Welcome to the FA Cup Matchday Thread and a trip to Wales for the Travelling Faithful, seems like Jesse is keen on a Cup run and is expected to field a relatively strong team for his 1st FA Cup Tie
Venue...Cardiff City Stadium...Date...8th Jan...Kick Off 1400hrs
Team News
Leeds United
Patrick Bamford resumed training this week but the game has come too quickly for the 29-year-old. Luis Sinisterra and Stuart Dallas are recovering well but are not ready for action just yet and Adam Forshaw has a hernia problem and will be missing for around two weeks.
New signing Maximilian Wober is in contention for his first start for the club, with either Liam Cooper, Robin Koch or Pascal Struijk set to miss out, depending on the position Jesse Marsch plays him.
Cardiff City
Callum Robinson, Cedric Kipre and Gavin Whyte have all suffered illness and will undoubtedly miss the fixture, along with Kion Etete who is still nursing a hamstring strain. Tom Sang is set to start at right-back with Mahlon Romeo missing out with a hamstring problem.
Rubin Colwill, Andy Rinomhota, Sheyi Ojo, Isaak Davies and Jaden Philogene-Bidace will all be hoping to be recalled to the side after making the substitutes’ bench last week.

Match Facts
Nowt relevant to put here but personally I want revenge for "That game" 21 yrs ago when Sam Hamman got right on my t1ts .
Both Teams not exactly firing on all cylinders in their respective leagues but in theory quality should win through
So Jesse wants his Cup Run hopefully he'll get it , always a feisty affair when we play this lot and I'm sure they'll be looking for a Prem Scalp but I think we might just be good enough to take them..........0-3 with Rodders getting 2 and Wee Willie the other
Over to You........................Predictions etc................................
Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!

Non league opposition if we beat Cardiff. We love our banana skins, don’t we?

Nice of ITV to give us a snippet of The Replacements there

I’d say I don’t want to see Llorente in a Leeds shirt again but those f@ckwits upstairs have extended his contract so we’re going to have to endure his incompetence for years to come

I'm hoping the club extended Llorente's contract to
try and add value to his transfer sale this month.
However, I know that's not the case. And he's so crap
we'll lose a significant amount of money if we keep
him or sell him.

I believe he is on a reduced salary. Perhaps this will make it easier to loan him out with a view to selling him on. We know there is a player there. Just not for us.
