Wednesday have a perfectly legitimate goal ruled offside to go 2-0 up against Leeds

They should be 4-0 up.


Yes the linesman should be fired. Abysmal decision.
2-0 and deservedly so

First time I've seen Leeds. They look utter shite.
Always felt they might fall away.

No no we should be quaking in our boots just thinking about these top 6 teams in the division.

Agent Bannan hits the post. Leeds have been poor in this match.

Can't believe Leeds were promoted last week (according to their fans and the media) and yet we're now only a point behind them.

Wednesday could, and probably should, have had 5. Leeds were bumsmell.

Just watched that now we've got the Championship back on Bein. Impressed with Wednesday but just shows how wide open for the taking this division is this season.

Leeds were diabolical and 3-0 didn't flatter Wednesday at all. To paraphrase FDR, there is nothing to fear this year except fear itself.

Can't say I've heard any such claims but then again I live just over the border from West Yorkshire.

Just seen on Twitter that as a result of the police brutality going on in Barcelona right now that the Barcelona match is to be played behind closed doors this afternoon.

I even thought that last year to be honest. We should have had enough with good management to go up or at the very least challenging for a play off spot. We have depth, talent and resources should we need it in January (FFP permitting). But we should be in with a shout come the end and if we are not it will our own fault.

I'm beginning to think (hope?) that the so far very impressive Gerald Appleyard will act as a wise insurance against the team slipping in attitude and approach when there is a prize to play for.

In fact, all of the additions this summer are what I would look at as good characters and professionals. I think we will be much, much tougher mentally and my god it's about time.

I haven't watched a lot of PL this season, and not meaning to get ahead of things or but looking at how much a side like Everton has lashed out in recent windows and really how average they are, what will it take for us to survive and become relevant? It feels like a scary number given how much bog standard players cost these days.
