I'm confused. Who were these two? Only Gnonto remains from last summer? The others who wanted out left.

It'll be the usual squad churn if we don't go up but there's a case for adding more experience next season and using our financial advantage to get in some of the league's better players. I think clubs who come down have 2-3 years tops to get back up with parachute money or else they just become part of the second tier furniture. Not going up isn't the end of the world in theory but it'll be a huge missed opportunity.

Thought our fortunes were picking up after a hard fought (and well deserved) away win at Boro but it's been even worse since.

My expectations for the playoffs are rock bottom. We could in theory win them but we could easily bomb out against Norwich, which would be shit as we are better than them at our best. Confidence and form have gone to shit though.

Even by Leeds standards, a very weird last month. Not a huge fan of Farke but he will get another season regardless no doubt based on the mess he inherited last summer and the fact that despite everything, he got 90 points. I'm not sure he should though. A very limited manager who has failed to get one of the top 2 squads in the league up automatically when it was well in our hands.

Dirty Leeds with a safe 0-0 at Carrow Road and all to play for on Thursday. Hopefully a bit more action now at The Hawthorns.

Two poor games today with a real lack of quality. I expected a Leeds/Saints final and that’s on track I think.

As said, two very boring games yesterday.

I'd be disappointed if we went out to Norwich. I can see why their fans aren't keen on Wagner despite reaching the playoffs.

Gunn was shit for the first two, now it is an embarrassment.

Without having a foot in either camp, I have to say Norwich have been awful. From the kick-off they've been lacking in attitude, skill, and are totally bereft of ideas.
A waste of a play-off spot, methinks.

Hull, Boro and Cov all looked better than Norwich this season. Amazed they got 6th tbf.

Good to see us get our spark back a bit. Would prefer Baggies in final but think Saints might steamroll them tomorrow.

About as exciting as the first leg so far, Saints, but all to play for and mon pens.

So the same principles by which they approach every season they’re in the top flight then?

Felt inevitable it'd end up as a Leeds-Southampton final. They've done the double over us this season but we didn't turn up in either game. Two good sides at their best. A coin toss over who wins next Sunday.
