Hi Folks

Leeds visit the Hawthorns for the first time in twelve years as two of the most fancied Championship giants go head to head.

Baggies Manager Darren Moore’s will be under relative pressure as his side have only scored twice in their previous four games, a run that has returned just a single point.

They will however be boosted by the news that Dwight Gayle, Gareth Barry and Kieran Gibbs are all expected to be return.

Bielsa has no fresh injury concerns to worry about and will be expected to field the same XI that dominated Bolton last weekend.

Ex Baggie Tyler Roberts will have to make do with a place on the bench.

Leeds will be encouraged by West Brom's leaky defence. They have conceded as many times at Bolton (24).

 

Well they don't do games like this any more, lets hope for a better ref on Saturday and a better scoreline

 

Hate WBA ever since the FA made us play 4 games in 6 days and Jef Astles scored against us and we lost the title.

Darren Moore is not Bielsa so for that reason I can only see us winning

 

The three returning from injury for them will be a major boost. I’d settle for a point in this one, get three points and you might as well hand over the Championship trophy at the end of the game to us

 

Good Morning to Matt and co from a dull Bardsey
They will have 4 players back as Bartley was suspended last week but Moore must be worried that they will be fit enough for the Leeds juggernauts
We are watching the tank a centre forward bought by Bielsa from Argentina so could have a lot of credence
Gayle is the worry lets hope he will struggle

 

You need to edit again,we didn't play Bolton last week.

 

I'm going 1-3 Leeds but I do have one concern over the next few games

I'd back a decent pacy winger v Dallas every time, SD is not even a right-sided player let alone a defender which could be our undoing.

Wigan had nothing in that position, the majority of championship clubs have that type of player in their locker, prepare yourselves for a hair-raising ride down that right flank until January

 

I'll make sure I have an extra stock of beer in. Need it when watching the whites

 

Those were the days,sigh,I`m showing my age now! I`ll never forget the name of Tinkler,ever,the twat

 

Who plays right back lin the U23s ?is he any good where are our back up players and up and coming i hear so much about.

 

Wakey the best right back in the U23s is called Bryce Hosannah but hes out injured and Tom Godden is the other. Hosannah is supposed to be better than Lewie Coyle who is out on loan. Robbie Gotts is a right winger but has also been used as wing back in recent games and he is going to be a first team player before long and obviously we have Shackelton also on the right.

 

The bit about WBA being Championship 'Giants' needs editing too

 

Gotts is a superb prospect, Stevens too.

 

Shako/Eire, check Ryanair for bargains atm, Belfast-Lanzarote 26-30th November £30 return today - might be a bargain for a game?

 

I'm always getting Boton and Wigan mixed up...

 

He went on to be chairman of the Football Association Referees Committee and the referees association.

 

Cheers for the heads up. Are we playing in Spain Davy

 

I hope that's not using the 737 plane the French have seized!

 

No way, Jose
