We've not looked nervous all season and we've hardly had a poor performance since before Xmas. Huddersfield will have to play out of their skin to win this IMO. They don't do so well away from home and we dont concede alot in general.

 

Once again, it comes down to whether our players can take their chances.

Not in total agreement with this. The number of times we've blown leads in games where we should have won has been a sign of nerves, Bournemouth being the recent prime example of that but also games like Stoke away when we were hanging on in the end.

Let's be honest, it's massive for both clubs. Got more confidence that we will be perfectly prepared and ready to get the result though.

 

Oh when those glasses get tucked in the inside pocket at approximately 5.50pm.  :aww:

 

Will he be moving in extremely slow motion?

Referee:  Martin Atkinson -  second visit of the season from the West Yorkshire whistler, following the 0-1 home loss to Everton where Jonjo Shelvey saw red.

 

Atkinson hasn't yet refereed the visitors this season. In fact, he has NEVER refereed a Huddersfield Town game in his last 16 years as an official.

 

He lives not far from Huddersfield but is thought to have Leeds sympathies and hasn't officiated a game involving Leeds United or Bradford City in his career.

I think Huddersfield melted last time out against Crystal Palace - they literally bottled it. They were poor, they didn't have a shot, they didn't really have a go at Crystal Palace and it got the better of them in a big football match. I think Newcastle at home will have too much for Huddersfield.

 

They never, ever looked like threatening to score against Crystal Palace and I watched them against Swansea the week before that and they played against 10 men for 79 minutes - more than that with injury time - and they never really looked like scoring there. There was one great save the goalkeeper made and Tom Ince hit the outside of the post. David Wagner should have changed it quicker and put the big centre-forward on.

 

How opinions change. :lol:

We 'should' win. Huddersfield have been a bit of a bogey team for us though. Quietly confident though.

If we do win, it'll be a mirror image of last season in a way, the beat us second game of the season when we are expected to win and they prove to be the "shock" team at the start of the season, however come the end of the season, when it matter we'd have ground out the result.

Aye but Hudds fans aren't happy either as they say he's a dirty Leeds fan who hates them.

Win is clearly huge, 3 home wins on the bounce is getting you out of trouble, at this stage of the season.

 

I'll try not to get too down with a point, because you'd think a win and 3 draws should be enough to be safe.

 

Lose, and I'll panic  :lol:

Good. If we can put one over this insignificant scum with a terrible refereeing decision, I'll be delighted.
