    Good Morning Everyone,

    ROTHERHAM V LEEDS UTD


    Luciano Becchio has fractured a heel and is out until at least Christmas. Kirk Broadfoot, Rob Milsom (both ankle) and Richard Smallwood (hamstring) are all back in contention.

    Rotherham keeper Kari Arnason has returned unscathed from a triumphant spell with Iceland, where his side kept two clean sheets in their Euro 2016 qualifiers, notably keeping Robin van Persie quiet in a 2-0 win over Holland.

    Leeds defender Stephen Warnock is expected to return but Brazilian midfielder Adryan is not yet ready to make his full debut.

    No wins in four games, and we have only won once away from home this season, I'm going to go for a 3-1 to Leeds


    Durham, if you were going to do a match thread let me know, and I'll change this one back into the Breakfast debate...

    Its always interesting to hear what fans from other clubs think about us, and our predicament. Here is one fans view (topic is about paying £29 for an away ticket at Elland Road)

    "Considering the area they allocate to away fans those prices are an insult. mind you every picture you see of Elland road now shows rafts of empty seats which were frequently full when they were in league 1. something is seriously wrong in that part of west Yorkshire. i wonder whether they have increased the prices to ensure that the home support outnumbers the visitors.

    Great shame i didnt think they could get a worse owner than Ken Bates but they have justproved anything is possible
    ".

    I'm sure that some of those comments are tongue in cheek, but looking at our last three home games, our attendances were 29,131, 20,705 (midweek game) and 24,094. Although these attendances are relatively healthy, they are nothing like they were i League 1.

    Thoughts?

    Ched Evans was paid £20,000-per-week by Sheffield United AFTER being convicted of rape http://

    Thoughts?

    Why no Adryan yet? Is he crap, not fit, overweight or what. If he was good enough this week (by all accounts) why not now. Yes I know he's a kid but so what

    Great reports from the last couple of games he had played for the U21's by Redders!

    IMO We need as many experienced players on the pitchs as possible tonight. Tubby will have Rotherham flying in and we will need discipline and not to react (more red cards are possible tonight if we get suckered in). We also need some on the pitch that wont be bullied by a very physical team. 0-2 Leeds.

    The words on the above image must be your family motto.
    Is the image your coat of arms?

    Morning all. Adryan clearly not good enough yet, will he ever be? Im not fussed once we have eleven on the pitch doing the stuff. If he doesn't work out, send him back. As for his under 21 performances, one of those games was against Doncasters under 16's. Most of us could probably look decent against that Really looking forward to relaxing tonight and watching the mighty whites. Great way to start a weekend

    There is talk about Doukara getting dropped in favour of Sharp.

    There is also talk of Sloth getting drooped to.

    I'd love to see Dawson start.

    I really like that team you picked Matt and good morning by the way to you and your merrymen from a very sunny Cote de Bardsey
    I am a great believer in if they are good enough they are old enough but having a chat with Aide he convinced me that the lad was not as good as he had be made out to be
    Its now time for Darko to step up to the plate he has had 2 weeks to get what he considers his strongest team assembled and if he picks Pearce ahead of Cooper I will have serious doubts about him
    We will have to wait till January for new recruits but we need wingers and I don't mean the likes of Ajose Kebbie Stewart I meand young Gray of Birmingham someone who can give you the wow factor someone who can change the game
    Talking about changing brings me on to Ched Evans I really believe when it comes to football all the rules we are brought up with respect etc goes out of the window
    I cannot believe they paid him 20k a week whilst he was inside his contract should have been recinded immediately as he could no longer fulfill it .He should try and get a job abraod but we don't need his sort in our game .If he had at least apologized then it may have helped his cause but he didn't and it is throwing the wrong message out to our children that you can get away with anything if you play football professionally

    Morning Mike,

    I'd love to see that starting XI, I'd like even more for Adryan to play 30 mins.

    Yeah Ched Evans 20k a wek, absolute disgrace. How much were we paying Snodds, Beckford, Gradel etc in League 1, not even half of that I bet!!!

    The story goes that Evans banged her as did the other guy who got off with it. She knew what was what and that's why Evans will not apologise. As far as he's concerned he's been fit up and guilty of being stupid. His bird is still with him because she spoke to everyone who was there. However he was found guilty and I assumed you don't get let out early if you don't apologise and admit your guilt, so why has he been let out early?

    Doc I believe it only tookm the jury 1 hr to find him guilty so there is more to this than meets the eye

    Is Tubby the vilest human specimen currently employed as a Football League manager ?

    and surely with his past record...he is not a fit and proper person
