    I’d bring him on at 2-0 up just for a run out.

    Not tslksport or the bookies! Day after our Luton result. Gave odds for promotion for 3 sides only! Never mentioned SAFC! Alan ****ing Brazil even said Leeds play Burnley on Monday, had 3 other people on the show at the time, not one corrected him!

    No doubt about it mate.

    Also, if we win, Leeds will be fired up to set the record straight and get back to winning ways in their next match, who I believe is Sheffield Utd, who may well have taken over at the top by beating a poor Luton side.

    We could be doing ourselves a massive favour by winning on Monday.

    Mundle coming back is vital he should be a sub, stopping them play is the key they are due to slip up, and this could be it. 1-1 would do me.

    Thanks RTB, great thread once again.

    Huge game this. Especially with Leeds playing Sheff Utd in their subsequent match. I’d take a draw, but these are the games that this group of lads seem to thrive in.

    Leeds in great form currently, however, so will go for a 2-2 draw.

    HA'WAY THE LADS

    MACKEMS ATTACKEM

    Leeds showing they are the strongest side in the league up to now but there are still 14 games to go.
    Le Bris needs to be spot on with tactics, and the lads need to be on top of their game.
    I think they edged it at our place but we dug in and got the draw.
    We also fair better away.

    Hopefully this is a great game but I'll take three points over anything atm.

    Chance to close the gap to 4 points rather than slip 10 points behind.:eek:

    Bit of a dilemma for

    @Makemstine Roger eh Rodg ya dorty little lilly white peacock ya <laugh>


    Coooooooomooooon the black cats.

    Thanks RTB for another brilliant thread.

    I havent looked forward to a game like this for a long long time. It feels like it could be an absolutely elite game of football between two brilliant sides. I think we could see excellent football, individual brilliance, tactical excellence and no shortage of drama.

    I think, in terms of predictions, it is a very hard game to call. I wouldnt venture too far from Regis preferred team. Choice between Ballard and Mepham. Ballard was excellent last time, but maybe Mepham for his better reading of the game. It should be a titanic battle in CM, but I wouldnt swap Jobe and Neil for anyone in this league. I thought Rigg put in a massive shift the other night, off the ball. If he can do the same again for 65 mins it will a job well done. I think we all expect wonder moments from him, but at 17 his off the ball work and intelligence is remarkable. Le Fee probably has his toughest match up so fat against Bogle, and Tanaka will no doubt get as close as he can. I hope they double up on him and Jobe benefits from some space. Could be where we get success in a tight midfield area.

    Anyway, cant bloody wait for it. Wish it was today.

    Those that think they're an expert and know more than RLB and Speakman. Ludicrous! Support the lads, all of the lads, FFS.

    As they did with Clarke, Amad, Hume, etc, Samed is a quality player and RLB knows it.

    He was crucial to Lens almost beating PSG to the French title and was judged the best central midfield player that season ...

    ... but, of course, some people are so smart they can judge a player after three games.

    If there was a 'Told you so' smiley they'd be desperate to click it ... they'll have to make do with this at the moment :emoticon-0136-giggl
