    Hey pals, Peter Lorimer has been on the phone to Masky...distraught he was too! Voted for Corbyn....going on about “for the many not the few” or something...Fug nose what that was about! However he had a double at 100/1 on a Labour victory, and a Gary Madine hat trick...sounded alright to Masky! City to win 2-1 with the big man to poke one in.....oh matron! :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Leeds captain Liam Cooper could return from a calf strain if boss Marcelo Bielsa is satisfied he is 100% ready. Alan Clarke is champing at the tit...looking for a start!

    The Championship leaders, above West Brom on goal difference, have won seven games on the spin and are unbeaten in 10 after the midweek victory over Hull.

    Cardiff City boss Neil Harris may consider changes after a disappointing 2-1 defeat at Brentford on Wednesday.

    Forward Junior Hoilett is a doubt after he limped out of the game midway through the first-half.

    Match facts
    • Leeds United have lost their last three league matches against Cardiff, all during Neil Warnock's reign as Bluebirds boss.
    • Cardiff have lost just one of their last 11 away league visits against Leeds (W7 D3 L1), losing 1-0 in November 2015.
    • Leeds United are looking to record eight straight league victories for the first time since September 2009. The Whites haven't won eight consecutive league games within the same campaign since 1931-32 - a season in which they went on to be promoted to the top-flight.
    • Cardiff have won just one of their 11 away league games this season (D5 L5), a 1-0 victory at Nottingham Forest in November.
    • With 46 points from their opening 21 games, this is Leeds' joint-best points tally at this stage of a season in the second tier (also 46 points in 1963-64 - considering 3 pts for a win)
    • No Championship side has scored more 90th minute goals this campaign than Cardiff (4 - level with Sheffield Wednesday).

    Nelson and Bacuna benched in favour of Morro and Vaulks - let's see how this pans out.........<whistle>

    Just realised Harris gone with an established 3 man midfield - Pack/Vaulks/Ralls leaving Tomlin to play at No 10 and only one recognised wide player in NML.

    Very interesting. Warnock never played without having two "wingers" in the side for width. Something different?

    Got to feel for Nelson, swapped at for a more pedestrian Morrison. Doubt we’ll see mutch attacking from our lads.

    Be interesting to see how the midfield 3 go and who works to defend our left wing when out of possession.

    Im ok with the midfield and keeping tomlin in the side suggests some attacking intent.

    Disappointed at CB. If i were dropping one, it wouldnt have been nelson.

    How about all over the pitch.

    WBA and Leeds have proper managers and players.

    We are awful.
