I agree with the comments about taking off the two strikers, having said that
Lassogga was clearly limping before roofe was subbed and I expected Lassogga
to be the one taken off. TC is quoted as saying that Roofe actually came to the
bench and asked to be substituted since he was 'running on empty'
That makes his decisions more defensible (although we can question why Roofe is
not fit enough to last 90minutes albeit when he had had to run around more due
to Cooper's red)Once he had to take off the two frontmen then he should have
brought on either Sacko who despite his obvious limitations has pace and would
have kept them occupied, or Cibicki who has played down the middle
Whatever, when you get 3 2 up from 2 0 down against a team who have not won
away all season then you should have got all 3 points. The fans, once the
comeback started, did their bit and the atmosphere at times was brilliant

a few hungover comments from me:
Lasogga scored two good goals and hopefully he will now push on but if he'd put
the 2 easier chances away in the first half I think we would have won this.
Our defending before Cooper got sent off was all over the shop. Their lad
Cooper won everything in the air and we should have had Jansson man marking him
rather than letting De Bock mark him. Terrible organisation at the back.
We are going nowhere with Cooper as captain and defender. Yes he's muddled
through a few games on the back of Jansson but we all know that when it comes
to the crunch he will fail. Hopefully Pennington will come in and take his
chance.
The new lad De Bock looks to have a nice left foot but for me he seems a little
static and he could be a liability.
Steve Morrison - I always rated him but he was never fit at Leeds so we never
saw the best of him.
and finally I believe TC lost us this game. 3-2 up he decided to close down any
attacking options we had and go with 3 centre backs. He invited Millwall on and
guess what, they scored 2 goals. We're not good enough at defending to do that
Thomas. I think some of his decisions and tactical nous are lacking.
Season looks like fizziling out.

Not a clue where to start (or finish) with this one - in some ways one of the
strangest games I have ever seen in over 40 years of watching Leeds
It was the game that literally had everything 7 goals and a red card, us
getting hammered then the best comeback ever and then nothing to show for it
against a team who had not won away all season, and, if that was not enough a
performance by steve morrison that is up there with the best performances of
anyone ever at ER - and yes I did say steve morison, you know steve morison
that Warnock bought to replace Becchio, steve morison that played lots of games
for Leeds and scored three (?) goals . steve morison that had the best
individual performance at ER since probably Thierry Henry or to quote Leeds
fans today "F**K Morison, F Morison " repeat over and over
