God I hope they don't play the low block and we have a relatively open game. Those games last season against them were dreadful affairs.Irish Ian wrote: ↑Wed Aug 26, 2026 5:34 pm Tricky test for Leeds this week against a free scoring Brentford side managed by Leeds fans arch pundit enemy Keef Andrews
Keef cut his teef on defending set pieces so Leeds will encounter a side well schooled in the art of the low block.
Despite the last encounter producing a mind numbing 0-0 somehow Sky tv still rate this game worthy of rescheduling to ensure our Sunday afternoon slumber will not be interrupted by anything slightly resembling a football match.

Re: Brentford pre match chat
Brentford is a good side. But I wouldn't put too much into their wins. They beat a heavily rotated Spurs at home. And then went and beat Championship side Birmingham in a cup match on the road. These were not wholly unexpected results in either match.
I expect Leeds to give Brentford an extremely difficult match at Elland Road on Sunday. And I think Leeds will take all three points!

Re: Brentford pre match chat
I'm with Mrs OB. Always used to happen to me in the kop as a teenager. I'd be there at my lovely spot at 1pm and at 2.55 some tall git wouid arrive and plonk himself in front of me. So, seating in the West stand it was for me after years of that. Now though, I'm corporate or nothing. I like my comforts in my older yearsOrange Box wrote: ↑Wed Aug 26, 2026 5:41 pm No, Mrs OB wouldn’t be able to see when people stand up (due to limited tallness) so we’re all in the East Stand. My son is in corporate, only way he could get a ticket.

I'm missing our first home game in a very long time, as we are travelling up to Seahouses on Sunday.Barlow Boy wrote: ↑Wed Aug 26, 2026 12:09 pm Season Ticket downloaded, looking forward to it.
Have we got a few from here going on Sunday?
Thank you the World Cup & SKY TV.

Depends on our travelling plans & timing of course.eastyorkshirewhite wrote: ↑Thu Aug 27, 2026 10:34 am sure you would be able to find a pub that will be showing it.
If not, I can watch the whole game on LUTV from Monday onwards.
The first time I've missed an opening home game in nearly thirty years.

Gurj is a season-ticket holder in the South Stand, does the majority of away games. Easy for my old pal who lives in Birmingham.

Last time they came to Elland Rd they shut up shop and played on the break.
Can't see anything different to be honest, some in the prediction thread have down for a 2-0 victory, this would be amazing if it happens.
Tough game against a well organised side.
