    Had to sit with the Leeds fans, which was a struggle, holding my tongue all the time.

    The huge difference today was the way we set up, the tactical awareness from the manager and the dropping of certain players.
    Bobby Hassell was playing in the perfect role, and did a fantastic job considering he has hardly played this season.
    It was great to see Nyatanga get his first start at left back, and we looked a lot stronger defensively down that left hand side.

    What impressed me was the way we kept hold of the ball quite comfortably thus stemming the flow of any Leeds momentum. We would have achieved this better had we had O'Grady leading the line, but Tudgay did okay up until his sending off, he should have buried his chance though, the best chance of the game.

    Danny was spot on earlier in the week when he said we need to compress the goals difference, and i believe we will do that providing we play like that away from home and make Oakwell a fortress again.

    Its amazing how a poor League 1 squad can suddenly become a Championship squad by playing your best 11 and in their correct positions

    At their ticket office their cheapest prices were £31, but most options/stands were £36 for them too. Think it went up to £41 in one area.

    Gotta say lads we are not much better regarding ticket prices. A year or so ago I came down for the Bristol City game and the price of a ticket was £30. Yes £30 and I would have payed it grudgingly but I did get the use of an unused season ticket for the game. I gave the owner £15 but did think BFC charging £30 for the game was more than a bit OTT.
