I think its human nature that you remember the teams who seem to be better than you'd have any right to expect but not the ones who were appalling when we played them. As an example we played Tranmere when Barnes was manager and they were awful and played Bristol Rovers after they'd started to slip away from a good start.
I think Tim's point about the Cup Run reminding people who we are is probably more valid. I bet Wycombe havent played as well for years.

However, I think this totally ignores one huge luck factor which is that form and various other issues fluctuate during a season, and there is a huge element of luck in whether you get to play teams when they are on a downswing or on an upsurge. Eg those jammy gits Newcastle...............got to play Palace the day after they were deducted 10 pts, plus when the administrator said their best player couldn't play. I fear we are suffering a bit in this area at the mo..................the Swindon game would not have been such a challenge when it was originally scheduled, but when we finally got to play them they were on a really good run and it was a tough proposition. Hudders as well.........came to Elland Road in the middle of a really good run and got a point. Same thing with Orient, who have been crap all season but have suddenly hit form (winning at Charlton and then crushing Bristol Rovers 5-0 last night.) And we play them away next week.................that's going to be a hard game now. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
