    The few times I've been we drank at the Corn Exchange area and then got some sort of official bus out to the ground.

    We're parking a 20 min walk away and will pick up some fish and chips or similar en route. Beer will probably have to wait until the concourse.

    I just looked it up and Google says it's an hour walk from the station.

    And probably about 2 hours from headingley which just confirms that it’s always best to ignore tricky

    Tbf he said he drank there, not that he walked from there. And Headingley is probably the best place to drink given it's full of cute 20 year old students and light on snarling bald men in white polyester.

    My point, if I had one, was that I perceived no satisfactory recreational opportunities around the ground. It's an arse to get to if you take my approach...but it's better than being in (bad) Beeston.

    Spent my exercise bike ride watching - amongst other things - highlights of Leeds 3 Forest 7 (GMac 4, Dexter 2, Geddy), Leeds 0 Forest 1 (Oliveira) and Leeds 0 Forest 2 (Derbyshire 2).

    Where’s Murillo?

    I’m still scarred by Morato’s ‘effort’ at Wrexham. Assume he’s CB with Abbot at RB.

    Anyone noticed Amarillo is missing? Looks like Abbott at right back, Aina left back and Morato slotting in alongside Milenkovic.

    That is an “interesting side”. Assuming Morato and Milenkovic are CB’s, playing them together is always entertaining. Abbott is not a premier league right back and Aina looks far worse on the left.

    So, expectation drops from 6-7 to 3-4.

    Not expecting to be starting the Wolves thread now, which is good news for Ingo at least.

    Ingo won’t step up for what will now be a critical game.

    We sort of knew that already after last week. No Murillo was a surprise. Not playing your new left back is also strange in the circumstances.
    It’s definitely two steps forward, one and half steps back with Dyche.

    Hey ho.

    Hot take. That idiot Dyche should definitely not let players get injured, or play them anyway.
