3 points, comfortable win. Leicester on Friday is an exciting one. Could possibly be the team to burst there bubble.
Thanks, Earl. Electrifying first half. The drop off when Coops and Ayling came on was worrying. And why did DF not give Joseph a run out instead of Bamford?
The amount of work Ampadu gets through is amazing. Of the players who joined in the summer him and Rodon have been great. If we lose either of these to injury I will be worried.
And the other great news is QPR are holding Leicester. Only 87 mins to go...

Wow that's better. Great win Leeds. I was a bit worried about this game but thankfully we're back on track.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd love to know exactly what you saw in us that made you believe you had any reason whatsoever to worry? With Warnock now out of the door you were effectively playing a team that would seriously struggle to reach the top half of the League One table.
If you really wanted to you could have scored ten, and I'm not even kidding. I'm just grateful you opted for a pipe and slippers type of second half otherwise it could have been an ever longer afternoon.
Well done on the win, but this was the easiest game you'll play all season, until the return at ours anyway

I thought beforehand if Leeds played like they can they would win 3 nil but you know yourself as a fan you always worry about the unexpected and I have to confess I didn't have a great knowledge about Huddersfield except I knew they lost heavily midweek.
Usually against Leeds teams raise their game considerably and I was just worried we may find an inspired GK and dogged defence that hits us on the break but thankfully from a Leeds perspective we played like we can and punished Huddersfield.
I'm sure you are not happy with the way your team capitulated in the first half and you're probably right to think if Warnock was still your boss that wouldn't have happened but tbh Leeds on their day in this league are capable of doing that to most teams in the Championship with Summerville James Rutter and Piroe giving opposition defences a torid time I don't think you will be the only side Leeds score at least 4 against this season.

Oh yeah I know you've a good side, very capable of beating anyone at this level, but we've just shipped 4 goals for the 3rd time in 5 games and its 7 games since Warnock left. Your second paragraph only applies to us if he's in charge, as nobody else is getting a tune out of our squad.
I'm not trying to belittle your win, 3 points is 3 points when all said and done, but keep a little eye on us for the next few weeks and you'll see that you're just one of a number of clubs who will be filling their boots at our expense now. I wouldn't be taking much out of today's game if I was a Leeds fan as you won't play a worse side all season, honestly.

Fair enough I shall see what happens with your boys... one thing's for sure is that Eustace is free after Birmingham' s crazy decision to sack him but I doubt he'll be free for long so if results do carry on as they have for you.. there's a manager who I think could definitely turn your fortunes around if Moore can't cut it.

Eustace eems to be the popular choice amongst our lot, who it seems have all already had enough of Moore. I don't think the board will pull the trigger though, would be too embarrassing for them after trotting out their recent "PL in 3 years" nonsense. More chance we'll be in the Vanarama than any higher up than we already are!
Says it all that Cooper, Bamford and Ayling, three players who seem to be derided by your supporters on a weekly basis, would not only walk into our team, but would be our 3 best players instantly. We're so far away from having a squad to compete at this level its actually ridiculous when I think of the money that has come through this club in the past 6 years. You should enjoy days like today and the return fixture, as potential cup draws aside, I don't think we'll be playing one another for a long time after this season is done with.
Well done today and good luck for the rest of the season
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*

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.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
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👍

----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
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.

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.

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.
