    Jermaine Beckford scored twice as Leeds made it six wins out of six and moved off the bottom of League One.

    Rovers trio Craig Disley, Andy Williams and Lewis Haldane were off target with headers before Tresor Kandol converted David Prutton's cross on 77 minutes.

    Beckford's overhead kick made it 3-0 as Leeds scored their first points after wiping out a 15-point penalty.

    Its been a fantastic start. If they hadn't had the points deduction they'd be flying at the moment.

    I know many aren't fans of Leeds but I think its always good to have the big clubs in the better leagues, if only for rivalries sake. I hope they get promoted ok

    Good goals last night, I saw some of the highlights a bit earlier. Leeds have surprised me, I thought they might struggle a bit this season, but they have had a terrific start to the season.
