Leeds face Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Sunday, just over one year to the day when the Reds won the corresponding fixture 4-2, a result that couldn't save Sean O'Driscoll from the sack.
Neil Warnock was then in charge of the Whites who are now led by ex-Reading boss Brian McDermott and, with the club's current owners actively looking to build bridges with supporters, and looking upwards at a potential promotion tilt.
Just one point and one place separates the two sides ahead of a game which marks the halfway point of the Championship season. While Forest were impressively beating QPR on Boxing Day, Leeds were drawing 1-1 at Blackpool, denied by a Thomas Ince equaliser after Peltier's early strike.
