I was SO proud of the lads yesterday! Before the game, I was quite ambivalent about it, and perfectly prepared to accept a loss to prevent Hull going up. But once it started, I was desperately hoping we would win it. When it was 1-1 and Hull had just blown their game at home, even then when a Watford goal would have been completely crushing for Hull, I still wanted us to hang on............and Macca's goal was just a brilliant moment.
Not for the first time, I thought the much-maligned Brown-Tongue partnership was very good. Considering that it was a way weakened team - no Warnock, Austin, Diouf, Byram - playing against a good footballing side with so much to play for........well, it was a fantastic, committed performance. Can we dare to hope? McD has shaken off most of the hoodoos now............we've won on a tuesday, we've scored a first half goal, we've even won away! I don't think we have conceded any 90+ minutes point-snatching goals under him either. Now he needs to do the same next season with our hoodoos against Derby, Birmingham and Barnsley. P.S. Anybody else watching the snooker? How bad was that Hawkins-Walden match? I'm surprised they ever got it finished, considering how hard they were finding it to pot anything. _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] MARCHING ON TOGETHER
