Me too, just wish he’d say Caaaam on YOU Rams!! ??

[Millenniumram]

Don’t get too excited, he’s obviously only talking about that lot in LA?

[S8TY]

negative I know but I just can't see us getting anything today but its important we don't get thumped....

I beleive in Cocu and what he's trying to do but a bad defeat today will have this forum in melt down later when realistically i expect the green shoots of recovery to start next week at home to Brum......good luck today lads we need to be mentally strong for this one

I don't think anyone will be in meltdown over a loss to a clearly in-form Leeds when we are struggling to find our rhythm.

Rather I see a collective holding of breath as we steel ourselves to get past this one and then start building form over the next run of easier (on paper) games. 

I'm expecting a loss, have a sneaky feeling we might get a draw and will be ecstatic if we win. Just show some grit, lads, and I'll be satisfied.

agreed but we'll see angie I still think  the wrist slashers will be out in force later....need to see past this game

[Day]

Not many will go to Elland Road this season and come away with anything. I just want to see an improvement on the performances v Leeds than what we saw last season in the league. Hugely difficult game today. Saying that.....

[Inverurie Ram]

Saying that............even local Leeds band The Wedding Present will Lay Off the Leeds fans with plenty of songs about our last visit to Elland Road.....not!.......Lead singer David Gedge picked to support Man Utd as a kid instead of this shower of Yorkshire misery!

Yes this thread needs a song.....

 

[Topram]

We sold many? 

[JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta]

Got a horrible feeling we are going to get absolutely drilled today.

Brilliant. I should have been in the garden 20 minutes ago and now I have been trapped watching the Wedding Present on YouTube!

And can you take a picnic?

I hope Martin starts today. He is pretty much our only hope to disturb the relentless pressure we are gonna be under.

Come on Cocu, show some gamesmanship!

On the train from Manchester, drinking Sainsbury’s cider and rewatching what is quite possibly my favourite video of all time:

Nothing will ever take that night away from us.

Forgot how good the winner was from Marriott. Why didn't he start at Wembley again?

I believe he was working on getting his handicap down to scratch.

[Mick Brolly]

They'll come at us fast from the start today if we concede early we could be in for a hiding but on the other hand we can't just go and sit deep for 90mins  let's hope cocus got a game winning plan COYR. 

[Shipley Ram]

We will defend deep and they will find it hard to break us down, but there is a big danger of them pressing us and catching on the ball us high up the pitch. Leeds fan at work says Bamford has been missing his chances so fingers crossed he keeps missing. He also says they don't like players running at them, our best oppertunity could be when their attack breaks down and Bielik, Keogh, or Clark bring it forward (and picks the right ball for a change)

Keogh certainly picked the right ball at their place last season???
