10 to go
Liverpool, City, Manure and Tottenham anything is a bonus
Fulham, Blades, Burnley, Baggies, Southampton and Brighton - we should be able to pick up plenty enough points to be confirmed safe with some to spare. 4 points from Fulham/Blades to give us more of a cushion before the run of 3 tough games would be lovely
Realistically only 18th still to play for - you would think that Sheff Utd and West Brom are gonners. Plus with the form of some below us it's hard to see the likes of Newcastle, Brighton and Southampton overhauling us
But this is Leeds we're talking about. Lose 6-0 to West Brom on the last day to go down on goal difference wouldn't surprise me
I would be most worried if I were Newcastle.Liverpool, City, Manure and Tottenham anything is a bonus

They'e got Sheff Utd at home, but also Brighton, Burnley and Fulham away - lose those and they're in the zone.
And their other six games are Liverpool, Man City, Arsenal, Spurs, Leicester and West Ham.

The sign of a Lees fan - always expect the worst lol
Anybody else seen the rumours about possible replacements for Bielsa should he choose not to extend his contact. Some big names being bandied about
Yeah saw that this morning linked to Max Allegri - hope Bielsa stays on for at least another year. Would love to see what he can achieve if we secure some new signings in the summer.Anybody else seen the rumours about possible replacements for Bielsa should he choose not to extend his contact.

I'm still getting used to seeing us in the Premier League table, and getting mentioned in the scores on TV and radio news!
Three years ago, if you had said to me that we would have just drawn 0-0 against Chelsea and felt a bit hard done by, I'd have said you were mad. I really hope we can get at least 1 game in with a home crowd before the end of the season, even if only 5,000 spectators are allowed in.

West Brom, last game of the season looks like the one. They'll have been relegated weeks before that, fat Sam will have walked and we'll sign off with another 5-0.Three years ago, if you had said to me that we would have just drawn 0-0 against Chelsea and felt a bit hard done by, I'd have said you were mad.

Rumours that Bamford and Ayling are being looked at for the England squad? I'd be surprised if Ayling got in as we're quite heavy in that area already but think he has some of the best progressive stats in Europe so who knows?
I think Paddy probably is worthy of an England call up. Less sure about Ayling but if Gareth Southgate thinks he is worthy of a call up then so be it. Good win last night although it could have been more comfortable - ought really to have been at least 2 up before they scored! But it's the 3 points that matters; think we're pretty much safe now and can start to think about how we consolidate and strengthen the squad for next season.
However, all overshadowed by the very sad news this morning of Peter Lorimer's passing. Not unexpected - and possibly a release for him and his family - but it's another of our legends gone; RIP Peter.

Gelhardt scored a hat-trick for the U-23s today and Greenwood scored a scorcher of a free-kick.
Hopefully they will get some game time before the end of the season. They look good but the U23 league they have been in this season is poor. Especially when you field a team like we did today.Next season will be a bigger test for them.
