Charlie's Optimistic Ratings!!

Great and much needed 3-0 win.  Could have been 5 easily, although they did have some chances early in each half.  Aside from their 15 min spells in each half we dominated the game, creating by far the better chances!!

Wildsmith - 7, aside from a mix up with Van Aken he didn't put a foot wrong.  Good distribution as well.

Reach - 6, maybe a bit harsh but he was definitely the busier FB with most of their efforts coming down his wing.  Not a ton of help ahead of him as Bannan was floating into the middle.
Van Aken - 6, still early for him, mix up with Wildsmith but aside from that he was solid.  Good with the ball at his feet and can play a pass better than Lees.
Lees - 7, didn't really put a foot wrong and seemed to lead more than he has been doing.  Dangerous on set pieces for us, needs to do more of that!!
Hunt - 7, him and Wallace were dominating their wing before the injury, hope its not too bad but it looked liked he knew something had gone in his knee.

Bannan - 8, started on the left but was more effective when he came more central.  Works so hard and when he runs forward with the ball he always causes problems.
Lee - 8, him and Bannan get each other, one sits the other goes forward and vice versa.  Great goal as well.
Jones - 6, did nothing special, but then thats his job.  Protected the back 4 and when he gets the ball he makes the simple pass to Bannan or Lee.
Wallace - 7, very good down the wing with Hunt and much better set pieces.  Will get himself sent off at some point with his stupid antics.

Hooper - 9, MOM, should have had 4 goals today, scored 2, hit the bar and missed another good chance.  Worked hard all match and was involved in all our good forward play.  Top scorer in the Championship now with 7 goals!!
Fletcher - 7, works well with Hooper but still doesn't win enough headers for me, hold the ball up ok.  Should have scored in the first half.

Subs
Palmer - 6, couple of shaky moments but on the whole did ok, looked good going forward.
Butterfield - 6, held his own, more defensive than Bannan but that allowed Lee to get forward more.  Did the job he was brought on to do.
Rhodes - N/A, not on long enough to rate, but did set up Hooper nicely when he hit the bar.

CC - 7, Got the team selection right on the day and the subs made sense.  Not much else he can do I suppose, players let him down last week, they kept him employed this week!!!

Officials - 7, thought the ref did well, he let challenges go, didn't flash the cards when he could have and allowed the game to flow which maybe suits us better.  Both linesmen though made poor decisions for both teams but especially for Lee who was a yard onside of two defenders near him!!

I'd give Jones, Wallace and Reach (Left Backs Union ) at least 1 more mark Chaz.

The ref wasn't bad and only got his cards out after 95 minutes but both assistants were absolute shite for both teams and really let him down Perhaps the ref should have booked them early on

I thought we were going to get robbed again after Lee's goal and the penalty that would have been given to every other home team in the World

My main worry though was all the empty seats in the Owls sections. Is it the fans voting with their feet or was it a combination of cost/time/being on telly Whatever the cause it was a shit attendance against the Beasts of Beeston who looked to have brought about 4000 so it looks as though some of the ST holders have gone missing too

Still not convinced by Carlos though when we get 4pts from Noblot, Tarn & Miwwawwl things won't be half as rosy for him.

someone said a pundit ? o yes that knobhead from the star who talks through his nose which actually looks like a nob ...mmmm don howson yes him that dickhead anyway he said that the games coming up after the international pile of feffing nobody gives a feffing shite or an wank about are easy and he mentioned Derby away Derby away easy we could only just win the feffers when we had waddle hirst and shezza on the same pitch ffs this makes the Bolton game a win it or feff off with yer 20 quid you stuborn liitle man

Beat Bolton and youve bought yourself another week thats all

[Jacko The Flopsy Piglet]

exaggerated ? like how losing to sheffield united at home by an historic 4 goals !! carlos has bought himself time thats all but it will all come to fuckall should he not sort the defence out and only being able to play 1 style only !

As far as I remember we were due to get smashed to bits today because we were so bad last week, the season was all but over and Carlos couldn't manage his way out of a paper bag. So we lost last week, so what? We'll get over it, in fact I'm over it already. Today was a great pick me up. As far as I'm concerned, we win, I'm happy, we lose, I'm not, but I'm not going to get carried away too much either way. There's always another match round the corner to "look forward to".

[Maddix]

I get what you're saying Jacko but we all know that Mr Hyde will turn up at Noblot and they will record their first win of the season

[Imre varadi]

So we lost last week so what ? ffs you might get a job with him with that sort of attitude and the season is well and truly fucked if we dont turn at least 4 wins in next month

AND IM HAPPY BUT NOT HAPPY CLAPPING..... DIFFERENCE our defence was shit today at least what i saw from the hihlights and the second half ! and any other team might have scored 4 would we have scored 5 ? maybe not when push comes to shuve becuase they are a team of bottling wankers

[St Charles Owl]

I didn't think the defense was bad today!!! There was one mixup between Wildsmith and van Aken but aside from that Wildsmith had little to do. I think it harsh to say they were crap when we kept a clean sheet as well.

I thought that Wildsmith made a couple of excellent saves today. The one in the first half that was flagged offside but wasn't and one in the second half at the near post that Westwood would have let in

Should i type in spainsh or french charlie    that defence was there for the taking today like last sunday due to the fact that lees is not a captain or should i say a good one ! wildsmith played better than westwood has all season thats given    i didnt see hunt so i cant say ! but that line they have had since the start of the season trying to play the offside has never worked    Preston was the first xxxx up as Loovens let lees get caught and he had to stick his leg out behind the defender ( remember refs and linesman are blind ) moving on fron that the Qpr game Loovens got injured when lees did him the same favour and Qpr scored    and there has been others    but the latest round of shit was United and clarke Birmingham and there goal and today if leeds had finished there  moves they could have had 4 on a sunday yet again    Aken is learning Lees isnt talking westwood is pure shite this season and while Reach played well attacking    he hasnt played well defending for a few games now    shall i mention Palmer and his perfect pass to a Leeds striker ? and jones (dogshit )left the whole thing open for attack in the second half he is xxxx usless    id rather have Hutch on the pitch with one leg or semi with one leg and one arm than this pile of dogshit   he got lucky like them today becuase we scored more and bannan an lee had a blinder    but when they dont  

[St Charles Owl]

Yes, L**ds had some decent chances as you would expect. That save Wildsmith made that was flagged offside in the end was top drawer!!

[peiowl]

Stop complaining imre et al. I didn't see any of the game as it wasn't on live stream on ididdle and I couldn't find a live stream elsewhere that didn't want me to become a member of their dubious offerings. So I put up with JP until the 81 minute mark when we got our third. Then I had to go. I think my racy pic of Susan had a lot to do with our win. I'll remember that for the next game.
