Quite a few bookings – don’t recall Perkins getting that yellow, but then I was doing a lot of singing!!
We certainly were! Yeah – quite a dirty game but that’s what you get playing them! lol Up the U’s”
White back – better news than Perks out, alas last weekend!
The worst we have played all season. Certainly the lowest number of shots and shots on target but still edged the stats. We always expected a tight game and thats what it was. Unlucky with thye second beckford effort judged offside as it was a good goal. Five out of five nd another difficult away game out of the way.
Honest assessment of the game, I think. I know I don’t want to admit it, but Leeds as a club must live in a different world: everyone comes out to meet the club and make it as hard as possible to beat you… the chants, the pumped-up atmosphere! There must be no such thing as an easy or boring game for you guys and that means, because the opposition raise their game every week to match you, that your team must have an even better squad than expected to start with… I think. Decent game!
