Both teams are on a bad run of form with Donny slipping to the foot of the table this week, and Leeds losing pace with the top six, surely this must be Leeds last chance. George Friend, James Coppinger and ex Leeds goalie Neil Sullivan are definitely out with long-term injuries. Rovers have had a number of players return to training recently but are not yet expected to be involved in the first team. Leeds will be without midfielder Fabian Delph, who picked up an ankle injury in the midweek, before he returns to Villa (Didn't see that one coming Bates). Davide Somma is back in training, but not yet ready for first team football.
Elland, just as a piss take, would you mind putting a picture of bates instead of Leeds United in our matchday threads? yep
Yes. I don't reckon Gimpel and Poleon are anything like 90 minute material. Give them 20 minutes at the end if we're trouncing Donny 3-0, but this isn't the time to **** about with unproven youngsters (one of whom isn't even making the reserve squads at the moment, by all accounts).
I was being sarcastic. If they were ready they'd be in the squad like thompson, white and Lees are. Theres youngsters in the squad that aren't ready so why would you bypass them for these It woulda been nice to have a new manager for this game but obviously thats not happening
We should beat Donny, like we should have beaten Brighton and Coventry(all winnable games) Well I've included the Whites in my weekend accumulator and for anyone who knows how lucky I am at gambling, will know that Donny will now hammer us...
The Gimp doesn't want to play this season, I hope hes ****ing good after all this build up!!! We will lose against Donny im telling you, I want this season to finish now cos I can imagine us getting dragged into the relegation fight, thats how happy I am with the standard of players we have
YWBK, I expect us to have a truly awful run right until the end of the season, but I am physically incapable of seeing us not managing to scrape together 5 points in the remaining 15 games.
Thats not what Boabs sources are saying. They say we will win 3-1, but we will have a player sent off for a second bookable offence in the 63rd minute...
Im sure we will be fine but we should be up there this league is the worst its gonna be for a long time
If Bates announces a new manager before kick off, the players will raise their game and thrash Donny. However, he won't and will be hoping we beat Donny so he can give Redfearn the job to end of season. Donny will be up for this, smelling blood after the Coventry result and I wouldn't be shocked if they took the three points tomorrow. The chairman has now totally derailed our season and for what?
It's actually really strong this season, and I reckon it will be a fair bit weaker next season. The clubs which look like getting promoted and relegated into the Championship certainly aren't as threatening as last season's bunch.
