    Blackburn beat Leeds (who surprisingly were live on tv) and are up to 5th. Impressive for a newly promoted side who've spent very little money. Mowbray doing a very good job there.

    Leeds on Sky now for the 9th time in their opening 17 games!

    And they're apparently on Sky twice more before the end of this month. Pathetic from sky.

    Sky doing their bit to help Leeds back to the premiership.
    It's little guys like us that they hate.

    Luton 4 nil up over Plymouth, Bradford winning at Posh and Sunderland nil nil against Wycombe

    Somehow you know that Sunderland will score before the end, they seem to have a knack of grinding out victories

    Surprisingly both the Sunderland and Posh games finished 1-1

    Somehow we're still in the top 6, on GD

    But 4 points behind the team in 5th.
    6 points required from Bristol Rovers and Burton

    The top 5 are threatening to pull away.

    So tight for 6th though, 5 teams all on 28 points.

    Another red card for Southend today, not like when Chris Powell was our manager!

    Great game on now, Villa 2 up, Leeds have come storming back to 2-2.

    I'm just surprised Sky decided to put Leeds on tv.

    Had a feeling that was going to happen... Aston Villa went proper Charlton the way they got deeper and deeper as that half went on

    What an away day for Leeds, 95th minute winner and absolute chaos in the away end.

    Probably not a popular opinion but i hope they get back to the premier league. Rather have a big club with good support up there than sides like Huddersfield and Fulham.

    Not to mention be great to have Biesla in the top flight

    Leeds also had a few home grown players so good for them. Only saw the second half and very enjoyable.

    Villa seem to ship quite a few goals and John Terry is the coach.

    Having Leeds back in the Premier League will be fantastic, as already mentioned it’s far better than having Huddersfield, Fulham, Palace, Watford etc.

    They’re a huge club that has potential to regain their previous status of pushing for that top 6 in a few years if they are backed well and run well.

    As also mentioned, they do have good young players coming through and Jack Clarke at 18 is some talent, he’s going to go far in the game if he continues to do well and having Bielsa is massive for his development.

    We have a load of injuries, but Leeds also have a whole load as well so are likely to go and get better, as we hopefully do too when all the players come back.

    This definitely won’t be a popular opinion but as mentioned the other day about Aiden White, my Dad is a Leeds supporter so I follow them closely as well. I hope they win the league.

    Bielsas teams are known to tire late in the season, hardly surprising given the high press style they play. But that could be crucial to the promotion race. Will be interesting to see if Leeds fade come the run in

    Fleetwood are having a tough time and some of their staff have reverted to type .. Jed Evans sent off and the lovely Joey Barton red carded after an injury time altercation at Bristol Rovers .. what's that about a leopard and his spots ???

    The record-breaking 38,257th ticket was purchased from the Stadium of Light ticket office on Wednesday afternoon, by Andrew Lee, who will be welcomed onto the pitch at half-time on Boxing Day and join the club's directors after the game.
