Jack Convery 2 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:01:03 What a great continuing effort by the players of Sheff Wed. Pen shoot out. Ian Bennett 3 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:03:00 Tatty bye dcl. Leeds out Michael Kenrick 4 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:03:01 Hahahahahah!Dominic Calvert-Lewin's penalty!Fucking hilarious. Pat Kelly 5 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:03:04 Calvert-Lewin proving why no one other than Leeds wanted him. Jack Convery 6 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:04:07 DCL misses in pen shoot out. Sheff Wed 3 up and now they are through as Leeds 3rd pen saved. Mike Gaynes 7 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:05:47 Dom missed great chances in regular time too. Everton's decision was a wise one. Jack Convery 8 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:06:18 Such a pity, due to a rightful demonstration by the Wed fans to stay away, only 3000 saw it. Rob Halligan 9 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:07:04 DCL missed a sitter in the last few minutes to win the game as well. Centre of the goal, about six yards out and put the ball wide of the post. His penalty is still rising, heading over the Pennines towards BMD! Jack Convery 10 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:08:06 Huddersfield KO Sunderland.Celtic humbled in Kazakstan and out of Champs Lge. Pat Kelly 11 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:08:13 One on one was never DCL's strongest point Kunal Desai 12 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:08:53 The fella who thought he was better than us and worthy of Champion League footy. That good he couldn't even get a shot on target from 6 and 12 yards out. Priceless. Jack Convery 13 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:09:34 Got to hope our reserve XI win tomorrow. Will Tyler get a cameo appearance. For those who go, I hope so. Josh Horne 14 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:10:11 No doubt it is the ill treatment at the hands of various Everton managers, lack of service, supporters booing him etc. to blame for his penalty miss.Let's see how long Leeds put up with him for. Christy Ring 15 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:10:11 A bit over the top to say the least, always wore the jersey with pride here, doesnt deserve the bitterness. Liam Mogan 16 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:10:49 I'm glad we've moved on from DCL. He really wasn't very good apart from one half season. He just got more and more stale and injury prone. Got no particular animosity towards him, he was just very average. Stuart Sharp 17 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:11:27 That was a truly incredible shootout. You don't see them over after 3 kicks very often. And Leeds fans were leaving mid-shootout, which is truly baffling. As for Dom, well, he had 3 good chances in normal time... Tommy Carter 18 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:12:02 I don't wish DCL any ill will whatsoever. A parting of ways is all it was with both involved looking to move on to something more positive. I guess the people taking joy in his performance this evening are the same types that abused him when an Everton player. Michael Bennet 19 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:13:47 Just seen DCL miss a pen and a sitter for Leeds tonight — he really is a poor player nowadays. How the fuck did Leeds beat us last week? Neil Copeland 20 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:15:49 A lot to thank Dom for; his goals against Palace and the shite were brilliant and well worth whatever we paid him.It was a good time to part ways for both parties and I wish him well but not against us. Liam Mogan 21 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:25:35 If DCL thinks Everton fans turned on him, wait until he feels the vitriol Leeds supporters send his way. Possibly the nastiest, most hatred filled fan base towards their own players out there. Mike Gaynes 22 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:32:19 Hey, whether you liked him or not -- and I did -- it's OK to laugh. Especially at that.And what a brave effort by Wednesday's players as their club collapses around them. 9 starters under age 21 because they have nobody else left on salary, and they beat a Prem club nobody predicted them to beat. Brendan McLaughlin 23 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:32:55 Schadenfreude alive and well on ToffeeWeb tonight. Tony Abrahams 24 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:34:20 Have you not seen the video circulating with the Leeds fans already having a song for Dominic, Liam?He shops in Zara (I can't imagine his partner being happy with this!) he wears mascara, his frocks fucking massive.Not the best welcoming song I've ever heard, but it was quite funny watching grown men singing it Ian Bennett 25 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:34:39 We paid him about £30m. He's done alright out of everton. Neil Copeland 26 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:38:45 Ian, a bargain when weighed against the cost of relegation.Mike, agreedTony, I saw that too Liam Mogan 27 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:40:39 Not seen the video, Tony - will look it up.I work in Leeds and already had 5 messages since 10pm about how 'fucking useless' DCL is. Neil Copeland 28 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:42:23 Liam, sounds like TW live forum Andy Crooks 29 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:50:14 Seems those who hated DCL are never going to forego the joy they got from it.Petty pathetic, gloating. Dale Rose 30 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:54:22 I feel sorry for DCL, I hope he comes through this. Some cope with pressure and others don't. Peter Mitchell 31 Posted 26/08/2025 at 22:56:52 Not sure it's wise to laugh at this just yet - there is a long season ahead and we have to play Leeds at the BMD. Josh King, anyone? Mark Murphy 32 Posted 26/08/2025 at 23:00:36 Well absolutely batter Leeds at BMD. Sam Hoare 33 Posted 26/08/2025 at 23:01:55 I dont wish anything bad for DCL but equally I wont feel sorry for him. He chased the money, which he is 100% entitled to do.Hes barely played in months so no surprise if he showed some rust. Think hell do well for Leeds if fit. Definitely an upgrade on Piroe. Mike Gaynes 34 Posted 26/08/2025 at 23:05:50 Neil, that made me laugh so loud the dog jumped. Neil Copeland 35 Posted 26/08/2025 at 23:10:09 Mike 😁 Geoff Lambert 36 Posted 26/08/2025 at 23:14:54 Championship at best. Cows arse with a cello... Kevin Molloy 37 Posted 26/08/2025 at 23:28:00 I feel I can only now really start to enjoy watching DCL. Brian Wilkinson 38 Posted 26/08/2025 at 23:29:27 He turned down Newcastle last season, turned Everton down wanting £150k a week expecting big clubs to come in for him due to a freebie, even Man Utd stayed clear of him.Ends up at Leeds for the money, plays against a team of youngsters with hardly any home fans in, due to protest.Misses 2 sitters and skies his penalty, Im with Mike, was laughing my nuts off, we can do a lot better than Calvert-Lewin if we want to bring quality players in. And move forward.
