Dennis Wise today scooped the League 1 Manager of the Month award for the second month in a row as Leeds' formidable charge up the table continued unabated. Following the last gasp win at Oldham Athletic on Tuesday night it's clear that the Gillingham 'blip' is now consigned to history, with the players and fans eagerly awaiting our next encounter - a first ever league meeting at home to Yeovil Town at Elland Road on Saturday.
The game should see both Jermaine Beckford and Tresor Kandol return to the starting line-up after serving their one match suspensions following the double dismissal at the Priestfield Stadium. The fall-out from those events rumbles on as manager Dennis Wise today requested a meeting with Referee chief Keith Hackett over allegations that he was sworn at by match official at the end of the game.
Wise and Poyet will be looking to plot the downfall of a solid Yeovil team who have themselves started the season well and boast an impressive record of 3 wins from 4 on their travels so far. But Leeds are the in-form team of the Football League having won 8 from 9 so far, whilst showing the impressive trait of grinding out results late on, and will be confident of putting Yeovil to the sword on Saturday to set up nicely the visit of top of the table Leyton Orient 7 days later.
