    Good Morning Everyone,

    Leeds make the short trip down to Ewood Park on Saturday for a lunchtime kick off against Blackburn Rovers

    Wood, Cooper and Coyle are all knocking on the door for a recall, and expected to be fit for the game.

    Who should make way?

    If Wood starts, Antenucci or Doukara have to be benched!

    It's either Berardi or Coyle!

    Cooper in for Bamba is a simpler one.

    Should Evans stick with the team that beat Cardiff on Tuesday, or should there be a shake up?

    16th play 15th. Is there any more to play for apart from pride? A win for Leeds could push them to the top half of the table?

    Is it too little, too late?

    The Yep have written an article saying that Leeds look a more balanced side with Berardi and Taylor playing together.

    Thoughts?


    How good can Silvestri be?

    Who would you compare him with?

    Is he only good on his day?

    When you sit in a vast, pristine, half-empty ground like the Cardiff City Stadium, there’s something sad about the demise of venues as rough as Ninian Park (now a quiet housing estate over the road). Yes, it was horrible. Yes, on our last visit there in 2007 the visiting media corp were in permanent fear of a kicking, sat in the middle of a hostile home end. But it had soul and it put teams on edge. In time grounds like that will disappear completely. And we’ll miss them when they’ve gone.

    Agree?

    Morning all. I'd leave the side as it is and bring Wood on 2nd half. I'd also leave the back 4 alone unless any are on 4 bookings or injured. We go into the game with a real possibility of a 3rd win on the bounce. So let's get behind the team. We're on the up. Leeds to win 2-0

    Morning Boggers, I'd leave Berardi, but have nightmares about Bamba. We need 1 x very strong centre back in the Summer, and let Bellusci and Cooper fight it out for the other cb slot.

    Good shout about Wood.

    Berardi is one of our top 2-3 players IMO and we were much better when he came on for the injured Coyle.Wood for Ant but maybe not Sat,keep him sub incase we have to chase the game with 3 up front.Morning all.

    we owe Blackburn a tonking for what happened at ER. I was watching that with a Blackburn fan who kept telling me prior to kick off how poor they were.

    It was pretty embarrassing

    We need the prediction vote to include Leeds to win by five or more so I can vote for it.
    Think if other results go our way and a couple of clubs go into admin we can still do autos.
    Is that happy clappy enough? :huh:

    BTW I am going on Saturday........ corporate box.... free bar/food
