Good Morning Everyone,

Our shocking way record speaks for itself!

Our shocking midweek performances speak for themselves

BUT

Last night when you put them together, we saw some magic.

In a strange way Bianci being carried off (as he couldn't continue) was a real blessing for Redfearn, as according to many reports Sloth turned the game.

Was that the turning point?

Would Redfearn have kept the same team he always seems to play. If he had done, do you think we would have won. Was it a blessing in disguise that Austin and Cooper were ill?

It was not only great to see a win, but to keep a clean sheet was fantastic, even though we rode our luck a few times with both Bamba and Murphy getting caught in possession.

Could we see a great partnership blossoming with Bellusci and Bamba?

Should we perhaps play with five men at the back?

Radio reports in the last three games have praised Morison for his hard work and distribution. I'm sure his goals will come next game.

Nobody can say we did not deserve the win, can they?

We have now beaten both Bournemouth and Reading away during midweek games. Has the voodoo curse been lifted?
 
Good morning Elland and all.

I started to write a post in the match thread yesterday but deleted it, we won and it should remain a positive. The post was along your exact lines today, would we have still won or did a series of circumstances leave Redfearn with little option?

I don't believe now is the right moment in time to relieve him however he surely cannot take this squad into next season?

We need to secure Championship football and it would be nice to get a new guy in with at least 2-3 games to go so he could maybe give his opinion on some of our non featuring loan options.

On another note is has anyone any news on Ngoyis injury

Morning ristac

N'goyi's injury is only a thigh strain, but bring him back too early, and he'll be out for the rest of the season.

Sloth played a big role last night. I'm not even sure if we would have won had he not be playing?

I remember being excited about signing Sloth, he is a player who I believe improves the team, if we play 4 2 3 1 it would be good to see how Sloth and N'goyi work as the "2"

I think it could be that Redders had that bit of luck last night when Bianci got injured because by all accounts Sloth made the difference
Good morning by the way to matt and co from a dull Bardsey after hurry as I have to take Moe to see her specialist
I would like to thank the person who showed the d goal as it showed with only seconds to go we had 4 attackers in their penalty area at least this shows desire and confidence maybe we can crack on now .I still think that Millwall will stay up and Charlton will make up the remaining relegation spot .So for me Wigan Blackpool and Charlton will be the ones for the drop
 
You cannot take anything for granted in this league, top loosing to bottom etc. stopped doing match predictions on the bet sheets, was always a banker would let you down.
As for Sloth coming on as a replacement and turning the game, maybe it was like England in the World cup in Mexico, Ray "i can only pass the ball square or backwards" Wilkins, threw the ball at the ref and got sent off, the Manager at the time, Bobby Robson had to pick a different midfield, then England took off, and was only knocked out by that cheating Argie Bar steward, hand of god, has that happened to us?? can only dream <whistle>

Morning Doha, I have always thought about betting on the underdogs. The superior odds may well more than compensate for the times they lose?
 
Saturday is huge, a win and it would take a large weight off our backs and i think we'll go on to finish the season quite well.
 
Now then guys, as much as morrison is maligned he holds the ball up and creates chances as well as space for others.....just hope he scores on sat !!!
