We praise O'Leary when he does things well, but his kicking isn't his finest quality and letting us down today.

Wonder if that collision has injured him. His kicking has been off since then

'uddersfield close to scoring again

I suspect we’ll be seeing lots of direct box entries this afternoon.

James getting on well with the ref.

Wouldn’t have done that if it was Keith Stroud.

Playing Knight in the forward position again, sigh.

Don't know why he keeps doing that as he played well in midfield with Williams recently.

 

 

I think he loses a bit of his game playing slightly more forward.

At least he's making the effort, unlike some.

Absolutely. I get that the original poster holds a view that some won’t like, but I’ve noticed a couple of pretty childish and pointless posts aimed at the individual already this afternoon. There’s always been a bit of it on here but recently it’s got worse. If you don’t like an individual and can’t be bothered to argue their post, then just leave their point unanswered, if your ego or immaturity does not allow you to do that then put the poster on block. Simple really and perhaps just grow up a little bit….

Makes the forum quite dull at times which is a shame as there are lots of good posters on here.

It says that Sky will stream 328 matches per season for the Championship.  I didn't realise Leeds played that many games in a season.

Nah they’re just getting ready for Everton in the Championship and the rebrand to Scouse Sports

Wow. Some supporter you are. Pathetic post tbh. 

Not really. You can embrace the win but still question the long term. I’ve seen enough shite under the Manning regime to still question if he’s the real deal. 

From what little I saw of the game tonight (on an iPad with mates in a pub) Blackburn looked very poor. That said 5 against anyone is not a poor result in any form.

Lets see how good the manning team is 10 matches into next season before we jump up and down…

Watching on and iPad in a pub in London. Chatting with mates, to my half on the game eye, Blackburn are shit

Thought Lez was a bit disrespectful to the pod with his constant starring at the phone, getting up and walking off, and showing no interest in listening when others were speaking.

Also think when Tom isn't on, everyone is pretty much singing from the same hymn sheet, so hoping the next guest will have some differing views to encourage more debate.

Personally I thought he came across as an arrogant bell end in terms of his attitude to being on. I don’t mind hearing backed up views that might differ from mine, although I stopped listening to what he was coming out with after a while. Not sure I’d rush back to listen to another episode that had him on it.

The way I saw it was that Manning could see we were playing badly and were lucky to go in at 0-0 so he hooked AM off and went to a back 5 to shut up shop and play for the point. I don't like that. 

Not really, Mehmeti was not having the best game, made sense to put McCrorie on and push Sykes into a more forward position. Allowed for more pace on the counters, plus a bit more physicality to deal with Collins.

Wouldn’t argue with any of the selections and substitutions today.

Perhaps a result of the conditions but that was dreadful. At least MoL was on form. No one else can take much credit from that.

Viktor Johansen will be most saves but not highest percentage.

I’d be checking his availability, always been impressed with him.

2nd most appearances in the league, 2nd best save percentage in the league.

But don’t let facts get in the way of irrational dislike and intentional look at me posts

Sunderland really struggling with this wind. 

Got to be honest I’m struggling to watch…

Just now, mozo said:

Twine was rubbish. Cornick is gonna score the winner!!!!!!

I’d agree with the first part, you might be ticking the very optimistic box with your second part

How has Dack missed that…

Twine not doing anything to justify shelling out 5m for.

Ergo, no excuses then.

Quite. From my recollection of playing school sports at Failand, they should be used to playing in wind at the HPC, pointless playing long balls into a gusty wind.

Just now, The Original OTIB said:

If you look at lino far side, flag largely blowing towards their goal. Swirling all over the place. Again, bothering them not a jot.

They’re keeping it on the floor, we haven’t been

Mehmeti having a mare, I’d be taking him off, putting McCrorie on and moving Sykes forward. An additional bit of physicality against Clarke would be no bad thing

A player of his calibre should be doing better

Got to get him on the ball in places where he can create. His back to goal in our half with a Sunderland player closing in him in not it. 

Get a ******* grip. This is not great

Anyone care to suggest that Max isn’t good enough today???

Single handedly keeping us in this

None are really excelling but Twine looks well off it

Can’t do much with scraps.
