The Real Sandhurst Royal + 1 on the referee bottling it BtBB

A premiership game would have seen Livermore and Naylor both go.

Yep they targeted our players with nasty tackles, they were obviously scared of our attacking prowess. Shame the ref didn't give our players the protection they deserved. Just gave the Leeds players more encouragement to continue their dirty ways.

Snowball If we play 451 and match Swansea, they are beatable.

Leeds are beatable

Cardiff are beatable

Forest are beatable

Norwich are beatable. We drew 3-3, could've won it. We lost there by a 94th minute goal

Burnley, if they sneak in, well we beat them 6-1

Hull we shared two draws




There is really very little to pick between all the current top six and the chasing pack


What worries me is the prospect of QPR having points deducted and going into the play-offs. We may not make second now, but third may be worth having.

79Royal Leeds played out of their skin, some of our players had an off day, McDermott arguably made his first management gaff in two months. Happens in football.

A clean sheet away from home against a side who are pushing for a playoff place is a decent result, despite our run of good form over the past couple of months. Unbeaten in 13 games, with three very winnable games coming up. If we go into the playoffs in good form, we'll have just as much chance as anybody else.

URZ!

On this form, we'll still be the team that people want to avoid in the play-offs. Last night we didn't look very dangerous, but we still looked rather solid and would back ourselves to beat them in the return leg. Add that Kebe was missing and that Leeds put in their best performance for months, but still couldn't beat us. People are being far too negative; nobody will want to draw us in the play-offs.

With a Premiership ref Long and Hunt could have been booked for diving.
I thought we were as good as them in the first-half but they bossed the second.
As others have said an away point in this division is usually a good result if the other side is in the top half.
BTW I don't think Leeds are very good and expect them not to make the play-offs.

Report of match on 5 live this morning stated that Leeds were lucky not to have 2 players sent off, both were deserving of second yellow cards.
