Somewhat the same: for me the most telling thing is the mood on this list. Normally it’s a place full of guys who would bitch and moan about a blowjob. Now some, dare I say it, optimism! Haven’t heard such positivity around these parts since before Woodgate and Bowyer went Paki kicking…

People are walking in with a smile on their faces and walking out genuinely excited by what they've seen. Even an impromptu chant of we are Leeds on the way out of the family stand yesterday! There's a buzz about the place I've not felt for a long long time and Monk deserves a ton of credit. I was/am definitely in the Cellino out camp but he deserves credit too for getting Monk and not appearing to be interfering anymore and for the quality signings we've made. For me, I think we need cover at centre back and up front but the most important signings this window are Monk , Bartley and Jannsson. Leeds are going up!

I take on board Dave's comments and Rich's scores on the doors. Totally agree. If anything there is something special about Gary Monk. He fashions the team to meet the circumstances (how much homework is being done here?). Shackling Ince right from the off and taking on a fairly pedestrian defence at every opportunity were to me the key to success. If I have a criticism and it's a small one, I was disappointed at some of the finishing. I still feel we should have had three in the first half and another in the second. And that is over and above the referee's decisions on two potential penalties. However three points are ours at just the right point in the season. The issuing of yellows to Leeds players is also a worry (especially in Hernandes' case) but quite often they come because this team is so commited which is a real bonus after some of the "leaner" games we have played. Note to Monk: discipline. To say I'm optimistic about the rest of the season is an understatement and I can't wait for that final whistle at Wigan on the last day of the season.
