If they win their game in hand, Leeds could be inside the top 6. :)


Didn't even see this thread this year.

Thank god we got a clean sheet, we need a few more. 4th home win in a row which is good.


Finally someone else that supports Leeds.
Kisnorbo wasn't in the squad at the weekend. I'm hoping he can force his way back in there. He's a rock at the back.

Heard a stat the other day that the Top 6 as they stand have not played each other yet, which means that in the coming weeks there are chances to gain ground on them. 8)

Very true. Such an exciting division this year and i expect the fight for promotion / playoffs / relegation to go right to the last matchday.
As with most teams, it will come down to injuries and suspensions etc..
Pretty happy with where we're at though, seeing we've had a sub-par start to the season.

Leeds were on TV yet again on Saturday morning in an away trip to Doncaster.
A clinical 3-0 win for the whites with goals from Danny Pugh, Ross McCormack (9 league goals in 10 games) and Tom Lees.

Now for a run of Tuesday, Saturday games for a couple of weeks, starting with a home game against Coventry early tomorrow morning.

Disappointing result this morning 1-1 draw against Coventry.

Coventry scoring in the 93rd minute to snatch a point!

Another win on the weekend 3-2 against Peterborough. Nearly threw it away again in the final minutes. Need to fix our defence because has been pretty ordinary so far.

Sitting 5th with a game in hand on the top 4 except West Ham.

Woke up early and listened to the commentary of the Coventry game. Pretty frustrating to concede soooo late. BUT, extended the unbeaten run to 6. It seems not many teams have beaten us this season, our own errors are costing us.

Apparently Rachubka was at fault for both. Hope he can get into some form with a tough run coming up.
All 3 goals were class too!
Pretty funny that we scored in Fergie time against Fergie Jnr :) :lol: 8)

Birmingham midweek away, then Cardiff on Sunday night (On Fox).
Unbeaten in 7, taking 17 points from a possible 21.

Come from behind 2-1 win over Burnley last night. Grayson made a couple of changes bringing in Darren O'Dea for Andy O'Brien and giving Lloyd Sam a start over the on-loan Danny Pugh. Robert Snodgrass scored both goals.

Bit of a strange story from Leeds over the last few days with Centre-Back Andy O'Brien refusing to play for the club ever again. :shock:

Club is releasing a statement during the week. Can't wait to hear what Ken Bates has to say about this.

Interesting column from Peter Lorimer on the subject. Also interesting forum banter.

And live on Foxtel should have been a bonus for Aussie Leeds fans

Good win and an excellent game from Snodgrass.

5th on the table now and another winnable game this week. Tracking along well.
