And The Whites Go Marching On!

There's never a dull moment at Elland Road and scarcely a day goes by without United being all over the media. The last few days have seen Gus Poyet confirm his exit to Spurs, Dennis Wise receiving a 3 game touchline ban for his part in the Gillingham controversy, not to mention a comprehensive 'thumping' of a Millwall side who showed more fight on the match day buses than their team did on the pitch.

It has also been confirmed that Leeds first ever appearance in the First Round of this seasons F.A. Cup, which is also our first meeting away at Hereford United, has been brought forward to Friday 9th November and will be shown live on Sky. The away league game at Southend United will now be played on Monday 28th January 2008 having also been selected for live coverage. Amazingly it will mark United's first league appearance in front of the live TV cameras in a season which they have so far been the dominant force of the division, yet have been mysteriously snubbed in favour of the lesser-lights of the Football League.

Meanwhile ex-England International Ray Wilkins has emerged as the front runner to fill the vacant assistant manager role at Leeds, after previously working alongside Wise during his spell as manager of Millwall.
