It's 11 points off 5th place and that's too much.
Brighton in 6 th are 6 points ahead but from them down to mill wall only 8 points.
My point is there's 10 teams between Brighton and mill wall. we would have to be the 1 in 10 to show form.
That's a massive ask and I wouldn't put much money on that I'm afraid. especially with up and coming fixtures.
Never say never but it's getting much tougher now and league taking shape. , we will pay penalty for the awful performances over last few months but I think deep down we know we are championship for another season. shrew leeds

I think we will win 4 out of the next 6 games and if we can get something out of Leicester and palace we will be in a good position

We Need A Few Changes If We Want To Get Promotion To The Premier League

New Manager - Ningel Atkins or Paolo Di Canio

New Centre Midfielder - Stephan Ireland

New Winger - Max Gradel or Shaun Wright Phillips

Maybe if Ningel Atkins gets the job then he could bring in either or both of Rickie Lambert and Billy Sharp which would be great for us!

MOT!

The manager choices I agree,

but stephen ireland is shot, he ain't good enough we don't want has beens who think they are owed a career.

gradel won't come back and like ireland, wright phillips is finished aswell.
get out of 5 years ago we need to plan forward not harp back.

"Paint it white" this sounds like a great idea if you are attending the huddersfield game you can get a top for 10pounds, would be great to see 30+ white tops bouncing at elland road. Agree if you are going! i'm going to try my best to make itt!

Believable13 Unbelievable3

Yeah can't wait! I do feel we still have a massive chance of reaching playoffs. Have you seen the fixtures, from what I can see there is only 3 hard games which I would settle for a draw in crystal palalace, Leicester and Watford. The rest seem like 3 pointers if we play well. If we fail to make playoffs, I would not bother extending Neil's contract as he has had a lot of money given to him to get a whole new squad compared to other managers and to be honest I don't want to spend another season watching awful football in the championship however if his tactics get us up he is a hero. That's football for you may be fickle at times but as long as we MOT together we will see leeds win

People just to remind you to vote for Sam Bryam in the metri football league goal of 2012. Might not be the best but we would surely smash it if we all voted for him. You can find it on the LUFC official site. Sorry ed this ain't a rumour but its for a born and bred white.

He has my vote!

Got mine as well

Already voted for him.

The media are killing Leeds United with all this new ownership talk which will distract the players and management. I say to all who are connected with Leeds e. g. Players, Management and fans ignore the media circus and carry giving support to our club and fill the seats. We all have to realise now that when Elland Road is packed it gives the team a boost. let's make it our fortress again and get out of this league once and for all. I think we can do it with the team we have but would make one change Varney out and Diof in.

MOT

Believable6 Unbelievable7

Varney? Seriously? other than his misses of late, he has been our best performer! actually giving some effort to the cause!

Diouf would be a great impact player to slow the game down!

Agree11 Disagree6

Varneys been class! you joking me! he plays well and you still want to drop him, why are some of our fans so fickle and short-sighted

Agree9 Disagree3

Wouldn't it be better for the current owners to speak to the media to dispel these rumours or confirm them, then at least everyone knows where they stand.

Agree9 Disagree1

Yeah but his misses are points?

Agree5 Disagree3

Agree Diouf for varney!

I think warnock should stay on for one more season and write this season off, he was promised this and that and its never materialised, if certain things like funds for quality players can be agreed and stuck to let's all stick together for another big go next season, Neil knows the players there now. So if your reading Neil which you probably aren't stick with us and we'll get behind you and do our part and get behind you and your team.

Think we require some much needed patience and humility toward Warnock. YES the team is playing some of the most unnatractive football I've ever seen and inconsitency is a given with Leeds, but we are one of in the most competetive and closley fought leagues around. Little support has been given to him and many a manager would have walked with what I hear chanted from the stands. We may be leeds, but we don't qualify to assume domination over a league whom teams were vying for a play off spot have invested much more heavily than ourselves and for all our supposed fantastic support is embarrsing to see "smaller clubs" bringing in bigger crowds at home than us. it is time for some optimism and belief in a man who has done this time and time again, its not like we have much to lose this season now at this stage is it? 6 points from the play offs is a reasonable position and some good form in the closing stages could see us up there.

Once again Duncan castles talkin rubbish, he says Pearson is close to a takeover at Leeds utd and could happen as early as Friday, only for Pearson to come out today and say he's had no contact with Leeds, that man should be employed by the daily sport, I don't know where he gets his sources from but he needs to concentrate on spreading his lies at someone else's club and leave ours alone.

If its true that we may have new owners/investors then we may be able to begin to build a team capable of going up and staying up. The problem is who is the manager going to be, do we stay with nw who to be fair never got the backing but to his credit has got clubs up, what managers will come to leeds knowing the problems they have to ontend with. I just don't know what to think anymore some of the managers that could be linked to Leeds would be good big sam been one of them but will he leave west ham some of the fans want rid of him others don't but if I were a west ham I would want him to stay just for reason he doesn't get clubs relegated. Do we look abroad you look at other clubs who seem to get the right manager and I THINK why can we never seem to do it right. So my question is to you Leeds fans out there is do we stick with nw or who do we go for.

Gary mac should come back has a scout got a eye for a player snoddy and becchio the two that ring a bell

Agree22 Disagree3

Gary Mac had some great ideas with going forward, lovely passing on the deck. But the defence was shocking. can't we bring The Chief back to work with Macca to sort the back four out? G63

Agree14 Disagree0

What about Dom Matteo as defensive coach
