Neither team should have beaten their opponents in the last round (sorry Mancsoulsister). As I don't find either team particularly appealing, I'll vote for the underdog.

Yeah. Leeds is pretty boring. Salford less so. Salford it is. Never heard of the place to be honest.

Joy division alone wins it for me, chucking in New Order is just icing on the cake.

I like the variety in the Leeds team. Leeds it is. Joy Division is the best band of the lot though.
