    Blunts beat, so we're still 4 points off 3rd no matter what WBA do on Monday, not so bad. <cheers>

    No. Don’t think I said that. And you’re free to hold whatever opinion you want.

    My opinion is we’ve been sh*t for 15 years. We are top of the league and some people go into doom and gloom mode because they can’t get their ahead around the fact that teams lose football matches. Win we’re brilliant... Lose we’re sh*t mentality. Now I wouldn’t criticise you for that because you moan when we’re winning as well.

    I’m as p*ssed we lost as the next guy and I haven’t seen the game... Sounds like we didn’t play well today...but our ‘didn’t play well’, objectively, was still good enough to be unlucky to lose. It’s possible to be p*ssed your team lost without ranting about how crap they are.

    I would have preferred The blunts in 2nd rather than the webbed fingered ones but still 4 points above 3rd. That has brightened up Sunday a little.

    Swans did us a favour beat Sheffield. One point of worry for me about our current setup, we have nobody on the bench capable of changing a game. It used to be Saiz before jumping ship then Clarke but now he starts. We really need someone who can change things around when we’re struggling. Ok bringing in these young lads, and don’t get me wrong, they are decent but just fit and and do more of the same

    Norwich or Blunts or both dropping points next week, we'll need to have big Halme back in to get the job done with Pontus missing, I seem to remember that Rotherham are a big team.

    Next week is a golden opportunity to start opening up some daylight. Dare I say it but back to back wins now would see us in a very healthy position

    Need to forget spying ****. Bielsa needs to focus back on the team. Thought they didn’t look scoring until we literally gave them the first goal (a recurring problem if you look back at the games we’ve lost). We will lose games, thank you Swansea, we move on.

    Just watched Pontus' second yellow a few times with slow motion and I don't think that was a foul
    Bastards, suppose the ref didn't want reprimanded for not following orders

    I thought it was harsh as well OLOF. I don't think we as Leeds Utd supporters can be blamed for being a bit paranoid that everyone is against us.<yikes>

    And to add to your post other teams have more than one goalscorer. We rely on roofe too much. He does well but today he needed help.

    We have lost three games in a few weeks. Two of the wins especially villa were come from behind last minute jobs. I want us to go up autos but we dont have the squad. Saiz is not getting game time and we have lost money on him. Chances are the sulking lazy twat will be back with us next season. Apart from clarke and a few kids the cupboard is bare.

    Thing is shaks. I’m no happy clappy. I’m cynical and generally glass half full. But seriously if you can’t be happy this season you never will be. I get people are scared the wheels will come off because they have before... and bielsa’s sides have a rep for falling away.

    It just frustrates the hell out of me when people can’t differentiate between a fall off in form and a fall off in results. The side has weaknesses, the style of play has weaknesses sometimes they will bite us sometimes they won’t. We were playing worse during the 7 match winning streak than we have in most of this losing 4 in 5 run.

    It’s just football fans. You can get battered from pillar to post, have the opponents miss sitter after sitter and fluke a 1-0 win like we did at boro a few years back and have people tell you it was a great battling away performance. We lost 3-0 there about 6 months later when they had 2 shots, bellusci scored a spectacular own goal...we dominated the game had a goal disallowed... and we were a shambles apparently.
