Exactly. Once again we were robbed by the ref. Not just the penalty decisions.
The challenge on Alioski was virtually identical to the one Cooper got a red
card for. But their lad gets a yellow, ours gets a red and a four-game
suspension. Equally, Phillips was yellow-carded and got a two-game ban for
kicking the ball away a few weeks ago. Since then, I have watched opposition
players do exactly the same thing (including today) without getting so much as
a warning glance from the ref. Radz and Orta have to understand this. You
cannot build a Leeds squad thinking you're going to win the percentages in
narrow games. This isn't football manager l(much to Orta's dismay - apparently
his only real claim to fame is being the data guy for the Spanish version of
this). This is the Championship, and the League and its refs hate us. You need
to have a squad that will leave the refs no option but to allow us to win the
game. We need to be absolutely bulldozing teams, not trying to win by the odd
goal, because, as we've seen in the last few games, if it's that tight, the
refs will hand it to our opponents.
I am still angry at Orta for letting for not replacing the spine of our team
this summer with players that were as good or better,, It's mid-February. How
many first-team goals have Ekuban, Grot and Roberts scored between them? If
Orta doesn't figure this division out by the summer, either he has to go, or
we'll be in a relegation battle next season.
Cheers!

missed the first 15 of the second half so all the good stuff happened then (?)
because I saw very little the last 30 to put that display up there. And did not
feel Sheffield were in that much trouble from what I saw. But christ are they a

wrote: Very disappointed with the result because I don't think we deserved
to lose that. I said that it was Hecky's luck that Roofe went off and so it was
because Pablo was the difference as we ran them ragged. Also having slagged the
defence off first half I thought the Pennington and Jansson were excellent
second half. BUT we just shoot ourselves in the foot again with some brainless
defending by O'Kane in the area. I thought their player had lost control of the
ball and there was no need to even tackle him. O'Kane tried to pull out but
just lack of a brain made him leave his foot in. Here's my scores:Wieldwald -4.
What was he doing for the penalty - he was stood behind the fucking line.
That's hardly going to intimidate Sharp. Also, he's still playing ridiculous
balls out from the back that immediately put us under pressure. Hasn't Hecky
told him not to do this ! Maybe Hecky hasn't watched any videos of us ? Dallas
- 5. I think most of their danger came down their left and whilst Dallas
defended well at times he isn't a right back and was out of position many
times. You only have to look at the pen and ask what the hell was O'Kane doing
in that position making tackles in the box ? Where was our right back. I still
don't know what Dallas is ? I think he could be a decent player ?DeBock - 4. To
be fair, he improved second half but I have major concerns about his pace and
defending ability. First half he was shocking. Jansson - 7. Much better second
half and unlucky with his chance. First half though there was a lot of
schoolboy defending from him.Pennington - 7. Same. I think he deserves and
needs a run in the team now. I think he's got potential at this level. Forshaw
- 6. Average, tidy on the ball and pushed forward second half but I'd see him
as yet another pedestrian midfielder. Better player on the ball than other 2
midfield strollers. Philips - 4. He didn't do anything wrong, he didn't do
anything effective , he strolled around, got a few challenges but ultimately
this is not good enough if we want to progress. Hecky pushed him up front
second half because he'd obviously heard he'd scored some goals several moons
ago. I was happy for Hecky to realise that didn't work and he pulled him off.
O'Kane - 2. Captain's performance ? I hate seeing him dropping deep gettting
the ball and doing fuck all with it. He's lightweight and not good enough. What
was he doing for the first goal ?Roofe - 0. I don't think there's anymore to
say about Roofe - everyone can see it now. He's not good enough to play in this
league. Lasogga - 7. Worked hard and actually caused some problems up front.
Great goal and he looked like he wanted it today. Allioski - 4. What a
frustrating player. Moaning, losing possession, falling over. He's not good
enough. Yes he'll poke in the odd goal cos he does have a nice left foot but I
don't want a player who spends 90% of his time cheating. An embarrassment to
the club. Subs:Hernandez - 8. Man of the match. Ekuban - didn't do much but
there's something I like about this kid and I'd like to see him play alongside
Lasogga. Sacko - FFS can we get rid of this lad. He actually had the ball in 3
good positions and everytime he failed to play a simple ball. He's not a
footballer just a runner. What is the point of him ? Hecky - I'm hoping he can
build on this. Bring in Ekuban , build on the defence and sort them out. With
Saiz returning I'm hoping he can the balance right with Hernandez, Saiz and the
three strollers. I think we will end the season strongly. I'm reading lots of
negativity on Twitter and yes first half was poor but given where we are at the
moment I'd put the second half up there with the better performance this
season. From: Joe Skinner <[email protected]> To: Richard

later he has to go off. It takes us 3 minutes to get a sub and are playing with
10 men for that time. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON ? Complete and utter shambles
from Leeds management team. Surely we would have Pablo ready after that ? I
think Sheff Utd are not the team they were at ER but we've just got too much
average on the pitch. O'Kane , Philips , Forshaw are all the same player and
Allioski and Roofe are liabilities most of the time. I think Roofe going off
his Hecky's piece of good luck today. Let's hope Pablo can do something. I
worry about our defending at times. The chance were Clarke got in , everyone
just watched him and nobody got goalside - basics. And then Billy Sharps header
after he had scored, Pontus wrong side due to the zonal marking. It's fucking
awful to watch players not doing basics. From: Rob Heath
