Darragh Cunningham joins us to recap an up and down week at Elland Road. Wins, draws, wondergoals, transfers and Junior Firpo, there’s lots to discuss, with music by David Dean as the cherry on Farke’s cake, which I’m sure will have everybody dancing on tables.

So an FA Cup tie at Elland Road is finally happening today after Leeds United set a record of 13 away ties drawn in a row. Plymouth Argyle are making the long trip from the South Coast and a draw wouldn’t totally surprise me, with Leeds away to Plymouth in the league on Saturday 17th February.

The unchanged team was no surprise but with Byram fit and on the bench it was disappointing to see Firpo starting. Since the turn of the year Leeds have done a nine darter, 3 games of 3-0 wins and how appropriate that darts World Champion Luke Humphries paraded his newly won trophy around his beloved Elland Road prior to kick-off.

A 12 noon Sunday kick-off to accommodate Sky keeps me once again away from Elland Road. These lunchtime kick-offs are notorious for producing slow starting, low key performances and contests.

The day between the presser and the match is always the quietest of the week, but there was an important game in Hull, where the 7th placed Tigers lost to Norwich, presenting Leeds with the chance to establish a 10-point cushion inside the top six tomorrow.

Leeds continued their perfect start to 2024 with a dramatic late victory over Preston. We discuss the many discussion points from a volatile lunchtime kick-off, and round-up all the other goings on at Elland Road.

Daniel Farke stuck to a similar formation to last week’s cup win at Peterborough. Bamford was always going to play after the wonder goal made it two goals in two games for him and Amp partnered Rodon again at the back with Gruev having another chance in midfield.

Tomorrow the Mighty Whites visit one of our bogey teams, Cardiff City; we always seem to struggle away from home against them.

An explosive day in Twitterland as debate rages over Djed Spence’s terminated loan. Reading between the lines of Herr Farke’s press conference comments, it seems The Big Easy was taking it too easy, and Spurs immediately placed him on the transfer list upon his return.
