This is one we must have with Man U, Liverpool, and Fulham lurking on the horizon. Tuesday, 2:45 ET in the States, Elland Road.
because of class i won't be able to make it. This is the game that i think will decide if we go down or not. win it, and i think we'll stay up, lose and i think we go down.
The house where I work has Fox Sports en Espanol. I saw on tvguide.com that they are showing a "futbol" game during the time of the game. I got excited but then found out that it was just a Copa Libertados match. I actually have Tuesday's off so I was going to see if I could come over anyway and watch the game. Guess I'll just have to listen to the radio feed.
Leeds 1:0 Wolves Alan Smith scores, my radio feed is awful right now so I didn't get to hear the goal what happened or what minute.

Another important game is Leicester City vs. Bolton. 1-1 Les Ferdinand scored and an own goal by Leicester has the two sides level the last I heard. They should be near halftime now.
Let's get a chat room going. If you have AOL Instant Messanger, send yourself a group chat invitation with the room name "LUFC". I'm on right now.
Sweet sassy molassy, we won a football game!! Is Leeds back from the dead, or was this just because Wolves are awful? It's good to see Viduka back and scoring goals.
I saw the goals today at work on Fox Sports en Espanol. It was hard to see Smithy's because it looks like he just tapped home a loose ball right in front of the net. Ganea's was by far the most impressive. Far post shot from about five yards outside the box. Matteo blasted a loose ball when the keeper was down from a few yards just inside the box. Milner fought off a defender and slid to knock the ball in off a cross from either Smithy or Pennant, I can't remember. Then Viduka made a nice spin move inside the box and got off a brilliant shot without much of an angle as he came in on the keeper's right side. Three of our four goals came from almost point blank. Looks like Wolves interior defense needs some work.
Did we need this win or what? This makes my week. Let's also hope this will carry on to the next games.
I was in England this week to see two Liverpool games. Went up to Leeds and saw this game on Tuesday night. As a neutral, this was a very exciting game. But first a word about your supporters, with all Leeds has gone through this year they were great. A nearly full house and singing all the way through. They didn't quit when Wolves went in front and neither did your team. Great stuff. In the second half Leeds was relentless in attack. Viduka could have scored a hat trick -- hit the bar and also sent one over when given a free chance at goal. His final goal was a classic striker turn to goal and score on the short side. Milner was very good both in scoring the goal and in toasting Old man Irwin and firing in crosses. But your undoubted MOTM was Alan Smith --- never ending running, marking and attacking. Made the Milner goal, scored one, and opened the field for Viduka. All in all I had a great night out at Elland Road --- and I wish you luck and success in staying up --- the supporters certainly deserve as much!
