The Breakfast Debate

Good Morning Everyone,

Cooper is facing a possible suspension after catching Reading substitute Reece Oxford in the face with a boot on Saturday evening.

Cooper trod on Oxford on the edge of Reading’s box. Raeferee Keith Stroud issued no punishment after speaking with one of his assistants.

The FA are due to receive Stroud’s match report tomorrow morning and the governing body could also look into Reading defender Tyler Blackett's elbow on Chris Wood in the first half.

Cooper and Blackett are likely to be hit with lengthy bans if the FA decides to pursue the incidents.




What is going on with Jansson?

Did he fake an injury as retaliation so he didn't have to be sat on the subs bench?

Are fans blowing this out of proportion, or do you believe there is a problem there?




I don't think there is any love lost between Leeds and Reading!

If the Wendies finish above Fulham, then all three play off rivals despise Leeds!

Will that make it harder or easier in the play offs?

 

Morning all..

Before the previous week commenced a defeat would not have overly concerned me. It was that dick Stam and their gobshite striker that wound me up and made me wanting the win more than ever.

The defeat isn't the end of the world, it is a shame the players were not more up for it, mainly the midfield. As pointed out the other day they cut through the middle of us far too easily.

I think something is seriously amiss with Pontus, Monk needs to call him in and clear the air. Some continental players do need handling differently than others and somewhere we have a problem.

Monk said on team selection and when questioned about Pontus that he felt the team that beat Brighton deserved to start again, I can't argue with that but maybe he should have had a quiet word with Pontus (assuming he didn't)

Taylor headed the ball back into the danger zone, Cooper jumped over it (what was that about?) and they scored. I can't help thinking that would not have been a goal with Pontus on the pitch.

I believe we'll make the playoffs still, I'm just concerned about the three behind Wood and I feel we are more solid when O'Kane plays.

 

They probably DESPISE Leeds because of the spelling.

 

Morning all. We got 3 points from last two very difficult games and I'm more than happy. Two wins needed to make playoffs. If we can't get that from 7 games we don't deserve to be in them anyway. Pontus felt a tight hamstring and will be reassessed before Tuesdays game. Why can't that be the case, why always a major conspiracy with Leeds fans when someone doesn't play

 

Cooper deserves a six month ban
what he did was totally out of order
if you're gonna stamp on a hammers head you should at least use both sets of studs

 

Did Pontus accompany the the team to Reading? if not there is some explaining needed.

 

what would you want to stamp on an hammer for?

 

Yes and was due to be a sub but pulled out with a tight hamstring.

 

Yes WC, he was at the game and staying over with the rest of the squad till Tuesdays game according to Monk

 

Evening Brissy.

You spotted the deliberate mistake.

You win a prize....

 

I am reassured by that.If there is any doubt about hamstring it is wise not to take a chance

 

Morning all.

If Coppers stamp needs a second look by the fa that's fine as long as they also look at the elbow on Wood.

Do we look stronger in midfield without Bridcutt?
I think we have looked our best in that area when he was out injured. Do we try out O Kane and Viera again?

 

Morning Eire, Jansson looked alright on international duty...

 

Morning Mighty

 

Morning ristac, we need Jansson, Bartley, Ayling, Taylor and Berardi fit for the play offs to stand a chance of going up. Fortunately, two of these players are flexible.

 

Morning WCD, GOOD SHOUT

 

Morning Chesh

 

Morning Hamase, perhaps Monk is resting Jansson until closer to the play offs because of his yellow cards?

 

There's no need to shout I'm not deaf.

 

Pontus could be genuine but surely if there was any doubt about a tight hamstring he would be sent back to have it assessed by the medical staff.

The fact he has stayed over with the team for Tuesday night makes the injury even more suspect.
