2-2
3-2 to the Albion. Awful conditions. Game littered with mistakes and comedy defending.
Tough to call. On paper, it looks like Leeds should spank us, but I remember thinking that before the game last year and I thought we played them off the park. Obviously, we still lost, but only due to a defensive howler. I looked at last year's fixture, and I'm not convinced our team last year wasn't WEAKER than what we'll put out today.
Our strike force last year was Revell & Robinson - this year Forster & (hopefully) Murray. Midfield is a big concern this year, but last year Savage, Fraser, Hammond & Martot wouldn't have given me any great cause for optimism either. Yet we still played really well. It all comes down to how Micky gets them fired up. I think we might just sneak it.
I'll be interested in the crowd figure - a sell-out last season. Concerns for the board if there's a big drop?
Fraser couldn't nullify a fart in the wind. Mind you, every other midfielder we have available is just as bad. It really is a case of choosing the least of the evils in midfield tomorrow. For what it's worth, I think Delph is too good for anyone in this division, let alone our sorry mob. He's going to run riot tomorrow.
