    Well back in my uni accommodation, fair play to the one's who are still on the way back to Berkshire. Very poor. Really surprised by Stam's comments as for the that certainly was not one of the best performance of the season. 1st half was quite cagey before they scored. 30 seconds before this we had a great chance, McCleary only having to square to Samuel to put us in the lead. It wasn't taken and after an easily avoidable throw in, a very scrappy goal was taken by Wood. After this, Leeds were very happy to sit back and watch the ball go between, Moore, McShane and Al-Habsi for the remaining 25 minutes of the half. I would say it…

    Didn't go and didn't listen because I was working (turned it on for 2 seconds to hear "silly by reading"). Losing away to Leeds is hardly a bad result and I have every confidence we will get a result against Blackburn. No biggy. Well done to those who went. Leeds supporting mate just texted me reckoning that was their best performance of the season.

    Thing is, we all know we're a couple of players short to really challenge, particularly away from home to the better teams in the league. I see this season as a bit of a sighter to where we are and what we need to do. We're clearly re-establishing ourselves as a play off challenger, we've got a solid management team in place and up front aside, we have a pretty solid spine to the team but there's precious little depth to the squad in key positions. We're missing Swift and I we need an experienced, calming influence in midfield which is potentially where Jordan Mutch could come in. I also think we may need another centre back as…

    Obviously difficult to judge only from the highlights, but barely looked like Leeds had a chance bar the goal either. Pen was a joke, but suppose we've had some dodgy ones Swift missing is starting to bite, esp with both Williams and Obita out. I much prefer the 3 5 2 to the 4 3 3, and Obita is pretty key to the first system. Need to win vs Blackburn now really

Need to win vs Blackburn now really Whilst I agree we need to win on Saturday it is amazing how expectations change isn't it. If we lose, slip to what 5th? Would have taken 5th on Xmas day on August 6th. Win on Saturday though and all good; would be 7 wins from 9 - can't argue with that! Also prefer the 3 5 2…

    Result doesn't count due to injuries and dodgy pen.

  • PT Pepe the Horseman 14 Dec 2016 · 9:47am

    And their first goal was lucky.

    I think we played very, very well. One of our best games. You are not going to get 10 or 15 chances to score, but you are going to get a couple and you need to take them - especially if teams are playing like Leeds. Second half maybe in the final third we could have done better with our decision making, in putting the ball in. We should have scored. And we should have been sharper defending wise because if you lose the ball they are going to try and hit us on the counter attack - that’s what happened with the first goal. Once you give that goal away it’s going to be more difficult because they can just drop in even more. Towards…
