When we had 5 games left I thought this will be the hardest fixture of all. Our track record isnt good there and being screwed over twice in three years is it ment to be.
Well were the team in form so I hope watto gets the lads going knowing we can beat anyone on our day. Leeds are safe so I'm hoping they will take the foot of the gas.
Hope we take a good following too

I don’t think they will take their foot off the gas but if we play to form I don’t think it will matter. The pressure is off slightly for us this week - away from home, not on tv and with last week’s banana skin out of the way.
I’ve convinced a few old Leeds mates to join me - I’ll turn them into Reds by the end.

I wouldn't say it's a "must win" game as such, but I think we really need to win it to maximise our chances of finishing in the top 3 and getting a home playoff. Especially because I expect Wigan to win both their remaining games, and Warrington at least one of theirs.
Looking forward to it anyway. We're onto our second coach load apparently, so hopefully it's a decent atmosphere.

Heading over on the rattler with a couples of mates as think this will be a cracking night out.
Are there any decent pubs near the ground? Quite fancy a few Belgium beers to steady the old nerves?

It's prime student territory around Headingley, there's plenty of places to have a drink. Arcadia might be your best bet for European beers, although it's a few years since I've been in. If you're in the centre of Leeds then I'd recommend The Grove, about a 5 minute walk from the train station. Foleys Tap House isn't bad either.

I asked around- new place in Headingley called ‘Head of Steam’ that serves a range of decent ales. Apparently the prices put the students off. Everywhere else will be full of youth on a Friday.

Most students wont be starting their course for another few weeks so cant imagine it will.

I lived there for many years - it was always pretty young even at the best of times with a lot of students staying on and living there afterwards. I’m not that old but will probably be giving it a wide berth myself.

Well the club are doing a 3rd Supporters Coach now so looks like we could be taking a few there. Think the most coaches to an away game i can remember was to the opening magic weekend fixture against Celtic. Think we took 5

Anyone got any suggestions where to park to make a quick(ish) getaway after the game? Parked South of the ground last season (near Burley Park Train Station) but traffic was an absolute bitch after the game (far worse than at the much maligned AJ Bell!).

Parked South of the ground last season (near Burley Park Train Station) but traffic was an absolute bitch after the game (far worse than at the much maligned AJ Bell!). I had this problem as well last time. It was fine though once we got back onto Burley Road (coming off Cardigan Road). I dunno whether to try and park somewhere near the bottom of St Michael's Lane and get back onto Burley Road a bit further up.
