Leeds have been on over a million times in that period.
I think Norwich have featured a few times already this season as well, so it might be just a case of Sky showing another Norwich match that just happens to feature us rather than being interested in us in the slightest...

The Wigan game has been picked from the start of the season. Norwich has been added later though.

Aye - but still a coupla weeks pre-Lennon. Not that it matters - we're on the box!

Looking forward to this. Score draw - nailed on, I'd say.

Neil Lennon's super white army.

This is going to be a Halloween nightmare for Norwich.

A win would take us out of the bottom three. That'd be scary. COYWM.

Lonners, Threlkeld, Mills, Dervite, Ream, Spearing, Mavies, Pratley, Danns, Lee, Beckford.

Subs: Kenny, Mason, Clayton, Trotter, Vela, Cravies, Moxey.

Lee wide right Danns wide left would make sense, but not in context of what he's done so far. 4-4-1-1 with Lee off Beckford, Pratz left and Mavies right? Any road, not a lot of width there!

hmmm - bit of a love affair with the whole Beckford on his own up front vibe...

Pratley - is that 100% starts for him under Lennony?

and still no sign of Medo...

He'll play Danns & Pratley wide(ish) in a diamond with Mavies central. Lee in front of him

is Feeney injured ? Where's McNaughton ?

Yup, normally you'd think of a midfield system there with Danns and Chungy wide, Sparky playing the #10 and Pratley and Spearing sitting. However, it will almost definitely be Danns and Spearing sitting with Chungy as the #10, Sparky and Pratley wide.

Worked fairly well vs Birmingham. I'd still rather see Craig up top than Beckford, but maybe this is the match to spark a goal-scoring run?

Hope whatever is wrong with McNaughton is nothing long-term. Also slightly concerning is, not only our lack of width on the pitch, but lack of wing options on the bench.

In Lennon we trust!

I thought you wanted the kidz!! McNaughton is 67yrs old! Threlkeld is the yoof you crave! :D

I hope Threlkeld does well, but surprised to see him there, McN must be injured. Nathan Redmond vs Oscar worries me after seeing him get bummed at Crewe. Which side does Redmond play on?

They are looking scary threatening. Don't see much coming our way with Becks up top.

Mills needs his arse kicking for that, appalling defending. We look wide open generally though. Defending like that and with just Beckford up front I see a defeat looming. General play has been decent, but means nothing if defenders are going to do stupid shit like that. Cameron Jerome isn't even any good, which makes it doubly embarrassing.
