I didn't know they were quite so high like that - impressive!

Sheffield United are not the worst team I have seen at this level but they are going to lose so many games by narrow margins because they just don't create anything at all really. And individually their players will make mistakes at the back eventually. 2 points from 15 games is incredible.

Yep. When they do create they've nobody clinical enough to take advantage.

I don’t think they’ll eclipse the Derby record there’s probably a couple of home games where they can scrape a couple of wins and few draws, it’s at a stage when any confidence would’ve evaporated a long time ago and trying to recall what served them well last season has been forgotten.

So the Burnley defence has picked today to be shit rather than against us.

They're just playing against a team that's going to ask more questions of it

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Not seen this ref before. Initial thoughts are that he is at least as shit as the others.

Not really. Mee and Tarkowski leaving a hole you could drive a bus through has nothing to do with Leeds.

 

[prawnking]

I'm no Leeds fanboy, but they've scored more goals than us and Burnley put together and they're undoubtedly a more offensive team than us...of course they're leaky at the back too

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

We worked them out perfectly though. Let them punch themselves out and did them in the second half

 

[prawnking]

Oh we can defend decently most of the time, it's the other end of the pitch that's the issue, hence my initial comment.

Leeds have already had as many shots on target as we had v Burnley in the whole game

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I agree that they are more offensive in their mindset. But their goal today has come from an absolute defensive fuck up from a defence that was supremely solid against us. It was an unforced error by Burnley.

 

[sycophantia]

Definate pen for me, can't see why some are saying it isn't.
Burnley's equaliser should have stood, no way thats a foul on the keeper, if anyrhing, a foul by the keeper.....mind you it came from a freekick that wasn't a foul either

 

[Tony Towner]

Penalty
No foul
No Penalty

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Penalty

So 1-1 then

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I know it pelted down last night but the Elland Road pitch is really bad. Not 1974 Baseball Ground but still very poor.

 

[leedswolf]

The area is known as "Lowfields" for a reason. A high water table doesn't help for effective drainage.

 

[Carrotdude]

I really hate watching Burnley, absolute bunch of clogger thugs. Think they’re the only team that’s made a Leeds game not fun to watch this season.

 

[SSB]

Needs to pull it up over his eyes to be fair.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Sam's policy fails - came for a 0 - 0 and that's gone already.

Need to try & do something else as staying this way will end up with more conceeded

Boring game otherwise

 

[Jack Regan]

Deservedly level at 1-1, been the better side in the second half.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Pool have been poor this half, but a set piece was always the most likely route back
