Cardiff V Leeds tomorrow - both on 20 points and both won on the weekend so should be an interesting clash.

The posts on Owls forum sites non too compimentary about the club retaining Carvalhal at the end of last season. To be honest our game plan is far too predictable and we still lack a true play maker in the midfield.

Besides playing ok for the first 15 minutes in both halves we were very poor, probably the worst I have seen Leeds play. :(

On that performance we will be lucky to be a mid table side.

But well played to Wednesday :wink:

Another 1-2 loss at home for Leeds to Derby. Leeds must start dropping down the table if they don't starting getting positive results soon.

Unless there are mutiple send offs at once, is that possible?

Yes, in the first minute there was enough fouls to send off 4 players.
Then, the entire bench started abusing the ref - 7 more red card.
Then, 2 players started fighting each other - 2 red cards.


OR

It's should have, so because the ref didn't sent him off, you can get past the maximum of 4 on field players.

If Millwall matched their transfer record on our next 37 new signings. We still wouldn't have spent as much as sheff wed's foreign manager did on one foreign striker.

Why do they always sign managers who have already been sacked by a dozen other clubs?

Perhaps if they gave a promising young manager a chance, for a change, they would have more success?

Other clubs have done that and it has proven to be a success.

Unfortunately, I've just read that 'Big Sam' is favourite for the job, now I like him but everyone knows excatly how his teams will play now, so it would be hard for him to change much in the way they are going.

The fans have clearly had enough with the massive drop in home attendances .

Fat Sam is way down the list -

Phillips 4/1; Reid 6/1; Karanka 7/1; O'Shea 8/1; Ball 8/1; Keane 12/1; Moyes 12/1; Allardyce 12/1; Heckingbottom 16/1; Lambert 16/1; McCarthy 16/1; McCoist 20/1; McLeish 20/1; Bould 20/1.

Leeds 2 Middlesbrough 1 happy days :D

Great atmosphere 33K all singing :wink: The pre game TOGETHER sign by the crowd looked really good - physical game and the ref made a few mistakes for and against Leeds.

No happy return to Elland Road for Monk.

Away to Wolves next game - will be tough game.

sunderland v Millwall

Both teams would have won if they had a goalkeeper. Would have been 0-0 if they both had one.
