Not really a report because it was on the telly, but a bunch on bullet points from someone sat in the Bradford end…but apparently our first loss at VP in 80 years…those records keep tumbling - they don't like us much, not that we really care, but they were generally quite a good

I think that game finished 1-1. We definitely didn't lose it. This time we would have played Man U at Old Trafford in the next round if both teams hadn't messed up. That would have been good. Tim W. From: Ian Murray ianjamesmur...@hotmail.com To: Nick

Good article. I don't think it is fair on Smith to play him up front when we are adhering to this useless diamond formation. We are too narrow and the only balls he receives are with his back to play from long deep which always favour the centre halves. He should definitely have given new

For me, what got Hock sacked was the kind of dopey comment he made afterwards - along the lines of 'the lads are in the dressing room and can't understand how they didn't win'. From my perspective, that f***ing idiot Murphy cost us the game - was it only 2 weeks back I'd said his lack of

No sympathy for the Hock. Don't blame him for taking the job, if someone offered me the job of coaching Leeds I'd take it, but he was clearly out of his depth and made poor tactical decisions. Of course the senior players backed him, that's who he kept trotting out, the same players who were

My guess is that he DIDN'T get a tidy payoff. I think that was the whiole point of Cellino choosing him...he was the only bloke prepared to accept what was basically a zero hours contract. Rather than get into the MU/Moyes situation where the manager is clearly failing but you can't

Totally agree. I would have felt sorry for him if he'd shown ounce of humility about the whole thing. He came came across as arrogant. Shame he couldn't back it up. I think we'll have to go for an Italian manager. PS this is the first time that the sacking of a Leeds manager has made me
