Short turn around v what will be a highly pumped rovers. Could go either way.
I want Rovers to stay up, I'd rather have the Derby than not, I have lots of Rovers friends and I'd rather they be happier than some Leeds fans that I don't know. Plus it's great for our city to have 2 top flight teams.
The problem is, they're pretty crap this year. Sitting bottom of the table, just been beaten by the favourites for the drop and have already suffered a record Derby defeat this year. Their shining light is that Leeds are truly awful too.
Agree as I'd rather Rovers stay up than Leeds as it will be better for the city and us if they did. Think Parcell will have a bigger impact on Rovers than Lui will for Leeds. On top of that I thought Parcell had been one of Leeds most effective players so think they'll lose more than they gain there.
Still think of all the teams down the bottom London & Rovers seem more likely to win more than Leeds as both have decent halves and have looked decent at times and have coaches who seem to be able to get more out of the players they have where as Leeds have a coach with a track record of the opposite.
