When you posed the question we hadn't signed half the players we have now, I did say as things stand When the season actually started I said 9th http://www.not606.com/showthread.ph...eeds-Finish-Predictions?p=6861079#post6861079 I did also put Cardiff and Fulham down to win the league lol
Two points off the playoffs Two points above Millwall (remember them?) **** me with a fish fork, these are exciting times - at last I get the feeling this group of players are starting to blend - all players have weaknesses, its how they complement each other. I have a feeling the entry of Cook is the thing that is making a lot of this possible - anyone think I am mad to say that? Plus of course antenucci and doukara are starting to give us something to aim at
Tell you what, it will keep the Miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii contingent quiet If you want to hear the authentic doom-monger views, go to JA606 - I am sure they will manage to find the grey lining in this sunny weather
We're definitely not the finished article - far from it - but the players are starting to blend and we're starting to find a way to be a threat consistently. Cook has been excellent, keeps hold of the ball so well.
Realistically, you would expect a squad that has had 15-16 new additions this summer to take quite a while to really gel and come together. If so, makes me wonder how good we could get................

The thing that really strikes me is that some of these players we've got actually look... well... good.
Just got back in from the match, last one for me was Brighton and so much better than that. Someone needs to have a word with Berradi but that aside all good today. Doukara and Antenucciare looking good
Another win. Not good news. How will the crowd cope? No more choruses of, "we're not famous anymore". No more choruses of how we score away, & how sh&t are the opposition? Bring back Colin!!!! Redfearn out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG,just got in from work,went to look at scoreline with fingers crossed 3-0 and aparantley another very good performance thats two in a row,being a leeds fan not used to this, going for a lie down gotta be dreaming.
Out at meetings most of the evening so caught no feeds, commentary zilch. Can I safely assume frame scoreline we were excellent. I did say for ages to wait and see what we'd be like when transfer window closed and all our signings were completed. Looking good chaps
