And the one thing ... http://leeds.theoffside.com/team-news/the-withdean-is-without-fear-for-grayson.html A shrewd move that many Leeds fans were calling for and one duly delievered by manager Simon Grayson.

He single handedly turned the game on ... http://leeds.theoffside.com/team-news/gradel-stays-on.html It seems a new row between Ken Bates and the rest of the world starts. [caption id="attachment_400" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Get out of my pub.....i mean club."][/caption] PA says no! Basically Mr Bates in his infinite wisdom has BANNED all photographers from Elland Road bar two. One of which is based at Elland Road. It's ... http://leeds.theoffside.com/team-news/photographers-kicked-out-and-decide-to-stay-out.html Leeds comfortably strode through to round two of the FA cup with a 2-0 away win at Oldham Athletic.

And ... http://leeds.theoffside.com/team-news/leeds-march-on-through-but-im-not-bothered-about-the-fa-cup.html It could well be one of the best and season defining weekends for everyone concerned at Leeds United.
