Sean, you're beginning to sound a bit like Blackwell.
Your match report is a desperate post. I think it's
funny that you go on about being Leeds through and
through and they won't get rid of you etc and your
match report tries desperately to defend what was by
anyones opinion a poor display by Leeds but then you
almost console yourself by laughing at Killa (our best
defender by a mile yesterday by the way) and making
him the scapegoat for the last two defeats That's sad
and not very Leeds is it Sean ?

My report to follow ...... the reality !
