Strange game, Leeds fans more interested in what is alleged to be happening off the pitch than on, a strange mix of a UKIP conference - loads of anti-Italian chants and a Religious revivalist meeting, with lots of old favourites getting an airing "play all the way" and "Geldard Boot Boys" and cries of undying love for the team.
On the pitch we were the best team in the first half and if Sharp had converted the penalty we'd have been deserved leaders at half time. But as always we looked fragile at the back and the midfield let them run at our defence too often and eventually they scored. Not seen the Penalty but Taylor didn't look convincing and Silvestri is the one foreign import we really miss. Some decent build up play tended to fizzle out before becoming really threatening. Taylor and Byram got forward and there were a few decent crosses but nobody there to get on the end. Montenegro and Dawson on for the last few minutes and Dawson got a really good cross in right at the death, but it was bundled away. Yes, I was there when Morison scored, but nothing he showed made it look like he'd add to that in any way shape or form. After the goal there was 10 minutes of sarcastic "Steve Morison" chants.. we were being sarcastic weren't we? Lots of Time to go Massimo chants, but We don't need a change of owner or manager, just some stability (and half a dozen decent players) Rudi man of the match, no doubt, almost all of his shots and passes hit the target and ran himself ragged, maybe his slowing down in the 2nd half coincided with Charlton getting on top? Bamba had a good game as well, including the obligatory couple of nightmare passes/dribbles. Dawson had 10 minutes and didn't score a hatrick, so we should get rid straight away ;) We were loads better than at Fulham my last game, but we lost - weird game football. Leeds aren't we? ttfn Richard _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org MARCHING ON TOGETHER
