Sometimes, Leeds fans cannot understand what the obsession is with their club for a lot of other Championship sides. One of those teams is Millwall and with the Lions coming to Elland Road after the international break, the Whites aren’t surprised to learn that Neil Harris has been running his mouth ahead of the tie.
"It's the biggest game of the season." #lufc https://t.co/y6O32x1rcZ

The Whites just cannot understand what it is with Harris, but he always seems to have some kind of issue with Leeds. The 41-year-old made a big deal of the last meeting between the sides at The Den, a game that saw tempers flare when Jack Harrison scored a late equaliser to preserve Leeds United’s unbeaten start to the season, and this time around it looks like Harris is up to his old dirty tricks again.
It seems ludicrous that just days after being knocked out of the FA Cup quarter-finals, despite leading 2-0 going into the 88th minute, Harris is already touting an away day in the Championship as their biggest game of the season. It certainly won’t be easy for Millwall, though, the Lions have picked up just three points of the last available 15 and sit dangerously close to the drop zone, so getting something from Leeds would be massive for Harris, whose latest comments you can read on the YEP Website.
You can see what the Whites have been saying in response to Harris’ comments here:
Not one for hoping for a club's demise but on this occasion I will make an exception horrible club /manager / fans

Just shows that preventing Leeds is more important to Millwall than winning the FA Cup.

Didn't they just throw away a 2-0 lead in an FA Cup Quarter Final for a chance to go to Wembley? This is farcical.

The Whites have enjoyed seeing what Harris has to say ahead of the clash and will be desperate to put the Championship strugglers one game closer to the drop.
