Brown is a horrible niggly slow bastard. Can't stand him.

Sure they deserved the victory but not by that much. First half they were the better team but we battled hard, seemed to miss Tate in central defence but overall we did a good job and Ashdown in goal was equal to whatever they threw at us. Then a great pas by Byram? put Thomas free on the left and he delivered an inch perfect pass to Becchio who scored probably the best goal I've ever seen him score. That was not an easy finish. Second half they equalised right away with a soft goal though Ashdown had made some great saves beforehand to keep us in the game so I can't fault him too much. I was actually quite pleased with our response to that equalizer, we didn't give up and I felt we gave them a right go at that point. Then they went 3-1 up in the blink of an eye and then it was game over, we lost heart and Warnock did too, he took off Thomas and Diouf to (hopefully) rest them. They knew it w as game over, we tried to press and then got caught for the fourth goal. Fifth goal I missed so don;t know how that happened. Positives - Byram had a good game, Ashdown did well except for the one goal. Thomas was a threat, and I thought Tonge was solid and Lees did a good job. Our team did pretty well against the second most expensively assembled side in the world, this wasn't Chelsea second team, they had some serious heavyweights in there and as somebody pointed out they had around 130M in firepower up front. Negatives - Peltier is out of his depth at premiership level, he got pulled all over the place. Brown is an "enforcer" but is otherwise rubbish, my Chelsea supporting brother was actually quite impressed with Leeds' overall play, except for Brown, and agreed 1-5 was a flattering scoreline. My only concern from this game is that after working so hard and doing pretty well for 60 minutes, we'll be demoralised by the thrashing. All in all for the 80 odd minutes I saw I feel I can hold my head up high by the effort Leeds put in.
