Almost 20 years to the day Leeds were flying high in the top level and came up in the 3rd round against Cardiff away, with City in League 1 at the time. I saw them get beaten 2-1. A repeat would be brilliant, but I predict calmer scenes after the game if it does happen!

looks unlikely to happen with fans inside the ground. Club website refers to sales tomorrow but I expect they will update it with neverland ticket office sales.
Hope we still have our pitch covers as it looks like it may get very cold and possibly a bit snowy by the weekend(according to net.weather 10 day)...agree that the covid tests may also put a spanner in the works...fancy us for a major upset...
Firstly, I think the club need to update the club website that the ticket office is NOT selling Weeds tickets this week. Secondly, I predict a riot if fans do attend, but if they don't I predict the match will be abandoned with Weeds United refusing to come out for the second half with the mighty Reds 1-0 up. Or the match may not be played due to an outbreak of Covid in Porkshire.

If Leeds put out their first team and play the game properly they will win. Too much quality for us to deal with.
If they make changes, are not quite up for it and we play up we have a chance.
The gaps they leave in the middle of the pitch will allow us space to pick out Nadesan and Watters (if fit) to go past their defenders and score but when we lose the ball upfield we have to be sure we are in our shape because they go from front to back, with quality, in a blink of an eye.
Praying for a good one and a 2-1 win for the Reds.
I maybe wrong but I can see both teams scoring and quite an open game. We may even get a bit of short term glory by leading at some point. Leeds do not play after this until the following Saturday and for this reason I think they will put out a strong side. If any Premier League manager would have done his homework on lower league opposition, it’s Marcelo Bielsa.
Such a shame that no fans can be in the stadium to watch it, but hey, let’s make up for this at the end of May with thousands of Crawley supporters descending on Wembley for the League 2 Play-Off Final👍
Crawley 1-2 Leeds
No upset for me unfortunately but I wouldn’t rule one out at Newport involving another Sussex side...😁

Even the bbc has it getting down to minus 5 on saturday night now,I know pitch covers are good to a certain temperature but dont think it's that low..if was called off I wonder if you can put it off 24hrs as monday is a bit warmer, I worry about because as well as the glory ,there is a lot of money at stake here....

Pitch will be okay👍🏻Complete turf care do a top job. The only reason it may be called off is Covid due to a lot of teams in the prem getting it. With Aston Villa now having cases
