SCIAG Very disappointing performance and result.

Leeds fans were intimidatingly vocal throughout, drowning out our support which was unusually quiet. Their fans were an absolute credit to their club.

The match was very one-sided, Leeds were all over us from the start. We were very scrappy and the referee was correct to book so many of our players and none of theirs.

Obita had his worst game for a while and Kelly is never going to make it as a professional.

Stam's substitutions were spot-on, I completely see what Grabban brings. Also nice to see Stam's new hair style.

Not looking forward to Blackburn!


:D

Happy with that
Thought we looked pretty damned good for the first 60 min. Was worried all those gilt-edged chances would come back and haunt us, but we hung on without Al-Habsi having to do much.

Disappointed in Stam going so defensive so early, we totally lost our shape and invited Leeds on for the last 30 min. Still, we defended nicely

In hindsight, our January transfer window was a massive waste of money. Popa aside, none of them offer anything extra.

If nothing else shows that the squad is far from complete.

Williams was helped off the pitch at the end of the game. Struggling to walk. Be a big loss if he's picked up an injury. Midfield is looking light as it is.

Couldn`t understand why young Kelly was taken off. he was the best player on the pitch for me.

Because Stam knew that Leeds would take the long ball route and he wanted to get extra height on the pitch.

Self fulfilling prophecy. We were on top when he made those changes....... could have at least waited until Leeds started going long!

So if he had waited and they had scored from a long ball the Kelly had failed to deal with because he was still on the pitch, do you think Stam would have escaped criticism for not pre-empting what was about to happen? The fact is we won the game so what he did worked out.......

Kelly's not long back from injury either.

It worked out ok, so no big deal even if it wasn't great. Ideally we'd have had Evans or Berg available.

AthleticoSpizz agree Emerald....great performance one and all.

Leeds fans "reverting to type" when convenient

Cooper should get at least a 3 game retrospective ban


Leeds really are cnuts. Fans and team. Always have been, always will be.

Utter cnuts.

Nice that they showed it for all to see. The bottle-throwing plus the stamp just sums-up their style.

Stam confirmed Kelly not long back from injury and we need to be careful. With JVDB injured, no Evans, Williams hobbling.

I've got to say I think Oxford and Mutch are good quality options to have esp with our injury list and will be needed over the remainder of the season. Grabban is the only Jan signing I think that still has a lot to do to prove his worth.
