I think it would be an interesting game if Leeds were to rest some first team players and give the youth a run out.
Especially since Barrow are the only professional team not to have been beaten this year in all competitions.
I think BM will give them the respect they deserve.

Can't be an hypocrite, embarrassed at that draw. What have we become Wigan? Usually them always getting easy teams. Two League one teams on trot, couldn't have it easier, moan when others get that luck so will stay same.

Well, the last round was pretty much heavy odds on we would get a gentle tie considering 8 of the SL teams were missing from the draw. Plus we got a tough one to start up last year with Huddersfield away to start so swings and roundabouts.

draw Fev or Halifax at home in the QF's though it may be enough to tempt William Eve back from his sabbatical to point out Leeds' favorable draws in recent years

Almost worth us hoping for a tough draw in that case..

Actually would have liked a Sunday afternoon up to Barrow, never been to a game there.

It's dire. A bit like going to Odslum

Mike Harding described Barrow as a 27 mile cul de sac.
One of those places you can see but can't get to.
Rather like Old Trafford for Cas Fans.

Ha ha well the Cas bubble was always going to burst. I am just waiting for the Hardaker implosion, it's bound to happen, possibly when they get knocked out if CC by Stains
