[LU] Captain Rody
I see that Austin has not only been recalled but has been made captain - not sure yet if this is just for today or for the season (it may depend on whether Brian gets his man as far as transfers in goes) Also we will not know till it starts if Austin is a straight replacement for Tonge or if he will replace Green at the bottom of the diamond and Green moves up alongside Murphy) I think Ausitn could be tailor made for that holding role at the base of the diamond - whilst Greenh has played well there he does get caught in possession too often - we were lucky a few times v Chesterfield that him losing the ball in dangerous places did not cost us Time will tell. I also expect the Varney / Hunt partnership to be changed after an hour, depending on how things are going, with Smith and / or Poleon coming on to provide a different threat - I think this will be the case in most games up until Christmas at any rate (may change if Diouf replaces Ross who moves further forward alongside Hunt or Varney) Dave ___ 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

Austin is a liability - a wall of muscle and steel perhaps, but badly lacking skill or vision. Also, seems to incur a lot of bookings and suspensions. I'd get rid now instead of wasting resources trying to make him into something he quite clearly isn't. Strong words perhaps, but he's poor. 0-0 then at Leicester - dour old game perhaps, but it's early days for all. Defeat avoided must be a plus against a promotion favourite on their patch. Would have been more heartening had we created something. Anyway, I'll take the point gratefully.

Re: [LU] Captain Rody
Well I thought it was a good solid performance. We stopped them playing, we didn't carry any passengers and stopped them from playing. Austin man of match, whatever next! We've played two of the division's tipped teams and got 4 points, that'll do for me. I'm happy with all things Leeds at the moment, long may it continue. Looking forward to another sunny day on the piss celebrating a victory against Wednesday next Sat. Come on you doubters, come to the game and cheer up!

Re: [LU] Captain Rody
Not so much football more life I suppose One man's poison is another man's medicine. If every team has to carry a luxury donkey, then Rudy must be ours (captaincy and all) I used to get the same feeling when Carlton Palmer was on the ball or challenging somebody, but there was a comedy element with his playing style that made it vaguely entertaining if not unpredictable. I don't see this in Austin - he's predictably and consistently a poor passer and a conceder of free kicks. He will have better matches I'm sure from time to time and I'll be the first to congratulate him if and when he turns the corner. In the meantime though, he'll cost us.
