Week 265 – April 5th – Luton Town v Leeds United

Daniel James‘ fine strike rescued a point for Leeds United at relegation-threatened Luton Town as the Whites missed a chance to claim top spot in the Championship.
Isaiah Jones had volleyed the Hatters in front as they sought to build on a run of results that has lifted fans’ hopes they can escape back-to-back relegations, but James produced a moment of quality to level.
The draw means Matt Bloomfield’s side have now lost just one of their past six, although the loss of striker Elijah Adebayo to injury will be a worry to the Luton manager.
Leeds knew a win in the early kick-off would mean leapfrogging Sheffield United into top spot, but Manor Solomon missed a great chance to win it late in the game.
It means Daniel Farke‘s side have now drawn three successive league matches and only won once in six games.
The result, and Burnley’s win at Coventry, means that Leeds, having looked to be near certainties to win automatic promotion six weeks ago, are now reliant on Sheffield United or Burnley dropping points if they are to claim a top-two placing at the end of the season.
Farke dropped goalkeeper Illan Meslier after a series of high-profile mistakes, drafting in Karl Darlow in his place.
As mentioned, what a dreadful few weeks, Leeds have had, looking certain to go up and most likely as champions. Were now struggling to even get a point and are now outside the automation promotion places, which is not good with our play-off record.
Marching On Together.

Week 264 – March 30th – Visited Dad
Went and saw Dad, thankfully he has been put in the cancer ward that he goes to every week, so they know him there.
He definitely didn’t look well at all and was still on an oxygen machine and antibiotics.
The nurse said the last two days the antibiotics were helping his numbers, but it’s his oxygen and not eating which are the main issues.
He struggle to hold a conversation because of his oxygen.
Sadly he won’t be home for his 60th wedding anniversary.

Week 264 – March 29th – The Alto Knights
This evening, after the egg hunting, we went to Bluewater to see the new Robert De Niro film.
It was based on true events about two of New York City’s most notorious organized crime bosses vie for control of the city’s streets, from the late 50’s.
Not too sure why Robert De Niro, played the two main characters, as they weren’t related.
It was a good film, to end a good day.
