    We'll batter 'em. We'll play with wingers, smash it long so Flitcroft proves he's not a sidekick, Daggers gets two, Rose as well. Easy.

    In fact, better to avoid it if that happens 'cos I will be a lovely person.

    I suppose its not art of realms of possibility for Leeds to get a man sent off and us score a late winner, its happened for our last 2 wins so a hatrick it could be, just informing mi gut now of another scenario, it grumbled like **** when I put a Dagnall brace to it.

    Bring it on yer lovely person yer hed to get it reight abart Daggers sumtime. Well done nip, hate to think what it would have done to him if he`d missed the pen.

    Harewood and Dagnall been some good interplay between these two last few games.

    Don't need to say anything my man, mi boy did all my talking for me.

    The thing is, that performance was very similar to what we've seen all season with a couple of tweaks. We're very close.

    Flickon in.

    Reightio, give me galvanised group any day of the week, what I`ve seen is far different from the same players that we saw under Hill. We did see this under Hill when he first came but he decided to go more for a keep ball system which in my view was negative, we may see this materialise under Flicker who knows but the last 3 games have given me more hope than owt in last 12 months.

    in all of this, IF Flicker leaves the Club tomorrow, we still have to take huge positives from today's result. that group of players CAN dominate teams, CAN keep clean sheets and CAN win games. no magic wand, just tweaks to some of the madness that Hill stubbornly refused to change. if the group stick together, injuries prevailing, we have a chance to get out of this mess.

    It was nothing like I've seen all season. Totally different formation and style of play. Like chalk and cheese.

    Of course there were differences in system and we went a little bit more direct but the performances of Stones, Dawson, Perkins and Dagnall are what we've been getting all season.

    The key difference yesterday was that Harewood and McNulty turned up. Harewood gave us something to hit long and it stuck whereas McNulty looked solid for the first time this year.

    Shows jowls important having your big players play well is, especially for a team like us.

    If Mellis comes back and finds some form I've no doubt we'll be fine. But I'd have thought that if Keith was still in charge because he's very important to us. Our slump started when he lost a bit of form.

    I agree. Most posters have been calling for Hassell. Most posters have been calling for width. We saw no Hassell and no width, but we did see a win, and the win that has convinced most posters that the system is radically different. It is not. The extra man in the last line allows the full backs to join midfield and play further up the field, but they have been our only source of width all season, but what would have happened if Leeds had played with width and the full backs would have had a marking job.

    It looked for much of the game like we had the same problem as for the rest of the season. We had dominated as usual but had been unable to turn that domination into goals. Just 4 minutes changed what most people intended to write on here. Four minutes during which a player who could not hit a cows backside with a banjo suddenly found that he could. Suddenly, posters forgot about Hassell, forgot about width and forgot that Flitcroft is a Hill man. They all forgot simply because we won. They also saw something that was not there. They so the ball be delivered forward more quickly and decided that this was down to a change in emphasis away from the dreaded tippy tappy, when in fact it was down to there being more space ahead of the passer and more movement by the front two.

    Do not get me wrong. I was a Hill man and I have voted Flitcroft in every poll for new manager. At one stage there was just me and two others. After yesterday, I now see that there are 77 of us. That does not make me right, but it does mean that at least three of us do not blow with the wind.
