Fickle or not fickle, they're still one of two or three set of home fans that you can actually hear in a normal PL game
Which was why it was so satisfying to have got them relatively quiet. The main noise they were making just before the equaliser was booing their own team! Now they are all excited again and gearing up to sign some more homphobic chants.

Good shot, unlucky deflection, he was given far too much time to shape up for it. . . HArsh but we'll up our game and Leeds don't offer much threat. Bamford just needs to be kept quiet.

We’ve been in control but a bit sloppy with the passes. Hugely unlucky with their goal but Veltman shouldn’t have been caught there.

I’m not worried yet, we look like we can get more against Leeds’ defence

Decent first half. Less control but overall better than first half against West Ham.

They certainly got some energy from that goal though. Won't be easy this.

Half time can't come soon enough imo.

I predict a lot of our fans on here will say that we're not performing well, but that's an obtuse view. We had a decent first half.

Credit to Leeds, who set up to defend well from the start against us, and performed really well in doing so. They are making it really difficult for us.

We have been the better side. We probably deserve to be winning, were it not for a frankly unstoppable goal.

RDZ will have to mastermind something to win this today. Leeds will carry on as they are - defending with all their men behind the ball, with a hard press - hoping to get us on the break, which they could very well do again.

This is a really physical contest that only an early goal from us can possibly see us win convincingly. It could go either way IMO.

Frustrating half. Had the game under control and it looked like it would take an error by us for them to score, which happened. Plenty of chances for us but finishing poor so far. Should still be ours to lose.
Lucky goal from them - span along the line from a deflection - Bamford got ball out feet then a big deflection - very lucky. At least they’re playing football tbf but the homophobia from the stands has completely overshadowed anything they do on the pitch I’m afraid.

Leeds defended well?

What are you watching… they’ve been atrocious at the back, we could have scored 3/4 there, easily.

I'd like to offer an opinion on the first half but my stream died after 10 minutes. I then spent the next 20 trying to find one that worked, finally managed it just in time to see Ally Mac's goal and then it died again a few minutes later. Found another one just in time to see Bamford fluke a deflection over Steele.

It's typical really. I rarely had any trouble getting a working stream when we were bottom five every season but now we're good and it's a joy to watch every week is a struggle.
