Highlandwhite Match Thread ==================================================
Saturday 2nd September 3pm. No live feeds as yet.
Apologies for interrupting all the complete madness and mayhem of the transfer window to bring you the next matchday thread and the first of quite a few local derbies this season, against a team who we have endured many memorable and some forgettable games. With our seventh game in 27 days Daniel Farke might be glad to see the international break coming up.
TEAM NEWS
LEEDS
17 players now departed as SinIsterra slithers off into the sunset. With Sam Byram and Dan James still injured and Poveda and Joseph just back in training expect Summerville and the impressive Shacks to start. Honestly losing touch of who is still with us and who has gone.
SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY
with 12 new signings over the summer and 2 more on deadline day the Team hasn't settled yet and supporters have been unhappy at the different formations every game. They will be missing midfielder Momo Duaby but seemingly no other injury concerns.
Wednesday have lost all 4 league games and like ourselves they got knocked out of the EFL Cup on penalties by a lower league team. If we can miraculously manage to score the first goal I would expect a comfortable win but it is Leeds we are taking about.
My prediction 3.1 win including a Piroe double.
Over to you all for predictions and line ups and finally in the customary manner.
Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!

Our home form is very poor,Piroe very quiet but Spence looked good

That's 3 very poor sides coming to ER, getting men behind the ball, going to be very hard work picking up points at home this season. Hardly troubled their keeper.

My gripe (well one of ‘em) is our inability to get shots on target. Stats show Weds had more on target than us. That’s shocking imo.

2 weeks to work on how to break teams down without a playmaker. We're hard to beat, we will pick up the odd point here and there but not enough for top 2 atm.
Preston who usually struggle for goals are top with newly promoted Ipswich 2nd. Big opportunity to gain points on Leicester, Norwich and Saints today

If you can’t break teams don’t you don’t get many points in this league. Awful. 6 points dropped at home -
And it’s only 2nd Sept

We have to learn to break down 5-4-1 teams because many will come and do what SW did today.
Piroue in the wrong place. Disappeared second half.
