Up Early for the Leeds Boys!
Morning, boys! I'm up at the crack to watch my beloved Leeds United as we take on Blackburn Rovers in another crucial Championship match. Leicester City's loss to Plymouth yesterday opened up a door for us to run through with promotion to the promised land of the Premier League on the other side. We have to take full advantage. Daniel Farke has made a few changes from the side that drew against Sunderland on Tuesday, and a win is a must. Come on, you Whites! #MOT!

The boys will be desperate to win one for Stu Dallas, who announced his retirement earlier this week.
The line-up for today:
Meslier, Roberts, Rodon, Ampadu, Firpo, Gray, Gruev, Rutter, Gnonto, Summerville, Piroe.
Summerville wins a free kick out wide left.
Oh - great double save from the Blackburn keeper first from Cry's free kick and then again from Willy's shot.
We've dominated the opening period and have made a few more chances than we did against Sunderland, which is heartening.
It's been a frustrating opening twenty minutes. We're just not clicking up front. I had been hoping for an early goal to open things up a bit.
Gio Rutter wins a free kick centrally about 30 yards out. Wish Dan James were on the pitch now.
Oh - great cross by Roberts to Ampadu who put it wide. That was a chance!
Oh - now it's Gruev who's off target at the near post. One of these has got to go in.
Finally, the ref has got the yellow card out for Hayden Carter as he upends Summerville for the umpteenth time.
Decent effort from Roberts saved by Pears.
Blackburn win their first corner on the break. Mark em up!
Willy wins another free kick in a dangerous area. This must fly in!
Blackburn break through Sammie Smodzics who pulls a great save out of Meslier.
Into extra time now - the fans are getting frustrated.
The whistle goes for halftime and boos ring the ground. In a similar way to the Sunderland match in midweek, the opposition has been able to frustrate us with a low block. We must do better in the second half.
The boss is ringing the changes now with Lord Bamford, DJ and Sam Byram coming on.
DJ wins a corner. This must fly in!
Oh - how did Gnonto not touch in that DJ cross shot.
Oh - great cross from Gnonto but Bamford nodded over.
Firpo wins another corner - must make this count!
