It's funny what can happen in 90 mins. Before the game I was looking at how far up the table we could go, now I find myself looking at what teams could potentially jump us and how many positions we could drop in the table today.

We basically didn't take our chances at the end of the day. A match we should never have lost. Didn't sound like we created many to be fair. Can't believe how defensive Powell set us up against a side below us in the table. That team is for a backs to the wall dogged defensive away performance. Starting a CB in midfield at home is laughable. Scannell missed a couple, sounded like Butterfield set loads up for Bunn, Vaughany missed a couple, Butterfield, our midfield CB skied 3 from outside the box.

Aye, terrible result compounded by injuries to key players. Just a really bad fookin day at the office.

Can't we get rid of a few more players first though?! This manager has done something no other manager has managed to do for 70 years, let L***s piss on us home and away due to his negative tactics. Well done Powell. If only we could get rid of the manager. 70 years - what other completely pointless stat do you want to drag up next - that no manager has ever won us the league title for the best part of 90 yrs? It's a game of football against local rivals that will milk it for a few days until they realise their club is so far up shit creek without a paddle they'll then move back into denial mode... Win next week, they lose next week, this board is a bit happier and gap-wise we're back to where we were before the game today...

How many teams get anywhere with that approach? You've got the likes of Brentford and Bournemouth with relatively similar ability squads playing attacking and fluid football. It's frustrating to watch us churning out rigid and negative football when others give it a go.

Powell far too defensive yet again. And what is his problem with making subs?

Town lose = Walshy and numerous people logging off DATM for 24 hours.
DATM is going to get heavy today/tonight.

Jeez. That was a dire performance, and we have lost 3 of out best players probably, back to a relegation dog fight.
The lack of depth after today is really concerning. Let's hope they make a Vaughan style recovery. Only coady can come away with any ounce of credit from today, and even that is clutching at straws a little.

Oh and L666s also did the double over them. I'm meant to be checking out!

To be fair we had the better of them in head to heads for quite a while until a year or so back. I don't want this to come across as a classic DATM 'I told you so' post, but is there anyone still thinking we can muddle along until the summer without signing anyone (be it loan or permanent)? We were looking very light before but with a couple of injuries we start to look threadbare. It's common knowledge that we're swimming against the tide in this division, the last thing we should be doing is taking chances with the squad and making things more difficult for ourselves. That's not the 'playing smart' the club often talks of, in my opinion.

Or is it that you're choosing 2 clubs with relatively unfashionable names to try and make a point? Bournemouth in the PL might well be a novelty but good luck to 'em & if they can sustain it whilst remaining more or less inside fair play rules then great for them... Don't let jealousy get in the way of things...

Good match, typical derby and plenty of passion.
Good luck for the rest of the season, hope your lad makes a full recovery.

Obviously delighted, we seemed to want it more towards the end listening to the radio on what sounded a fairly flat atmosphere and game from both sides.
Seriously hope your player Tommy Smith is ok, Yorkshire Air Ambulance landing on pitch soon to get the lad to hospital. Puts it all into perspective.

That was the type of game we needed a Grant Holt type - a proper rougher-upper.

As far as the game goes, thought we were poor but you were worse despite winning. We had enough chances off target alone to win that game. Shit result for us but not a great game overall. Fair play for coming on and not being a complete **** like some other people who say they support your lot

We showed real character to get back intyo that game and then dominate and have the best chances until their 10 mins at the end spell....but like galpharm says we got wot we deserved too negative with the substitution (Wallace at best Lg 1 when we could ave dropped Edgar back and brought on Lolley or another ATTACKING option)has we had settle for the point imo.

Got what we deserved. Nothing. Way too negative, no attacking threat whatsoever, no quality, no heart, no depth of squad. Leeds made positive subs and look where that gets them. A truly poor Leeds team and we only create one half chance all second half. What a bunch of overpaid bottlers Main point though, hope Smithy's ok.

Leeds deserved to win, Powell negative negative negative.
To have the likes of Majewski and Lolley on the bench and stick with knackered ineffective players for the last 25mins, very poor, deserved to lose.

Negativity from Powell costs us again
When will he learn
Off the pace all game, we could have been 3 down before we scored and then played well for 20 minutes. Second half poor again.
Then we get deeper and deeper and concede. We can't play that way, we have to press. We have to play 10 yards further up the field.
To go 4141 at home was embarrassing.
To not bring Lolley on was ridiculous.
Leeds wanted it more, they brought on Sharp, we went 4141 - they created the chances and Powell got what he deserved
Edgar - more passes to the opposition than our own team, won his headers but like playing a 4th centre half to mark 2 players. Legs went second half and what do we do sit him even deeper.
And what does Powell say, we didn't defend one cross - absolute rubbish man, waken up'!! They had 3 clear chances in the last 5 minutes, missed an open goal. Hopeless!!

Redfearn brought on two strikers for midfielders. They gave it a go and have got their reward. Powell on the other hand has us camped up at home to a team below us in the table. I'm not sure he knows what a substitution is either. I said last week that it was a lucky win and a lot of fans were overreacting to the victory. Our tactics were non-existent that day. Looks like nothing has changed. If you can't get your team motivated for a local derby then you're lacking something. It's twice we have not turned up against Leeds under him. Agree, tactical nouse of a brick wall. And he thinks we had the better of the second half, utter rubbish.

Today was a fucking joke tactically and don't give me bollocks about us saving our subs instead of injuries. Too defensive against teams in this league it's pathetic

Absolutely garbage. Powell too negative, no quality. I can't believe how bad we were and how bad the game was in general. We appeared clueless, Leeds no better. Leeds make a positive sub and hey presto 3 points!!!

We had a Butterfield cross which we could have easily converted and a header blocked wide on the 6 yard box They've had one off the line, missed an open goal, two penalty appeals in the same move and scored.
