Leeds have the early kick off, away to Preston, (televised) a game that should be an easy one for Leeds but as we know Football throws up some strange results & nothing is guaranteed, we find it harder to beat teams that just want to defend & throw everybody behind the ball, hopefully we will go into the afternoon three points nearer the top two.
This evening is a biggie, Ipswich v Leicester, a draw wouldn’t be too bad but a win for Leicester would draw Leeds to 4 points behind Ipswich providing we beat Preston.

That's rich after your keeper just got sent off! Dreadful game up until that moment.

Thats the irony, Preston have been dirty all through the game, & Meslier in a moment of madness over reacts to niggle, he has probably cost us the game & maybe the next three as he will now have a three match ban.

The Preston player went down like he'd been shot. Until he saw the red card at which point he made a full recovery. I'd have sent that cheating twat off too. Never happen in rugby.

Prime example of a player reacting to be being sucked in by an opponent.
That as well but if the ref had got a grip earlier then it’s likely the situation wouldn’t have arisen, as Osmajic would have been on a yellow already, holmes should have had four yellows.

It was right in front of the ref but maybe var would have ruled it out, honest opinion, the defender caught James’s heel then as James was going down he caught his foot, we’ve had worse turned down & softer ones given.
