Never thought I'd want Leeds to win a game but here we are 🤷‍♂️

Late calls to be made on Hedges, Tronstad and Gallagher. Fleck out for a month. JRC, Leonard, Carter & Barnes all still missing.

He always turns up for cup games. As soon as he gets a chance in the league he looks poor again. Hopefully JE can get him playing well in the league, as he showed what he's capable of on Tuesday.

Can't disagree with any of that. It was really good to see us mixing it up between styles tbh. Showed that JE is more than just a long ball merchant. He's got to get it right in the league but gives a huge boost going into the last part of the season.

Fair play to Ayari, Markanday & Sigurdsson, who I thought all had good games. Ayari in particular I thought was good, tenacious little bugger, gets stuck in as well. If all 3 can carry that level of performance into the league games, we suddenly look much better going into the latter part of the season.

They've spent like £400m to basically be bang average. Wasn't impressed by them at all. If that's their level, they've got some huge problems.

To a man, they have done us proud. It's a lottery now and we've played our part superbly. Cruel on either team.

Superb block from Scotty!

He started badly, then he got better and then he's gone pants again.

Yep, agreed. Lanky bugger so should be able to get on the end of some corners.

Is this the worst referring performance we've seen for some time. Terrible.

This ref is ridiculous

Absolutely wonderful stuff from Buckley.

So we're getting absolutely nothing from this ref then. Nothing. Ridiculous.

Kick off delayed by 15mins

Don't think your bet will come in, largely because you've backed us to score! 🙈 The rest is correct though.

A Moran and Buckley centre midfield partnership 🫣 Gonna be a long night. Newcastle name a very strong lineup.

No Tronstad (ankle injury) FFS!

Telalovic leading the line? 😯

It'll be a brave call to stick Koumetio into the starting 11 when he's only made the bench once and not played a single minute under the new manager. If he doesn't start Fadz, it'll be either Chrisene or Pickering in the back 3, the other at LWB.

Good move for him. Genuinely hope it works out well for him. He'll have less time to work with players so he'll need to adapt to that but I'm sure he'll do a good job.

I still get 28 in those first 18 games (undoubtedly I'll have made an error somewhere) but it's irrelevant either way, we were still conceding more goals than the majority of the league, I dont know if the averages above are in the normal ball park for goals conceded (deffo not the December onwards ones) but we weren't that good defensively (compared to the rest of the league) at best we were below average.

Have you seen any potential timescale he'll be out for? Be a shame to lose him after he only just came back.

Has there been any update on Hedges injury?

Nar we weren't. (Assuming the data I'm looking at is correct) We were 17th (joint with Plymouth) for goals conceded (28), we were propped up heavily by the fact we were the 5th higgest goal scorers by this point (31). We've been down in the lower echelons for goals conceded for the majority of the season. Clearly the wheels fell off in spectacular fashion from December onwards. Results were obviously good enough to see us sit 7th at the time but clearly the "outscoring the opposition tactic" wasn't sustainable in the long run.
