.

Oh - Byram finds Rutter in space, he touches the ball round the defender but then his shot was blocked.

A goal would really open up the floodgates here.

We've won another corner - our fourth already. Total dominance.

YESSSSSS!!!!!!!

Dan James finishes off a great team move through Rutter and Cry.

That's Dan's third goal of the season now. I think he's found his level in the Championship.

Jonathan Hogg is booked for a very bad challenge on Ampadu. Might have been red.

Into the second half and we've taken the foot off the gas at 4-0 up. Cry and DJ both on two goals.
