Naw I don't think so... not with his knees
and besides do you know how long it takes to get a man bun
back into perfect condition? It's not worth the effort expecially
with no crowd watching.

I should, but I don't... never resorted to the man bun yet or pony tail...

Finally got to see the game. Some thoughts:

Based on this one game, there isn't a single one of their players I would rather have than any of ours. We were clearly superior at every position.

Our central four of Gruev, Kamara, Rodon, and Ampadu were dominant. They never were able to create any offensive continuity.

Georginio was immense. So very glad to see his hard work rewarded with a goal.

Maybe not Summerville's best day, but he and Firpo gave them fits with their speed all day long.

The team's work rate and cohesion were reminiscent of Bielsa's. If the squad continue to play like this they could very well meet with the same sort of success.

A long trip on a cold day to a place where we historically have not done well, but dominated from start to finish and came away with three points. A very, very good day.

Speaks volumes Weasel, they're ALL enjoying it, and not only that, they're buying into what he wants.

Presumably CC wasn't, not rocket science is it.

I would suggest the latter - what I really enjoyed about today’s performance was how hard we worked to regain possession. We have been doing this most of the season but today we looked very ruthless at hunting the opposition down.
Everyone had a decent game.
I think that they were on a par with Birmingham...BUT we were excellent and fully exploited their many weaknesses....times in the past where we wouldn't have done that !

Once is an instance, twice and you might begin to think there's a trend developing.

At some point we have to believe that everyone's looking dire against us might have something to do with us. :)

I just love watching Georgie Rutter's excitement. Very boyish and happy. Just loves what he's doing. And doing it well.

Thank you Victor Orta (oops ... I didn't say that)

The number of times this season I've heard, "In truth they were very poor"

We're good (on our day). That's the truth.

Georginio reminds of a little boy opening his presents on Christmas Day.

Great to see him so happy :-D

Exactly, we have some fans who seem to find it hard to give praise when its due. They tend to look for the bad things in the other teams as a way of not wanting to praise their own team.
Being annoyed when your team is doing badly ( and i dont mean just a few bad passes during the game ) is all part and parcel of the game, but there has to be a balanced approach to it.

Blimey I worked in Leeds for years as a paramedic and I never knew that was the name of that road. Every days a school day eh.
