Disagree arriba, why change a team thats unbeaten

[tans]

I saw Fatbury at the end of the game.

Malpas aint so magic to him now!

[PHIL!!!!]

I think our big downfall was the communicattion between our two centre backs today....Niether of them knew who should be marking Beckford....So in the end Beckford either flicked the header on without being challenged, or had been given the space to run onto the ball....At least one of them man mark him, and the other be the spare man in situations such as this.

I dont know why we had four men at the back when they only had one up front

Also, lets give credit to their keeper a few good saves.

I thought Cox had scored that header right after Leeds second...

Think we all did. Amazing save.

Poor performance, but lets not get carried away. Leeds are a very good side, 11 men or 10, with a very good manager. Success for them is winning the league, no less - for us it's top ten and flirting with the play-offs.

That aside, our lot still need a kick up the arse. Macca got no space and often had 3, rather than the usual 2 on him - but that left ony 7 men, 6 outfield, elsewhere for them. We couldn't exploit the space at all.

Smith was poor, Jerel was uncharacteristically poor....but would anybody have picked a different side going in at 3pm? Some may have picked Brez but he was poor a couple of weeks back.

Put today down to experience. Many more games like that and we worry about it, but not a one-off vs Leeds.

OK i'm going to post reasonably here. Or at least i'm going to try to. Part of me is really pissed off and wants to question Malpas. How many fucking times do we see these pathetic mistakes made? It really does cost us. And against 10 men we showed no fight and no passion. Really bugs the out shit of me. Why didn't we really go at them? Why did it look like no one gave a fuck except Cox?

On the other hand Leeds did really well with 10 men. They looked a class apart really. But Ifil was dreadful today. Our defence as a unit was really poor as well. Leeds are a good side and will do well this season. There is no shame in losing a game at home to them. They had luck as well. How Cox didn't score that header i will not know. World class save from their keeper. But after that we backed off. We need more passion, more urgency and to cut out these silly mistakes or it will be a long hard season. Plus points were Aljofree, Amankwaah, Cox and Macca. Rest were poor.

Overall no point in pushing the panic button yet. Malpas should get at least 4 more games. Something is wrong though and that needs to be rectified pretty quickly or a long season awaits us.

That was what got me - I don't mind losing against a better side, or even an average side that just got the rub of the green but I can't stand that sort of gutless display. We looked like rabbits in headlights for most of the game, whether against 11 or 10 men and we'd have looked no better against 8.

Aside from that, the lad who got sent off went in two-footed, both feet off the ground. That's a red.

And while I'd agree with the selection point about playing with two wingers it's not a lot of use if they don't actually get out on the wing. JPM in particular seemed to just drift around the centre. And no I'm not one of the regular JPM boo-boys, I think he takes a lot of the same undeserved flak we've seen far too many others take in recent years, which really pisses me off, but he just looked like he didn't know where or what he was supposed to be doing today.

Meh, it's only one game but the attitude and lack of fight was a real low point for me today

Summed it up well there Paul.
