Next Saturday night will be fun. Norwich 5.15 ko 

I'll be watching.

DG is a player we will find very difficult to replace. Dack will also be a hell of a lot less fruitful. he might not be a Shearer but DG has that experience that these younguns can only wish for.

Danny Graham seems to be getting better with age, his intelligence and awareness of what’s going on around him is second to none in our squad

I think one of the Rotherham players painted my house last weekend - what went on there? 

Bah, even you lot cannot come unstuck against tripe like that lot...lets see how things pna out. I will say this though, yo0u'll be coming straight back down - just as we probably will...albeit billions richer.

Why do you think we would come straight back down 

[JPTSwindon]

Fantastic performance and result! ⚽️⚽️⚽️

Rodwell (calmness) and Travis (energy) have really helped us step up a level.

Dunno really...while you're top, its hardly like you have run way witht the eague - we did beat you after all and you didnt look owt. Do you think you have the quality to keep up? Decent manager but now he will have mi5 on him every game.

Can't think of many championship strikers I would take over him.

Living near Norwich and with a lot of mates that are Norwich fans I hope you give them an absolute hammering. I travelled up to Ewood with 3 of them in December and God that drive home was horrendous. 

Leeds 4-2 win. Goals in the 93rd and 96th minute.

Not at what he does anyway. Rhodesis Wednesdays best paid player but on the bench. DG is not a striker that will get you 20 goals a season but he will make sure we tick as a team. You can see his joy when anyone scores as he knows he has done his job.

Leeds will win the league. Quality to come back.  Izzy Brown and  Pat Bamford due now. Beradi and Dallas soon.

A lot of them are shitting it coming to Leeds for some reason. Their message boards are full of lily livered types.

You may well do and it is likely you'll go up as the two but i seriously think you'll be back down. Not a bad thing at all mind.

Abraham is the only one I would. Love DG, he is Rovers through and through. His celebration after scoring against Peterborough will live long in my memory.

Probably worried about the safety of their tractors.

If I see a single negative post tonight after that performance.....OUTSTANDING

Reed and Arma swapped wings constantly throughout, never gave Hull fullbacks a chance. Absolutely superb tactics from TM today.

also whenever we had the ball they were hugging the touchlines stretching their back 4, must have been watching them training and seen somthing of a weakness in them.

Bennetts passing was off and I still dont trust him as a one on one defender but his pressing was indicative of the team, superb in winning the corner for the 2nd goal and he was good on the ball too. 

This is the dilemma with Bennett most of his good work when he plays full back always come in offense but when it comes to defending Nyambe is a much safer bet, Bennett is ropey when it comes to the fundamentals of defending as a full back.

At home when you control possession (like today) you can get away with Bennett at full back and he will also help in attack but for example at Brentford next week I would much rather see the more solid Nyambe at full back. Bennett's best position is in one of the advanced wide roles but he is going to be getting in ahead of Reed or Armstrong? Not for me.

Will Leeds spent money if you go up? 

How does it work in terms of signings and who decided on who you sign and how much of say does Biesla have?

It all depends on their signings. The team that wins promotion doesn't  take  the field the next season, there's money to be spent!

For all the talk about Dacky, still pops up with an assist and almost walked through their defence to score. Lad is a maverick and it's pointless assessing his performances. I remember so many times for most of the game he's done nothing and then all of a sudden bangs one in or opens a team up. 

[CP Company Lad]

Radrizzani and Orta seem to do the deals. MB just does his stuff. If big IF Leeds go up then things must change.
