Derby County v Leeds United - Match Thread

DERBY COUNTY v LEEDS UNITED Championship #24

Sunday 29th December 2024, 1745 Pride Park

Much needed morale boosting victory against WBA on Thursday means the knives have been put back in the cutlery drawer but are still there in the left hand side tray.

In a game where there were several MotM performances, for once we held on and ground out a victory and not as per succumbing in the final minutes.

Now to Sunday and Leeds who have set the pace and sit on top of the league. This will be a tough ask which I’m looking at with some trepidation - still nothing ventured by being adventurous and bold, nothing gained.

Another stupid o’clock kick-off to satiate the TV companies but despite that we’re looking at a near capacity to top the 31,000 on Thursday.

Happy New Year to all the DCFCJA606 posters - let’s hope we get a late present on New Year’s Day.

Morning all🌞 and thanks for the MDT NNUH (I’m sure some wag can come up with an acronym from all that lot😁). Ennyhoo … yep, we’re certainly not invincible (guess that makes us ‘vincible’ ) and our away form has been poor until recently. Methinks a 1-1 is on the way … Piroe for us👍

Today is the day we need Brian Clough needling the Leeds team and Don Revie!
I paraphrase his usual abuse “I don’t know why the dirty bar stewards are bothering to turn up!?”
As usual though we turned up and won!
Fanny Lee perfecting his high board diving into the penalty area…with dirty Norman chasing him around, provoked beyond belief, what great entertainment!!!
Great days…great matches between Leeds and Derby!
Today’s prediction, 1 1 draw

Btw ,,, Franny Lee and Norman ‘bites yer legs’ … never met Francis Lee but met big Norm and the most charming and gentle of gentlemen (off the pitch!) … them were the days eh?😂

If you want a ticket, hurry, I understand that there are about 30/40 left.
Sell out at the Dirties away end 👏👏👏
