    The type of fixture that we won at Wembley for.

    An attendance predicted at 22,000.

    And plenty of rumours on social media that Leeds fans have bought tickets in the home end <whistle>

    Glad I won't have to walk to the Upper North for our H/T summary.

    I was going to the Valley before you left your pram <ok> …. I am told by Elf that it was a rather untidy pram <whistle>

    Hernandez & Bamford are two of the best offensive players in the league. It’s very hard to see Leeds NOT scoring on Saturday, which means that our Taylor-less strike force is going to have to step up.

    Leeds high temp pressing game is surely going to be bad news for the headless chicken Leko, who seems to want to beat all 11 opposition players before scoring himself <doh>

    I told you after his first game I wasn't impressed by Leko; plenty of skill but plays with his head down. Bowyer may be forced to play Bonne against his better judgment.

    This Leko must be poor if an alternative is a non-league player.

    When I saw him at first he was decent for 15 minutes, but he got clattered and lost his enthusiasm after that.

    Ian Wright was a non league player. Colin Powell played for Barnet when they were in the non league. I would take Steve Gallen's judgement.

    I give you regards the judgement of Gallen.

    However, it is a big step up, only time will tell.

    I would think a lot more fail than succeed when coming from non-league.

    Wasn't Charlie Austin playing for Poole Town before he joined Swindon and knocked us out of the L1 play-offs all by himself?... He was unplayable at the Valley that night!

    That was the point I was making to @DickPlumb ...for every diamond you find in non league, there are 99 lumps of coal.

    Doesn't matter who we pick, we're going to get caned.
    No Taylor, no chance.

    Birmingham and Wigan results are ample evidence of that.
