Re: Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
I expected a score and performance like this. We look emotionally and physically knackered whereas Rotherham are well-rested.

Wilkinson's no Rambo, is he? Marshmallow Man seems more appropriate. I'll apologise as necessary if proven wrong. And only the offside flag takes the heat off a possible fourth. Kellet leaves the fray for Trotter. Is it his year?

Re: Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
And Lonergan has to make a cracking save from Darbyshire. Are we going to start playing now?

Re: Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
Agree with this - however the squad is threadbare and NL is scraping the bottom of the barrel, but although he's only a young lad and still learning Wilkinson is poor, I can't see a football player there never mind a championship level player. Its like playing with 10 men as he offers and contributes nothing, he certainly needs toughening up.LeverEnd wrote:We've been appalling in every department. Slow to everything, no movement, absolutely nothing up front. Wilkinson is useless and soft. I'll believe in his potential when I see a glimpse of it. A lot of these lads are running on empty, he's not been playing. Kellett has never got into it. No creativity in midfield either.
Fair play to Rotherham though, they've deserved it.
If Lennon can wring anything out if this he's the second coming. There's nothing for us here.

Ah just feck off.
What the feck are they doing?
Apparently the commentators could hear Neil Lennon through the walls at half time. Looks like it's done a world of good.
P.S. A shot on target would be nice.

Bugger. COYWM. Interesting to see how the last half-hour goes. Seen us lose 4-0 under a variety of managers, and while it's never nice, it can be educational.
Might also be the cue for a word with the beancounters: we need some help here.

Re: Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
Have we had a real attempt on goal yet? Wait, big Dave's getting ready....we're saved...Wilkinson off as ref gives them another free on the box edge and.....it hits the wall. Mills goes forward and Wheater takes the point role. And......Feeney misses a sitter that's cleared off the line.

Re: Concrete jungle where dreams are made of
The manner of the result, rather than the result itself, is surprising. Given that we're missing so many players, particularly in attack, a defeat shouldn't shock any of us tonight.
Conceding four through a defence that has been more than solid in the past month or so is shocking, though. I can only assume that, after having run themselves into the ground on Saturday and performed like heroes, the defenders just haven't got the mental or physical wherewithal to reach those same levels again. A lack of strength in depth, maybe, has led to us having to play these players again - I'm sure Lennon would have rested two or three if he could have done.
Wilkinson is just not ready yet. Too lightweight. But he wouldn't be playing if we'd had another option.

One on target to their seven. Took us 31 minutes to have any kind of shot at all.TANGODANCER wrote:Have we had a real attempt on goal yet?
If it's any consolation, we've helped Rotherham push Leeds closer to the drop zone.
