Good Morning Everyone, There is just over 48 hours until the Championship kicks off with Leeds v Burnley. Does the lunch time kick off help or hinder either team, or does it make no difference. Personally, I like 3pm kick offs. It's what I grew up watching, and listening to on long wave radio, and club call 0898121180, blimey, I still remember the number. This was before Sky took over. Should Dallas start, or should Leeds keep with the same side that beat Everton last weekend? Who would you have in the line up? Does it pick itself? Do you expect a full house on Saturday? Are you going yourself? Do you expect 3 points on the board, come 2.30 pm?
Elland too many questions mate this early my head hurts I think one thing is certain and that the starting team on Saturday will not look like the team that ended the season. Looking forward to it but Burnley will be one of the stronger teams this season and Dyche is great so expecting a tight game and I hope to scrape a win. We have a tough few games and all losable which means Rosler gets the chop, but if we get points on the board from these tough matches we will be highly fancied by the bookies. hero or zero Rosler must know it
Morning Doc, glad to see you're not sitting on the fence.... What about a starting line up. Think if will start with :- ------------------------Silvestri--------------------- Beradi---------Bellusci---Bamba--------Taylor
Good morning Matt from a dull Bardsey I expect the following squad Silvestri Beradi Bellusci Bamba Taylor Byram Ayemi Mowatt Cook Dallas Wood subs Erwin Sloth Antenucci Doukara Cooper Wooton and Turnbull Leeds to shade it by odd goal Expect a big crowd
Morning Elland and all yet to appear I expect Dallas to start if fit and settled and hopefully we can get off to a good start. I wouldn't be to upset with a draw as Burnley will still be decent even without Ings and Trippier( one p or two?) I'll be watching this one on the TV as I do all Leeds matches that are on. I pay for sky so best make use of it. Good listening to Adam Pearsons interview with West Yorks Sport this morning on Twitter, no doubt he has had a massive influence on turning our club around. Also nice to here him say he expects us to get back Elland Road within a year. I for one believe and trust Pearson. Also said he had a Under 21s coach ready to appoint but had to wait for Cellino to return for his approval. Interesting to see who gets the job as he says they had hundreds of applicants!
Morning. Silly season almost over and the footy to begin. Can't wait for this season. Think we will finish around 10th but could sneak into play offs.
My WIFE bless her says I would have made a great scout but management I think I would be like Clough I tell it how it is not what chairman want to hear I would soon get the sack!
Team will depend on what formation Rosler plays. My selection would be, 4-4-2 Silvestri Berardi, Bamba, Bellusci, Taylor, Byram, Sloth, Adeyemi, Mowatt. Antenucci, Duke. 4-3-3 Silvestri, Berardi, Bamba, Bellusci, Taylor, Byram, Sloth, Adeyemi, Duke, Antenucci, Dallas, We'll have DAD as our strike force. I'm not keen on the 4-2-3-1 formation, too defensive.
What do you think to my prediction Matt about our chances this season I looked at all the teams and assessed each one based on what they had spent etc unless we get some big signings only Derby and Boro have spent more than us to date and Boro I think will get Rhodes from Blackburn to replace Bamford .The rest well once Austin leaves for Newcastle or wherever they will have got rid of the backbone of the team so QPR I don't think now that McCartney has been sold Chalker loaned out and that thug Barton has been removed surprising no one wants him I think that speaks volumes to me Hull may start spending having sold Brady for £7m and Burnley have gone about their business very quietly having sold Ings and Trippier they have recruited Lowton from Villa Dakirwa and Long from Everton My tips for relegation Blackburn Bolton and Charlton possibly
morning everyone Team pretty much picks itself going into this game I'd imgaine. Basically what we played against Everton, just whether Dallas comes in for Duke or not.
Morning Elland......too many questions for this hour of the morning. I'll answer one, I'M GOING..............
Morning all - I agree with Josh I expect the team that beat Everton to start with Dallas on the bench. A week ago Rosler said he didn't expect Wood to feature for the full 90 as he wasn't match fit, that might have been for the players benefit to put an extra effort in who knows. The majority of fans are saying Doukara has done well pre-season so I expect him to start, I am hoping for a win but aren't we all.
Morning All, This is truly a very odd season. I find myself in violent agreement with Ristac. Again! Can't see Dallas starting as he has not been immersed in Rosler's new way of playing. He might come on as sub if we need a winger, but only if needed - unless we're 4-0 up & Rosler wants him to have a 20 minute runout. So, same team as the Everton match for me.
Hello mate, hope your well I never get up for the early ones, not to mention the wife is off work recovering from an op so moneys tight for a few weeks. And the amount i drink pre-post game theres no chance of me getting away with it!
