But a Leeds win to pile a bit more pressure on Fulham, would put us 5 behind them with a game in hand. Mitrovic should have had a red then in the first couple of minutes, deliberate elbow, shocking.

Really not sure who I want to win this one.....as you say it goes against the grain to want Leeds but....
I would think that Fulham will be missing Mitrovic for a few games, that elbow has to be viewed as a red retrospectively.
Am I missing something? Isn't it 4 points with no game in hand? :sherlock:Quote:

Ah, I made the mistake of reading the ‘in play’ table before Leeds scored.Quote:

Steve McLaren on H/T substitutions "I really admire Bielsa and the way he changes the personnel".... expect a Fulham revival then :hehe:
It's time for a reminder....

Sorry can't get link to work
To be fair he's trying to adopt a better style, I note today defenders where happy to move the ball across the back line rather than hoof , it's not his fault he has adopted a squad that lack that Fulham type player and style, I've been impressed by the last two games and yes they could make the play offs this year ,especially if we can get Tomlin match fit .Quote:

What a gift goal. That's it then.
Agree with all this, although Preston did play into our hands a bit as our passing has been known to go awry at times and a pressing game might have seen us go long a bit more.Quote:

I too am pleased for Herr Glatzel :thumbup:
3 nil Leeds.
Ball over the top from his own half to Jack Harrison who hits it into the goal....
"That's premier league quality" :sherlock:
Edit: Turning it off now, it's becoming a little bit nauseating!
Don't think we have anything to fear from Fulham unless they improve dramatically in the next few weeks.
Not if they are they in freefall again, and were in the ascendancy, what I do know about this league togetherness , adapting to opponents, and smart thinking gets you up , let's do it for Whitts , I hear you cry ?Quote:
