We can do it today but expect bully tactics from Preston. Hope we battle but keep cool.

Struijk and James out today. Gnonto start, amps at centre back?
Definitely bully boy tactics today, would be nice to see a reffere actually do something about it for a change (and he owes us one after the match at their place)
Agree with Amps at CB and Willy in for James, but Ramazani must get some minutes today surely? 🤔

Chambers is ill.

The win against Boro might just be the tonic the team needed. Hopefully 3pts as Burnley are unlikely to slip up.

I've been really ill with a flu-bug this week, felt like death warmed-up on Thursday, still not feeling great, so I'm not attending ER today.

Busy weekend spoilt, :poo: happens!

Struijk will be opening his own range of physio rooms soon.

Preston are pretty depleted also, no reason why we shouldn't win this. It's Leeds at the end of the day.

Hope you get well soon 64 and a Leeds victory today might at least make you feel better.

Goal difference to Burnley is shrinking isn't it ? I hope those 4 goals the one linesman has robbed us of don't make a difference by the end of the season....

To be fair i think 99% of us would of done the same.
This is a Must win for us, no more slip ups.

DF needs to use his bench correctly to get the best out of the squad and of course if we are 2-0 in the 75 min we need to rest a couple of players. We have the bench we need to use it.
Leeds need a great summer 2026 with outgoings and incoming players
