OK, here it comes from your friendly eternal optimist .... :D

I refuse to get carried away. Yes, we've got the makings of a great team, and I'm really, really enjoying it, but has everyone already forgotten our home league form? Played 2, scored zero.

Not only that, but out-thought tactically too. We struggled because the opposition flooded midfield & we tried to play through it, instead of varying it & popping in the long balls (like we do away, ironically!). Pretty sure we went through a spell like this before over the last few years - couldn't win at home, but on fire away. Can't remember when.

So let's enjoy the moment, but not get too carried away. Next 2 games are at home & may be a trial before we get gifted 3 away points from the wallies. :D

Agree it's a challenge we still have to prove we can win at home. I take a little reassurance from the fact both Preston and Fulham are tough teams to beat - both have only lost one game, Fulham won at Ipswich today, Preston had another 0-0 at mighty Boro (and how I enjoyed Monks post match comments)

I think we can do it, but agree we still have to prove we can.

Great game, that new lad Roy looks more like a rugby player, I'd swear he is related to Courtney Lawes.

He looked a little nervous when he came on so good for him to get a debut under his belt.

TC was questioned on if we need another striker and also if he expected a busy few days before the window closes and about the perfomance.

He said it was a perfect display and he had promised the players two days off from training if they came away with the three points.

He as good as confirmed that Green will be leaving, he did say he is a Leeds player until he signs for someone else and it seems certain we are going back in with an improved offer for Gestade.

Trying to remain grounded is a bit tricky after that game.

We played some excellent football and you can see that there is room for improvement.

I still think we are/were a better team with Wood leading the line instead of Roofe but that's history and I wish Wood well with his new club, I think he made a wrong decision but moving on...

I do feel we need someone better than Roofe and better than Hernandez, yes Roofe took his goal well but you feel Alioski and Saiz are more likely to score, they just look more classy.

I'm not over impressed with the strikers we have been linked with but I don't feel in a position to complain when you look at this seasons signings and how TC has got them playing.

I'm glad we have a break, the longer TC has these players on the training pitch the better you feel we are going to get.

Well what a day. I am absolutely bladdered so anything I post cant be taken down and used in evidence against me. It was my bday during the week, I won a fair amount on the horses. I gave most of it back to the publican tonight. I got fed up of liking every post after about page 11. But I liked them all. I love leeds united. I wish chris wood all the best. I forgive chesh and xbod their anti irish racism, they know not what they do.
We are going up. Auto. Good night I will have forgotten this post in the morning. Milwall boys well done. Trigger **** off xxx
