    some rayte games here. Be a sellout for the bradford game at elland road. The notts game will have a few arrests.

    Love it when we beat them, would only have been better if it were at Valley Parade. Still a good tie. :D

    Will it be a sellout? We got 20k against them in the JPT, I'd have thought we might get about 30k for this, suppose there'll be Bradford fans buying up as many tickets as they can for it too.

    Why a sell out against a league 2 club, you and your "petty rivalries" Theyve never and will never be as big as us. Perhaps Sc*m utd should still be our rivals and Norwich cos theyve laughed in our face twice.

    Even when we played Liverpool in the League Cup, it was Cat B.

    They are all Cat A these days. Even Watford at home on a tuesday nite. I hope we get Pboro at home so we can win 7-6 and be the run away goal scorers again

    I'm really struggling with this obsession with Naarwich. They've done well the last two seasons and been promoted, well done to them. Let them enjoy their trip into the promised land but unless they sign some proven qulaity they'll be back down in the Championship next season.

    Petty rivalries as you put it are what makes football so special, without 'petty rivalries' these pages would be rather dull too.

    100% certain that Watford game in the League Cup was Cat B/C.

    I'm sure Watford was the only Cat C game of the season?

    It was this season, I think we're talking about the League Cup game in 09/10 though.

    We got 21,000 in the Johnstone's Paint against them; I reckon Bradford will bring about 5k again and it'll be an average league attendance 25kish. It brings out all the Leeds fans from Bradford as well, of which there are bloody loads. 20% of our season ticket base is based in the BD postcode apparently.

    I tell you what Bucks, at that time of the season, we've effectively got two teams & it would be a great opportunity to play Paynter +1 on the Tuesday after having played Becchio + 1 the previous Saturday. This is as well as playing Snoddy & Max on Saturday, & Sam & Nunez on Tuesday. It'll all be about getting as much game time as possible out of the whole squad before we settle down to the serious business of auto promotion.

    Boggers <ok> Yep agree. Whoever is on the fringes like say Nunez maybe behind Howson Paynter behind Becchio should get the run out. Keep our first team fresh & give the others a chance to impress. Maybe even rest Kissa for one of our younger CBs pushing through

    Graysons problems are he doesnt know when to play the fringe players. Half the reason why we come short into the new year is because he never changes his team, including cup games. We saw that after big games against scum and arsenal. The league is our priority this year.
