    Today at 8am EST is Leeds - Wigan.

    Crainey, Wright, Butler, and Spring are all out. Killa is back from suspension and will partner Carlisle in defence. Healy also makes his Leeds debut.

    I expect this lineup....


    Healy Deane
    Johnson Walton Gregan Richardson
    Pugh Killa Carlisle Kelly
    Sullivan


    We're going to have to have the best defence in the league if we are going to deal with Ellington and Roberts. They are a scary combination.

    lost 2-0 off two pretty crap goals.

    Healy looks to be a very good player, and will definitely get goals. Deane actually had FIVE shots on target, most right to the keeper though. Simon Johnson played well, but still doesn't have the upper body strength to hold off the ball.

    I'd say the sides were about equal today, but that's not what the score says.

    What is that thing above the name on the back of their jerseys? I got to see the highlights today on Sky Sports News. Too bad it wasn't a better result. Looks like Wigan brought a big crowd.

    Wigan reminds myself of Werder Bermen inside of Germany. Both seem to come from nowhere and find success. I consider the W's for association.

    Crap Goals!?

    Alan Mahons was a stunner from 20 yards and Jimmy Bullards was a good finish from a tight angle :cool:

    I was sitting in the west stand even with the penalty box where both goals were scored. The first goal looked pretty awful from my angle, but on video reply, i'll say it was a very good strike.
