Pre-Match Leeds (A) Sun 30th August

... this fixture was one of the games last season (...) total bore fest from begining to end...

Much the same can be said of the vast majority of end-of-season games.

In my view this is the first really stern test. We have had a brilliant start, but so far we have smashed an understrength championship side, demolished an under strength Premier league team that has finished the last two seasons in 17th place and hammered an under strength lower mid table Bundesliga side. All brilliant results, giving a huge sense of expectation for the season, and rightly so. This game will prove whether we have really progressed. 2-0 to the Bees if we have, 1-1 if we haven't?

I think it will provide a slightly better perspective but it's very early days and I don't think it will prove anything either way.

I'm expecting a very close game and it could go either way. If Leeds get an early goal then yes I think we will learn quite a lot about what we're made of.

A draw seems a likely outcome.

....I know that... but let's not go back there... that's gone....hopefully lessons have been learned.... tomorrows game will determine where we stand... tactics wise... when playing away in the PL.... let's see.

It was a very good point in our quest for Europe

“Lads, it’s Leeds”

I expect us to enter the field of play and batter the ****s.

KA is a class act, however the audio with regards to the questions being asked is awful as provided by the club. I haven't found one for this press conference yet, but those provided by Hayters or Beanyman are far superior. Also other clubs press conferences have much better audio. Why can't our club provide clear audio?

This is almost a "must win" game. I have never been a believer in "must win" games before the risk of relegation in late April

However a win here would really set-out our season. A win in a stadium that is a very tricky to win in would be a statement win

Win your home games and draw the aways was aways a mantra to promotion. And in the PL it is a guarantee of Champions' League qualification. So a win on Sunday sets-up right-up IMHO.

If we win by more than 2 goals then I am putting my house on a Top 4 finish.

Steady tiger!

We need to be beating teams like Leeds to get top 4

To those that have already travelled

I will be in the Kings Arms TW8 watching the game (with fellow Bees) and having Sunday lunch.

So facing a side that's spent a quarter of a billion pounds this summer isn't a 'stern test'? Give over.

 

[Beelieve!]

I can't sleep

Watch the replay of our game there last season

Well no, not really since the main newbies didn't play (Spurs fans reckon only three of the starting team would be starting in a week or so) and they were still the team that has finished 17th in the last two seasons. Unless you think the amount of money spent is the only measure of how good a team is?

Any spares for today ?

I have 1 Adult ticket, dont know if it can be transferred.

 

[Argus]

We've got a Wilson of our own to cancel him out, though.

You trying to jinx us with an own goal?!

If it’s not been uploaded to a phone yet it should be possible just by forwarding the email.
