I know I'm a bit a late with this, struggled to get to a PC for the last couple of days; booze; hangovers; booze; birthdays; Red Riding DVD; The Wire boxset etc...but, last home game of the regular season...just few things to add to Dave's words.
- attendance - where would you have squeezed another 6,500 in ER on Saturday...? - N'hants were rubbish - came with the sole intention of not losing and failed - We were "workmanlike" for the first half - Becchio's thumped header from a full 4 yards out was a deserved lead, mainly because we'd been trying to score, at least. - Snodgrass made a huge difference - he looked refreshed - and suddenly we had guile in our attacks - one of his first balls was the nicely weighted and disguised ball through for Beckford's 34 (?) of the season. - Robbo missed a sitter - Frazer came on, rather puzzlingly at left back for 20 minutes - and looked exactly what he was, rusty and out of position... - v cute quick free kick, give and go, by Robbo for the third, followed by an excellent cross and emphatic finish by Snodgrass - this came in the 90th minute - 34,000 ish people jumped up and down, except the bloke next to us who was set to win £80 on "2-0 to Leeds with Becchio scoring the first..." who just yelled "bugger". - some young ladies got v excited by Delph's taking off of his shirt in front of the Kop on the lap of honour - for someone who looks so slight on a football pitch, he has a fine pair of pecs on him And so to fourth and Millwall. Credit has to be handed to Grayson, I don't know quite what his average is but it looks like something in the order of 2 points per game. And as Dave rightfully pointed out, Macca deserves some thanks, not only for "finding" Becchio (despite what I think of his qualities as a player, his hard work and his goals this season can't be ignored) and Snodgrass, but also for giving some of the youngsters a go - Delph, White, Parker...etc --------- _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
