How's it looking now?

Congratulations @ChippenhamRed, your curse is broken

[Kid in the Riot]

Thought we deserved the win tonight. We were comfortably the better side first half, sort of carried off where we left off from Saturday in the first 20 mins. 

Game tightened up second half and became more scrappy but still didn't think Leeds did enough to earn a draw. They looked a decent ish side but we defended well, lots of good blocks and last ditch tackles.

Tammy had an off day, Tomlin excellent again, Paterson started really well but faded. Hordur made one mistimed tackle that nearly led to a Leeds goal but was otherwise excellent. 

Well done City, let's keep the momentum going Saturday.

Tomlin will now have to fight for his place following suspension because of strength in depth within the squad.

Shame we will be missing Tomlin for the Forest game, and all his own doing.

If that's the price we have to pay for his genius then so be it.

If that audacious first half effort had gone in it would've been worth the ST price on its own.

[Crimson Crayola]

Great sense of togetherness shown by our boys tonight. Look like a tightly knit group which considering the competition for places is a great thing.

And just because it amuses me...Villa give away their 8 billionth late equaliser this season.

 

There was a time under the other Johnson when we loved to do that.

He was the difference tonight in my opinion and short of his replacement scoring a hattrick, curing all diseases and ending all wars, he will return to the team immediately.

Hard game for us, neither team got in full flow, we really cancelled each other out, our goal came from a mistake from a Leeds defender.

 

COYR!!

It certainly did not!!

brilliant harrying and a tackle from Pack. Great run and perfectly timed Tomlin pass for Pack to finish expertly. 

Well deserved goal.

along with tammy first on the team sheet

[Chairman Mao]

Push Reid up to Tomlin's role and O'Neil alongside Pack?

They're hiding with the "Pack is useless" mob.

In fairness, a fair % of the others were 1-0, at least 'that' year.

Ahh was it, looked like their defender was slow/complacent and pack nicked it, my mistake!

Just gona lend his place to somebody.

Can see Reid in his spot with Pack and O,neil behind.

Yep, but with an electronic collar that LJ has control of so he doesn't mouth off so much with any luck.

Possibly when we did? Not really rocket science.

[JamesBCFC]

At the end Magnusson turned to the South Stand and lead and Icelandic clap.

With him keeping people in time it was pretty good

I would've said the same with O'Neil after Sheff W but we've looked as good if not better without him. 

[Port Said Red]

Lets hope Tammy has recovered completely from his knock for Saturday, he wont want to miss playing against the second worst defence in this league so far.

I said we should drop Flint for his own good so we didn't end up in another Fontaine style situation. 

I am more than happy to be completely proven wrong. 

Kudos to AF for the turnaround.

Flinty seems to be more comfortable with Frankie behind him, than with R O'D.

[Flagon]

Some really great performances from the players tonight. Leeds pressed hard but we really held firm. My moment of the match, aside from the goal, had to be Pack chasing back on a yellow card and timing a perfect tackle to break their play up.

Yeah looked good from the Atyeo 

[TV Tom]

Tomlin in my opinion is the most talented player we've had at AG in the last 50 years
