I’ll be delighted for the lad if he scores the goal that wins the league for us, stranger things have happened.

As for Rothwell, that's your opinion!
Byram is good in the air from set pieces but unlikely to start much between now and the end of the season.
Firpo is decent as well.

I'm going to miss the game today, or at least the first half, so will be relying on MOT for updates

It just gives Farke more options.

Plus we don't know who might get injured in the coming games so we might need Paddy, especially as there are potentially 11 games remaining this season.

Due to the really good home results the last two season (so far) is there are certain amount of complacency or apathy from our fans towards today's game ?

The reason I ask is my own feelings because I'm not as excited as probably I should be given it's an absolutely crucial match if we're to remain in the automatic promotion places.

Actually feel a bit more up for it now I've got that of my chest :)

It almost feels as though we are potentially sleepwalking towards the play offs.

There once was a lad name of Bamford
Onto the Elland Road pitch he Scampered
But one small piece of Grass (Graaarse if your posh)
Put Patrick on his Arse

Weren’t you listening to DF’s war cry to the fans ? Get behind the team and we’re guaranteed promotion 💯. Cmon man, give your head a shake 😁

Patrick Bamford returned with a cheer,
For Leeds, he made it quite clear.
With three in the net,
Twas not a night to forget
His hat-trick brought joy far and near!

Brilliant, losing him last season at this point cost us.

Read various Swansea forums and the prevailing mood is we will thrash them since we are the best team in the league.

The most optimistic are even cautious about thinking the result would be a draw.

Marvin the Paranoid Android in HGTG who is perpetually pessimistic and gloomy is more happy than these Swansea fans... they would give Leeds fans a good run for their money in the doom and gloom stakes
