Lovely tribute to him, hoping the detail about the shirts is true as well.
I hope the info is correct as well seeing as I posted it :shock:

... Not being picky or devisive by why not Eddie? Apart from Norman, now sadly passed, Eddie is the one true Leeds legend in terms of playing and assoccation with the club well past his playing career
I presume its because of the 72 cup final and the elbow dislocation but Eddie is my hero also.

Don't know how Brentford play away (presumably sit back and counter).

But with 2 up top and Aaronson and Stach presumably supporting would hope to see us going direct into the front 2 and trying to play off them.

Brentford rank really low for possession won in the final 3rd which suggests they don't press much so passing the ball between the cbs isn't going to do much seemingly

Also that Brentford bench seems to be largely a bunch of academy players.

They got lots of injuries?
