Highlandwhite Match Thread
===================================================
Welcome to the final match thread of the season and most probably our last in the Premier league for a while. Kick off Sunday 4.30.
Optimism is in very short supply as realism takes over and would be a monumental miracle if results go in our favour.
Team news.
Leeds
On top of the usual injury list Bamford is a doubt but Rodrigo has been training and should be ok. On a positive note Junior Firpo is still suspended.
Spurs
Line up will be Harry Kane (with his customary goal) + 10 others.
Spurs supporters don't want to win to avoid playing in the Euro conference league, Leeds must win. What can possibly go wrong
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the match day threads and special thanks to Shaun for stepping in when needed. Hopefully we will all keep the memory of our main man Peter Legge aka highlandwhite alive for years to come, no matter what division we are in.
So for the last time I'll try again to predict a victory for us and go 4.3 . Kane hat trick and 4 og's.
Over to you all for predictions and line ups and finally in the customary manner.
Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!

Some fans are embarrassing. They blame the players but they didn’t put that team out today.
Big Sam has to own that result!

I'm with Dan on the Square Ball, let us live in the Championship and win it every season but refuse
to go up. Corrupt fcking league. Everton are the
OJ Simpson of football. Smug cheating pr 1 kz.

The PL has been a bit of a disappointment all in all. When we were doing well the stadiums were closed. Getting rid of Bielsa seemed to suck the fun out of it.
For me anyway.

What are the chances that Everton get a 12 point deduction and Leicester stay up?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope so!

I am kind of relieved. Last we will see of that fat feck McKennie for one. I haven't enjoyed a lot of this season and I don't want to watch us losing week in week out.

He had a decent game today to be fair. Apart from the first goal where he lost the ball.

There was a time when Leeds and Villa were heading on a similar path. In fact we finished ahead of them in our first season back and the time of Gerrards's sacking we wrere above them in the league.
They acted decisively got rid and got in Emery backed up by signing players for the here and now over the last few years. They don't look back qualify for Europe and can now think about signing players with potential following their own model rather than a Leicester type one.
Even worse, if talk is to believed, that we were going to approach Emery but Victor (him again) wanted us to stick with Marsch.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If we stuck with Marsch, we'd be playing Luton next season. We were never this bad under him ...... Sacked Jesse for Javi and Sam.

I agree in that JM wasn't as bad as Javi or Sam.
Terrible decisions by management, hence we are where we are.

Don't agree one little bit. Watch him not only on the ball but off it. Zero effort for the cause.

McKennie one of the laziest footballers ever. Loses the ball and last man to chase back. To think we let Klich go, a player that would have bled for us, and we have been playing this man consistently who has not put in one decent shift.

Earl,
It's been a terrible season for you. First of all your beloved Blues get tanked by a team that just a couple of years ago was playing at the beloved "Hen run". Now your darling Leeds self-implodes and will play(?) in the Championship next season. Hope you get all the help that you need.
