Why was it? Maybe some went over the top, but at that stage there was justified reason to question/criticise.

Because I thought SOME of it was unwarrented and over the top questioning if Peter Gentle even knew what he was doing. Two games that were massive banana skins the plastic Widnes pitch and the derby which I admit and I think everyone inside the club will admit was a pretty woeful display. But no one has a god given right to win. I'm happy with what's in place at the club at the moment.Hopefully the progress will continue but there will be disappointments along the way like the 2 games mentioned.

Genuine question. Why are Leeds below strength?

No Peacock, Ablett or Delaney

Ah I'm only joking anyway mate, I had some doubts after the Rovers loss but isn't it great to be proved wrong. Long may it continue!

Because they're not at full strength? Just a guess like

IF we can beat Rovers next Saturday, I can see a big crowd for the Leeds game.

True. Plus that performance on Sky last night will have done plenty for Pearson's crowd-attracting ambitions.

Deserves Full credit for turning it around ,After the rovers game thought he had lost the dressing room and was just matter of time till he went but has turned it round full circle so well done Peter

There's been the odd half hearted attempt at away games but it's never really caught on. We've wanted to BELI3VE but the consistency hasn't quite been there, but if we manage to turn over Rovers next Saturday (and our Magic record is pretty abysmal) then it's about time for an all join in chorus of:

"PETER GENTLE'S BARMY ARMY"

I'd imagine most teams have their injuries



Of those three you mention, only Delaney who would cause us real issues.

This kind of comment came out a couple of years ago, Something on the lines of Leedss being poor at the time. And you guessed it, they still spanked Hull.

We were missing Tickle, Watts, Galea, Westwrman and Arundel last night at Warrington, does than mean we were below strength?

I didn't mention anyone, and yes, we were below strength last night

Yep, agree with that my friend. He's even ordered the right colour cladding!!

You don't think the prop whose made the most meters in the comp could cause us problems? This has been Peacock's best season for a long time.

Even though we won last night we were below strength, at least two of those would be in the 17 if everyone was fit, and probably three of them.

So by definition just about every team is below strength unless they are completely injury free. Which makes the original comment fairly pointless.

I work with A few Leeds fans. Each one of them has said they wish Peacock would retire and retire sooner rather than later. Statistics can mask a lot of downsides.

You're trying a reasoned debate with a scooterboy disciple, just saying.

I'd say they're below strength if they can't field their full strength team.

From what I've seen of Leeds this season Peacock's been playing well, and although stats aren't everything the amount of meters he's making means he'd be a threat to us.

Grow up.

S. Not defensive enough to the braindead on there, I'm afraid. Up your game, Goochie! Are you scared of them?

Turned it around from good friday, we were at a real low that day. No coincidence that it ties in with our better players being fit, Ellis makes a huge difference to our spirit and our defence and DJ transforms our attack.

Young players are blossoming which is the most important thing for me, Crooks looks great right now.

But as I said, I'd imagine 95% of the time all clubs will have at least one injured player, which made the original point about Leeds being below strength largely pointless.

Peacock may have made some decend yards, but he cost Leeds a win against Bradford with ill discipline and from people who watch every Leeds game, his error count and poor off loading are outweighing thos yards made.

Of course if you've seen all of Leeds games, ill trust your judgementicon_wink.gif

Gentle has always been a good coach, there was a massive over reaction after the derby loss but his tactical coaching has been excellent, even little thing like giving Heremaia 15 mins at loose forward, playing Pitts at 13, Horney is a new player. Crooks has improved beyond expectations.

Always laugh when I see the word shellacking. Cheers Easty. Here's hoping for a great game on Saturday.

With an FC win of course

Well said. Completely agree.

It's looking black and white
