    I felt this was a must win game, a nailed on 3 points, hard to see where our next three points are going to come from...

    Agreed. Main ingredient missing from last season, when we were also ****e is a goalscorer like MCCormack. We may have gotten a cracking price for him but we've failed to replace his 29 odd goals

    I did fear we were not going to score enough goals this season, even if we had replaced him with a 20 goal a season guy where are the other 40 goals going to come from, pretty sad end to what has been a decent Christmas for me.

    Sad thing is it now appears well be in for another round of turmoil and chaos at the club which undoubtedly end as usual with us in a worse position than were in now. It's the Leeds way it seems Ristac. Results oddly not upsetting me as much as they used to but only because I expect defeat every day we go out. Anything else is a bonus

    I think worse for me because after Bates and GFH we suddenly had an owner making vast sweeping changes. I wasn't excited by all his signings but Silvestre, Sloth, Adryan and Berardi really did have me thinking wow these players could be just what we are looking for, I did believe they would provide a solid foundation... Sloth doesn't feature, the keeper is useless after an okay start and I can't say the other two have turned out as good as I had hoped.

    If relegation means getting gfh out, it may well be worth it. I believe they are a colossal road block to any majority shareholder achieving anything, not just Cellino

    But a half with four minutes of injury time still ended with Wigan looking most dangerous, through a left hand corner that curled dangerously wide and then when another long ball asked questions of Cooper and Bellusci who eventually cleared with composure.

    But United were booed off at the interval and had big questions to answer in the second half.

    I never bet against leeds but I will even give you the draw, £20 it is then?

    Or are you not certain of your superior knowledge?

    Another thing, I was reading reports here and there suggesting a little unrest in the dressing room, with certain players left out today and changes on 45 minutes with one player showing disgust at being substituted it would seem Redfearns problems are growing by the day. I did predict he wouldn't last till the end of the season and that he wouldn't walk back into the academy job, it would take a brave person to bet against that now.

    Given we've now won something like two out of the last seventeen, it would appear we can't beat anyone

    I think it's safe to say that the reign of Redfearn even including the caretaker honeymoon is now only less ****e than one other teams.... Millwall

    Thing is, unless redfern is relieved of his duties in January, he'll likely see the season out with Cellino going awol after January

    As long as Cellino goes, I don't care anymore....
    We are the worst I have ever, ever seen us. That includes under bates / GFH / Colin and donut.

    Honestly I been thinking I'd rather see our last 2 years in the Premiership again. Would much prefer to have Reid than Hockawally

    The massive shame is that I expected Redfearn to do well as a manager. My thought has always thought that if Redders had a decent mentor he could have been a good manager. Please don't make me say 'Sad to say I was wrong' by the end of the season
