    Up to you to come get the ball off us then isnt it if you want to play too....<laugh>

    On a serious note, I dont think Leeds look that bad TBH. Squad looks decent enough to progress.

    AKCJ..I wont even say Green is the best keeper, but stats are stats mate <ok>

    haha and you ended up with Fat Paddy Kenny instead, a much better option...NOT!
    He went down like a sack of spuds for Nugents goal <party>

    Top 10 at best for Leeds.
    They were up for it the first 30 minutes as we always knew they would after their 6-0 thumping the week before but then pretty average 2nd half (as we were too)

    If we're going to get into all this "you told us x was ****" stuff, you all told us Bruce was ****, but he's the only defender that managed to keep Suarez quiet in his run of 13 goals in 7 games. <laugh>

    No one has ever claimed that Kenny is a better keeper, that is just one of the many stupid stupid decisions that warnock made when he was here.

    Your probably right, earlier in the season when we were scoring goals for fun (we were joint topscorers with you lot at one point) and went on that massive winning streak it looked like we were gonna do what Derby did and challenge for autos but then we dropped off and we were hoping to just be challenging for top 6, looks unlikely at the moment but you never know I guess. We won quite a few in a row before, no real reason we can't do it again in this very unpredictable league.

    I have it on good authority that Bruce spread Marmite on all exposed skin areas ... Luis merely lost his appetite ...

    That's the thing though, consistency. 46 is a lot of matches and to maintain high standards throughout the season is very tough. That's why few promoted teams surpass the two-points-a-game barrier. On the other hand, you see teams near the bottom play and you wonder why they're down there. Any team in this division can play well for a period. Keeping it up is the hard part. For instance, Derby strike me as a team that won't be able to last the distance.

    In short, from what I've seen of Leeds, they have the potential to make the play-offs - but I wouldn't put money on it.

    P.S. I just realised I used the terms "why they're down there", "Keeping it up" and "hard part" in short succession. This was entirely coincidental.
