Selective reading there Tad.
I said if we get it wrong in January we will be lucky to make the play offs.
I do seem to remember you saying last year we were too good to go down and this year we are going up in the automatic top two.
I personally have not seen the consistency to think we are a top 2 team and if we do not bring in 2 or 3 good signings we will not be in the top 3 as I reckon Southampton are a better bet.
But each to their own.
Whilst there`s a long way to go yet I do think we must beat Ipswich tomorrow to have a chance of going up.

| i didnt mean to have a dig. i do think we need, and will get, a left back. posdibly a 10. as for no consistency? haven't we just gone something like eleven unbeaten?
play offs are a certainty. and there's still 70.odd points to play for.
last year burnley were regarded as the best ever championship team. we are on par to match them

Any other season we would be top of the leagu with our points tally,, this shows we’re certainly good enough to go up automatically, the challenge is catching the other two.
And like Tad says, we’re not getting beat, we’re on a good run, just dropping points in draws

| Yes you are both right there gents.
I`m on a glass half empty mode probably down to it [iwould [/ihave been my Mums birthday on the 21st and riddled with a full blown cold/cough and feeling sorry for myself.
I think it`s down to us dropping points in the last 2 games when we should be picking them up in order to catch Ipswich.
Win today and all will seem so much better
I have us down for a 2-1 or 3-2 loss though.

| I missed the first 2 (so my viewing curse was lifted!) Really dominant performance and some ruthless finishing and crisp movement forcing Ipswich into fouls. Hopefully a sign of things to come for both sides.

Hey listen I`ve got I think 2 results right in 2 years so there was never any money going on my prediction.
Me of little faith it was never in doubt we would beat them
Now had we beat Coventry, Sheff Weds, Rotherham and Stoke we would be flying
Fantastic performant all round and could easily have had 6 today.
If I had to pick a negative from such a positive performance it would be Messlier and his clearances.
Even Firpo looked good today and Ampadu pushed Rutter for the MoM I thought.

| Just watched it as missed it live.
Dominant performance, hopefully that’s the start of our climb into second!

| I love Leeds me. Buzzing. What a performance. Spence looked decent at left back but my word how good was Archie Gray… wow. The entire team were excellent and I thought Gnonto looked sharp when he came on. Game on.

| I think that's the most irritating bad result so far. It was clear it wasn't working, pretty quickly. We were losing all the 2nd balls, all the duels and lacked intensity.
All the bad results seem to have followed a short turnaround, and I could understand going with the same team after Saturday, but surely changes should have been made at HT at the latest, or at least swap Spence and Gray around, as it was clear that 2nd goal was coming all game because Gray was struggling and wasn't getting help from James.
As for Messlier? Beyond stupid.

| Said pretty much the same thing.
Gnonto should have started for James and why take Spence off when Gray was losing the battle most of the game?
Rutter too was off in the first half but Bamford or Joseph not the answer.
We do struggle when teams bully us or try to rough us up.

| Yep echo the above. It’s clear to see there’s a pattern when there’s a short turnaround, cannot understand why Gnonto didn’t start and I’d also have given Gruev a lot more game time if not a start. The left back is causing wider issues in the squad as we’re playing 2 players out of position. It’s definitely our major weakness. Gray is such a talent but he’s not quite good defensively yet and lacks physicality, not his fault as he’s a young kid but good wingers are having a field day against him. We need to get him back in midfield creating.
I think of Byram was fit we get a point there today at least. Needs to be addressed in Jan.
It’s not the end of the world but have to win Friday now especially as Ipswich got a point v Leicester. Long way to go but these daft results have to stop

| Spot on mate.
Relying on the same starting 11 each game when Farke already stated it wouldn`t happen is a mistake.
He could easily have rested Ampadu or Kamara and for me James to freshen us up.
All the good work against Ipswich undone against an average PNE.
And I hope I`m wrong but Darlow doesn`t exactly fill me with confidence, saying that I can`t say Messlier does at times
