Oh, in the final, all bets are off - anyone can beat anyone
I do think their squad is weak, which should come as no surprise as it's basically a League One/Survive In The Champs squad which McKenna has got an incredible tune out of. Man for man who from them would make our first XI? Leif Davis is an excellent player one might consider, but I'm struggling otherwise. That's not true of any of the other top team squads, a combined XI would feature some of our and some of theirs.
I do think we beat them over two legs though - not definitely, nothing in football is definite, just as it's not definite Leeds would beat us over two legs; but in all probability. And in the build-up fans of both will be anxious and catastrophising, it's what we do.
You may disagree and that's fine and reasonable.
We'll do 'em over two legs, though :-D
