In-form Leeds United eye play-offs Millwall 0 Leeds United 2 From the moment that Leeds United were shackled with the mother of all handicaps, the club have discovered what life is like in a parallel universe. (21/04/2008 08:37:59)
[from Match Reports (http://www.leedstoday.net)] United handed a reality check Huddersfield Town 1 Leeds United 0 Back to reality, then, with the realisation that automatic promotion at Millwall was as far-fetched as it sounded. (15/04/2008 19:32:57)
[from Match Reports (http://www.leedstoday.net)] Deadly Dougie shatters Carlisle The Football League are fortunate that legal arguments do not take account of emotion. (14/04/2008)
[from Match Reports (http://www.leedstoday.net)] United knocking on door to second place They do not speak of automatic promotion at Leeds United, but the self-imposed ban among players and staff in their dressing room may not last for much longer. (12/04/2008 15:53:35)
[from Match Reports (http://www.leedstoday.net)] Leeds United are Beck to their best DENNIS Wise's answer to criticism of Leeds United's performances was always the same. What logic, he would ask, could there possibly be in altering the approach of a team which was already adept at pulling in results. (24/03/2008)
[from Match Reports (http://www.leedstoday.net)] Praise be! Mac has first Leeds United victory With a wide smile and a cry of Hallelujah, Gary McAllister was a picture of unbridled relief as he clasped Gwyn Williams in a warm embrace near the tunnel of the County Ground. (03/03/2008)
[from Match Reports (http://www.leedstoday.net)] Leeds United match report: Tres bon for McAllister - at last Gary McAllister's wait for his first win as Leeds United's manager has been painfully long, but the 1-0 victory at Swindon Town which broke his duck carried the sweet taste of renewal. (01/03/2008 15:38:49)
[from Match Reports (http://www.leedstoday.net)] Leeds United are Beck in the play-off mix THE demands of Gary McAllister's initiation at Leeds United were emphasised last night by the club's reappearance in League One's top six. (05/04/2008 12:20:30)
