Apparently the NUFC game is sold out. Finally a chance for Cellino to see what ER looks like with 38000 fans inside. Can you imagine what would happen if they all started singing 'time to stay, Massimo'? Would he fall in love with the club and plough additional millions in? we may find out.

I hope they don't Al MC is a bit marmite but most of us have discussed the fact that so far signings are better than previous seasons (ok we have a good few loans) and for most part he has remained more in the back ground . I don't think many would expect promotion this year as let's be honest Newcastle, Norwich and Villa are strong sides put that with a number of nearly teams and we our up against it. Maybe the Bridcutt loan made an impression on MC and his thinking loan a player proven at this level (barkely ) . Want to mention LA who has improved with the side and looks the part, PH is a good player tends to be targeted by other sides and kicked s##t out of alsdo a lot of games in champ and we have no really to step in . About four signings away from being a real handful, a striker an experienced midfielder are two . I would sign Sako however for my money his to hit and miss to be in squad every week, Dallas has been injured or on Int duty most of season and Roofe not sure .

Snoop, your last few words 'Roofe not sure'. The last game or two I think he maybe beginning to find his feet in this league. Give him a few more months and I believe he could be one of the stars of the team.

If MC or any other suitors had any doubts at all about the potential of our club, then this goes to show. As stated it's on TV, on a Sunday and the tickets ain't the cheapest yet it's sold out. Throw in the fact that the club shop will get hammered by those who haven't been for a while, the bars and pie shops will coin it also. Hopefully this will become the norm and if results over the next few games go well and we look good on TV, everybody will love Leeds again 😬.

Good post JT. A win against Bar Codes will probably do more for us commercially than league table wise like you say. Could produce an amazing steamroller effect and be the final incentive for MC to get check book out in January.

Longing to see Pontus against Toon. Pontus for President ! What a game ! Without MC he would still be playing in Italy for Torino. Anyone?

George i'm not necessarily disagreeing but not sure one full house will get MC to splash the cash. Average is about 23k this season. I've got derby apr fulham and brighton mates taking the piss beacause of low crowds at ER. We are not the only side stuck in this league for years yet our average attendance is barely in top ten. We badly need our good run to continue and be around playoffs come new year. Otherwise same ole again.

Cork Didn't say one full house. I said one full house plus win and against league leaders. If that occurs only 6 weeks away from the transfer window combined with the play off refund pledge not to spend in January looks very retarded. All we need is a proven goalscorer in this league and we will be a handful for every team in this division over the full 90 minutes.
