Na, you’re ok thanks

Johnson. Holy fucking shit.

Just leave Weiman on his own. He'll be alreyt.

If Wilder plays him again, he needs his head checked.

Poor defending but they were as good a side as I've seen at the Lane this season and caused us problems all game.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

The defending for the 3rd and particularly the 2nd was absolutely appalling. Leeds aren’t going to bottle it, but they will surely drop some some points. We need to be there to capitalise.

 

[Punk Blade]

That’s a fine hat trick by Weimann.

The two goals at the Kop end, what on earth were the goalkeepers doing? Sun in their eyes?

 

[beatific blade]

I know people will claim that Johnson is being scapegoated...

But that ‘defending’ for the 3rd goal is diabolical.

He wouldn’t stand out in Chesterfield’s side.

Stevens doesn’t cover himself in glory for the first 2 in my opinion, and I think Henderson could have reacted quicker to the first – a combination of sunshine and misjudgment.

Agreed. They’ve got a lot of goodwill and equity built up though.

After the game at the Lane last season, if I never seen that purple and green kit again it will be too fucking soon...

 

[metalblade]

Well we were not good today but the defence fell apart when O'Connell went off. Sorry Chris you got the sub wrong I can see the thinking to put Stevens at centre back and bring Johnson on but fookin hell he has not had a lot of game time and a lot of what he has had has been littered with fook ups. Surely at 2-1 with less than 20mins left Stearman or Cranie would have been a better option and see the game out did we really need to press for more goals ?
Having said that Bristol C deserved to win they were a yard quicker than us all over the pitch. I thought the days of us going in front and then strolling about were over but I guess not, the same old failings surfaced again today we go a goal up and stop playing, we battle into 2nd place in the league and a shit show follows so now we have to play catch up again.

 

[beatific blade]

70 mins in and we’re 2-1 up...

Regardless of what Leeds did, you’ve got to see the game out at that point.

We we all over the place and just didn’t look as aggressive or dominant as usual.

Bristol C deserved to win.

BUT if I hear another set of fans come to the Lane and sing that fucking “E-I-E-I-E-I-O” song again I’m going to rupture my eardrums. It reminds me of the dark days in L1 when any old tin pot team with no songs would turn up and embarrass us (and then themselves with that song).

It is the shittest, shittiest football song in the history of shit football songs and I am so glad that we don't sing it. If ever United fans add that to their repertoire then I'm through with football and will probably start watching crown green bowling instead.

 

[grafikhaus]

Personally, I don't blame Hendo for their first - it just looped perfectly out of his reach. Their second? Regardless of poor defending, Weimann only had a yard of the goal to aim for, so Hendo was 'beaten at the near post' to put it lightly.

Good 'leave' for their free-kick, though.

[Kenilworth]

Thst doesn't look great for Johnson on the second and third goals.
He even looked for Weimann at the back of him and then watched the ball instead of going with the man - another man beyond Weimann as well.

The third goal - well you could say Fleck should have body checked him but what sort of challenge was that from Johnson?
Should Have either forced him wider right by not committing himself or taken him out completely outside the box. The former would have resulted in no shot on goal and the defence getting back into position

 

[HighfieldBlade]

Real half-arsed defending by Johnson for that 3rd goal. Worse than me playing 5aside.
