Leeds United?!! Unbelievable. Let's put this inperspective in the 1999-2000 season, Histon won the Eastern Counties League - Jewson League. That same season, Leeds finished 3rd in the Premier League!

Northampton looked very flat and slow at the back.
As for Leeds, some neat football, but they were given bags of time on the ball, hopefully they won't enjoy that luxury here.
Intersting to see that they didn't look particularly comfortable with corners and crosses into the box, but i'm sure Fal would have noticed that. While it is naturally going to be a tough one, we have nothing to fear and a home win is within our reach

Comfortable Histon win. Leeds won't have many fans there with the ko time and the ITV cameras, and their players won't be up for it. Then a big draw for 3 January to overshaddow the match 2 days earlier.

"Leeds won't have many fans there"
Only the 1800 they have allocated and probably a few in the home end.

Leeds will sell their allocation out, however many they are given. Cup matches tend to be lower turnouts than League games for Leeds' travelling fans but that is normally because they are evening kick offs at short notice. Leeds have sold out their full allocation of tickets at every away League fixture this season. Yeovil was an early kick off and is a 510 mile round trip from Leeds but all 1956 tickets were sold. Peterborough gave Leeds 4,177 tickets and they were snapped up. You normally have to book months in advance to be sure of a Leeds away ticket.
Histon is a new ground for Leeds fans and so that will make it even more popular.
As for the result anything could happen with Leeds they could thump you or lose to you. If you let Leeds play and give them time they will destroy you. If you are in their faces from the kick off then you could upset them. I have been to every Leeds game this season so far and all our defeats have been to teams that have not given us a moments rest. The Leeds defence is the main weakness of the team and an inability to transfer superior possession into goals is another. Your biggest chance though is that we can be out muscled. So be gentle with us we have had enough egg on our faces over the last 4 years.

I was surprised to hear that Leeds didn't sell their entire allocation at the cup replay against Northampton.
