As David's text said, the Blades are 1-0 up against 10-man Forest. I just turned on the link a few minutes ago. United look a little nervy but it is still 1-0 with 11 minutes + stoppage time
COME ON FOREST
We need a late goal down the Lane just like vs Millwall
Bugger 2-0
Morning, UWS. I'm over at work monitoring the matches. No telly coverage anyway of our big match, so I'll be turning to the live text updates on the Leeds website and the FotMob numpties.
Bristol City only draw at home to Reading. That hurts for their hopes of the playoffs.
They are still in sixth but only two points ahead of Boro...but have played the same number of games. They must have an extra game. Looking at the table, I think it is against Derby
Morning Bob...sorry you have work but I am SOOOOO HAPPY that I have my Spring Break ahead of me
So, Leeds drop to third before the 10 o'clock kick off....it's simple...just win, win, win and win...or even draw one!
Full time at Bramell Lane
Three points for the Blades and up into second
That's of no consequence. Of course, we would have loved an assist from the Evil Lions, but we need to focus on the main job at hand. That's 10 points from four matches. We do that and we're up. Come on, you Whites!
The Leeds squad for today's match:
Leeds United: Casilla, Ayling, Berardi, Jansson, Alioski, Phillips, Klich, Roberts, Hernandez, Harrison, Bamford. Subs: Peacock-Farrell, Forshaw, Roofe, Dallas, Davis, Shackleton, Clarke.
It's as it was at the weekend, with Berardi in for Liam Cooper, Alioski still deputizing at left back and the front line of Roberts and Bamford. Roofe, Clarke and Dallas are the obvious subs if something is going pear-shaped.
Almost kick off time now - MOT!
Good morning, Bob and Dave. Watching Richard Burton vs Pompey on Plus
And we're away at Elland Road. Come on!
Pompey win an early corner. In swinging corner from Brown headed about a foot over by Clarke.
Morning, MUR - how are you, mate?
I am back from walkies and listening to talkSport on my phone
They are going around the grounds but based at Elland Road
They're talking about how good MOT sounded
Leeds attacking the Kop
I'm leaving this on instead of the numpties....they are off
Looks a nice sunny day in Blighty as it is in South Texas
Goal Down by the Riverside
Boro 1 Stoke
Brum 1 Derby 0
Blues have been on fire since they were docked 9 points
Two early goals - Brum are 1-0 over Derby and Boro are 1-0 over Stoke.
Doing well, enjoying a four day weekend. Thanks for asking . How are you?
Boro already into playoff spot
"All Leeds"
Welcome back, Dave. Watching Richard Burton vs Pompey on Plus
And we're back up to second where we belong.
Harrison gets to the byline, his cross just evades Bamford, but lands with Pablo Hernandez at the back post, who sees his strike blocked.
PNE 1 Ipswich 0
Love listening to the around the grounds
We're on the front foot right from the off - I want an early goal!
Good news for Pompey fans is that Charlton, who are challenging them for the last promotion spot, lost 2-1 to Oxford
I'm doing the same MUR
Derby tie it up
UWS will be interested to note that Pompey is currently on Plus and will be on Monday vs Coventry with that kickoff at 7:30.
Early corner for Wigan cleared out by Kal.
As we will on Monday. I may still be asleep when that one kicks off.
I'm still hoping Pompey can get Top 2
A game in hand over Barnsley.... the big match is Sunderland vs Pompey next Saturday
A long throw causes some panic in our backline. Early match jitters. Cut it out!
We need a goal to settle the nerves. Come on!
The announcer stated that there will be a rep[eat of the EFL Trophy Final at the SOL a week from tomorrow. That's a promotion six pointer.
My cousin, her hubby and my Aunt Janet will be at Fratton Park on Monday
Salford City take the lead at Boreham Wood as do the Orient Express vs Harrogate Railroad in the Railroad Derby.
That should be an exciting match for them
Rotherham take a much needed lead at the Swans
Motley Crewe takes the lead vs struggling Yeovil
OH!!! A long range effort from Jamie Allen is about two inches wide for Richard Burton
Ali has a chance to swing a free kick in but overhits it.
Martin Waghorn has equalized for Derby at Brum.
Penalty to Leeds.... AND A RED CARD FOR THE HANDBALL ON THE LINE!!
Richard Burton win their third corner in about a minute. Pompey keeper, McGilly , catches the corner
YESSS!
Cedric Kipre has been sent off for Wigan and we have a penalty!
WAY HAY! Great news.
Up comes Pablo.... SAVED!!
NO!!!!
Pablo has his penalty tipped onto the post!
BUGGER! Penalty from Pablo Hernandez saved. Sorry, Bob
YESSSSSS!!!!!!!
Now we are in the lead!! Patrick again!
BAMFORD DOES PUT LEEDS AHEAD!!!
Cedric Kipre sent off. Kipre will be relieved that his Kipre saved the penalty
Leeds can't be missing penalties tho!
WAY HAY ! Congrats, Bob.
Kipre being sent off means that Leeds should Kipre scoring. BOOM BOOM, Basil.
Brum take a 2-1 lead vs the Rams
Newport county take a 2-1 lead vs second placed Bury
Bury down to third , slightly behind Jayne Mansfield on goal difference. As things stand, Abe Lincoln will clinch the L2 title today
Evil Ridsdale riding all over the Tractor Boys, going two up.
Blackburn in the lead at QPR in a basically meaningless fixture.
Real Dons in the lead at Bristol Rovers,moving them out of the drop zone for the first time in ages. With Bradford losing 2-0 at Coventry earlier today, the Bantams would be relegated to L2 today
Leeds haven't lost when they've taken the lead
Leeds boss was thinking of going to West Ham during the summer but West Ham their goals were to "get better"
Leeds...."Premier League"
UWS and Fred will not be pleased that Barnsley have taken the lead vs the Shrews.
Bob will be pleased that he made that decision.
Chance for Wigan, Clarke breaks through and he gets past Casilla who comes a long way out, his chipped effort goes wide though, with the Leeds defence racing back.
Northants in the lead at Sol's lads. Sol is out of the drop zone, but only two points ahead of bottom club, Yeovil
Oh - Luke Ayling has a header saved from a corner!
YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! BEN CLOSE GIVES POMPEY THE LEAD. THROW HEADED OUT THEN PASSED TO CLOSE , WHO SCORES WITH A ROCKET IN THE UPPER 90 FROM JUST OUTSIDE THE BOX,.
WAY HAY.... ONE NIL POMPEY!
Great Leeds pressure right now - I want a second!
A right old ding dong at St. Andrews - Desmond has arrived.
Bywater more a by product in the Burton goal as he wasn't even close to saving the goal from Close.
Will the match at the St. Andrews be a repeat of the one at the Etihad?
We're now on +28 GD; The Blades are four goals better on +32. I'd love to close that gap today as well.
We've got another corner chance now - bring the big boys up!
Jayne Mansfied on top of both Morecambe and Wise. Abe Lincoln now needs a win to clinch the L2 title today. Already promoted.
Want another Leeds goal sharpish.... this is the day Leeds need to get a boatful of goals...they need another four to take the lead in that column. They have scored more goals
Salford went two up at Boreham Wood, who have now pulled it back to 1-2. Goal difference is crucial for Salford.
Shame that Barnsley are winning too
Solihull in the lead at Bromley. Salford cannot afford a slip up.
Swans tie it up vs Rotherham
Swans 1 Rotherham 2
Should we be watching the match from St. Andrews?

Sol's lads tie it up at Northants and are two points clear of the drop zone.
Coming up on half-time now at Elland Road; I'd love to see another goal for us before the break.

Baggies 1 Hull 0

Goal scorer, Ben Close booked for a clumsy challenge on Stephen Quinn.
Great free kick opportunity now - let's finish this one, lads!
Brett Pittman with a shot from just outside the D not too far over.
A pair of stoppage time minutes from the Pirelli.
Pablo's low effort is cleared out. Shame.
The Baggies have improved their playoff chances with a goal against Hull right before half time.
Southend take the lead at Wasall, moving them out of the drop zone and replaced by Scunny. Wasall second from bottom after being mid table a few weeks ago.

Bugger!
They are playing against TEN MEN!!
RUDDY NORAH
A late corner for us is cleared and Klich is booked for trying to stop the counter.
Leeds almost concede from a break!
A yellow given but could have been red

All square at the break. We need to win this one again in the second half now.
Brilliant... I forgot about Sky Sports New on the telly right now!!
All the scores and around the grounds
It will be the same on Monday too...LOVELY JUBBLEY
All 20 games, when Leeds score first, they win
LONG MAY IT CONTINUE

Jack Grealish gives Villa the lead at Bolton. As things stand Bolton will join the Tractor Boys in L1 today
Hull ties it up at the Hawthorns
Nice hit for Hull but the keeper should have saved it
Tigers tie it up at the Hawthorns . Nice long range effort, but poorly judged by the keeper.
Desmond at Swansea

Forest Green on top at Tranny.
That's 5th vs 6th in L2.
Apparently the red card for Wigan... was not a handball
Ayling has a shot blocked from the edge of the box, before Roofe is denied from close range.
Roofe with a chance.... chested to the keeper.... put your head on it mate!!
We saw it on SSN... should have buried it
Oh - Pablo has missed a sitter, teed up by Ali. Shame.
It will be a quiet Saturday this week. Other than the Prem , there is just Accrington Stanley vs Luton, which is the same time as the late Prem match
Ipswich three down at Deepdale
Pompey nearly score. Bywater tipped over a close range header from Burgess.
At least we're creating some chances - just need to bury them.
Villa two up
McGilly does well to turn around a long range effort from Stephen Quinn for a Richard Burton corner
Jack Grealish with his and Villa's second at Bolton. The home team all but relegated.

The Fake Dons take a real lead at Notts County while Northants take a 2-1 lead vs Sol's lads.Bottom three all losing in L2.
Hull take lead at WBA
Yeovil with a player sent off at Motley Crewe while the Tigers take a 1-2 lead at the HAwthorns.
