Sully/Bennett
Kelly/Richardson Killa/Gregan Butler Harding/Crainey
Stone Miller/Bakke/Douglas Derry/Einarsson/Walton Lewis
Healy/Blake Hulse/Cresswell/Moore
vs.
Sully/Warner
Kelly/Richardson Killa/Gregan Butler/Foxe (potentially) Crainey
Stone/Carole Derry/Nicholls Bakke/Westlake/Einarsson Lewis
Healy/Blake Horsefield/Cresswell/Moore/Beckford
We sign a left back, left mid, Warner and Foxe(free) we're gonna be untouchable ;D in my opinion... Team this year all the way!!!
We are going up!!!

Team is improved! However, Hulse is better than Horsfield - and can't you change Beckford for Moore

This is our year... of that I'm getting more confident by the day.
If we can get Andy Reid, Hayden Foxe, a permenant keeper signing, and another left back I can't see us fearing anyone barring injuries.
Even if we don't sign any further players, a top two finish is attainable with the squad we have. Blackwell said last night though he is seeking to sign another 3 to 4 players, so we can only improve further. If everyone plays as a team and to their potential, then we will be unstoppable.
With the way Ken Bates has run the club, the appointments to the backroom and coaching staff, and the improvements made to the team, we are looking a very attractive prospect now for promotion.
On the last day of the 03/04 season we said we'd be back. Now, it's time!

New signings made in defence.....none Speed of defenders at the back.....not improved Top scorer gone, quality replacement.......not an improvement With regard to the defence, I'm sure this area will not be ignored. Roland Benschneider looks a possibilty as does Hayden Foxe and in typical Leeds fashion we'll probably sign others we'd never even heard rumoured. I'd be very surprised if at least one central defender wasn't signed within the week and if another left back wasn't brought in shortly as well. There appears to be a hive of activity going on at the club so I'm sure this area will be sorted before the window shuts. It's a shame we've missed out on a player such as Shittu, he would have been a great signing for us, especially at the initial fee he seems to be leaving for. Him and Killa central at the back, would've been awesome. Ah well. I don't think we'll miss Hulse that much as Cresswell is only a few weeks away and Horsfield is an adquate replacement in the meantime. Our midfield is massively improved and I'm sure more goals will come both from midfield and from the strikers as we have a much more creative midfield than last season. Chin up Hulsey, I think good times are ahead. We have a better squad overall than last season, and it's going to improve further I'm sure.

How the hell Norwich didnt score today is beyond me so anyone taking heart today from the 1 nil win is seriously deluding themselves as unfortunately I can see us conceding a lot of goals if we keep that defense! (rant over)

(rant over) Cheers man, i'm glad i'm not the only one thinking like that. Sure i want to think positives, sure i want to get behind the team just as much as you and the other fans we have and sure i believe we are capable of getting back up to the prem. BUT this is not gonna happen unless KB starts looking at the areas where we need new players! A Centre back AND Left back are 2 definates and possibly a striker Oh by the way mate, welcome to the boards

Lucky to get a draw at home to Norwich last season. Lucky to beat them at home this season.
Looks like an improvement to me!
