I am very confused. I didn't go to the game yesterday for various reasons so had to be content with the radio and sky sports news, now since the game I have been reading post after thread after post that the best side lost, we made the far better chances and were the best side on the day? But whilst watching Sky, Peter Beagrie (yea, i know he's a cock) was saying its a one way affair and Leeds bossed it from start to finish, the result was never in doubt even though Leeds only had 10? Can someone who was there tell me which it was, cos its hard to form an opinion with such contrasting info.
Leeds scored early on and looked quite dominant for 20-25 mins and had a one on one that DJ saved brilliantly - that would have buried us at 2 nil We actually started to look quite good after NK scored and I thought looked the better team from that point. Leeds looked good only down the right hand side and a lot of their passes were misplaced. If NM had scored the pen we would have gone on and won IMO, but KM made some funny subs against 10 men and we stopped creating as much as we should Overall I thought we looked pretty good from around the time NK scored and 10mins after the pen was missed - we still look a little shaky at the back though and better attacks will punish us, especially if they get it wide
P.s I haven't looked at the Leeds forum yet, but I suspect the only thing they would be happy about is gaining the 3 points I thought they were poor
I didn't go to the game so can't really comment, but here's the highlights anyway - http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0155fny/The_Football_League_Show_2011_2012_17_09_2011/ - 35 mins 22 secs
"But whilst watching Sky, Peter Beagrie (yea, i know he's a cock)" Never was a truer word spoken, for some reason the guy has a hang up about Bristol City and is therefore biased in his assessment of matches invloving us
Not completely true - he (quite rightly) gave us a lot of praise for our football in the first half of the 1st season back in this division BUT wasn't it him that was on Soccer AM the week before the play-off final practicing setting up Windass for that very same volley that he scored with against us...? I suspect that he may well have got a lot of stick from City fans about that causing him to not like us since... (pure speculation on my part)
