..of Yorkshire that is. A land where dragons dwell and the roses are white. The valiant students of the Unibol make the trip with hopes of miraculous dimensions....A very nervy win? ......or is that asking too much?

I think we'll concede at least 3. Again, another high 5 and much respect to anyone going over there and paying 40 quid to watch it.

3-1 defeat

Rotherham, Reading, or both (in the event of a draw) can still stay ahead of us tomorrow even if we win. But, as has been said, it isn't this one that will decide our initial fate. Just keep hoping....

I'm not quite as confident. Maybe 0-1. Possibly a draw.

And a cracking save keeps Maggenis from scoring. Mic man reckons it was easier to score than miss. Nothing new there. Matt flicks one over our bar for a corner them and then the ballet begins. Mic man still can't believe Mac missed that.

Bags of noise (with Yorkshire accents) as Millwall go one down to Preston elsewhere. . We have a throw....Williams....and it ends back with the keeper. Some chat about ships and sealing wax etc, then we have a free kick for Matthews. We've already picked a yellow card uu (Lowe?)...

Donaldson just robbed by the keeper and we get a free kick from it. And....they part clear, Noone puts it back in and....it ends back with Matt. Is this an encouraging start,or is it just my imagination? Mic man reckons we might have been the better team...so far. Time for a COME ON YOU WHITES... ..AND WITH THAT WE GIVE AWAY A PENALTY AND IT'S 1-0 THEM...

We're giving a bit of welly out (and getting punished for it by free kicks) Donaldson assaults a homer and that's another. Some pass the parcel and we get in and collar it...throw us, Connelly.....Donaldson.....Noone and........we have scores.....then we get a corner.....and...and....oohhhh it's 1-1...Beevers :oyea: :oyea: :oyea: :oyea: :oyea:

Iles says Connolly is in a back three, Noone LWB.

Meanwhile, that Magennis chance sums us up. Leeds have scored in 14 of their 16 home games so a clean sheet was never likely, but we've drawn 17 blanks in 33 games (8 in 16 away) so if we don't take our chances up the other end we're f**ked.

So: BEEEEEEEVERS!!!!!!!!!
