    From the bbc

    Leeds

    •Leeds have not won any of their last four games, losing two. Their last win was 3-0 against Huddersfield at home on 20 September.
    •Leeds have won only one of their seven away games in all competitions this season. Their only win on the road was 3-1 at Bournemouth in the Championship on 16 September.


    They're bound to beat us with that recent record!

    Bah!

    Lee Clark been sacked by the brummies, how many championship managers will actually survive the season?

    Good chance to reclaim top spot tonight with:

    Derby and M'boro away and Watford playing Forest.

    COYY

    Bah!

    I think Vadis is more effective in the middle. I'd do a straight swap of Vadis with Johnson or at least bring him off the bench and start Howson in Johnson's place. I'd like to see Lafferty given a go up top rather than out wide too.

    Thought about buying my old man a ticket for the game tonight. £40? Seems very expensive to me. Be interesting to see what kind of crowd we get charging these prices.

    £40 is proper eye watering, I can't imagine Leeds would constitute a top catagory game either.

    Bah!

    Arsenal get alot of stick for charging £50 to watch them play teams like Chelsea if you compare the quality and cost of the squads that would be good value if we charge £40 for Leeds .

    Arsenal v Chelsea will cost you more than £50 a ticket

    Yes a lot more.

    But the point still stands. You could probably pay 10 pounds to watch Borussia Moenchengladbach vs. Bayern Munich which would certainly be a much higher quality game than us vs. Leeds, albeit you would probably be standing up.

    I have several friends with Arsenal season tickets and pay £50 for the games , i haven't seen them play Chelsea to be fair so you are probably right.
    I know they needed to pay extra for Bayern last season making it nearer £100 which is very bad.

    ...and at the other end of the scale I paid £25.20 for my two previous trips to the Emirates so they sure seem to have a funny old pricing strategy going on

    Ruddy; Whittaker, Martin (c), Turner, Olsson; Redmond, Tettey, Howson, Josh Murphy; Lafferty, Jerome.
    Rudd (GK), Johnson, Grabban, Hooper, Miquel, O'Neil, Odjidja.

    Murphy's first start, like the look of this.

    Well done Adams for making changes.

    Opposition:
    Silvestri, Byram, Bellusci, Pearce, Berardi, Austin, Bianchi, Mowatt, Adryan, Doukara, Antenucci
    S Taylor, Cooper, Warnock, Sloth, Cook, Morison, Sharp

    Morison to come off the bench and score against his old club?

    Like the look of the line up.

    I think we've been influenced by the success Rotherham had playing long. Nice to have that option but hope we don't punt it long every time just because we've got two big guys up front.

    Congratulations Josh Murphy on first league start. Well deserved.
