These officials are trash.

Scum have been the better team, sadly. I hope we hold for the point. Stupid to have sat back for 45 mins

Fortunate point, Leeds dominated the 2nd half. But we didn't lose which is about the only positive.

well i think that for me decided we were either going to be up there in the top positions or were we are ! midtable that game showed us how far off we are !! not a negative but just were we are at as a club at this moment ! touches of brilliance followed by donkey dogshite defending from the 70s ! and inexpieriance youth ! a good point in the end the ref was garbage but he didnt make any major decision to xxxx our night up ! both teams should have had pens nfact if it were the world cup it would have finished 10-10 on pens .. but thats just fairyland eh charly Whistle

ratings up after ive kicked the dogs a bit Wink

and how joss is going to play the next game is beyond me ? bannan out !! we may aswell play 4 strikers because we dont have any midfielders !!

I'll take that point, particularly after that 2nd half performance. We never got going in midfield all game and if Bannan isn't clicking then we don't either. Defense looked shaky at times but it was usually because the midfield didn't close them down or didn't stop them. Hector played in midfield in the 1st half but dropped into the back in the 2nd, he wasn't as effective for us going forward after that. Too many times we gave the ball away cheaply. or were 2nd to just about every loose ball. Not a great performance but we did get a point from it which is a positive as we would have lost this game last season or earlier this one.

Tough fixtures ahead, we need to stick with 352 somehow as it's the only formation that seems to allow us forward movement

i think we lost most second balls tonight due to the fact that leeds have agood team and a very pacey one ! we looked slow in comparison to the villa game and that is why we won the villa game !

My thoughts ..
Even 1st half ..lit up by a wonder goal from reach
Pelupessy did all the shite things well
Penney looks better every game
Lees had a good game
SIGN HECTOR ..screw FFP ....

Bannan was fairly anonymous

Leeds aren't as good as Sky think they are
The Ref was from Elland Road ..the worst I have seen this season

Sky commentary .. if they could have nipped into the away dressing room and given BJ'S ..they would .. after knocking the refs cock outs Leeds players gobs

Owls were shit 2nd half

PENNEY is either gonna be a star for us or make us pots of cash from a transfer
Nuihu is back to how he was before his new contract

1-1 was a fair result ..no matter what Sky call a chance ..most of them were less than half chances and none better than Penneys shot in the 2nd half

possession and passes in your own half mean nothing ..as we all well know ..stick yer stats sky!!

All in all a decent point against a pacy side .. onto WBA ..

MATCH RATINGS HALF FULL GLASS THAT MIGHT JUST BREAK ANYTIME SOON

DAWSON ...6Wobbled at times and at others looked better than martin hodge that seems to be teh only way i can sum him up at the moment ! but we should stick with him as westwood is the past and wildsmith is a striker Whistle

THORNILEY... 5Maybe Pudil made it hard for him after his performance at Villa park but he got laced the first half .. so much so that joss had to change the tactics to 4-4-2 to protect him hence losing us 2 points! Pudil plays the next game for me if we are to go 3 centerbacks and either he goes or lees plain and simple!

LEES...5Probably his best game so far this season but his donkey ass jockying is a thing of the past and he cost us the second goal by doing so .. hes turned into loovens overnight please get rid at xmas santa Thumb up

HECTOR...6Undropable at the momenthad a decent game got a foot in many a time held us together better in midfield the first half and is going to be key against WBA next week having now lost BOT BOT Doh

BAKER...5Out of his depth the first half andmade mistake after mistake he did have a better second half but should find hinslef if not injured ? losing his place to palmer who seems to have grown a pair of bollocks of late Huh

PENNEY..7 MOM FOR US ANYWAY He was our best player and nearly scored the winner i dreamed of last night Angry not to be this time hopefully it will come against the scrubbers Thumb up he did however make some silly desiciones with his final ball more than once but hes only 9 games into the championship so no problems for me pure talent and a breath of fresh air as far as Wednesday are concerned Thumb up

PALMER..6Came on and looked like a veteran Thumb up made us solid in defence but as usual in attack he has nothing Doh i do feel he won us apoint tonight though as baker struggled defending and attacking! palmer just came on an slowed things down Thumb up

Summary defence and wingbacks
A 3-5-2 turned into 4-4-2 the second half because thorniley was getting raped and lees was doing feffall as a captain again Doh maybe it was just a good leeds team or maybe we should take heed and not pair this lot up again ? pudil wins his shirt the next game..... and ffs make him captain he didnt do half bad last year when he got the chance hector is helping lees out loads so for me baker and thorniley have to sit it out palmer comes back aswell so hector can play midfeild more becasue lets face it lees is screwing joss and wont ever be dropped Doh

MINGE.... 6Did his david & butterfuck impression for 30 minutes in the first half Doh and then decided he would play and start winning some battles and actually making us tick as Bannan was man marked to pieces by a rapido scum midfield Thumb up still he doesnt convince me much hes like a poormans Gary shelton !
but maybe thats all we should exspect Doh

BANNAN....6Tried his hardest but was man marked with speed by a faster leeds midfield out of the game and couldnt get a foot hold ! bannanis the best player in the league on his day and is also the easiest to take out when the math has been calculated correctly ! we will miss him badly though still against WBA and quiet frankly i dont see how we will cope unless we just go for it and play goalie wag with 5 strikers Whistle

REACH...7In the first half he was at his worst by his standards this season and then that goal Thumb up had a better second half and nearly won us the game yet again single handed and this is him playing bad Huh hes night and day from the player we first signed hes actually worth 10 million at the momenet and not a fiver or the 5 we signed him for ! he is going to be key for the WBA game lets hope he keeps the good work up Thumb up

Midfield summary and tonight we got overun but i dont think joss could do anything else than sit back like we did against Villa it would have been suicide to have taken possesion agnst the fastest team ive seen yet this season! and that is painfull to type Doh they did a good job in all but no matter of the result we now have to figure out how we are going to play without Bannan and the only blueprint joss has is Reach and maybe hector after showing yet again he can mix it ! matiass is needed now more than that new feffing signing we always seem to get with mr cliche i feel Doh

FESSI...5i could have subbed hi at HT if it wasnt for his energy dont get me wrong he caused problems but when asked to graft its like asking micheal angelo to build an feffing wall and whitwash the feffing thing Doh if we are going to play him then its either as a striker or forget it ! yes he plays something special as a grafter aswell but sometimes you have to concede tonight he should have gone at HT or change the game to his liking ..you cannott have it both ways with fessi and we know this Doh

FLETCHER...5Ref didnt help but he didnt have a good game in the first half he didnt exsist and was not linking any play up he did try though but he is still he never seems to play well with fessi so for me this pairing is in the bin its one or the other Thumb down

joao & bob ....6 looked much better as a pairing chased down better showed more skill without the effort and if others hadnt been so tired might have won us the game for me these 2 play the next game with matiass simple fessi sits it out Thumb up joao does things without the effort that fessi puts in and bob the same when you compare him to fletcher Thumb up and maybe the young preston should get some game time to wake up the likes of these superstars ? it seemed to work the last time he played also preston can do he work in midfield without diving allover the xxxx floor and being so fast like fessi that there is no support Doh thats what happened tonight fessi went chasing on his own and forgot his team are not at the same level ! preston wont do this nor will his balls shrivel ! we need to bring the forwards closer to the midfield simple Thumb up there is no point playing headless chicken on yer jacks no matter how good you are Doh

JOSS...8Set the tactics how i wanted Big Grin let them have the ball lets hit them on the counter perfect Thumb up shame he picked fessi who was too quick for everyone but and that pudil and matiass were injured because pudil for me could have been the difference tonight and it cost him the game defending thorniley !!!!perfect tactics for a very good leeds team .. very good and they have 4 star players out ffs Doh alot of respect for joss after the last 2 games and if he can guide us to 3pts next week without bannan it will be a masterstroke ! hector is a great signing aswell might i add Thumb up so little by little joss is making a difference Thumb up
