Kick off 12.30pm, No Live links as yet but on Talksport 2

Welcome to the Matchday thread as we welcome our near neighbours to Elland Road.
Huddersfield supporters feel free to join in.

Team news
LEEDS
No new injuries but big decisions to be made by Daniel Farke after Wednesdays disjointed and disappointing performance.
HUDDERSFIELD.
Missing Turton, Jones and Danny Ward, Tasamu is a doubt.

We've had the Good and the Bad this week, let's hope if its Ugly it's an ugly win. We're unbeaten at home and Huddersfield have the 2nd worst defensive record this season but it's a local derby and our inconsistency has been alarming.

Will go for a 2.1 win with Rutter on the scoresheet.
Over to you all for predictions and line ups and finally in the customary manner.

Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!

Oh and Highland....I hope you enjoyed that one up there. Always looked forward to the threads when we played one another in days gone by and it feels awfully sad to not to see your name authoring these articles anymore*





No offence, Earl

No offence taken Champers. The guy is a legend in here and will never be replaced.
Good luck for the rest of the season and hope your fortunes turn.

Ipswich come from behind and score another 3 at home. Are we playing for 2nd or just top 6? It's a long way to catch them atm.

Playing for top 6 Shaun. Hoping for 2nd ATM.

Can't see anyone catching Leicester. They were a
bona fide Prem team/squad that effed up. Whereas
we were not a Prem level squad. We were lucky.
But, that luck ran out. We're definitely a top 6 team.
Quality-wise. Probably top 2 team. Worthy of third.

Yep good point. My take is we’e playing to cement top 6.

Ipswich seem to be able to consistently play at the right level to beat 2 thirds of the Championship and we just have to hope the top 7 or 8 sides including us can beat them, draw them nearer to us and knock them off their perch.

All credit to them though and their manager who's carried on from last season but it only takes a few injuries and suspensions for their form to suffer so it's not time to worry yet plus the pressure of leading with others breathing down your neck will factor into it.

If we're still 9 points behind them come Mid March then I'll concede we'll have to settle for the play-offs but not yet and if we beat Leicester next week and I think Leicester then play Ipswich so if we keep up that first 45 minutes form I'll be surprised if we haven't got the gap down to 6 points by December so still all to play for.

Yep, can see where you’re coming from Macca👍

If we don't get top 2 with our squad it's a huge failure.

It's that simple for me.

Tend to agree but if we win the play-offs with a day out at Wembley, that’ll not be too shabby👍😁

Ipswich won't maintain their form all season. Expected them to be up there, but they don't rotate at all. Injuries will take their toll eventually.

posted on 29/10/23

Do we rotate?

Stoke is what happens when we do or the second half is, people talk about the depth of out bench but make a few changes, three, four maybe and we are significantly weaker.
One thing to rotate another to do so and maintain any semblance of a quality outfit.
