    Rowe has a right shot on him. Reminds me of Jimmy Quinn.

    Decent game.

    Can't fault the effort and a bit unlucky.

    Very well earned point there. Rowe was excellent. Get Novak up with him doing the donkey work and I think it could be a very strong partnership.

    Sutton impressive again today, full of energy.

    Enjoyed that. Some real nice passing although, at times, we did overplay it.

    Nevertheless, a well earned point (yes, could have been 3) and, perhaps more importantly, we look like a team that's going to pick up a lot more points over the coming weeks.

    At last we are starting to look like a team.

    Best commentary I've heard all season, as balanced as you can get.

    2 massive games next week now. We have to be aiming for 6 points.

    Very acceptable 0-0 away draw.

    I know someone like Keefly baulked at the idea that the goals we were scoring early on in the Trueman and Sellars era weren't replicable and unlikely to continue flying into every corner, but those of us who noted that have been proven correct. 1 goal in 3 games isn't ideal, but the fact we've conceded just ONE GOAL IN FIVE is phenomenal.

    I'll repeat: we've conceded 1 goal in the last 5 games.

    Wow.

    On the plus side, we lost our main striker today, and as a consequence Rowe was forced to play up front - where he did okay, not bad. But Rowe looks like he'll be a much bigger threat playing behind Novak, and if we can feed him he looks to have that 'shoot on sight' ability we have lacked since Deano.

    Yeah it is. First black ref in 11 years too. Hopefully he continues up the ranks. If that game was like his others id expect to see him in the championship soon. Its rare to see a ref card someone for giving lip but its something i like to see. Shows players hes in charge.

    Do you know what, the commentary was so, so good, so unbiased, and so knowledgable, (giving stats and information about both sides), that it was a breadth of fresh air for me. I could do with them two doing all our games. It just made me realise how amateurish Radio Leeds (and the old Pulse station) are/were.

    BTW- We are/were a basket case of a club since a certain person “who knows football” came and left. We have bottomed and now seem to have a better structure in place, and think/hope the corner has been turned and we are on our way back.

    Paudie will let Mullen out of his pocket after the game, Danny boy to stick a couple past them and 3 points will be coming back to West Yorkshire. Well hopefully anyway.

    Agree. I REALLY don't want us to go back to 3 at the back. It'd be madness. And the O'Connors have been in good form. Canavan will have to wait for his chance, and then take it.

    Genuinely enjoying watching this new team.

    Yeah me too. If you were a neutral observer you wouldn't be able to tell who was top of the table.
