Although we threw away points in the last 2 games at the end! Who would have been happy with 5 points considering the last 3 games? If u were asked last week?

The problem is going to be the last game of the season. Am sure we will require a win to guarantee 6th. Winning at Watford will be difficult. I think we are just going to fall short.

I think we will end up on 77 points this season and the Watford and Brighton games won't matter by the time we actually get to them
Agree1
Disagree7
To second poster, for Brighton & Watford not to matter we need to be 7 points clear. We are already 5 points behind. In your 9 games, there's 27 points to play for. Are you serious that all of the chasing pack won't bag more than 15 or 16 points over the next 9 games? One of them, probably Forest, will at least bag 18 my opinion.

I feel bad for white he did really well the warnock comes and whites does not even get a look at a starting spot and I know warnock is good but white could be brilliant player in the future

White is the weakest link. We should get rid. Have said this consistently. Warnock's problem is that he persisted with White for far too long.

to be fair white did start to have some good games just before warnock arrived but at end of the day warnock is better and white can continue to learn. i'm sure white will be needed at some point

got to be positive about 2 draws against 2 top teams. if we can go undefeated the rest of the season playoffs are a prospect, but i'm staying grounded for now. we're not good enough for promotion.

Going unbeaten could be drawing every game! I think we should put ross as an impact player and put ryan hall in his place. Before I am shot down I love rossco and have been his biggest fan but take him relieve the pressure and let him get his mind set for the long 10 games ahead

We are definately playing better but our last Three away games Wolves, Leicester and Palace we have drawn conceding a goal in the closing minutes how vital they could turn out to be. Warnock is a real addition to the back four and Byram and Lees look better for him being there -

Can't wait to hear everyone's opinion of Morrison now. Scrolling down the threads on here everyone and his dog thinks he's crap but what a difference a day makes. I wonder what people think of him now.
Believable15
Unbelievable1
We are now set up to make a huge push for the playoffs. We have a good run of games coming up where we should be picking up maximum points from, we have a team to be proud of and neil warnock is the king as leeds go marching on. We are the most accurate team in the league based on our shot - goal conversion rate, our defence is fantastic and Morison and habibou will come good and luke varney can sod off quite honestly, diving, laughing when he makes a mistake and just not doing anything. The only bad thing about today was the late goal which was always coming to be honest and that scuffle at the end stopped me from meeting neil as he had to break it up ( I was in the palace end)

I think he will score a lot of goals in the last lot of games and his work rate is great. I think McCormack is struggling with confidence and really needs a goal as he is shooting from everywhere
Agree4

Mccormack has always shot from anywhere, he is a continental style striker with a brit attitude of keep running.
with a bit more luck he could be a top-top striker the new robbie keane perhaps.
dont get on his back or the bugger might leave, I see him as are best player at the moment

agreed great game too! were in a good position now if we can keep playing like this we won't be far off! that was a good performance today. Well done to morrison a few goals were needed from him and he has stepped up today. Also tom lees was fantastic at the back today. Come on leeds let's get in the playoff places looks like 5th and 6th are anyones so why not us!

Steve Warnock gave it away, lapse of concentration for there equaliser.

Warnock also won us 3 points against millwall with the penalty
Agree15

Why didn't kenny come the full way he started to then back tracked wouldn't bame warnock and kenn ykept us in the game early harsh to blame the last goal on our players like morison, murray took his goal well
Agree6
Disagree0
That last goal was not just one players fault! Green should have come out to the other lad quicker, warnock should have marked Murray better and Kenny hesitated as to whether to come and punch the ball clear or stop the shot on the line. he did neither!
Agree4
Disagree0
True true I ithnk it was a bit of both tbh thow Warnock looked knackered at the end of the game, maybe give white a run out on tues?. also if i'm honest Warnock could have been sent off for his challenge same goes for varney he need to chill out looks like a pretty dirty player

Took the lead. Ten minutes to go. Just cannot under any circumstances keep a lead. Leeds such massive jokers, so unprofessional. So exasperating. Don't deserve playoffs.

I watched the game on line, Leeds played their hearts out, just wish we'd had this team earlier in the season. Crystal Palace are a very good side
Agree16

More depressive banter. My view of the game is that we played away from home we came from behind took the lead failed to hold that lead an dgot a draw which is quite good against a team who are on fire at the minute and that cut Hull to pieces in there last game, and i'm sure we can all remember what Hull did to us? So I think we can be happy with the performance and result today.
Agree20

OP here. I know where people are coming from. Away at a good team, improving performances, improving results etc. I also agree that a point would have been a good result before the game. I probably a glass half empty character at times and maybe I should take the positives. However, it drives me crazy we can't just go the extra mile and do what we need to do. We can never hang on! Wolves- late goal conceded, Boro- late goal conceeded, Leicester- v late goal conceeded, today- late goal conceeded. That's a trend. It is unprofessional and it is really frustrating when we NEED the 3 points realistically if we are to get promotion, which we all desperately want. So while its all well and good to see the positives you can't get away from the bottom line- we needed the point and didn't get them. Should be able to hang on.
Agree4
Disagree0
Gzzzzz. What do you have to do to get prays from a Leeds fan on here. Grow up and support the team not drag it down. A draw away from home is a good point. Not to mention we couldn't get a point not 10 games ago. Support the team and players.
Agree5
Disagree1
Whats unprofessional exactly?
We went out to win, didn't.
Get over it!
before the game we would all have taken the point.
Yes we were winning and its frustrating to only get a point, but its not like we sat back and tried to hold the win.
We went for more and Mccormack probs should have scored.
Draw was a fair result now on to Peterborough and 3 points.

I agree with the second poster to some extent. Apart from S Warnock & S Morision we did have this team earlier in the season but and Warnock thought his best midfield included Austin & Brown and not Norris & Green. Those two unsung heros have been terrific lately and should have been chosen ahead of the aforementioned midfield minders as they give us better options going forward. They are also cover back and don't waste the ball as much.

Just watched first half and as much as I like McCormack he has a shoot from anywhere mentality when there are better options and why is he back heeling everything? Diouf not made the bench? what are our attacking options?
I'll bet brown gets on and yabadabdo (headless duck)
hope he plays up front and not fom the wing.

Which 3 players would you lot like leeds to sign if we go up and in we stay in championship?
If we go up I would like jay rodriguez, josh mcechrean (loan) and matt phillips.
If we stay down I think habibou (permenant), adomah and will keane
Just my opinion but will keane can play cb or cm.

I went to leciester, we can't keep playing the same 11 players match for match for 90mins, Morison worked his socks of for the 90mins, unfortunately the last 15 was without the ball, as against Millwall we need fresh legs to see the game out, at least bring Diouf on or give Habobou a chance, someone who can hold the ball up.

Thatll be warnock
Hasnt got a clue
Scared manager that dosent want to change anything because he thinks he can get another season
God. I hope not

If we go up:
Darren Bent

Richard Smallwood
If we stay in championship:
