Evening all. The result of tomorrow's game will depend on which Leeds team turn up and in which formation. Diamond, & we'll get stuffed. 451, & we have a real chance. I think we'll go 451. Byram will provide the width. Hopefully Antennucci or Sharp will have the lone role, & we'll get home 1-0
I've seen Birmingham a few times live this season and in almost all them games they were dominated in yet managed to win or draw a few where they looked out of it for long periods, tomorrow I'm hoping Leeds can do just that on them. 2-1 win I will plump for, it's time to get winning and today seems as good as any
Fantastic match thread... As always. Hopefully back to winning ways 2-1 Leeds but made to sweat all the way
Sharp won't mate he is having talks with Ipswich, Redfearn said in an interview the 4 2 3 1 suits Morison and he just needs to grab a goal and take his chance, I expect Morison to start.
Making the long trip to Elland Road for the first time in three years with my 11yr old tomorrow. Last time was his first time and I promised then that we'd get there more often after that. Circumstance got in the way but now we're going back. And despite the crap we've had to put up with on and off the pitch in those intervening years, guess what - he can't ****ing wait !!!!! He's got all his gear ready, new Leeds shirt, wooly hat and my old scarf from 30 years ago. Say a prayer to the football Gods tonight lads, nothing less than a win will do !
What stand are you in DL? If it's the East Stand, fancy a quick meetup in the ground (pre-match, half time, or both)? I realise that the pub isn't relly an option with an 11yo.
Hope I'm wrong, which wouldn't be for the first time, but I can't see anything other than a Birmingham win, and a comfortable win at that, by 3 or 4 goals. New coach installed by Monday
Can't see it happen. Only happened in the past 'cos we didn't know how to handle Zigic. I'm more comfortable with our defence now, as the season has progressed. Think they'll be strong. It's scoring goals that worries me, especially if Morison is our Great White Hope!
leeds utd 2 birmingham 1 warnock has left yipeeee we might see a better defence now , after drawing to bolton away which i settle for we have a good chance today to beat birmingham dont forget teams in good form can get sloppy in defence and i would like leeds to attack birmingham from the start and put them under pressure and on the back foot so getting leeds an early lead then steady the defencwe and wait 10 mins and start counter attacking birmingham and get a 2nd goal for leeds at half time birmingham will come flying out of the traps so we have to counter attack them after about 55 mins and look to get a 3rd goal and put the match to bed with a good lead .
I think that the result will hinge on how we take care of Gray whose pace is awesome Byram should be right back to take care of him
Morning all. Could be a tense match this one. Lets hope we can keep 11 on the pitch. Brum have been scoring for fun lately and Donadlson is on a run of scoring. Our defence will take some stick early on I reckon. We have a reasonable run in defence terms with 8 goals let in over last 6 games, compared to 12 the previous 6. I am sticking to my 2-1 pred and a move away from the drop area.
