    But that's where some of the greatest Leeds stories break first. You need to embrace media and sources even if they're not always spot on

    With the game Monday night and then a massive game against Derby on the Friday, I'd expect a lot of changes.

    Fair call LDS. But were we to lose to Cambridge, what would that do to the morale in the camp?

    Yeah would be a difficult one to quantify. One thing I will say is looking at the bench against Villa, would still be a strong team if all them 7 were in the lineup.

    Think Monk will accept that we're unlikely to win the cup and that an extended run would be both draining on a small squad and distracting, so he will prime the players accordingly and put out a second string.

    Just my take on it.

    All true Davy, but a win and progression may result in a big draw and continued good feeling around the club.

    On the side for the cup, I would play Mowatt and Murphy. Both have the ability to be influential and a class act. But neither are starting as a result of those who've come in. The cup would therefore be a good opportunity to rest a couple of players and give one or two of the squad the opportunity to impress and keep their fitness levels up

    The cup for me, is the very same as an international break. Sooner its over the better and we can concentrate on the one thing that matters. If theres to be a Wembley trip this year, it had better be a play off final. We can get excited about cup distractions when were back in the PL

    That as someone else said is the gamble with loan to buys. If Bartley turned out to be ****e people would be critical of the club for locking us into a deal to buy him. Can't have it both ways, now we've turned him into a player, Swansea might want to keep him.
    Real problem will be if we don't go up, switch divisions with them and he'll want to stay at Leeds. If we're both in the championship they can blow us out of the water in terms of wages with their parachute payments knowing that they have a defender that is very good in this league.

    Depends on who you follow. Stick with the proper sports journalists and the official club feed, then you don't pick up the rumours.

    No point in playing Murphy when he clearly is never going to feature in a monk first team, fit or not. He / his agent should be finding him a new club where he can play regularly. Same with big Dave.

    Not a great first half, but Monk will have bent their ears a bit I suspect
