Brighton and Hove Albion v Leeds United

Brighton could welcome back midfielders Will Buckley and Jake Forster-Caskey to the squad for the visit of Leeds.
However, Keith Andrews (hamstring), Andrew Crofts (knee) and strikers Will Hoskins (knee) and Craig Mackail-Smith (Achilles) remain sidelined.
Leeds striker Noel Hunt was named on the bench on their last outing and could be involved after recovering from a long-term hamstring injury.
Otherwise manager Brian McDermott has no fresh injury or suspension concerns.

I think it's a necklace. We're into uncharted territory here with a badge three times - looking forward to seeing how it affects the match. Otherwise, fairly neat and tidy. If you're using an ampersand, I think you're right to use the contraction "Utd". I agree a full stop after the Utd to denote the contraction has now become obsolete. Good apostrophisation on Leeds' - were you tempted by Leeds's? "Asistant's" needs a lot of work though, and no need for the colon after "Officials". Other than that, pretty consistent - 8.6/10.0. I think we'll draw, but, having seen this thread, I've upgraded our share of possession from 56% to 59%.

He sounds quite posh doesn't he?

Amazing only 7 goals in total in our last 6 games compared to Leeds' 21.....!

Something has to give tonight I reckon.
4-4

Absolutely tremendous work.

On this day in 2002, we beat Reading 3-1 in one of our BEST midweek performances. I fully expect the same result today
