    From the pre Wigan press conference, Bielsa on JKA to paraphrase, 'he needs to adapt, adaptation is not going to be short, for our last experience it's always a process that takes one month' so don't be holding your breath to see him play.

    I doubt we will start as badly as we did against the wallies. Hopefully we'll start how we played in the 2nd half. In which case we should be too strong for them. But we are Leeds and we don't do anything the easy way.<ok>

    He'll be on the bench on Saturday 100%.

    Will probably only get on if we're either desperate for a goal or 8-0 up...after Cardiff we can't take any unnecessary chances.

    He spoke very well about being at Leeds (confident ****er), hope we're 8-0 up and he gets a few minutes <ok>

    Last season Shaks we came out absolutely on fire against them...missed a penalty (man sent off for the handball), scored a good goal and looked like we would win easy peasy. Unfortunately Beradi had other ideas and 1 minute before HT went charging in, Alioski slipped and their player had the freedom of ER to run in on goal. It was just mad and totally uneccessary against 10 men.

    After that we just lost the plot, were jittery all over the place chasing a win when a draw would have seen us back up to 2nd in the league.

    Think we all remember how it all turned out...but that was the day we panicked and collapsed as a team.

    It very much remains to be seen if we've learn't from that...at the moment you would have to say not.

    Ive told you several times, if you've a problem, ignore. Its not rocket science even for you. And by the way that video was posted mainly for Shaks benefit as he mentioned he hadn't seen it

    Whether he gets a run or not Saturday, the big thing for me is if Bamford picks up a knock at any point, we now have a replacement. Even the few weeks between Eddie leaving and Kevin arriving was a worry not having a second fit striker on the books. We may now be able to use Pablo a little more sparingly to get the maximum from him

    To be fair Eire...if we didn't have a go at each other there would be bugger all to talk about.

    What with us being top of the league and all.

    Saw a decent article from Paul Robinson today but probably best not to post it. Too many sensitive souls around tonight. In summary he was pointing out how crucial promotion would be in this particular season given the finances

    I hope that was the case, but I though the same as Shako when I saw it.
