    It's both. RLB in game subs has really kicked us down this season. Much more than it's improved us. This park the bus tactic has cost us more late goals than any team in the top half.

    Patto is just Patto and needs replacing. Anything in the box it's lead boots and indecisive action.

    Did we park the bus or were Leeds just relentless and better?

    Yeh I don’t think we sat back or parked the bus tonight. Just think Leeds were relentless.

    Bringing a CDM to play a 10 is as defensive as it gets.

    Bollocks eh.

    I am starting to doubt what Samed brings, esp in the position he was brought on for. His defensive work on both of those corners was dire.

    We chucked that away at the end. Could have easily seen out the draw. Patto man ffs

    What a backs to the wall performance that was, a lucky sliced shot ends up a perfect pass. Leeds beat Sheffield Utd and we beat Hull its game on again.

    Ah i'm gutted here. That first half was so good, borderline perfect.

    Proud of the lads.

    Roberts and Le Fee should have been hooked on 60

    We are still a very strong option in the play offs. Leeds will win the league and so they should, their starting Xl cost over £100m. Missing out to Sheff Utd is nothing to be embarrassed about it’s just really frustrating knowing we’ve dropped 5 points to Plymouth. Those 5 points would see us within a win of Sheff Utd. Nothing can be changed now though all we can do is go out there and pick up as many points as possible and if we do miss out we’ll go into the play offs as favourites that’s for sure.

    That's a tough one to take. I was OK with Samed coming on until he played up front. We had chances in injury time to keep the ball down their end but we either fouled or did a sloppy pass. Need to get over that straight away and take it out on Hull and Sheff Wed.

    It was definitely contain over control in the 2nd half.

    That might have been different had Mundle had a few minutes in the tank.

    Samed comes in for Jobe with Aleksic behind Mayenda for me.

    Yeah. Look at the second half compared to first. Massive massive difference. First half was bloody unbelievable.

    He didn't plat as a CDM though. I think it was to break up play higher up the pitch.

    Didn't work like.

    You think they deserved that win? Cos I ****ing don't. They ****ing dived and cheated all ****ing game. It's only when we put subs in that they took control of the game
