Re: [LU] Blackburn

[John Lee via Leedslist]

I thought Bamford pulled out tbh, and at best it was 50/50 as to whether it 
even was a foul in my eyes. If there was contact, it was a very light touch. I 
thought the ref probably got it right - had Bamford really committed he might 
have been a yard further on and in the box, but that’s another discussion :-)

Re: [LU] Blackburn

[Scott1cairns1]

He def played for it which makes me sad. He could’ve had a go at chipping the 
keeper. Anything better than that. 

Best regards,Scott.

Doesn’t that just perfectly show how difficult being a ref is.  We’ve got 
unlimited replays, albeit from only a couple of angles, and the we’ve come up 
with 3 different outcomes.

Re: [LU] Blackburn

[Joe Skinner]

You could argue their disallowed goal was very soft Harrison wasn't fouled, he 
was dallying. 

When you look at our first goal and a lot of people say it should've been 
disallowed as well... technically hitting the post is off target but even so it 
was close until they ran out of steam.

Do we think playing 4 defenders gives the rest licence to roam better? Instead 
of playing midfielders at full back?

White was immense, even striding about up front, not panicking about defending 
knowing he had actual defenders back there.

Thought Harrison was quiet on the right. He's better on the left. Possibly 
agree that him, Costa (and Roberts) is all a bit flimsy and lightweight 
together.

and it really could have gone either way. They hit the post and had really good 
opportunites that they should have put away. But once we scored through some 
brilliant harrying from Klich there was only going to be one winer. Blackburn 
put everything into that first 45 minutes and as a result had little to offer 
in the 2nd half apart from one spectacular free kick, which was never a free 
kick in the first place, Philips was just trying to get out of the way. Our 
fitness levels are top notch and with 10 minutes to go rather than just hanging 
on for the win we continually pushed forward in wave after wave and really 
should have doubed out total. Even Douglas was crossing in the area late on. 
For me, this was by far our best performance since the restart and I think it's 
a performance that tips the momentum our way again. I think playing without 
Costa gave us a more solid look and maybe playing with Harrison and Costa 
together is too much of luxury. Meslier (silent S apparently) - 7. I thought he 
did well throughout. I worry about their goal as he his completely reliant on 
the wall when he stands that far left of the goal. It invites the taker to put 
it in top right corner and when he did, Meslier didn't even move. Compare that 
to Philips, at least their keeper was able to get across and make an effort, 
Ayling - 8. Bac kto his best, some good defence work and did well getting 
forward too. Douglas - 7. Arguably his best game for Leeds. Still unsure about 
his defensive abilities. Cooper - 8. Solid.
White - 9. Man of the match for me. Commanding with and without the ball. Luton 
was a blip. Allioski - 7. I thought he was busy and really worked hard. Could 
have had a couple himself if he had a brain when it comes to keeping on side. 
Klich - 9. I thought this was Klich at his best. His energy levels and work 
rate in that foirst half were incredible but more importantly he was creating 
chances and mking things happen. Glad he got his goal. 

Phillips - 8. Much better from Kalvin. His free kick was top drawer an 
hopefully we'll see more of these now he's bagged one. I thought he linked up 
the midfield well and worked hard. Harrison - 7. Not as involved as usual but 
certainly had his moment. Bamford - 5. I thought he was poor whether it was 
keeping onside or playing a simple pass straight to the opposition. Yes he got 
his goal and hit the post with two side footed shots but he needs to push on. 
Roberts - 5. Didn't do much.
Subs:
Hernandez - lively as always
Shack - came on and looked lively, I like Shack.
So on to Stoke, Thursday at 5pm , how fecking stupid is that ?

 Agree 100% that the keeper should have got a red for that foul, referees not 
applying the laws / rule is one of the most annoying aspects of football - I 
can accept them making mistakes but failure to apply the law should see them 
demoted

Re: [LU] Blackburn

[Richard Walker via Leedslist]

 yep, there's an argument to give Bamford a higher score however even when he 
was put through and was taken out by the keeper the reason the red card wasn't 
gven is that Pat had lost control of the ball by pushing it too wide. It was a 
goo decision by the ref. He wouldn't have scored. His general play at times was 
poor. The way he gave away possession at times was criminal an you could hear 
Beckford getting frustrated with him for his lacking a striker's instinct. Just 
have a shot. So I'll stick with a 5.

Re: [LU] Blackburn

[nattan--- via Leedslist]

 When their lad missed the one on one I was trying to think of the last time 
someone actually missed a good chance against us? Cardiff 2 shots on target 2 
goals, luton one shot one goal, Fulham no real chances no goals.We got even 
luckier with the one that hit the post, and having watched it a few times, I 
still dont know why after it hit the post and Harrison faffed about with it , 
lost it, and they put it in the net, it was disallowed.  Thankfully we were one 
up by then and when that stayed the score after their ten minute spell , I 
always felt ok.
( I see Luton joined the huge ranks of teams who perform brilliantly against us 
then totally flop the next game,  5 0 at home ! Shows how much playing us takes 
out of teams)
Bottom line now is if we do as well / badly / averagely ( you pick how you 
think we have done) in the next 4 games as we have in the first 4 and get 7 
points, it means a win at home to ( hopefully) already safe / already relegated 
Charlton guarantees promotion even if Brentford win all their games, possible 
for them but a huge ask, since games v Charlton , fighting for survival and 
Derby,  fighting for the last play off place will not be easy.
The TV again puts us at a bit of a disadvantage with both West Brom and 
Brentford playing their midweek game before us - we could be only 3pts ahead of 
3rd going into it, so ramping up the pressure. Having said that I would not 
swap places with any other team

Re: [LU] Blackburn - still buzzing

[Ted]

Great report Dave!

Like you say - games like that make all the suffering worthwhile.  I can't
explain to a person who doesn't "get" football just what that last 5
minutes feels like,  Unbelievable.
The sheer joy when Roofe's header went in!  I'm bloody 60 now and I was
jumping around like my Grandkids on a sugar-rush!

What a few days its been!  I was lucky enough to be ringside in Manchester
for Josh's win against Frampton - what an incredible performance!  Then to
get back to the pub on Sunday to see us come from 2 down to beat Villa at
the death was just superb (plus I had a few quid on a JW/LUFC double at 7
to 1) - could it get any better?  YES! To go down 2-1 in the 91st minute
and to then get the win - I'm still buzzing now!

Who'd have thought we'd be top, and 6 points clear of 3rd at Christmas!
Happy days!

Ted H
p.s. I'm a Leeds fan though, and so have still got this "is it all going to
go wrong" worm in my brain! Goddammit.

  Must admit I side more with Nic on this one- I dont see how we have been 
'rumbled'. Blackburn scored both goals from straight forward corners delivered 
into the box and headed home. Whilst this is a vulnerability we cannot afford, 
it is not yet a habit and is not the worry it has been in the past.As far as I 
can tell no team has really altered their way of playing to combat Bielsaball 
and we have not bee bullied in the same way we were last timeWhilst I agree and 
accept Bielsa's 'all teams have 4 players out' at any time theory (and isn't it 
a pleasant change for a manager to accept that that is football and not to use 
it as an excuse?) we have been unlucky in the way the absentees have added up - 
v Swansea it was both centre halves, then for a while it was both strikers, 
then v Blackburn it was both full backs, rather than having one from each area 
of the team.
I think we will have a much better idea in a weeks time - we have a game that 
on paper should be a foregone conclusion v the bottom team (ipswich) and then 
another home game v a team below us in the league (Forest) albeit a top ten 
team. Following the defeat v Blackburn we need to win both of these - failure 
to do so will mean a fairly meagre return in out last 6/7 games. We all know 
that there are 'no easy games' in this Division so we will need to be at our 
best or at least 90% to win either of these games.
It is a very long hard season and there will be great results and poor results 
along the way (don't forget a Wolves side who almost strolled the Division last 
year , the best team by a mile, still lost 7 games.
Although we were beaten by Blackburn it could easily be argued that we deserved 
a point and they did not do enough in open play to deserve the win, so it is 
not as if we were beaten 4 0 or played off the pitch
We need to have faith and just enjoy the ride and the football (our goal on 
Saturday came at the end of a 14 pass move -or 9 if you start counting from 
when BPF last touches it- this despite the fact that (for the first time this 
season) I was screaming "hoof it / get it forward there is only a minute to go" 
from the comfort of my armchair. Bielsa has his way and he is sticking to it 
whatever, we either believe in it and him or we call for his head and get 
another manager in, and I know which I favour.
Hopefully we will have Izzy Brown and Patrick Bamford fit and ready for the 
Christmas period and that will be to quote the cliche 'like two new signings' 
and two good ones at that

I mentioned this after the Brentford game and it's holding true.

Teams have seen our pressing forward play  and used that against us. We
don't  appear to do very well at countering it. An ironic if not mildly
amusing picture.

Blackburn out-did us in many areas and as our glorious leader said "We only
really started to play when we were losing. This is a defect" or similar
words. There were huge questions asked at the start of the season whether we
could plays MB's style with the players we currently have and although we've
done remarkably well , I think we're looking vulnerable when teams play our
own style against us.

Re: [LU] Blackburn

[nat...@sky.com]

 Must admit I side more with Nic on this one- I dont see how we have been 
'rumbled'. Blackburn scored both goals from straight forward corners delivered 
into the box and headed home. Whilst this is a vulnerability we cannot afford, 
it is not yet a habit and is not the worry it has been in the past.As far as I 
can tell no team has really altered their way of playing to combat Bielsaball 
and we have not bee bullied in the same way we were last timeWhilst I agree and 
accept Bielsa's 'all teams have 4 players out' at any time theory (and isn't it 
a pleasant change for a manager to accept that that is football and not to use 
it as an excuse?) we have been unlucky in the way the absentees have added up - 
v Swansea it was both centre halves, then for a while it was both strikers, 
then v Blackburn it was both full backs, rather than having one from each area 
of the team.
I think we will have a much better idea in a weeks time - we have a game that 
on paper should be a foregone conclusion v the bottom team (ipswich) and then 
another home game v a team below us in the league (Forest) albeit a top ten 
team. Following the defeat v Blackburn we need to win both of these - failure 
to do so will mean a fairly meagre return in out last 6/7 games. We all know 
that there are 'no easy games' in this Division so we will need to be at our 
best or at least 90% to win either of these games.
It is a very long hard season and there will be great results and poor results 
along the way (don't forget a Wolves side who almost strolled the Division last 
year , the best team by a mile, still lost 7 games.
Although we were beaten by Blackburn it could easily be argued that we deserved 
a point and they did not do enough in open play to deserve the win, so it is 
not as if we were beaten 4 0 or played off the pitch
We need to have faith and just enjoy the ride and the football (our goal on 
Saturday came at the end of a 14 pass move -or 9 if you start counting from 
when BPF last touches it- this despite the fact that (for the first time this 
season) I was screaming "hoof it / get it forward there is only a minute to go" 
from the comfort of my armchair. Bielsa has his way and he is sticking to it 
whatever, we either believe in it and him or we call for his head and get 
another manager in, and I know which I favour.
Hopefully we will have Izzy Brown and Patrick Bamford fit and ready for the 
Christmas period and that will be to quote the cliche 'like two new signings' 
and two good ones at that

Teams have seen our pressing forward play  and used that against us. We
don't  appear to do very well at countering it. An ironic if not mildly
amusing picture.

Blackburn out-did us in many areas and as our glorious leader said "We only
really started to play when we were losing. This is a defect" or similar
words. There were huge questions asked at the start of the season whether we
could plays MB's style with the players we currently have and although we've
done remarkably well , I think we're looking vulnerable when teams play our
own style against us.

I presume they are allowed to show the game live as the only time they wouldn't 
be allowed to do so is Saturday from 3 to 5.

Cheers Dave, fuck me that's a cocktail of drugs.

As an official part-timer these wins will be drawing me back for the town game.

Re: [LU] Blackburn report

[Nick Allen]

Tend to agree with much Dave says.

Let's have the penalty incident right as it appeared to those of us in the 
ground (not saying Dave's wrong). Our corner from the right, over by Murphy, 
bit of head tennis, it's cleared up field, the game goes on, the ball goes into 
touch and the referee runs back 40 yards to see what the linesman is waving his 
flag about. We all thought it must be one of those corners that had bent out of 
play before coming back in...hence requiring that we all go back for a dead 
ball. Because there had been no visible casualties, no one on the ground, no 
appeal from Blackburn players (and trust me they were after the ref for 
everything), but no, he tells the ref something...which eventually gets Austin 
sent-off. One of the weirdest sendings off I've ever seen.

From then on a balanced but dull game ran away from us, some suicidal defending 
from Bellusci and later Cooper did for us. They got 3; hit the woodwork 3 
times; and Silvestri made a couple of belting saves.

But what's this rumour that Antenucci is on a contract that eventually 
penalises us if he scores too many goals...can that be right? With Leeds Utd 
possibly. It is the only reason on gods green earth that Morrison was selected 
ahead of him yesterday...and that allegedly Thompson got suspended for telling 
somebody that him and Redfearn's pick the team and they want Antenucci in there 
whatever the contracts say. None of this can be right can it...?

Very despondent after that second half yesterday and with the club in general.

 Not really sure what to say about today. Before the game we were talking 
 about Thompson, Redfearn, Antenucci and Red Bull. We agreed that if Thompson 
 was sacked for 'not being effective' it was harsh to say the least. If it 
 means Redders leaving then my mates were happy enough with that. The 
 Antenucci thing, as I pointed out, was a typical contract thing - I recall 
 going on the ER tour run by John McLelland and he told about himself winning 
 6 man of the match awards in 7 games and getting dropped , it turned out that 
 the team he was at had to pay £20k to his old team if he played 10games and 
 since promotion was not on the cards they did not want to pay it. So given 
 where we are in the League it makes some sense not to play Antenucci. As for 
 Red Bull, my only concern is will they honour my 20yrST? Overall we were 
 happy with RB but it would depend on how much they want to change things - 
 Red Bull of Leeds and and a new kit, no thanks. Leeds United sponsored by 
 Red Bull - yes please.As for LLTP or whatever the latest fans group is called 
 , of the 6 of us, all dyed in the wool, long time season ticket holders, not 
 one of us said we would pay £10 let alone £100 to put a 'fan' on the board.We 
 were also a bit unsure as to the Chris and Kevin stuff and this when 2 of the 
 lads actually knew one of them and went to Lloyds for the 'memorial' session. 
 I really do not want to upset anyone and I refuse to go to Turkey because of 
 it all, but I think it is a part of our history that we should all be aware 
 of but should not be marked every yearSo on to the game - what a waste of 
 time, a totally forgettable first half followed by total capitulation in the 
 second.We were slightly the better team for 40mins but did not really do much 
 and never really caused them any problems but they did have one chance that 
 hit the woodwork. I know it is hard for Redfearn but what was the point of 
 todays line up? Why did Dawson  Phillips not start ? We have 6 or so games 
 to go, games that are all pointless, so lets find out who is good enough ? Is 
 Dawson, who is the stand out player for the u21 Development squad , robust 
 and physical enough for this league ? Can Phillips cut it at this level and 
 why no Del Fabro or Montenegro ?We all knew after 5 minutes that this game 
 was a waste of time really and would tell us nothing. Even if by some fluke 
 Morison gets a goal, is there anyone who thinks he will go on a run and get 5 
 in the next 5 and start next season on fire?Whatever, the crowd had a good 
 silence for Kevin and Chris and got behind both Redfearn and Thompson without 
 slagging off Cellino or anyone else.We watched the game for 30 minutes with 
 nothing to excite or worry us. then came the defining moment. No-one round me 
 had a clue what had happened but suddenly the ref, with no one surrounding 
 him and no one on the floor etc was waving a red card around. Who was it 
 aimed at, what had they done ? No-one knew until after a few minutes Austin 
 went off down the tunnel. Was the ref right or wrong ? No idea and nor had 
 anyone near meWhatever, we saw out the last few minutes of the half, glad to 
 do so and thinking Redders had 20minutes to plan things and to, hopefully, 
 prove that stupid and false adage it is harder to play agianst 10 than 11 
 true. But he didn't

Re: [LU] Blackburn. Quick report.

I don't think we'll see multi camera coverage - you only get that for featured 
matches. We beat ourselves again.

 Watched this on a www single camera dodgy feed.
 Both teams playing the same style. Fast and tight passing - great to watch,
 especially for us. Hardly a hoof in sight.
 Not a huge amount of goal mouth stuff but entertaining none the less.
 Our goal came from half cleared corner - still anyone's game at that point.
 2nd half we slowed down and seemed to lose direction urgency and drive.
 Blackburn carried on as first half and were more likely to score.
 Their equaliser came from disaster in our defence. Keeper and defender
 couldn't decide who should clear a ball into the box and in the end neither
 did allowing speculative striker a tap in. (Head in hands stuff)
 After that we woke up again and the match carried on pretty much as first
 half. 
 We hit a post on a counter, but they were given a pen from what looked like
 a dive - I saw no replay, but gut reaction was a dive - ref gave it. Multi
 camera coverage will show what truly happened but we'll have to wait for
 that. 
 Frantic finish with us on top and them down to 10, but that's how it ended.
 I felt robbed as I was proud of how the team played and performed and
 Blackburn must know they were lucky to win this. Draw would have been a fair
 outcome
 A great game to watch, both teams deserve a standing ovation but very down
 hearted we walk away with nothing. Still, very very positive style of play.
 Neil Redfearn, I approve!

Re: [LU] Blackburn link here

[David Smail]

It's been coming for months. We are clueless and panic in possession which
normally leads to a hoof as the pressure and burden of possession gets too
much.
We have no money so don't expect any great signings - just the usual crop of
has beens. Interesting to see what happens though. Wouldn't mind losing
all the time if we were on the right track, but we're simply awful and I'm
nearing the point where disappointment gives way to becoming ashamed!
The good people of Leeds still paying to watch this? I raise my glass to you
all.

 Well not the start to the New Year that we wanted , especially when you

 Brighton.
 This was a game I thought we could win and yet at half time I was thinking
 that 2 nil flattered us and that only 2 poor finishes / clearances off the
 line stopped it being 0 4. At the other end I could not recall a shot or
 chance worthy of the name. Not good New Years Day fare for another plus 30k
 crowd.
 At least Brian was as dissappointed as us and made changes - bringing on
 Aribiyi at half time and then Poleon with 20mins to go in an effort to
 change things. Everything about this game showed up our failings - a keeper
 who can hardly move and cannot even take his own goal kicks, a midfield
 that cannot keep or pass the ball and 2 strikers who, although both decent
 in their own right, have no understanding or communication between them. I
 can remember as a lad when Granada Reports (our equivalent to Yorkshire
 Calendar) actually had a test with Keegan and Toshack to see if they were
 actually telepathic rather than just good at reading each others game - not
 much chance of anyone thinking Ross and Smith have any telepathy - quite
 the opposite, if Smith flicked it on Ross was waiting for the knock down,
 when Smith knocked it down Ross had gone ahead looking for the flick on.
 Despite Marius showing why he had got a new contract and both Lees and
 Pearce doing Ok we were ripped apart for their goals, Rhodes being left in
 miles of space for their first and their second a straight forward header
 from a set piece. Only a combination of Kenny and Lees and then a great
 tackle from Murphy stopped it being 4 nil.
 As is the norm now, a home team, losing at half time (and at the end) was
 booed off. When did that become accepted behaviour ? The few Prem and other
 Champ games that I have seen over the last few seasons have shown that
 almost irrespective of performance etc, a home team who are not winning are
 met by a chorus of boos. I get that booing is the only way for fans to show
 their displeasure etc but surely not every team who are not winning at home
 do not deserve barracking ? Whatever , todays performance probably did
 deserve the reception they got.
 Second half we did a bit better and got back into the game,a mix up in
 their defence allowed Byram to rob the ball and put it on a plate for Smith
 to tap it into an empty net. Not long after Mowatt hit the woodwork - a
 chance that could have got us back on level terms but it was not to be
 (they also hit the bar later on) and we were on the end of some poor
 refereeing decisions but really we did not deserve anything from this game
 - Aribiyi looked light weight and could easily become the new De Costa /
 Joel Griffiths / Sebastian Sorsa / Ryan Hall ??
 So all in all a very bad day at the office and with hard games to come we
 could find ourselves out of  play off contention by the end of the month

 The only good thing was the crowd of over 30k which shows that the Bates
 era is dead and buried and that fans do buy into the GFH and McDermott
 vision for the future, though for how long is anyone's guess

 Roll on Rochdale on Saturday and here's hoping we have a good cup run,
 other than that lets hope Brian can somehow work miracles over the transfer
 window and bring in some genuine talent

 All the best for the New Year

Re: [LU] Blackburn

[Brendan]

Thanks for the reports Dave, I look forward to reading even those from defeats 
like today's.

From my armchair, I remain entirely behind BMcD and even if we just survive 
relegation again I'd still back him - the squad upon his arrival is and 
remains as weak as piss.

During the summer all of us wanted to see the back of Brown, Pugh, Pearce, 
Norris, Varney, Tonge... yet ALL of them are still there as they had at least a 
season left on their contracts. Thanks Colin.

Admittedly Pearce has redeemed himself, but the rest we literally can't even 
give them away.

Then we have Drury, Peltier, EHD, White and Poleon: Old/Injured, unreliable, 
given up, and not good enough x 2.

That's half a squad there that we're stuck with until the end of the season and 
it wouldn't matter if we had Mourinho managing that lot (not to mention half 
the others).

BMcD IN.

Thanks for sending that.

What a goal by McCormack! Obvious foul by Becchio, but a brilliant finish.
It was funny how Becchio picked the ball out of the net after the first
goal and it looks like Diouf is trying to fight him for it for a second.
Good finish as well from Becchio for #3. Their third was bloody lucky.

Re: [LU] Blackburn

[seanscribe]

I disagree. Compared with other clubs' official commentators, the Leeds guys 
are very objective. Here in the States I often get the official Arsenal, Man 
U and Chelsea commentaries on satellite radio, and they are so one-sided that 
it's hard to know how the game is really going. The one thing you can say about 
the Leeds guys is that if Leeds are playing poorly, they won't hesitate to say 
so. Equally, if there's a controversial incident, I trust that I'm getting a 
fair assessment of it from Eddie Gray.


Cheers!

I also listened to the game on the radio.

Sorry if I am repeating myself from last year, but how atrocious are those
commentators on Yorks Radio? Their only virtue is that you know about a
goal quicker than any other medium. I really blame those smug
self-satisfied Radio 5 bastards who think the commentary is all about
themselves. The main bloke is bad enough, but Eddie Gray, as much as you
have to love the guy, is hopeless. He watches replays on his monitors and
says things like That was really bad defending...look at that.

  This
  was a brilliant game, a full blooded affair which see sawed back and
  forth. First thing to say is that Blackburn were a class apart on the
  ball especially in the first half in which they ripped us apart time
  and time again. They quickly raced into a 2-0 lead both goals coming
  down their left. I've just ruffled a few feathers on Twitter
  (Richleedsuk) by asking Peltier whether he was at fault or was he
  exposed through lack of cover. He replied saying it didn't matter ,
  it was the way they came back that was important. Can't argue with
  that but you have to wonder whether our defensive frailities may
  still be there.
  When
  that 2nd goal went in people all around me were saying that this was
  going to be an embarrassment. I couldn't disagree and was beginning
  to think about the long season ahead. It was reality kicking in, a
  premiership team against a cobbled together set of misfits most of
  them from a team that got relegated. How stupid were we ? How daft to
  doubt at a Neil Warnock team , they were never going to rollover.
  I
  think sticking Diouf on the right wing didn't work. He was drifting
  inside as it is in his nature to try and get the ball when he sees
  the front 2 struggling. This left large gaps which  were exposed
  every time they broke. This led to both their goals. Our main problem
  was a lack of movement up front and when the ball was played through
  the ball was inevitably given away, the main culprit being Becchio
  who won hardly anything in the air and when given to his feet he
  unbelievably at times just gave it away. One time on the right, he
  cut inside and with white shirts everywhere he found the only dark
  shirt. Amazing quality,
  In
  fact, Becchio's heading ability is so poor that all long balls are
  now aimed at Varney who is head and shoulders above Becchio in the
  air.
  So
  how did we get back into it ? Well, we increased our work rate and
  just got stuck in. We won a few free kicks in dangerous positions and
  started to pile on the pressure through long balls into the area.
  They began to flap, especially Robbo in nets who was awful. When at
  Leeds I thought he was the equal of Nigel Martyn when it came to shop
  stopping but he was always week coming for crosses and commanding his
  area. Nothing has changed , he flapped time and time again and the
  Blackburn defence began to creak. On one such occasion , we got lucky
  and the ball fell to Diouf who poked it in. We then began to believe.
  From
  that moment on we steamrolled them, not through beautiful play but
  from high energy

Maybe you're younger than me (in fact you are almost certainly younger than
me!), but I still yearn for proper commentary along the lines
ofBremner has the ball halfway inside his own half, plays it
out to Lorimer on the right, Reaney overlaps and Lorimer chips it into the
corner. He's overhit it I think, no, Reaney shows great speed and he's
caught it just inside the byeline. he cuts inside, and slides it back to
Giles, edge of the box, he chips it, and it hits the bar, bounces out,
Jones is there, he scores with a header from six yards into the top corner.

Thom Kirwin, yes I think he's ok. I like to listen to Eddie but I'm afraid he's

think it's clear to see why he didn't make the big time as a manager.

Ian Dennis and Bryn Law have both gone on to great things from local radio.

 started to pile on the pressure through long balls into the area.
 They began to flap, especially Robbo in nets who was awful. When at
 Leeds I thought he was the equal of Nigel Martyn when it came to shop
 stopping but he was always week coming for crosses and commanding his
 area. Nothing has changed , he flapped time and time again and the
 Blackburn defence began to creak. On one such occasion , we got lucky
 and the ball fell to Diouf who poked it in. We then began to believe.  
 From
 that moment on we steamrolled them, not through beautiful play but
 from high energy,pressure football. The whole foundation of their
 team collapsed and we saw more of the ball and began to run the game.
 Colin instructed Diouf to go get the ball so he was given a free
 reign, which actually at times saw him playing up front centrally
 pushing the ineffective Becchio and McCormack out to the right and
 left. He's a better striker than both of them. 
 We
 came out second half full of energy and carried on where we left off.
 Diouf was at the centre of everything, controlling, passing, holding
 up play, playing through balls, crossing. A master class to the
 players around him who just aren't capable of those levels of
 composure and skill.
 We
 were dominating and Blackburn were on the ropes. Norris and Austin
 upped the pace and were everywhere. Then came the equaliser, a high
 ball was played through, Becchio sort of went for it in the
 half-arsed way he does at times , you know the one, he's not really
 looking to win the header but looking for a foul, the ball missed
 them both and went through to an unmarked Macca. He took it on and
 smashed it in the net, a really well taken goal.  
 There
 really was only winner from here and we had many chances to bury
 them. Diouf took complete control and was teasing them with his
 deceptive skill. Pearce was unlucky to have his goal chalked off for
 what looked like a 50:50 scrap for the ball and then

It was brilliant mate - not much good football but we steamrolled them. I think 
if we keep that up we certainly won't be losing 10 games at home this time 
around.

I am worried about the squad depth - I mean Macca and Becchio are certs at the 
mo - who is challenging them ? 

I think we will rack up the suspensions though playing at that level. Austin 
deffo will be the first to get a suspension.

  This
  was a brilliant game, a full blooded affair which see sawed back and
  forth. First thing to say is that Blackburn were a class apart on the
  ball especially in the first half in which they ripped us apart time
  and time again. They quickly raced into a 2-0 lead both goals coming
  down their left. I've just ruffled a few feathers on Twitter
  (Richleedsuk) by asking Peltier whether he was at fault or was he
  exposed through lack of cover. He replied saying it didn't matter ,
  it was the way they came back that was important. Can't argue with
  that but you have to wonder whether our defensive frailities may
  still be there. 
  When
  that 2nd goal went in people all around me were saying that this was
  going to be an embarrassment. I couldn't disagree and was beginning
  to think about the long season ahead. It was reality kicking in, a
  premiership team against a cobbled together set of misfits most of
  them from a team that got relegated. How stupid were we ? How daft to
  doubt at a Neil Warnock team , they were never going to rollover.
  I
  think sticking Diouf on the right wing didn't work. He was drifting
  inside as it is in his nature to try and get the ball when he sees
  the front 2 struggling. This left large gaps which were exposed
  every time they broke. This led to both their goals. Our main problem
  was a lack of movement up front and when the ball was played through
  the ball was inevitably given away, the main culprit being Becchio
  who won hardly anything in the air and when given to his feet he
  unbelievably at times just gave it away. One time on the right, he
  cut inside and with white shirts everywhere he found the only dark
  shirt. Amazing quality,
  In
  fact, Becchio's heading ability is so poor that all long balls are
  now aimed at Varney who is head and shoulders above Becchio in the

Mmmm ... Difficult one. I was looking at Peltier when the second went in, his 
head was down and he looked defeated . I suppose given he was at fault for both 
he probably wasn't feeling too good. Tom Lees was jeeing people on. I think 
you're looking at Pearce, Norris, Lees ( too young? ) or how about Diouf'. I 
know that might sound ridiculous but he does an awful lot of directing , 
pointing etc. ?? And has a great awareness of the pitch. He did get involved 
with the Blackburn fans at one point who soon turned on him.
Paddy Kenny is another option but then there's an argument about keepers being 
captain ?

Maybe Peltier will come good, he looked very shaky though and looks like a 
quiet sort of bloke.

 I am worried about the squad depth - I mean Macca and Becchio are certs at 
 the mo - who is challenging them ?

 I think we will rack up the suspensions though playing at that level. 
 Austin deffo will be the first to get a suspension.

 Thanks Rich, listened to game but waited for your match report - seems to 
 me having only seen teh Wolves game on TV and heard all the rest on the 
 radio that we still have defensive issues, Austin seems to be in charge 
 in midfield but i worry about his discipline, I reckon he will get a few 
 headers at corners this year though. Diouf has been class throughout and 
 the game I watched you can see he has that extra 2 or 3 seconds to think 
 on the ball.

 It is a worry that the 2 football teams played us off the park in 
 Blackpool and Blackburn.. I guess a few more teams like that in this 
 league. Still ... no losses at ER so far and could easily have been a win 
 from what I heard.

 Watched the Blackpool Leicester game.. pool were not allowed to play.. 
 Beckford was greedy when he came on but has the speed... guess we need a 
 fast boy up front.

 Will we survive until January?

 Thanks for report, Andy

 This
 was a brilliant game, a full blooded affair which see sawed back and
 forth. First thing to say is that Blackburn were a class apart on the
 ball especially in the first half in which they ripped us apart time
 and time again. They quickly raced into a 2-0 lead both goals coming
 down their left. I've just ruffled a few feathers on Twitter
 (Richleedsuk) by asking Peltier whether he was at fault or was he
 exposed through lack of cover. He replied saying it didn't matter ,
 it was the way they came back that was important. Can't argue with
 that but you have to wonder whether our defensive frailities may
 still be there.
 When
 that 2nd goal went in people all around me were saying that this was
 going to be an embarrassment. I couldn't disagree and was beginning
 to think about the long season ahead. It was reality kicking in, a
 premiership team against a cobbled together set of misfits most of
 them from a team that got relegated. How stupid were we ? How daft to
 doubt at a Neil Warnock team , they were never going to rollover.
 I
 think sticking Diouf on the right wing didn't work. He was drifting
 inside as it is in his nature to try and get the ball when he sees
 the front 2 struggling. This left large gaps which were exposed
 every time they broke. This led to both their goals. Our main problem
 was a lack of movement up front and when the ball was played through
 the ball was inevitably given away, the main culprit being Becchio
 who won hardly anything in the air and when given to his feet he
 unbelievably at times just gave it away. One time on the right, he
 cut inside and with white shirts everywhere he found the only dark
 shirt. Amazing quality

Talking to a Leicester fan today and he was amazed peltier was our captain. Not 
captain material apparently.

 Mmmm ... Difficult one. I was looking at Peltier when the second went in, 
 his head was down and he looked defeated . I suppose given he was at fault 
 for both he probably wasn't feeling too good. Tom Lees was jeeing people on. 
 I think you're looking at Pearce, Norris, Lees ( too young? ) or how about 
 Diouf'. I know that might sound ridiculous but he does an awful lot of 
 directing , pointing etc. ?? And has a great awareness of the pitch. He did 
 get involved with the Blackburn fans at one point who soon turned on him.
 Paddy Kenny is another option but then there's an argument about keepers 
 being captain ?
 
 Maybe Peltier will come good, he looked very shaky though and looks like a 
 quiet sort of bloke.

 So
 how did we get back into it ? Well, we increased our work rate and
 just got stuck in. We won a few free kicks in dangerous positions and
 started to pile on the pressure through long balls into the area.
 They began to flap, especially Robbo in nets

I also listened to the game on the radio.

Sorry if I am repeating myself from last year, but how atrocious are those
commentators on Yorks Radio? Their only virtue is that you know about a
goal quicker than any other medium. I really blame those smug
self-satisfied Radio 5 bastards who think the commentary is all about
themselves. The main bloke is bad enough, but Eddie Gray, as much as you
have to love the guy, is hopeless. He watches replays on his monitors and
says things like That was really bad defending...look at that.

  They began to flap, especially Robbo in nets who was awful. When at
  Leeds I thought he was the equal of Nigel Martyn when it came to shop
  stopping but he was always week coming for crosses and commanding his
  area. Nothing has changed , he flapped time and time again and the
  Blackburn defence began to creak. On one such occasion , we got lucky
  and the ball fell to Diouf who poked it in. We then began to believe.
  From
  that moment on we steamrolled them, not through beautiful play but
  from high energy,pressure football. The whole foundation of their
  team collapsed and we saw more of the ball and began to run the game.
  Colin instructed Diouf to go get the ball so he was given a free
  reign, which actually at times saw him playing up front centrally
  pushing the ineffective Becchio and McCormack out to the right and
  left. He's a better striker than both of them.
  We
  came out second half full of energy and carried on where we left off.
  Diouf was at the centre of everything, controlling, passing, holding
  up play, playing through balls, crossing. A master class to the
  players around him who just aren't capable of those levels of
  composure and skill.
  We
  were dominating and Blackburn were on the ropes. Norris
