I reckon 1-2 Leeds win.

Hopefully nick it in the end.

From the BBC's match thread:

Leeds United

• Victory would take Neil Warnock's team into the top three, and extend their unbeaten run in all competitions to six, having picked up 10 points out of 12.

• Despite finding the net in all 13 league and cup games, there has not been more than a one goal margin in any of their Championship outings.

• Leeds have committed more fouls (145) and mounted fewer goal attempts (86) than any other club in the division.

It's the last stat that I find very interesting. We have had the least attempts on goal, yet the number of goals we have scored is up with the highest in the division - we've got 18.

That suggests 1 in 5 attempts goes in, but then again if the BBC are using their own stats from their own threads, we all know that is completely bull

3-1, or 3-0. Im rarely wrong (recently)

Team:

Thom Kirwin‏@Thomkirwin

#lufc team Kenny, Peltier, Lees, Pearce, Austin, Becchio, White, Brown, Tonge, Diouf, Byram

So Austin and Tonge both get passed fit. Hope we are not risking them if they are not 100 percent

Hall on the bench. Looks like Diouf will support Becchio up tops by the look of things. We will have to wait and see how they settle. Happy with the selection though

Green & Norris are there to back them up, so nowt to worry about. Suspect both might get a runout if conditions suit, just to get them back in the saddle.

 

[666 & Elmo]

No one ever claimed that Eddie ilderton was a good ref

 

[Whitejock]

Is this an Argentinian 'hand of god' that might be seen favourably in at least one part of england?

 

[ellandback]

We are soo lucky, firstly Kennys fumble (Kissa, have a word) and Becchio's flying handball in his own area

 

[Whitejock]

Yesss Broonie! Dirty Leeds through & through! Love it.

 

[TC (Lovely Geezer)]

Deserved lead for the Yorkshire giants - where are your defenders hiding - shocking!!

 

[TC (Lovely Geezer)]

Think Warnock will be relieved you are only 1 down - they are all over you

 

[Whitejock]

Both teams should be down to 10 men. In fact, we should be down to 9!! Shocking referee (fortunately!).

 

[stonkin]

Shocking performance

 

[bigfatboab]

Haven't seen us play for quite a few weeks due to holidays and now I know why people say we are ****e. This team are simply woeful and how we have won any games this season is beyond me. Poor defending, poor goalkeeping and no midfield will lead only to defeat. I have had enough of them already and it's only half time. Unless players increase the effort by 100% and Warnock gets them playing, we are ****ed. Why on earth are Sheff Wed more up for this game? Shockingly poor by Leeds.
Edit: Brown should have been sent off for his woeful follow through and Diouf will go unless he calms down.
