Been watching this on Sky, I agree with faaip that this was an absolutely appalling display of refereeing. Brentford player gets yellow carded, fouls again and it is ignored as ref knows he would be off. Ayling gets yellow carded, fouls again and ref gives the second yellow so it's off for him Brentford player fouls two of ours straight after each other..... nothing, not a talking to not a yellow, nothing!! Don't get me started on the penalty that never was. Even Sky who initially said it was a def pen must have been watching replays and then straight after they scored they showed it repeatedly and said Brentford player was going down before BFP touched him and said it was def NOT a penalty. Would have loved for the game to have been stopped and an announcement made rescinding the pen and red carding that diving ba***rd for simulation!! Not to mention one of their subs head butting Alioski as he went to retrieve the ball from their dug out Jansson's post match interview was brill though, told Sky it was s**t and accused the ref of robbery. The Football League certainly is corrupt
I'm going back to 505, I saw them at Sheffield and they were amazing.
Alio absolutely brilliant today at left wing back, crucial intervention when 3 on 1, calm in defence, always played the right pass, crossed well all day tbf and a couple of laser passes late that caused problems ...never stopped running and drags this team up by the shirt collar when we sag. Has to start, would rather see him on the right especially wen Pablo is out but still a bit of a tallisman for us
"A mind is like a parachute, it doesn't work if it's not open"
Just watched the interview with Jansson again....it's given the football league a stick to beat Leeds Utd with again. Silly boy. He's frustrated I know, but this could lead to repercussions!

I agree. I like Alioski, I have from the start. He gets some right stick from fans and Noel Whelan on Radio Leeds. I joined a fb group All Leeds Aren't We and a lot of folk on there have a right downer on him Last season he did go down far too easily but you can't say that about him this season, Bielsa has worked his magic on him

I hope not. He said what the majority of us were thinking. That referee was an absolute disgrace

I'm happy he spoke his mind, FL needs to rethink bad refs and cheating players...still wanna hear what he said

Look forward to reading everyone's thoughts on this game. Great recap by faaip, I am disappointed as I think without the Brentford Ref's intervention, we could have nicked this game.
Good to see Clarke have a run out, did think Roberts did made a nuisance of himself for their defence. MB made good tactical changes and our late game fitness makes a big difference.
ESPN, cut Pj's interview just as he called the ref out so missed that.

Hi faaip
Pembs is short for Pembrokeshire south west Wales -not the furthest from Leeds on this forum by any means but still a far distance !
Nice, stunning area...I guessed that it was Pembrokeshire but it could have been a Leeds suburb I've never heard of. I'm a southerner born and raised.

Said in the week I would settle for a point considering our injuries, some positives to come out of this besides our spirit is Alioski is a better full back than winger, looked a lot better with Harrison in front of him, Baker looks a threat going forward as he did at Swansea, Forshaw looked more up to speed, Clarke didn’t look out of place and in my view Ayling missing the next game could be a blessing as young Shackleton is capable of taking on the right back position, if not Beradi is an upgrade on Ayling who has been poor lately, all in all very satisfactory
5 players out - and we still found an extra gear to make Brentford (one of the top rated teams in this division) look second rate and resort to gamesmanship....

I hope not as well bb, it's just that the EFL don't need any excuse to get down on Leeds United.
And I totally agree about the ref.....utterly useless!
I try not to throw blame at a ref as it’s a bloody hard job and one I’d definately not do but oh my god Simpson (possible Homer relation) was most definitely the worse referee I can remember taking a game at Elland Road, he should be forced to watch the game back and try to justify those awful decisions
