We are playing FC Sarpsborg tonight. I'm not sure if Yorkshire Radio are broadcasting commentary as I think their commentary starts with the Hartlepool game, but maybe they will. The link to listen is mms://streaming.planetwideradio.com/yorkshireradio/YorkshireRadio.asx

Thanks for the link! I hope it is aired, it would be good to get a listen to hear how well some of the players play like Foxe, Carole and Parker if they do play....

Yeah, would be interesting to see if Bakke pulls a decent performance out in his home country too, I wasn't overly impressed with him last season. Great to see Parker finally coming through, he might even start what with Crainey injured and Gregan stuck in the UK due to passport problems.

When Bakke got back in the team he wasn't so bad....... I remember him giving a good performance against Reading at home.....
I emailed Yorkshire Radio and their coverage of Leeds matches doesn't start until the 22nd.... oh well just have to check every now and again on teletext.....

Didn't mean that he was bad, he just seemed quite ordinary, perhaps I was expecting too much, but I've not seen him really shine for Leeds like he used to four or so years ago before his injury. Wasn't Bakke subbed for Ian Moore in the Reading game?  |

Haha can't remember but I unlike all Leeds fans like Moore and it doesnt mean Bakke had put a foot wrong....
To be honest if Bakke can get 100% fit i reckon he'd be the best midfielder in the league next season, also I don't think the formation we played made any of players look as good as they can be apart from Derry......
I thought Bakke's contract was meant to run out at the end of last season, any idea when it actually runs out?

Bakke's contract runs out on the 30th June 2007, another one of Risdale's stupid mistakes giving Bakke that sort of contract when we were strugglin financially was a bad move, just like the Danny Mills situation offering him a four year contract on 35,000k a week, another mistake but whats done is done, it's what happens in the future, hopefully Bakke can show a bit of hard graft this season cause when he played last year he was just a passenger, this season hopefully he will show he merits his £25,000 a week contract, if not then i suggest we ship him out!

In an ideal world I'd like us to offer him a new contract, 2/3 years but at a considerbaly less price, perhaps 10-15k a week and see if he really does like the club like he makes out and will stay to play for us or if he is just robbing us blind.....

Beckford and Blake confirmed starting up front tonight! Should be a good test for Beckford as this is the season he needs to establish himself. Einarsson, Bakke, Stone and Carole in midfield and the defence is Parker at left back, Killa and Foxe central and Kells at right back, (may have got this incorrect though as was on phone at the time I heard it) Yorkshire radio are going to give extended updates at half time and full time tonight, so it will still be worth listening to the link at the top of this thread for a footy fix, (it plays decent music too) |

Leeds 1-0 up at half time!!  Hayden Foxe and Ben Parker having a great game apparently, and Stone, and Carole impressing. Beckford has had a shot over the bar after being put in by Bakke following a mix up in the Norwegian sides defence. Gah!!! I don't know who scored for Leeds, I think it might have been Richardson!!!! |

Oh right, do they just give updates every so often?

Post by WyomingWhite on Jul 13, 2006 17:05:41 GMT -1
yeah they gave a ten minute update at half time - they'll be another one shortly at full time, I think there's about 10-15 minutes of play left.

Parker is left back yeah and doing brill. Foxe looks like a definite signing. Just had a look at Sarpsborg's official site to see if there was any live updates on there, but can't understand a word www.fkspartasarpsborg.no/ |
