Just reading the match report there, two goals up in the 90th minute and end up with a draw then it going to penalties. :flushed:

Great time see them win and go through.

Some drama. West Ham with 1 if not 2 goals disallowed in ET. Their keeper goes off with cramp in 116th minute. New keeper who no one has heard of saves first penalty in shootout. Funny stuff

Was fully convinced we were fucked when Tanaka missed that chance before halftime. That DCL clearance on the line was ridiculous. Huge result when missing Stach and Rodon. Tanaka finally getting a chance to show what he can do. Darlow still a bit of a bombscare though.

Means Spurs really need three wins from their last six games to overtake them now.

Beat Wolves this weekend and should be enough

Agreed

Leeds play Spurs in 3-4 weeks I think too. Leeds with Wolves, Burnley and West Ham to play too. Mid 40s could be realistic. And sure throw an FA Cup final into the mix!

More likely to scrape draws against half the bad teams to finish on 39 points and then get hammered by Chelsea in semi final :joy:

Farke deserves a lot of credit when you think about how open his Norwich teams were and how they used to get kicked around. Not the case with Leeds, big strong team that can play.

Ballsy move last night to play Tanaka, Aaranson and Okafor. Not what he normally does as that trio wouldn’t be known for their defensive work.

A win vs Wolves tomorrow almost guarantees survival. Spurs fans were going ballistic after the Utd game. Many bemoaning the fact Leeds have a defence built on Joe Rodon who they let go for £12m while they can’t defend. And now it comes out his evening Spurs want to take Karl Darlow on a free transfer this summer when his contract runs out. What a funny club they are.

Excellent result, they must surely be safe now.

Exceeded the point per game total with 5 games left. On course for the win total of 10 wins. First back to back wins all season. First clean sheet in a while. A comfortable win.

Yet, most Leeds fans refuse to believe their safe yet :joy:

Do most Leeds own a safe? Why would they talk to it?

Chelsea 3-0 down vs Brighton. They must be resting their star players ahead of the big showdown this weekend

Leicester relegated. Getting their comeuppance for cheating their way to promotion a couple of seasons back. They laughed at getting £8m for James Justin. He’s probably worth £20m+ at the moment.

And to top off the Leicester story, Michael Skubala who stood in as caretaker manager during the last relegation season and was the U21 manager for a while has just led Lincoln City to be League One champions :clap:

Another manager sacking with a team around the time they play Leeds. This is a very fun season
