Looking ahead

Recent results and performances have given us great cause for optimism but we need to temper this with a longer term view.
We have 15 cup finals ahead of us, an FA cup match that every player will want to play in, and 2 major internationals for our Welsh boyos, to decide if they play in the Euros later this year. Most of our games are on Sky, which means that the scheduling will not suit us. Like our early start at Plymouth this weekend. Who the fu©k came up with that one?
I think Farke is bedding in more of our subs with this picture in mind - our squad will be more physically and mentally challenged than most of the others, in the run up to the end of the season.
There is still a lot of running left in this race.

Dallas - sounded pretty negative in press conference

^^^

If he ever plays again for any club I'll be shocked.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Never realistic that he was going to play for us again.

Was wondering whether he'd want the opportunity to get one final run out, last game of the season, a few meaningless minutes when all is decided either way, pity minutes, for old times sake.
Chance to say goodbye and for the fans to show their love.
Not sure.

A week ago I thought it would be between us and Southampton and a 50/50 chance. Would come down to one side bottling it because the runs have been incredible.

But looking at the fixture list & the fact that Southampton haven't beaten a top half side since November (forget which poster pointed this out sorry), and their defeat to Bristol makes us favourites for me.

We will be favourite to win in every fixtures remaining this season. Obviously we probably won't but unless something drastic happens we will definitely be favourites before kick off.
Southampton won't be and I am surprised they are tonight tbh. West Brom at home look good value at 2/1. 11/10 West Brom with Draw no Bet.

Probably Salonika, often comes up with decent statistical insights.

It’s quite obvious that this season is going to the wire. We’ve done exceptionally well to get back into 2nd spot but there are very many twists and turns yet to come this season. A point tomorrow would be ok. A win would be absolutely fantastic.

Do you mean you think they'll score 3 or more goals?..

I’m guessing you think we’ll score at least 3 then. Fair play, let’s hope you’re right.

Betting odds Soton 5/4, WBA 2/1. but cos WBA don’t let that many goals in at home, I’ve a sneaking feeling this is a WBA win

Excellent responses, fellow posters. When we lose, I feel miserable because it feels like we are doomed to a life in the Championship. When we win, I get anxious Leeds are doing what the always do, dangling the carrot of hope before our eyes, only to find the cruellest method of snatching it away from us.
You can’t win!

Leeds United is the title of the club/team it doesn’t play football…mostly players, coaches and staff come from other clubs/teams without having precedent and experience of failing for Leeds or feeling miserable for missing out in past years!

Of course you are tight, NJS, but I will still be shaking like a leaf in a few hours time. How about you?
