Could do with Swansea doing us a favour against Leeds to keep them looking over their shoulder too. Something tells me Leeds won’t bottle it though

I agree, they seem to have more steel about them this year. On paper, this game and the Derby game are two real banana skins for Leeds but they looked so good again Stoke that I don't see them losing again before they get a P next to their names.

Twitter has been a depressing place to be these last 24 hours. Very clear that neutrals everywhere want the romance of a Leeds/Brentford promotion, having got sick of seeing us do little in the top flight over the last 2 decades. So much encouragement for both of our rivals.

Wish they would both drop some points.

Leeds are up now. We need to try and keep our noses in-front of Brentford

Yeah Leeds are up now for me. Would love to be proved wrong.

Draw against Fulham and it's down to us and Brentford. Our destiny is still in our own hands.

On the positive side it should incentivize Preston who play Brentford next

Leeds only need a maximum of four points from three games. They’re not going to miss out now.

Three wins in the six games since lockdown have put us bang in the firing line.

Sometimes, you just know. After that Stoke game it was clear Leeds were not going to give this up. They are just too determined and too good.

It's us vs Brentford....a Brentford side who looks odds on to get the 10 wins in a row.

I thought Swansea were going to hold out.

Stoke probably safe now - not much on their game with Brentford for them.

I think we’ll end up looking back at the Blues game as the turning point. Had we won that we’d have had a very nice cushion. Psychologically it would have knocked back Brentford and Fulham IMO.

How’s your luck. I had to walk away from checking this game and just knew that when I looked it would be a late late winner.

We need all the motivation we can get and as expected it’s just not going our way. That’s Leeds out the way.

I can’t help but be negative.

I see your point but we have had teams with something to play for playing against our rivals and they've done absolutely nothing - not even a draw.

Expect no favours. We must earn this promotion ourselves. Simple.

Let's hope the Leeds players are as complacent as their fans. They think it's done. They might start twitching if they lose that local derby ;D only reason I now want them to get the 4 points is explained below.

Regards Brentford, well run club, exciting front three, decent manager and on an unbelievable run. But have a quick gander on their forum, the fans, absolute ***** one and all. Would love to see them get ****** by Forest in the play-offs.

Phillips out for the rest of Leeds season. Injury picked up against Swansea but I think they have done enough.

Agree..I've read through some arrogant forums before but they are right at the summit of being up themselves..

Hull allowed a first half touchdown to Wigan. Let’s see if they can answer with a touchdown drive of their own.

Thought it was a try and a conversion up in that part of the world...

Wrong code. Would only be 6-0 and it's a try and a goal.

That point wraps it up for me. Huddersfield and QPR are cannon fodder.
