Although MM didn’t have them bottom when he left I think the thought from Clarets comes from the upcoming fixtures, which could possibly see us bottom of the table, and the fact any new manager needs a couple of weeks to assess the squad before deciding who we need in January. Remember OC leaving after a week of the transfer window and us making a mess of things?

Really don’t want Dirty Leeds coming up.
Don’t mind them getting to Wembley and losing 1-0 to Bristol City or Shef. United with a late goal.

That's the worrying thing Hampstead, they seem to score lots of late goals, not concede them. But agreed , would be nice if that was the outcome.

Leeds are going up, I've never been surer. As I've mentioned before, when they drop points, the other teams in the main, also drop points, doing them a favour.

Bristol City seem to be the form team though so hope they can creep into the top 3-4 and provide more competition.

Their nearest rivals aren't consistent enough, that's the problem. They aren't great, but there's not 2 teams consistent enough to finish above them.

So the horse fiddlers were getting a bit giddy earlier this season, Mowbray was this, Dyche was that...

They’ve now lost more this season (11 in 32 games) than our Sean has at that level over 2 seasons- (10 in 92 games!).

I think this is the first weekend this season that Leeds nearest rivals have all won. Now, Leeds have a gimmie against Bolton on the 23rd - you can easily put your house on it, but I guess at least Norwich and Sheffield United have improved their GD with two 4-0 wins. Leeds will win their game in hand though, guaranteed. They'll go up due to not enough solid competition. People say the Championship is getting stronger - is it b0llocks.

No real stand out team in Championship this time is there.
I expected more from the likes of Villa, WBA, Stoke, Hull, Swansea and a few others.
I'm still hoping for a twist at the end of the season in that Leeds f**k up big time.

WBA are coming up on the rails they are definitely in with a shout of an automatic place,Stoke and Swansea have flopped big time even the play-offs are a long shot for either now.

Villa could struggle to get out of the Championship for a few seasons yet,their big chance was last year.

Agree on anyone but Leeds but they seem to dig results out when needed.

Tough run for them in March though,WBA,Bristol City and Sheff Utd to play in a short time span,hopefully this set of fixtures will derail their promotion bid.

Tough games on the horizon for the Blades,West Brom and Leeds away in the coming weeks,if they are still in the top 2 after the Leeds game they could stay the course.

You could say it’s getting stronger as those chasing automatic promotion can’t put a run of wins together?

You can't if you watch Championship football. I love to watch it as there's quite a lot of close matches. But the quality is decreasing. The reason why they aren't putting a run together is because they aren't good enough.

QPR v WBA on sky tonight for those of us without BT.

Could do with an away win here and put some pressure on Leeds.

It's the first time I have watched a game on the red button.
Is it always as bad as this? As said above its dreadful. Poor commentary, poor camera work, no replays, not even of goals.
It's like going back twenty years.
