Highlandwhite Matchday Thread ================================================
Kick off Boxing Night 8pm. Live on Sky Sports
Welcome to matchday 23 and a not so cold Thursday night away at Stoke.
Team News
Leeds.
Rodon a slight doubt, Struijk and Wober fully fit and ready to join the starting XI.
Stoke
Missing will be the influential Manhoef, Pearson also injured.
Stoke are in very poor form with only 2 points in the last 6 games and are averaging just one goal per game. However they nearly always seem to turn up against us at their ground.
We have to sort out this terrible away form and we have no better opportunity. Going for a 2.1 win with anyone but our strikers scoring
Over to the best supporters on 606 with your score predictions and line ups

Thanks Earl as usual and everyone...It's great to be top and I think tonight should do Piroe's confidence the world of good which bodes well for our next away fixture.

Hope to see many performances on the road like that and get on sort of run we saw January to March last year with a better outcome come May.

Leeds top of the Championship at the halfway point.
Over the last 20 seasons the team top at this stage has been automatically promoted 17 times.
But it’s Leeds though…..

Could have been up to 6. Not only the chances but the amount of time we got to the carline and flashed the ball across the box.
I thought Bogle was man of the match

75% possession. 20 shots, 5 on target. Is there any team that has beaten us for possession? Great win, but that wastefulness may come back to hurt us against better teams.

I think we have lost a few possession wise but win the games.

Looking at the state of play after all the Boxing day games I now think I was wrong about Burnley not getting automatically promoted because although I think they're not exactly that pleasing on the eye you just can't ignore they don't concede and by all accounts Shef Utd were not great yesterday and were slightly fortunate to beat Plymouth in their last home game who Wayne Rooney has turned into League one certainties at the half way stage.
As for us we really look unstoppable and if we add another forward in January, 100 points must be definitely on....All in all that heartbreaking play off final defeat is looking like a blessing in disguise as I think by the time we get promoted we will have a much better chance of surviving in the EPL with obvious new additions in the summer but for now we're looking "nailed on for top 2"!!!
