I pretty much agree with all of that except to add to the last couple of paragraphs.
Beckford didnt have a bad game yesterday - he worked hard enough and got little service. Casper definitely didnt have a bad game - unfortunately he was probably our best player.

Clearly these quotes have been doctored to point the finger at him but it wasn't necessarily talking about Beckford. He does my head in I admit and he isn't my favourite but, we don't want or need to cash in, we need to add to him. Yes he is stupid, can't speak in interviews, badly advised but he isn't responsible for the 3 goals at Swindon, 2 at Exeter or 1 v Wycombe. He might miss a few, have a lazy moaning attitude but he has scored 21 goals! Becchio might work hard do more of the things the fans expect of a Leeds player, but he hasn't scored 21 goals, grella and Gradel might have that off the bench impact but they haven't scored 21 goals either. Our current collapse slump slide towards the play offs and another season in League one isn't Beckford's fault and if anything he is the reason we aren't 6th or something! It looks like he is staying now till the end of the season, a sh1t night at the county ground doesn't mean he has given up, head's elsewhere etc... You could say exactly the same about Casper, outstanding v Spurs but not the same level of performance v Swindon, is his head elsewhere, should we cash in?? _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
