Fantastic win today
The Leeds boys certainly did Big Jack proud
RIP Jack

Simply huge win today. We only needed a point, but to keep going until the end shows we are a champion team.

With points in the bag we may not even need to win again this season. I would expect decent results against the two sides at the bottom even though they are fighting for their lives. We could be as good as up by the time we kick off

I admire your optimism and I hope that you are right.
But this is Leeds United that we are talking about and things don't ever work that way in our favour and I'm not counting my chickens just yet

Leeds United
Barnsley: Although down won't roll over for us
Derby: Still chasing a play off position
Charlton: Fighting Relegation

WBA
Fulham at home next up and then Huddersfield Town away are both very tough fixtures before they play QPR at home on the last day

Brentford
Preston N E at home is their tricky one
Stoke City away and Barnsley at home after that

It's all in Leeds' hands to secure the 4 points still required for promotion but I'd be surprised if it was as Plain Sailing as you thought.
I think that promotion places will still be up for grabs on the final day and I would hate for Leeds to need a result on the final day (Although I hope that you are correct)

fulham will get something at west brom.
leeds will beat Barnsley and derby

Leeds - Barnsley H, Derby A, Charlton H.

West Brom - Fulham H, Huddersfield A, QPR H.

Brentford - Preston H, Stoke A, Barnsley H.

Fulham - West Brom A, Sheffield Weds H, Wigan A.

Huge win today and what a massive time to score it. West Brom and Brentford will have been chomping at the bit up until that goal in the dying minutes. Pressure on them now as both play before us again.

Going to be a very interesting Tuesday and Wednesday watching them two games. A Brentford loss and we just need one point against Barnsley.

Still under the impression that Leeds and Brentford get automatic promotion. WBA didn’t look all that this week and a loss this weekend and Brentford win moves them down to third.

if derby lose at Cardiff on wednesday they will be 6 points out of the play offs with a poor goal difference so it will be over for them and in all honesty what i saw of them against WBA and Brentford they are not a good side anyway having to come out and play to win against us we should tear them a new one and hopefully we will.

lets go for the 3 wins now and go out in style with the title!

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sun Jul 12, 2020 9:59 pm  

Stoke bounced back well today and will be fighting relegation so won’t roll over for Brentford either. I have a sneaky feeling that WBA will end up 3rd and Brentford 2nd

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Mon Jul 13, 2020 7:16 am  

Another good win away from home against a pretty decent side.
That game could have gone either way with a draw not being too bad.
Pablo and White the difference between the two sides.
Thought Klich and Ayling could have done better along with Costa and Harrison who between them will take 24 million out of our coffers and still can`t cross a ball.
But a win is a win and a moment of class got us the 3 points.
Yes it is in our hands but so was last season.
Fingers crossed and prayer mats out for the next game.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Mon Jul 13, 2020 7:47 pm  

Given the options obviously it would be great to go up on Thursday, but it would be more satisfying to seal promotion whilst ending Derby's season

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Tue Jul 14, 2020 12:16 pm  

Looks like Kalvin will be out for the rest of the season.
Big blow that as he pretty much controls the midfield.
Likely to move Berrardi to the back 4 with White in midfield which I personally think is wrong.
White and Cooper have been solid at the back and should stay there.
Could Douglas do a job in midfield maybe or Dallas with Douglas at LB?
