Wahoooooooo now pick them off and be ruthless

They're just not letting us. Which is the right the to do. If they give us a chance to settle it will end up pretty routine.

Best part about Chris Wood's hattrick is I work with a Newcastle fan who spent last week slagging him off to high heaven

JJJJJJJUSTICE

Come on Preston

In fairness, every time he went to go by him he just shoved fatawu with both hands and the linesman did nothing

It amazes me that people can't see what we're doing. Especially the first half. Overload one side then switch the play, then do it again and again and again so the oppo spends 45 mins doing shuttle sprints across the pitch Then are shocked they look tired and we look fresh.

Yeah I include them in it. Putting them Leeds and Ipswich in their own mini league is good. We also, aren't losing like 6 more games than Southampton. We're separated from the pack.

Easiest game you'll ever see.

I just assume thats like the opposite of the world cups. Instead of picking out beautiful Women that are in attendance its which set is the most deformed.

Perfect day of results really.

I imagine that's why he's gone strongest possible 11. On the plus side we might actually see what cannons like when we're actually trying to score.

Yes, you're absolutely spot on. But even when teams don't (like Plymouth at home first half) we haven't exactly exploited that fact and have instead opted for just total control for the first 45.

I can see a scenario where Southampton pip Leeds to second on the last day and that would be glorious.

I know we don't seem to play that way, but I'm sort of hoping he gets this wrapped up early brings on the subs and has us just control the game out.

We can already lose 4 games more than Leeds on the back half and still finish ahead of them. We didnt need leeds to lose. This is probably second best case, with a good argument for best case scenario. This is great stuff

Playing in Europe was the aim. Still didnt stop meltdown galore and bottle job accusations being thrown all over the place because we ended up in the europa league. the aim should be to win it. Anything else, from this position, is pretty poor.

Yes. It absolutley would be from here.

So should be going into boxing day looking to maintain a 13 point gap on Leeds and extend to a 9 point gap on Ipswich. This is brilliant.

Whos that? Because Ipswich were second 3 points behind at the start of play today

There's a difference between being in a good position to finish top 4 in the prem with brendan Rodgers as your manager and losing out at the end (an absolute certainty really) than losing automatic promotion from this position against vastly inferior sides. As much as people on here like to wet the bed over every team in championship essentially being the best thing since we'll.... us. We far and away the best team this league has ever had grace it.

I dont see a downside to Leeds winning this. We could be going into the Ipswich game with a 6 point cushion which is fantastic

Something has to go spectacularly wrong for us not to finish top 2 from here. This is just wether or not we open a bigger gap to second.

This game is win/win. Doesn't matter who wins at all aslong as we do our job today.

I still, personally, don't think Leeds will go up.
