Great Performance today for 75 minutes. I hope we just took our foot off the gas and didn't simply run out of steam.
Went ****ing mental when Hammond scored. Had a great view up in the Chapel, knew it was in soon as he hit it. Great result. And a few fellow Chapolians even joined in with the sing song! Fair play.
I was a proud man standing there, scarf aloft, as we tore a below-par Leeds team a new one. Quite a few new faces in teh Chapel, maybe why there were quite a few more joining in with the songs than normal.
About as comfortable as it get's in terms of first games really. Midfield was the key and we won that battle convincingly, keeping Snodgrass quiet, forcing Gradel into his pathetic little tantrum and Brown into being a typical dirty skate but elbowing everyone. Terrific build-up for the goals and a delight to see how good the front two and the wide men linked up. Lallana absolutely class, as were Cork, Fonte and Connolly. Leeds' fans were great when they got behind their team(even at 2-0 down) but I couldn't understand the 'Grayson OUT' chants straight after the third goal - especially as 10 minutes later they proceeded to chant 'Your support is f*cking ****'. Irony. Good atmosphere for most of it - and why close the Itchen corner? Onwards and Upwards, 2nd in the league and long may it remain!
I've lost my voice today by singing in the Chapel. This is something I thought would never happen, ever. Probably through shouting on the goals, and shouting at Lonergan - the dick.
Richardson was a beast today, kept their wingers fairly quiet - not an easy task. Hammond was superb. Really, really ran the show in the centre of midfield. Cork carried on the mantle second half after Deano was subbed. I think they're our starting pair on current display. Good to know we can sub a few players and then switch to a 4-3-3, with De Ridder and Lallana either side of Lambo and Cork, Morgan and Chappers as the midfield three. Very handy to have a team with such versatility. Lallana quality as always. Connolly was sharp and tenacious, great player. Fonte imperious as always. Martin showed why he is lauded as a future star (and also why he isn't quite the finished article). Guly worked really hard for the team today and got really stuck in - helped us win the midfield battle. Lambo was well marked tbf and didn't get much space and time, but he still won a few headers and showed some crisp link-up passes. Davis pulle out two quality saves. Good day. See you lot on Tuesday!!
We should have scored at least 5 really, Lallana had a great chance to make it 3-0 minutes after 2-0 and Chaplow was unlucky to hit the post - was a good save from Lonergan.
Been sitting in the Chapel for a while - we just need people that are willing to sing, fair play for joining in. All it takes is a few groups of fans singing and it's a decent place to sit. I too am lacking a voice ATM.
Take him, we got him as a free agent, sold him for 1.5mil and bought a better keeper for 200k. That's a bargain mate not paying 1.5mil for an arrogant keeper who has no idea of positioning or tactics but makes the odd amazing reflex save....usually infront of the cameras.
Good in any language. He should be signed up for Solent...made no sense (no change there then!) but such enthusiasm!
Kasper for 1/1.5 million! Leeds are laughing all the way to the bank with that one. Living off his dad's name, like has been said he makes the odd spectacular save but in my mind is an average keeper!
