How many time's will we hear that before saturday.

And perhaps more to the point, how many times will we hear it from sunday onwards?

I've never heard it - should we get ahead and look like winning though you may hear it although we tend to save this for away games. But this really is your cup final - although chipfireball sees Huddersfield (a decent club) as the big one for some reason.

I wonder why your phone lines are down and the queues outside the ground are so long

This match excites me because of the prospect of another away win to consolidate the good start. Unfortunately for Leeds, it's their turn to be victims.

Nobs - one of your own - has posted the following:

"Cannot wait to stand in front of that statue of the late great billy bremner outside Elland Road. What a player No4 the midfield general and as hard as a hartlepool brick shithouse who else would you won't to lead your team out. Then to watch my beloved pool's play on that pitch that has had the elite of the football world grace it. Giles. Charlton. Hunter. Clarke.and John Charles.OUTSTANDING. Sorry for Waffling on but it will be a special day for me and many poolies."


Not a bad judge master nobs. Did anyone mention this was your cup final

As I live and work in Leeds then this match obviously has more significance for me than most other matches would.

there's no history between the clubs, but it's the novelty of seeing a club with Leeds' history in our division. Same goes for Forest.
Not so much of a novelty against Sheff Wed though, as they were never in the same class as the other two when they were a Prem/top flight club, and they were in this division in the seventies.
Carlisle is the big one for me, and Hartlepool will be just as big a game to their supporters.
