'ere we go! (yes I am jumping the gun a bit with us up by 2 and Millwall down by 2 at the hour mark)

Happy with that.

Great finish to the season!!

Just wondering how the playoffs work? If we win the 2 leg series are we promoted?

The winner of the two playoffs will meet at Wembley and the winner of that game will be promoted.

I've emailed Fox Sports about covering the playoffs as well and I will be getting a few friends and family to do so as well.

Response from Foxtel

"We realize how important these matches are to league fans.Contrary to information provided by others, FOX SPORTS does not automatically obtain rights to these matches in 2009. The process of rights acquisition can be complicated, and we do hope to resolve this issue very soon. Regards,Foxsports"


Keep the emails going.

Worst comes worst there are always live streams guys. I know that's what I'll be doing if I can't find a pub showing it in Barcelona.

 

[Catman]

Fox Sports 2 schedule has EPL listed for 9.30 - 12.00 Saturday night. But the EPL games don't start until midnight at the earliest.

 

[mushda]

Now it says Preston v Sheffield which is already on that morning. Good signs I think...

That petition has really started to surge, broke the 200 barrier today.

"fox sports has secured the rights to the final only"

Get down to the Charles Dickens Tavern, on King St in Melbourne, this Saturday evening to catch Leeds vs Millwall LIVE.

It's the first leg of the League One Playoff Semi Final and we want all Leeds fans there! It's been ages since we've had a Saturday night fixture on TV, so for an evening of songs, pints and hopefully some joy...get yourself to the Dickens!

FoxSports are not showing the game so this is the only way you can watch the game and via a fast internet stream (that is paid for) the quality of the stream is guaranteed. It will be broadcast on several big screens around the pub.

We will continue to bombard FoxSports in the hope they show the final, but for the semi final, the Dickens is the only place showing it.

The boys will be meeting from around 6-7pm onwards, with the telecast set to start at 9pm, so get yourselves there and cheer the lads onto victory!

Leeds United Victoria scarves will also be available for purchase for just $20 each.

A final reminder, that the second leg will also be shown at the Charles Dickens, at 4.45am on Friday the 15th of May.

Hope to see you all there on Saturday....MOT!

Slightly ironic username there if you're a Leeds fan...

 

[Wednesday]

Yeah i know. CBF changing it.

 

[RickSanchez]

Signed it, dunno if it was too late or anything. Still following Leeds closely but forgot there was a Leeds forum on here.

Would be awesome to watch the games.

 

[mushda]

Well I am a little too young to head off to the Dickens, but I'm pumped as ever for the trip to the new den on saturday night. If anyone has some tips for getting a good quality stream I would greatly appreciate it, usually I rely on the myp2p website.

generally underages get in, depends on just how young you are...just hang around with the older gaffers who can be your guardian..

will find out the stream we're using, and il pm you..pretty sure its like 2 pound a month though..so u may have to pay..but it is ace, no buffering etc

If you could do the same for me it would be much appreciated drewie. I was thinking about heading up the highway to the Dickens but an early start on Sunday morning ruled that out unfortunately.

 

[year of the roo]

There will be plenty of decent free streams lads. try iraqgoals.net adhte.net myp2p.eu and cric7.com. Between those 4 we'll be well covered.

 

[year of the roo]

Richard Naylor has been terrific this year for us, but what a shocking piece of defending there! Need to get Robbo on to give us a bit of something different going forward. Kilkenny or Howson off and Delph into the middle of midfield. Come on Leeds!!

 

[RickSanchez]

Dw just read that is two legs...nothing insurmountable about the first one.

 

[mushda]

Hmm, need to improve a fair bit on that performance if we want to advance. Maybe it was simple away game tactics but our midfield didn't seem to want to pass it at all, just long ones all day. I still think we can do it but it's going to be one very nerve wracking Friday morning.

Lucky we picked up Sodje, the guy is a rock.

 

[Catman]

One thing for sure is that it will be all out attack on Friday morning. 1 goal down is not great but it's hardly the end of the world and we came back from that same deficit last season to make the final. I think this years side is a better one, with a better structure and a better manager.

Maybe it's roles reversed this time around - we struggled at home the last two times but played out of our skins away, maybe this time it will be the opposite?

Here's hoping.

 

[Catman]

9 1/2 hours to go. No doubt it will be a early start for all of us tomorrow morning. Just how is everyone feeling and what are your predictions?

The heart says 3-0 and we cruise to Wembley, the head says more heartache, again.

It is so hard not to be pessimistic. I am hopefully a massive, rowdy home crowd will send us through. Trying to find a pub here in Malaga to watch it.

im banking on more heartache..we just didnt look like breaking milwall down at all in the first leg at all

why do leeds do this to us?

btw apologies catman and mushda as i didnt pm you, but below is what we sent out this morning to LUV members
