Just a few belated thoughts to add to those already posted about the Fulham game.
I thought the abuse of McCormack was well over the top. He was a faithful servant to us, scored all our goals for some time, and we sold him for more money than any of us thought we'd get. 'There's only one greedy bastard' the Leeds cried, but who of us wouldn't go to do the same job we're doing now, just somewhere else, for three times the money? Whoever posted about the church being in The Omen, thanks. I really enjoyed the walk to the ground, with lights the of London reflected on the river, the atmospheric park, interesting architecture and a church (the Omen one as it turns out) I commented on to my fellow fans at the time. And I also really enjoyed Fulham's proper floodlights, on towers, which could be seen for miles around. It's the proper way to illuminate a night match. The Craven Cottage in the corner rivals Bolton's old corner corner shop for weirdest thing I've seen in a football ground. I expected Hansel and Gretel to come on as subs (it was my first time there). The terrace we were in does move alarmingly as we all jumped up and down. I did not enjoy the Hillsborough crush at half time. The queue for the bar was five or six deep when I joined it, and grew and grew as more Leeds came down to join it at the break. You couldn't move at the front and it was not a comfortable experience at all. I got searched on my way in to the ground, but none of the multiude of stewards were on hand to help out in the bar or the concourse. Murco's goal was a scuffed bouncer, but he was in teh right place at the right time, and took his chance. Don't think Steve Lessison would. Why does Morison get so much adoring chanting from the fans? Has some helpful Leeds fan been handing leaflets out on the effects of positive reinforcement in the hope it will improve his game? I had a great day out, away games are way more fun than home games. Sadly my Russel Crowe prediction didn't happen. Didn't see Richard Osman either.
