Leeds Well & Truly in the Promotion Mix


It gets better and better for the Whites. The fightback against Middlesbrough was hugely important, and with so many results breaking in their favour, Leeds are suddenly in with a real promotion shout.
 
To stay in the mix, however, the away form has to be sorted out. The charge up the table has been coutesy of four home wins on the bounce and that away win in the derby game at Huddersfield. That result against Grayson's team was the exception that proved the rule, however, as defeats at Derby, Millwall and Burnley have shown.
 
Lose at Forest and Hull over the next seven days and all the recent good work will be undone. Leeds fans should enjoy their Christmas dinner, happy with the takeover and the home form, but this is no time for complacency: Forest would leapfrog Leeds should they win the Boxing Day game and Hull are already nine points clear of Old Big Gob's team.
 
An interesting week could see Leeds slip back or confirm themselves as contenders for outright promotion, never mind for the playoffs!

So I recall after 5 games had been played you announced 5 'certainties' for promotion ( 2 currently in the top 6)Of course this was an obvious 'wind up' to say that leeds were doomed to failure. Now you can see that the championship is wide open.
What a fool you have made of yourself!
You are the real 'old big gob'.

Millwall and Burnley was pre-takeover. So since the takeover we've only lost 1 game and that was away. Can be put down to coincidence.

Blowing bubbles is gay

Have to admire you and your blog. Crap u get from some people on this site yet sometimes, and it is sometimes, you actually make some sense!

Pure genius ... you must have known Forest would stuff them?

Can't see Leeds beating Hull, we (Watford) deservedly lost to the tigers recently but were comfortable winners against Forest last weekend. LUFC blow hot and cold but I'd say a bead can be drawn between the 4 clubs.

Warnock is a real character, what a shame he's still stuck in a tactical time warp.
