    Hernandez looking sharp again, I think Leitner is looking alright today too. I forgot Rhodes was on the Pitch until that last chance, what a defensive header to stop him.

    That was a decent last 1/4 of the half.

    We seem to have bought a very dodgy keeper in Krul.

    I would go so far as to say we have a crisis in that department especially after releasing Matthews.

    Very much like Ruddy after his injury - never the same again.

    I agree with all that are pointing the finger at him, though the defence are not making his life easy a lot of the time.

    Let's face it, we're getting worse each season. Perhaps since the last Lambert season, perhaps since the first of the country vicar. And during all this time, we had a decent keeper because NCFC has always had decent keepers, until now. This season is about survival, at best.

    This is the first game I have seen this season and we don't look very good.

    We need someone to pump out their chest and start yelling at the team .
    We have no leader on the pitch .

    Is the Matthews sale a done deal in January or can we renege?

    I saw the 2nd half against PNE midweek and that was awful until they hit the bar - the rest, as they say, is history.

    The way we today started, I really thought that the confidence from that victory was going to make this a much closer encounter, but alas ......

    Headless chickens, with a fox in the pen, is how I'd describe us at the back.

    It is a Bielsa inspired Leeds today though.

    Can’t see us getting out of gaol two games on the trot, have we had an effort on target yet?

    This is very much the same Leeds team that finished 13th last season to our 14th position. So what has happened to Leeds since last season. Hucks on BBC Radio Norfolk claims that their new manager has got them well organised and fitter over the summer. More stats: we have won only 4 matches in the past 20 and they were all at home. Surely it is time to seriously look for a replacement manager?

    From what I've seen this season. Hernandez and Pukki look a cut above our team. We look dangerous when those 2 link up. It just doesn't happen enough.

    I think the realists amongst us can see that we are going to struggle to stay up .

    Shots on target according to BBC = Zero
