Brian has to know his time is up now, even a win tonight would only have been a stay of execution, but a win tonight was crucial if he wanted any hope of staying?
Yep, poor bastards got lucky playing Wigan reserves, but unfortunately for our Wally chums Charlton won, it must ****ing hurt.
Erm. We need a ****ing draw at least against Blackpool. They're the only team that could be marginally as bad as us right now.
Think Thom Kirwin let McDermott completely off the hook with his post match interview. Questions I would have asked :- How is it acceptable that we have won 3 games all year? And bearing this in mind what are your immediate plans for the last 5 games to pick up points? Can you put your hand on your heart and tell me that your players have given 100% commitment and effort On form for the year, you are rock bottom of the division, if you were the owner of the club, what would you do?

Just got back from the game. Truly awful. Warnock and Brown the slight exceptions. Seriously considering if this lot are worse than those in the 80's. Sad to see some Leeds fans nearly coming to blows, arguing about slagging off players versus trying to lift the team. It's sunk to a pretty low place. Good turn out as ever but general,atmosphere was low. Lots of and maybe too much detrimental chanting but I suppose that those who have paid so much to follow the team are entitled to. I'm really deflated, Watford pretty ordinary team. Their manager never left the touchline, even encroaching onto the pitch many times in his enthusiastic support and encouragement of his players.....
I hope Cellino really does know his football. Clearly nobody else at the club does so he's going to have to produce something over the next few weeks. Not sure what, inspiration, fear, I don't know

Not positives, completely inept at the back and no creative or cutting options to release strikers from midfield. Lots of sideways and backwards passing. Butland made a great save but has no protection in front. McCormack looks as though he picked up a thigh or hamstring strain. Played on for a while. Officials were poor too.
Yes he was doing his best to try and get them organised, so too Michael Brown. They came out second half and had a go but that lasted for 5 mins then their heads went down. Crowd we're singing we're **** and we're sick of it. Blokes next to me went off for a curry just after half time!
