Can't believe he hasn't even made the Scotland squad yet, he wouldn't look out of place in the premier league.

Cracking day out yesterday, the atmosphere created by the Leeds fans was the best I've ever experienced & definitely beats going to places like Hereford, Port Vale & Carlisle.

As for the comments about Jonny Howson having a crap game.....rubbish, he was everywhere on the pitch and people have to remember that Ben Parker's been out for a season and a half so to contain someone like Theo Walcott in his 2nd game back after 18 months out would be a big ask even to the likes of Ashley Cole.

Now show me where I have pulled them to bits hey?
So you thought Parker had pace and Howson and Johnson played well?
If you care to look at my opening comments you will see I said great result even though Arsenal were poor.
Now go away and think of something else hey.

yep, i thought johnson and howson played well

It`s funny really how different people see different things on the day. I honestly felt Howson was slow and wanted too much time on the ball. As for Johnson again I noticed little coming from him during the game. My mistake with Parker I had not realised he had been out for so long. Who normally plays LB?
Again I accept that we made Arsenal look poor due to out tenacity on the day.
I actually thought we would get well beat 3-1 maybe 4-1.
Shows what I know. I`ll stick to RL in future. Now I know lots more about that!!!

George McCartney, had him on loan but gone back now. Thought Johnson did well, all action and energy which is all you can ask of a limited footballer

I suppose there is a perspective side of it. Johnson & Howson could be described as quiet, but you could also say that the arsenal midfield was generally quiet too, in which case JOhnson & Howson did their jobs pretty well. It was never a a game where the leeds midfield would be running the game, but to keep a very fluent passing side quiet is a good sign

Im sure captain birdseye will have the East stand upper open for this one might be a "bit" of a rush to get hold of them though.

My mate was all set to get me 2 tickets this morning when he went down but I called him at last minute to cancel. Can't really afford 60 quid plus spending money atm so I'll go to another game in a couple of weeks!
