Back from the game, getting fed up with the same problems, Bellusci is now becoming a liability, hardly had a shot on target, still cannot dominate a poor Charlton side, the effort is there but we are too light weight.
Thank god for Mowatt, 2 great strikes, I think we have to accept we ar a poor side, I think it's going to be a long hard season, still be back at ER on Saturday
.

Not commenting as have not seen game so hones question, with current players and given redders bit of time do you not think it will improve? Results before under redders would suggest we have talent and ability to do well but that don't always mean it is going to happen. Did you see any hope with current crop of players? Would maybe one of two transfers in jan help if so what do you think?

Hi Bermonsey
I think most of the team has got potential, Warnock was outstanding and Cooper looked calm, Mowatt was great, Adryan and Antenucci can play, cook and Bianchi were not very involved and Sam is still nowhere near his best.
We need some bite in the middle and a proper goal scorer in January.
We can play good football, far better tan in the last couple of years but we are light weight.

Cheers love leeds, always good to hear what regualar ER attendance think as I'm stuck in Bermondsey (as name would suggest). From what I have seen I must say I agree with your comments. Mowatt is becoming quite the goal scoring theat from midfield which is worth its weight in gold. love cook and in time think he could be really speical. Also love annucit and adryan but they need bit of steel alongside them. Not impressed with Sam for a while and think warnock has been our player of the year so far, yes he might be limited but is putting in a shift and he was a player that nearly made a world cup team and is showing why this season (even if he is older so of course not as quick as he was). So as an overview think we are going the right way! MOT

Disappointing result. A few positives but to throw away the lead twice at home is poor :( Must beat Blackpool Saturday

Well just back from game, overall we should have won, Charlton were poor, could not see them scoring so the fact they did twice was a worry.

We played pretty well, Mowatt has got a lot stronger from last year (been in the gym?) and scored 2 great goals set up by an excellent S Warnock who defended well and set up both goals.

Cooper was also good tonight, looked solid. So overall some progress for the team, but we have got to win soon as it is becoming a worry and after Blackpool 3 away games I think.

We made 3 mistakes for the first Charlton goal (was the only way they were going to score) the main ones from Bellusci (who was hopeless again and should be dropped) and the goalie.
I was close to the pen which seemed harsh (Bellusci again and he was booked he had a mare), ref was looking for it in my opinion.

Also what does Bianchi do these days? he started at us OK (good stats) but recently he has really gone off the boil, he was poor tonight. Antenucci/Doukara didn't show a lot either which was a shame.

So we should have won, do I know out best team yet, nope and I'm guessing neither does Redders but hopefully Cooper will play as he is better than the other 2 CB's we have

I agree on Bellusci being dropped to sort him out. Could easily be seen as at fault for the 3 goals on Saturday -& it's not the first time he has cost us a few goals with silly mistakes. still think he will come good but I think if we had another useful centre half he'd be on the bench for a few games to kick him the kick up the arse he needs.

If cooper played well how did we conceed two against a poor team, was it mainly bellusci? also was it just silly mistake or generally bad defending (if that makes sense)? Trying to see positivies and think we will come good

Cooper didn't make the mistakes, one down to the keeper and Bellusci and the other Bellusci (pen was harsh mind).
I also saw that cooper had the best stats for our defense in terms of interceptions, he played well, Warnock was excellent, Bryam OK and Bellusci poor. Was at game and that just my opinion on it

"We have to clean up something from the past or its going to be poison" Cellino on why he doesn't want to buy back Elland Road just yet. Any ideas as to what needs to be cleaned up? Bound to involve Master Bates!

Without researching when was our last league home win on a Tues night.

Let's Start climbing that table from today , up the whites!!

Going for Leeds 3-1 MOT ;)

Is that 3-1 or 3/1 Andy? lol

2-0 Leeds. Chapman & Wallace 5,000-1 at Laddies!

Googled last time leeds won on a tuesday was 25th of Febuary 1986 which is slightly odd as that was a saturday. Maybe it is becuase we have never won on a tuesday. Google also gets stuck with great French vitories in war :)

i think we are due a victory and i'm sure redders has the lads revv'd up so I will go for 2 -0 leeds

There's one thing for sure.
Us Leeds fans have still sense of humour.
