Paddy's movement, running off the ball & work rate often goes unnoticed, defending from the front is so important for our set-up.

My junior high school coach would have benched me for that. "Shut up and play," he would tell me, "Let me yell at the ref,"
He's built like a brick shithouse, but goes down under a gust of wind. :lol:

At a random bar in Metz, surrounded by French folk celebrating the demise of England in the rugby. I couldn't give two fucks though, as Leeds won and we got a result at Agincourt.

But my god reading the messages on here during the game, we have many many moaning, grumpy barstewards
M.O.TO. Keep smiling :)
We didn't play well. Wolves fluffed a few chances. We were lucky to get the win. It was a stressful match to watch. But boy am I cheerful after getting the result. It was 3 points we didn't deserve. But we do deserve a bit of luck this season.

Had to laugh at Chelski being in the bottom half, but hoping they win.
He made a great point blank save that could have been the difference in the game. Need to give him some credit.

Worked out in our favour inadvertently. An extra goal on the GD and Wolves lose a key player for 3 games. :)

BGwhite wrote: ↑Sat Mar 18, 2023 5:53 pm Totally. A few times we should have booted clear but decided to try being clever and got us in real trouble. Decision making is slow and consequently wrong.
Ultimately it's all about the points but going forward I can only see a very bumpy ride .

Not worth the £12 million we paid for him, probably more suited to La Liga football.

I know Roca should have cleared the ball. But since Meslier was out of the box making the clearance - Shouldn't at least one of our defenders have run into the goal to cover behind him? Seems pretty obvious on the replay.
As I posted earlier, Andrew, our players are not clever footballers.

Probably thought they only had to turn up to win. They're not as good as they're made out to be. Heck we beat them twice lol. Definitely still involved in it.

Yeah. I just thought it was a little lethargic that nobody thought to rush back behind the keeper.

From Luke Ayling:

“It was a crazy game. We came here last year on the same day and had another crazy game. It was just up and down, we played really well to get 3-0 up and then we just let the game go. We let them back into it, we saw the game out well in the end but we can’t let them two goals in to make it close."

“I don’t care about that!” Ayling replied when asked about the standard of officiating and VAR's use. “I walk away with three points, I don’t care what happened so I won’t comment on that."

“We worked on things in the week, to come away and score four goals in the Premier League is hard so it’s great to come away and do that."

Classy from Bill

Watching the replays. It's nice to see a useful corner. But it's also nice to see someone else defending corners like we do.

In fact, I'd say today that Wolves out-Leedsed us today.

I wish someone could learn to take a free kick from just outside the box. Two today within about 5 minutes in the first half and both posing no threat at all, each just skied well over the bar, one by Roca and one by Bamford - such an anticlimax!
