He will serve his suspension when Leeds play Reading (#tinpot) so giving our rivals a slight advantage.

Will it not be a chance for someone else to impress and be first choice? I don't know much about Leeds squad, but things like this are always a chance for fringe players to stake their claim.

I`ve heard some bull in my time but this takes the biscuit... are you seriously suggesting we would be better off if umpire had not spotted handball on line???

So, by using your argument, the sending off of Bong at Cardiff was advantageous to Leeds? It wasn't, we coped, we overcame, we won. I trust that Leeds will do the same against Reading.

I give up, you lot are a load of thickos.
:dunce:

Another intelligent statement ???

1.we`d have been better off if ref hadn`t spotted handball on line so denying us a penalty and allowing Leeds to keep 11 players on pitch

2. Anyone pointing out errors in your argument is a thicko.

Did I say that ? No. I said his suspension gives Reading an advantage when they play Leeds

2. Anyone pointing out errors in your argument is a thicko.

Again, No. Anyone taking the above statement and extrapolating, incorrectly, that I thought we'd be better off without a penalty is a thicko.

No point over-analysing cards and suspensions and who they are against IMHO. Thought Bong's suspension might be costly against a highly rated winger, but Pogognoli had him in his pocket all game and was a great asset coming forward. As someone else said earlier, 1 players suspension is another's opportunity, although I accept Leeds perhaps don't have the strength in depth we have

Let's not look at other factors , players suspended, shit refs etc, just concentrate on what we do when it matters.
