Well three weeks ago Father Brian was walking on water, now he is sinking like the proverbial Steve Stone! Much more of this, and Leeds fans will be reminiscing about the good old days of Master Bates and Old Big Gob Warnock!
And talking of Warnock, some will note that McDermott's Leeds now occupy fifteenth place in the table, and that is as low as Leeds sank under his predecessor. If this is the "steady progress" that Leeds fans were predicting as the season kicked off, then that progress is as Irish as McDermott's parentage!
The play off places are now a frightening seven points away and a break away group seems to be forming, with the table having a much more clear cut look about it this season than last. The teams at the bottom look likely to stay at the bottom, and with Leeds equidistant, points wise, from seventh place and third from bottom, that is a small mercy to be savoured.
McCormack's Mcgoals have Mcdried up since he got his extended Mccontract and two shots on target all game, despite enjoying, ironically, the Lion's share of the possession, says everything that needs to be said about the potency of this Leeds team. Collectively, they couldn't score in a brothel!
Of course, as a West Ham fan, I am none too pleased to see Millwall win, but it's good to see a West Ham old boy, in the shape of Steve Lomas, enjoying a victory. Not so long ago, it was Lomas under pressure as McDermott collected the accolades, but now the Leeds manager might start seeing the attraction of managing Ireland!
The Feel Good Factor Sleeper Express to the Premiership, Europe, Infinity and Beyond seems to have derailed dramatically. And Leeds fans had better pray that the takeover rumours harden up, because for as long as the Arab Bank Built on Sand retain control of the club, the Premiership will remain a distant dream.
For those who care: Hull City 1, West Ham 0.
ReplyDeleteHF just doesn't care.
Wow Rob, you got back quickly from London! Case of a quick evacuation with South London mongrels snapping at your arse perhaps?
DeleteMind you, you didn't waste any time visiting this site did you? Looking for information to help you write a report on your beloved Leeds perhaps?

Just got back in the Fresh air of the North! The Soothsayer doesn't attend any away matches..and is seldom at Elland Road. It's typical of him to shift the focus onto the demise of other teams. Man U. losing and West Ham losing does not help Leeds!! Tell him to get his Revie VHS tapes out....incidentally HF I always read your reports on West Ham at least you are fair and objective..

DeleteHF posting as alter see through ego Jack!
Deleteoh well.theres still a long way to go.
ReplyDeletei see west ham lost again!
The funny thing about you Hammersfan is not you and Atkinson squabbling like a pair of pre-pubescent school boys. It's the fact that the corpse of West Ham's 1-0 defeat to Hull is not even warm and you are pounding out your Leeds drivel.
ReplyDeleteThis is proof positive( if ever it was really needed) that Leeds mean more to you than your own Team.
A real supporter would not be in the mindset to even think about another team so soon after a defeat, let alone write this load of Mccrap.
Closet Millwall fan.
ReplyDeleteI have started to read your blogs just before bedtime,because they really help me get to sleep,better than counting sheep,all because you are so very very boring and predictable,come on orient,next season you will have a great derby against the hammers,or should I say mallets!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to take when we are actually playing relatively well yet we just can't score for the life of us! :-(
