Team News
Leeds
Gnonto a slight doubt, otherwise a fully fit squad with Ampadu back and incredibly including Bamford and Wober
Swansea
Have a couple of injuries in Pedersen and Myles Peart-Harris. Delcroix on loan from Burnley returns to the starting XI
Swansea are in poor form with just 2 wins in 6 and are only six points off the relegation places.
The international break came at the right time and the return of our skipper will give us some much needed leadership on the pitch.
Going 3.1 with Piroe and James on the scoresheet.
Over to the best supporters on 606 with your score predictions and
line ups.
Can we go Live once again please Admin
Leeds Utd 2 Swansea City 2

On the 28th Feb, Opta calculated us a 98.7% chance of promotion. Ofcourse Leeds would do the 1.3 😅

It’s deja vu!
This time last year (April) I was on holiday at the same hotel in Lanzarote and our team started that dreadful “falling apart” and ruined my holiday. I honestly thought this time would be different - what an idiot I am! This team cannot handle the pressure - we know every team we play ups their game tenfold when playing us and most referees give us nothing and the opposition everything - but it is looking very much like last season all over again.
Having said that, why can’t our players take the ball off the toes of the opposition, like they do us?? We very seldom win the ball back when we’ve lost it, and we don’t seem to know how to protect the ball when we have it.
I thought Meslier was having a brilliant game - then came the inevitable mistake and they’d equalised.
I’ve 2 more games to watch whilst on this holiday - PLEASE don’t repeat last season - I can’t take play-offs and ultimate failure again, nor a miserable holiday.

Thanks for joining in everyone once again.
Had to take some time to calm down after that debacle and feeling very very disheartened.

Thanks Earl. Hard not to let it ruin our weekend (again) but hey ho!

My husband and I used to have a holiday place in Caleta, so I know the Bar Studs (play on words!) very well! It doesn’t seem to matter where we are in the world Leeds United always seem to ruin our holidays!
