What a great win it was for Leeds today. Bristol City were above Leeds in the table and have spent a fair bit of money recently on players. The win puts Leeds in the top 6.
Neil Warnock is still saying the squad is too small and as the season progresses I'm sure he will be proved right.
Lets hope that the news owners, if it happens, make funds available to buy players when the January transfer window opens.

Leeds beat Everton
Leeds have beaten Everton 2 -1 tonight in the Capital One Cup.
It's great to beat a top Premiership team. Radio 5 Live called it a "shock" ! It's not a shock to Leeds fans who still think of themselves as a top English team even though they are the the second tier.
We love you Leeds !

Leeds vs Notts Forest
I got my one nil to Forest prediction wrong and I'm obviously pleased that I did !
A good result for Leeds who won 2 - 1 thanks to goals from Bechio and Poleon. The game was watched by what we all hope will be the new owners of Leeds United or at least major investors.
Leeds played well in the first half and looked well in control. They played good football against an unbeaten team.
The win keeps Leeds in mid table but only a win away from the top 6.

Leeds !
At least we have one good team in Leeds. A team with the best players in England !
Unfortunately, it's not the football team. It's Leeds Rhinos. They have a great victory in France on Friday night against a good Catalans team. Leeds were 20 - 27 winners and are now in the semi finals.
It's a shame that Leeds United don't have the same commitment at the very top to invest and play at the highest level.
Leeds lost in mid week against Hull and the game against Notts Forest is going to be another tough one.
With Ross McCormack injured for 8 weeks I can't see Leeds getting a decent result. I predicted the result against Hull. My prediction against Forest is Leeds 0 - Forest 1.

Cardiff vs Leeds
My scoreline prediction nearly came true yesterday as Leeds lost 2 -1 in Cardiff. Leeds appear to have been outclassed in the second half but it's no surprise because Cardiff had spent £10 million on players during the summer. That sort of spending puts Leeds' to shame and shows why the club are badly in need of investment to enable them to compete in what is a very strong Championship this season.
Hull on Tuesday promises to be another tough game and Leeds could find themselves fighting in the lower half of the table before long rather than jostling for a play off place.

Cardiff game
Leeds go to Cardiff on Saturday after a 2 week break for international football.
Leeds have signed Michael Tonge from Stoke but Leeds are still suffering with injuries and are in need of team investment. It will be a tough game for Leeds and I predict a 0-2 for Cardiff...but I hope I am wrong !

Leeds vs Blackburn
I think it was a fair result yesterday at Elland Road. Both teams scored 3 goals in an entertaining game. It's always good to compare yourself against good teams and I count Blackburn as a good strong team. Only a few months ago they were a Premier League team and they still have Premier League budgets so it was a good test for Leeds.
Two goals down after 27 minutes things looked bad for Leeds but to their credit they came back strongly in the second half and with 10 minutes to go were winning 3 -2.
It always feels like 2 points lost on that situation but I think both managers will be happy with a draw. The result leaves Leeds in a good position in the league table but I still think Leeds are short of two good players. It's a long season and I'm not convinced that the squad is big enough for a sustainable title challenge.
