I’m not going to think about it, because I know if I do my Christmas joy will be f###ed 😩😂😂

dave-in-leeds.bsky.social•66 days ago

None 🤪

macca-93.bsky.social•66 days ago

If we were one of the other 2 clubs we’d be adamant the team playing Derby & Stoke would walk both games & go top….but it’s us playing those games & you have to factor in Leedsiness

vimfuego18.bsky.social•66 days ago

I’m super confident we’ll beat Stoke…Or at least I’m trying to be.😀
Imo it’s a very important moment in our season.
Beat Stoke & we’ll beat Derby.And begin to wonder what all the fuss was about. If we can’t beat Stoke,then I think our away form is certainly affecting the players.

tiddydave.bsky.social•66 days ago

That’s where I am, don’t see how anything but a win at Stoke can be seen as anything but a very worrying issue we have

vimfuego18.bsky.social•66 days ago

I’m really glad Amps is back. He’s a better leader than Struijk. I think that’s one thing we have missed. Away from home definitely.

linguafrancis.bsky.social•66 days ago

It’s another point in the bank for us.

tiddydave.bsky.social•66 days ago

Don’t.
Stoke is a litmus test for us imo. Fail to win that game & I’ll find it hard to believe we’ll get promoted

linguafrancis.bsky.social•66 days ago

A run of three or four away wins could actually let us open up a gap.

I’m not hugely confident though.

dagobahwhite.bsky.social•66 days ago

I’m calling it now, we WILL beat Stoke. Farke WILL beat the awayday hoodoo but sadly we then go on to lose to Derby, cos Leeds 😩

leedsinshetland.bsky.social•66 days ago

The only way we fuck up, is if we continue to waste a high % of our goal chances.

tazker.bsky.social•66 days ago

This seems a very Leedsy scenario. Despite Blades and Burnley playing each other, it's totally conceivable that both will finish this run of games above us.

tiddydave.bsky.social•66 days ago

For confidence going into the rest of the season, we need to get at least 4 points from these next two games. Anything else and give the momentum to our rivals

tiddydave.bsky.social•66 days ago

I actually think this Stoke game on Boxing Day is the most important game of the season so far!

twohandsgaz.bsky.social•66 days ago

I have to admit to being more than slightly concerned about the next few games. If we continue our very poor away form then i foresee a potential playoff scenario again. That is something i really dont want to think about!!

actiondan.bsky.social•66 days ago

I agree this one is vital for our season, on paper it’s horrible, Boxing Day away in Stoke and 8pm kick off 🤷‍♂️ we’ll already know the other results. Farke has to get this one right and the team have to step up and start to change our away wobbles

millie19912.bsky.social•66 days ago

I'm liking this as I agree. Not at all liking that I agree...

tiddydave.bsky.social•66 days ago

As you say, not great having a key away game over Christmas for Leeds is it!!

millie19912.bsky.social•66 days ago

Nope. To look on the brightside at least it isn't a 12:30 kick off...!!

dav1dman.bsky.social•66 days ago

All I know is that somehow both Sheff U and Burnley will manage to both beat each other.

shubdo.bsky.social•66 days ago

That's the Leeds pessimism I'm here for! 🫣😂

tiddydave.bsky.social•66 days ago

It’s ingrained into our souls!

iamduncan.bsky.social•66 days ago

How many times in recent years have we taken advantage of a situation. We could have won the league by about 10 points last year if only we didn't loose when the others did.

dogfacekilla.bsky.social•66 days ago

After the incredible run were we breached the gap, it was likely unsustainable and draws / losses more likely. I don’t see an Ipswich or Lestah emerging as very similar points for top 4, only Sheff U with better current form

arcticreviews.bsky.social•66 days ago

This is the part of the season where squad depth should play a part. I think Sheff United will be top 2 provided Hamer stays fit for long enough.

dogfacekilla.bsky.social•66 days ago

I think the same, they were bang average against us mind

arcticreviews.bsky.social•66 days ago

That was down to Wilder's selection - in the form they're in now he'd have been a bit more expansive probably. But I don't think anyone will come to bang at ER now - Sunderland are a counter attacking side by default, everyone else will sit in a mid/low block.

tg-2015.bsky.social•66 days ago

Bus will be parked by every side coming to ER, it’s been that way for most teams already but our home form means teams will be coming hoping to avoid a hiding

iamduncan.bsky.social•66 days ago

I think we can get second as we are, but all this talk of picking up points because others will be dropping them has not worked in the last few years or managers.

dogfacekilla.bsky.social•66 days ago

Agreed, We started last season as a bit of a mess and built momentum, we started better this year and the team has definitely matured and is more rounded so not having to rely as much on individual brilliance, I think we go up and can do so as champions, Sheff flat track bullies but will hit probs

millie19912.bsky.social•66 days ago

Our away form is questionable. Our Christmas form is always questionable. 2 away games over Christmas - I mean what could possibly go wrong......

Every chance #lufc
