The officiating isn't up to much from what I've seen, that could do with looking at. We (LUFC) have been down here far too long.....some reasons we all know full well......money! and we just wasn't good enough. We seem to have it right at last, promotion seems doable.....maybe!! The whole glitter of the prem is what most want, but behind the glitter is the old beast......money, we have to buy our safety or success, not something what happens in these lower leagues.....to a degree, playing football for the pure enjoyment of playing football, how novel! Just to finish btw we all get caught up in it.
You have a great chance of being in the mix, as much as any of the top ten, I hope you make it, behind us of course!

I fancied Leeds for automatic before the season began, nothing i saw of your team on Friday made me change my opinion. Moved the ball quickly and with purpose, defended high up the pitch and finished clinically. You and Norwich nailed on for automatic.

We have one of the best squads in the division, but unfortunately we have a manager who hasn't a clue how to deploy it.

We migt have still been in the cup had he not replaced the centre forward with a centre half and then replaced the same centre half for another centre half, and used all the subs knowing the game might go into extra time.
That is not learning the ropes.
That is just plain feckin dumb.

Gayle the most lethal striker in division plays for us! Played on the wing though in a stupid position along with a useless Robson Kanu and a feckwit formation of 4-3-3 with Livermore and 38 year old Barry. Clueless Moore is responsible but to be fair Leeds were excellent - intensity - pacy - full of energy and Hernández and Roberts both excellent.

Do you remember Baggies not too long ago, like in seasons 89-90 & 93-94, we were both involved in relegation scraps in this league (which was the original Second Division in those days of course).
Appreciate your position eh lads, your club are in a far better position than the majority of other clubs, who would love to be where you are now. Ok rante over. ;D
