just got in

flipping brilliant we were when nardiello came on,movement up front much better,hopefully now the numpty called andy ritchie can stop playing richards for a game or ten,cant really give ritchie any credit for this win but for last fifteen minutes played with some real passion which was sadly lacking in many games.hope youve learned the lesson ritchie..still badly need new signings though

 

So if you can't give credit to AR for bringing on Nardiello then who gets it? </p>

Oh, I know. It was the St Johns Ambulance man.</p>

Go away numpty.</p>

 

nariello decided to bring himself on then did he? nothing to do with ritchie deciding it was time to bring him on, well done tommy wright today

 

He came on soon has we started to chant his name! Tommy Wright...

Tries does the lad, but is useless.

 

Wright

Never got into the game until Nardiello came on.
Then he suddenly started winning headers and flick-ons,  controlling the ball, allsorts.
I am far from convinced he is &quot;the man for the job&quot; but I still think there is something there and he is worth hanging on to for now.

 

That second half

The best half of football Wright has played since he's been here. There's not much competition like, but still...

 

RE: That second half

Wright was excellent as soon as the service improved. People who can't see that ought to do themselves a favour and go watch a different sport.

Worrying thing today was the midfield, or lack thereof.

 

thought it was Togwells worst game for us today

we were over run in centre midfield at times.

 

RE: thought it was Togwells worst game for us today

We didn't have a centre midfield. That was the problem. Howard and Togwell were sat so far back they were tripping up over Kay and Reid.

 

RE: thought it was Togwells worst game for us today

exactly - think ritchie has told them to do that in a belief that it will "shore things up" .i'm not so sure..

 

RE: thought it was Togwells worst game for us today

Result suggests it worked, but I remain to be convinced. They had way too much time on the ball in areas that better teams could really hurt us.

 

Oddly enough

I thought it was much improved from Togwell over the Coventry performence.

Howard, Devaney and McIndoe had too much skill and guile for Leeds today. However, the Leeds midfield was far more physical and our tricky players were totally muscled out of it for a couple of nerve-shredding spells.

Remarkably, I thought Nicky Wroe added a bit of steel and did the few things he was called upon to do with confidence and aplomb. I never thought those words would pass my lips about that lad!

 

RE: Oddly enough

ff

tgo be fair he did look a bit less shaky than usual!

 

RE: Oddly enough

Thought Douglas (no 4) ran the first half for them. Also lets not forget Sam's only 22 up against an 'old pro' like Derry.

 

RE: Oddly enough

Healy ran the game for them in the first half. Different class.

 

RE: Oddly enough

i thought blake mesen

 

Was that his name?

Dirty little **** he was....must be a prerequisite for wearing the Leeds number 4 shirt!

 

RE: Oddly enough

Suppose it depends on who you were closer to. We were sat in West Stand, and from where we were most of the threat seemed to come from Healy.

 

RE: Oddly enough

Well I'm sorry but I'm considerably wiser err.. not Dennis.... than both of you so I'm right !!!!

 

Tis weird - thought Healy was very quiet indeed

Put in an excellent cross from a high ball but was nobody in the middle, but didn't really think he did much else. Thought Blake was okay, Douglas was effective, but the rest of their team (particularly Horsfield for all those &quot;lets sign him&quot; people) were non-existant.
