Coventry 0 PNE 1 after 2 mins

Leeds v Leicester on Sky 8pm kick off

[ClaretTony]

I’m watching the first half hour of Bayer Leverkusen 04 v Mainz 05 waiting for Leeds v Leicester. Currently 1-1.

[ElectroClaret]

Top two in the Championship, should be a good game.
Hoping the foxes can quieten the ER crowd.

[jos]

Come on the Foxes

[TPClaret]

Connors Roberts gone to be a bench warmer in the championship

PNE 2 up

Everyone crying when we loaned him out. Can’t even get into a championship side

[ElectroClaret]

0-1 Leicester

[ClaretTony]

1-0 Leicester

[Buxtonclaret]

Come on Foxes!

I reckon he’ll get plenty of chances, but we’ll have to wait and see.

[ClaretTony]

Pawson gets out his yellow card but doesn’t look a foul to me

[fidelcastro]

I'll admit I'm watching the England versus Austria ladies match.

Austria just pulled one back to make it 2-1 to England.

The commentator said "equaliser"!!!

Where do they get these people from? He isn't even pretending to care!

[Buxtonclaret]

Spot on tackle that.

Just seen replay.
Giving a foul, never mind a card then was just wrong.

[Vegas Claret]

staggering stuff from Pawson, first class idiot

[beddie]

Pawson, my god what’s happened to simple refereeing.

[dougcollins]

Putting in a PL ref for these top Championship games never does anyone any favours.

[ElectroClaret]

Leeds squander a great chance.

[Buxtonclaret]

Should have had a corner then too!
Come on Leicester!

[Jeffbfc]

Prem ref at his best.
Big game and now a player on a yellow for nothing.

[TsarBomba]

This Leeds Leicester game is wild.

[Conroysleftfoot]

Both defences are rubbish. PL clubs will have a field day next season

[Sgt. Pepper]

(Dirty) Leeds v Leicester has been a cracking game so far. Brings back memories of some of our games last season.

[Vegas Claret]

Very high paced game

[ClaretTony]

Preston 3-0 up, Bobby Thomas own goal

[FCBurnley]

Meslier reminds me of Trafford.Decent shot stopper. Poor distribution and prone to the odd error

Leeds look nothing special

[beddie]

Leeds look nothing special

I think we’ll be swapping places though.

[Vegas Claret]

top 2, anyone concerned about us next season after watching this ? (I've not watched many other Championship games but I've not been impressed tbh)

[Quickenthetempo]

Both Leeds and Leicester look far better than we were last season.
Both want to attack with pace and purpose.

We looked good knocking it about round the back most weeks, but it's what happens in the opposition half that counts.

Hope you are joking
These are 2 bang average sides - no shots on target for leeds in 45 mins
Leicester relying on a clumsy header from a mistake

Leicester are on course to finish 10-15 points higher than us last season.

Shows how worse the championship is again this season
Leicester havent really had to rebuild - we started with a revamped side and drew a lot of games early doors

Not sure about the championship being worse.

Leicester have a super squad for this level. All very quick players.

I think you're forgetting/downplaying how good we were last season.

And you're right - it is what happens in the opposition half that counts which is why we scored the most goals in the league

Oh we scored plenty, but I never watched us thinking we were well coached in the final third. Around the back was superb. But we had never seen it before, I'm bored of it now all through the top 2 divisions.

Wow, you know people have a real downer with the club when they're picking fault with last seasons tactics.... I wonder if it was mentioned then how badly our forwards were being coached.

[jdrobbo]

I don’t like this argument about the quality of the Championship: it’s always a high standard. However, it’s the quality on show in the Premier League each and every progressive season, which is just getting greater. The difference is chasm-like.

This is a fabulous game but both teams would be slaughtered in the Premier League. Sure, the players on show tonight look high-calibre. But think on…Meslier looks a very competent goalkeeper. In the Premier League last season, he couldn’t catch a cold…Junior Firpo is on many Leeds fans’ most improved player last…yet list season (at a hugely higher level), he looked like a school child kicking a ball on a back street. It’s just a massive, massive step up.

Bored of what.

Leicester robbed.
Westergaard header, with Paka onside, comes back of the woodwork.
Defender plays it backwards, Paka nets and is then flagged offside.
Hinchcliffe making arguments about playing it deliberately or not, IRRELEVANT.
The last Leicester player to play the ball forward was Westergaard and Paka was onside at that moment.

[Buxtonclaret]

Have a song coming on, Leeds.

I didn’t understand the point Hinchcliffe was trying to make when it happened. Absolute gibberish.

[ClaretTony]

Hinchcliffe didnt have a clue it shouldn’t have been disallowed - was obvious it had been played by the defender

[jos]

Yet on he comes

[Buxtonclaret]

Wow!
Hell of a miss!

[ElectroClaret]

Wow!
Hell of a miss!

They've missed a few now, should be 2 or 3 up.

[Vegas Claret]

Wow!
Hell of a miss!

that's what 23 million quid gets you

[Conroysleftfoot]

On this showing Leeds are going to get eaten alive next season.
