The international break is long over and now we’re back to the domestic game with the Championship kicking off tonight.
Hopefully, then, between Sheffield Wednesday and Middlesbrough, it’ll be a draw and we can then take advantage of that and get a win against Blackburn.
It’ll be a tough game at Ewood Park as they are strong at home but we are taking 8,000 fans roughly and so that will surely see the atmosphere almost become close to a neutral venue if not a home game.
Certainly, it’s another impressive feat from our fans and Samuel Saiz has admitted that despite visiting Premier League clubs, our fans are better than theirs:
💬 | Samu on #LUFC fans: "When you play at Elland Road, and you see all the fans supporting you, it gives you the strength to keep working, and do better. I went to other stadiums in the Premier League, and they don't have the fans we have"

It’s not a shock for us, of course, but it might have been for Saiz who was new to this country.
Which clubs he means exactly he hasn’t said but it’s safe to say we trump pretty much anyone in the top flight fan-wise.
