So we struggle against a low block as most teams do?
In that case we ain’t beating the so called home bankers Wolves and Burnley.
In fact, according to some posts, we’ll be lucky to get another win as we just don’t have the quality, are a newly promoted team and the opposition will make it very hard for us to score by keeping gaps in defence at a minimum and won’t lie down and let us score.

100% Cork. But worry not. Our recent form will miraculously turn around and we will win most of our remaining games.
That's how I see the real world.

Just keep dreaming we are Arsenal in white shirts, fellas. ?
Have a great day.

It was a tough watch without doubt, but as the Corkster alluded to, teams are going to come to ER and make it tough. No one now is gonna be playing expansive football. This time of the season is a gruelling bun fight, and I don't see the Wolves or Burnley games as banker wins. Every game is unique now, and setting points targets is pointless.

What if 38 is not enough? It's quite possible that will be the case. We just need to go out every game to get as much as we can, and assess our position after each round of games. No one is gonna help us, everyone is fighting for something, and we have to earn our survival on the pitch.

Hopefully, Corkey, both Wolves and Burnley will come at us. Pressure off already, down they will go for the win, as I imagine their travelling fan bases will want to know why?

Whether we can get a ball to the white sticky things is another matter, but those two games still represent our best opportunity, and if we fail to capitalise then we've nobody to blame but ourselves.

I see Sunderland with Xhaka are losing yet again (this time to Newcastle) .

If Leeds and Farke hadn't messed up our match vs Sunderland, we would be on 36 points and Sunderland would be on 37.

If we do go down, that will be the match that cost us more than any other.

Second best post of the day so far, Baz!

I can see the Burnley game at Elland Rd being a right ding dong of an affair.
They'll be pushing the ref to his limits. Even though they will probably be confirmed relegated, it will, without doubt, be their biggest game of the season.


Dirty it will be, and I, for one, hope we revert to our old name and do the same.

It might very well be our biggest and most important game of the season.

I really don't get what point you're trying to make with the post of the morning? Do you really think they're home bankers? Did you ever think they would be, or just that they "should" be?

I was saying that I'm fed up with excuse after excuse on why we are playing so poorly.
Maybe the manager and his tactics n team selection should be looked at, and not the same ole garbage that we are a newly promoted team and low blocks etc etc.
It's time the manager took accountability, because he never ever does.

Let him finish the season. If we stay up, he should be lauded and, please, not told he was lucky.
If we do go down, then he will very likely lose his job.
Condemnation before is unfair. His sole priority is only to keep us up for this first season.
He's brought us this far, give the bloke a chance.

Personally, I think that's very fair, OP.
If he does keep us up, I think he will be thanked by the board, and let go anyway, but he will deserve the respect and gratitude of every Leeds fan if indeed he does deliver.

We've got games upcoming against teams that generally don't play a low block, and aren't going to get into either the top 6 or bottom 3 - Bournemouth and Brighton, those I think are better chances of 3 points than Burnley or Wolves. Then there's the Old Trashyard shower, who've got top strikers but a dodgy defence (no Harry Maguire) , and won't park the bus at home, and Spuds, who go from heroes to zeroes every week, both of which we could get something out of.

I'm still thinking 40+ points is do-able, maybe more, and the 3 below us won't all manage that.

Let's face it; anything could happen, at any time, to any team, and probably will! It's gonna be an unpredictable free-for-all at the bottom! Florists by 3 at Spuds, who were excellent midweek! Mad!

If anyone believes the owners would have been happy finishing, say, 4th bottom and so low in the table, then think again.
I realize it's our first season back up, but the wheels have properly fallen off.

And I guarantee the owners will have looked at the way Sunderland have performed and the points they have gained.
As for lauding a manager who potentially has a team finishing 17th, well that stinks of a lack of ambition.
