Coach Quotes
Speaking to the press ahead of Saturday’s clash, Matt Peet said: “We’re expecting a real arm-wrestle of a game which will be really tight. Leeds away is one of the games that we circle in pre-season as we know it will be tough. Leeds are a star-studded team and as far as pace and power goes they’re right up there with any team in the competition.”
