Default Well played Leeds

We fought back well to peg them back at 2-2, but ultimately the better side won on the night, vastly improved since the september game, Smith, Viduka and Pennant were all awesome on the night, if it wasn't for Walker it could have been 4 or 5-0 before we even got started.

Jesus I were having kittens for the latter part of the game. You certainly put the fear of God up us and that were partly our fault for getting cocky and not finishing you off when we had the chance.

Walker made some outstanding saves, ditto Robbo. Pennant were pretty good but those kind of performances are few and far between for him I'm afraid!

The Dukes goal were a classic though. Credit to our lads for not letting their heads drop when you equalised and continuing to fight till the end.

It were also our Istanbul anniversary so I'm glad the real Leeds United turned out to give a battling performance worthy of the albeit sad occasion.

I think it's going to make for an exciting end to the season, with 6 teams battling to stay out of the bottom 3.
Leeds have some quality players, but a very very shaky defence, I think that your game against pompey is absolutely massive, and I hope you two draw
May I say though, I didn't think your fans were passionate enough, they all seemed way too tense and uptight when really they should have been spurring your lads on when it went 2-2.
Nice ground is Elland road, didn't like the poxy corner we were in though!

If we play Dom and the Chief we don't fare so bad, it's just keeping the 'Chief' (Lucas Radebe) fit with his knakered old knees that's a major problem for us. Caldwell started well then faultered, Dubes is far too inconsistent and makes so many school-boy errors for a senior squad member for my liking and Killa's one of the youth team who really shoudn't be thrown into our season right now.

As for Harte and Kelly, they're a pair of liabilties and want shooting. Harte's only in the sqaud for his throw-ins and free-kicks and they've been piss poor for the last few years. We don't have a lot of options really!

My greatest annoyance is with our midfield, that's where we lose most of our games. I'm still waiting for Johnson to find the kind of form he had on our European Tour with the "Thou shalt not pass" mentality. I'd prefer to see him back at LB, ahead of Harte and behind Domi. Seth's form seemed to come back temporarily when he shaved his head again for some reason but he's since reverted to being a shower of shite.

No you may not. :: You can hardly blame us though with the last 3 years we've been through, we thought we were about to see them throw away another lead and either draw or lose. We were under no illusions that anything less than 3 points were "Hello Coca-Cola Championchip Tour!!" ::shocked: ::weird:: We always have our quiet moments (usually when we conceed) but we sing most supporters out of the stadium when we're full-strength!

::blush:: Oh well......::hahaha:: The whole place is falling apart at the seams but we can't afford to do anything about it for now. ::upset::

I agree the last few games of the season are going to make for edge-of-the-seat stuff. Just a shame we're one of the teams in there in the first place! ::upset::

Me thinks Wolves are gone now and that Leeds, Leics and Pompey will be fighting it out till the bitter/sweet end!!

Still got one eye on Citeh/Bolton/Blackburn getting fully dragged into the mire though......

I think it should be Dubes and Radebe keep Dom in midfield for the time being
