I must admit first thought when i saw the team - was oh god that must be the worst Leeds team ever - but can't argue with the result. The short review from Mr Turford at half-time last night was - one each 2 poor goals from 2 sh*t teams - and at full-time "Leeds game was like Lards v Benelux Lards, shite but lit up by a Woolmer esq style free kick." Speaking of the short-arsed baldy Lards manager - he's doing the London marathon this year and anyone who wants to sponsor him can do so via - www.justgiving.com/adiesmarathon

When the team was announced with no Nicholls, no Flo and no Derry we feared the worse, surely a midfield of Sa , Douglas, Howson and Thompson would be overrun and we would be in for a hammering ? Instead the team went for it, fighting and contesting every ball and at times playing some decent pass and move football. Once again Marques made everyone wonder why he was not given a chance earlier, Sa continued to impress, Thomspon looked a class apart and Douglas covered every blade of grass putting in one tremendous goal saving tackle. We deservedly went one up when a floated free kick was poked in by Heath , the second was another great free kick from Thompson. Hull never really threatened and never put us under any real pressure - they were pretty awful in truth. The goal came when we failed to clear a free kick wiht Lewis colliding with another Leeds player resulting in the ball falling kindly for the Hull player to score from a yard out. But despite this equalising goal coming in the dying seconds of the first half we refused to crumble and cmae out for the seond half seemingly full of confidence. So all in all a good result and performance even thought the gloss was taken off a little bit when news filtered through that we were now bottom of the league. For the person who asked about Tom Elliott - since he did not get on the pitch it is impossible to comment on his ability but he certainly looked very tall and thin when he was warming up - think a young black Peter Crouch !!!
