Well done Bang!

1-0 Really flattered Cov today and we should of had at least 2 in the 1st half alone still a win is a win and Max and Snodds were our best players today by far and good to get a clean sheet.

cant disagree with that, becchio missed two sitters first half,still feel we are a lot better playing 4-5-1 although not sure how you drop somma with him scoring a goal a game but he offers very little else and two up front takes howson out of his best role.

still think its wide open but looking at our fixtures i reckon we can make the top six then its a lottery,i wouldnt mind forest in the play offs they have a worse record than leeds for been play off bottlers.

Overjoyed at how we're doing this season. People were predicting that we'd struggle to compete at the beginning of the season because we spent nothing in the summer. Now we've made a good start to the season and rose to 2nd, people suddenly think we're having a bad patch, when in reality, we've had a run of league 1 defeat in 3 months.

There's no stupider group of people than football fans

I think it was more of the case that we'd just been promoted from division 3 and we'd struggle to compete in division 2 with those players. I was one of those at the start of the season who thought it would be a great season if we stayed up but I genuinelly think we have a top 10 team now. Yep we're doing well to be where we are but I think now we have one of the better teams in the championship. Take Coventry for example they've been in that league for years but we were miles better then them yesterday and we have a better team than them. I'd prefer it if we built a better team for a promotion push next season though!

I have mentioned it on here before, but our results on Saturdays vs results on other days record is ver lopsided. Was churning though some stats, and got the following.

League games only

Saturdays: P19 W13 L2 D4 F37 A18 43pts Avg Score 1.9-0.9 Avg Pts 2.3
Others: P11 W0 L5 D6 F18 A29 6pts Avg Score 1.6-2.6 Avg Pts 0.5

Whats so bad about us playing mid-week?

Just finished reading The Promise Land. Leeds United really haven’t had much luck at all

Re: OT - All New Leeds United thread : Sat Feb 12, 2011 8:15 pm  

Great result today. Was miffed that Swansea, Cardiff and Norwich all scored late winning goals though all results were going our way. Theres a 6 points gap now between 6th and 7th!
