that was a close shave. But we werent quite as battered as some are implying. Crossbar struck and a couple of moves where wrong options were taken, we could have been one or two up before they started pressing. Not sure we would have been heard on the tele but the support from both sets of fans was great. Felt like a win rather than a draw. No way are fulham and wendies going to win all their games. Four points is enough but we will get 9. Cant even see us needing a result against norwich....
Yep. Shaping up to be a horror season for LL. there were positives for him though. Wood only scored one and Green let one in so some material there for him to work with
I felt the first 45 minutes was one of the best 0-0 I had seen, quite end to end, I heard the Leeds fans a fair chunk on TV but obviously outnumbered. Towards the end of second half the clearest I heard Leeds fans was the support for Monk
Hopefully, Peacock-Farrel was enjoying the atmosphere of 52,301 fans and was thinking to himself "I want part of that". I'm still hoping we go up and sign a new Keeper however if we miss out then next season PF should be knocking on the door, at least for the cup games.
With Wendies and Fulham playing each other the final game of the season and our point yesterday, I think 6th will be one of those two and 4th and 5th us and Reading. On paper I would prefer two legs against Reading
Hoping Green doesn't pick up a knock for remainder of season. Would be a big ask for Peacock Farrell to step into this situation now
True, I also fear our season or playoff being over before it starts if Wood gets injured. Bartley will now miss next two games as he is on 10 bookings now if I am correct? Is Ayling one booking away from a two game ban? looks like bare bones against Wolves at the back but a good bare bones Berardi, Ayling, Pontus, Taylor. I thought it might be worth Pontus getting number 15 out the way but it would leave us short of players against Burton...
Yep. Should have sold smudger, not good enough. Just a coincidence that he is injured now? Perhaps he has just had another dabble in his mrs's makeup box.
Nope, Bartley is fine. The 10 yellow threshold went up to 15 on the Second Saturday in March, so he can have another 5. Pontus has always been the worry, and I did post a week or so ago about the statistical likelihood of him getting banned - which was a cert, btw. Problem is, he's looking at a 3 game ban if he gets another yellow, so even if he took the hit next game, he'd be out until the playoffs. As Cooper still has 3 games left of his suspension, Ayling would need to cover for 2 games. Huge risk, tbh. Let's hope no-one gets injured, as we just don't have the cover we should. (Perhaps we'll recall Bellusci? ).
Wasn't Bellusci's contract terminated by mutual consent? Jansson should take the hit in the next game and be free for the playoffs imo, hopefully we can muddle through a couple of games until Cooper's back
Can only take the hit if we are winning by two with five mins to play.... Need to have the points in the bag.
Picked up too many cheap/stupid bookings and thats down to him alone. Still think he isnt anywhere near worth the hype.
