I can’t believe someone actually offered money for Lati and we didn’t sell him.

Why did the ref not let us play?

Cos they’re top of the league and asked him not to let us.

Grimes has looked technically excellent. But blimey, he likes to play deep.

Full time assessment:

Leeds were great. We had our first off game in a while. We move on.

All I can say on reflection of 2nd half performance we get some credit - but fuck me we were cut apart

First half killed us, really.

Better second half, although saying that Leeds should have scored more.

Not one to dwell on too much, I don't think. It was always going to be a tough one, but we were far too meek in the first half.

How many times do we needlessly foul when we have an offensive indirect free kick? Takes the pressure off carelessly. Counted 3 times this evening.

this could’ve been 2-2, which would’ve been completely undeserved but a better 2nd half from us to be fair

there have been a couple of really poor performances though, regardless of the opposition, Latibeaudiere in particular has been really bad shocking, and Sakamoto looks a bit lost recently

oh well, at least it wasn’t a cricket score

We've ended up assisting them on both goals. Simms with a killer defence splitting pass for the first and Dovin making sure Bogle had the ball delivered to him on a plate.

Second half much better going forward. High line was risky but works against worse teams. Run of winnable games now.

I think we wanted to sell but the offer timed out before he actually got there.

Least the margin wasn't as big as it should have been. Lampard quite badly exposed tonight though having said that they are just a lot better than us. Lots of players were very poor. All round a disappointing night. Let's make a fist of a play off push but let's be honest we're a very very very long way off still.

We were thrashed 2-0, could of been many more, but poor finishing and good keeping from Dovin kept the score down.

Leeds are the best team we've faced by far.
But we now know how far we need to improve.

Thank god we dont have to play them again. They are just levels above us.

No idea how they didn't score at least 8 but equally we could have snatched a draw. Bizarre game.

2 positives from that game. Dovin had a class game (their 2nd goal aside but that could go down to the entire team that allowed his run from halfway) and secondly, Grimes looks a class act. Every time he had the ball he looked composed amd found a sky blue shirt. Pretty sure he had a 100% pass success rate tonight. He should've started. When he didn't, he should of been bought on at HT

Exactly this. It doesn’t really need overthinking.

Thought he was excellent apart from the costly mistake in the first half (which was somewhat unfortunate anyway).

Nevermind. At least we kept it to only 2 goals.

Grimes looked decent from his cameo.

Concentrate on the next league game and get a result.

Wasn't expecting anything from tonight. Leeds looked class and a step up from us.

Despite how poor we were, we've still had a good run so it goes down as a shocker of a day at the office but hopefully it's a one off.

Grimes looked class.

Onto the cup then...

How many times has a team scored 9 in the championship? It just doesn’t happen. They probably had like 3xg tops

Mad thing is this Leeds side will get arse raped week in week out next season and come straight back down

And we can't lay a glove on them

We've improved massively but games like this show we are still a million miles away from the promised land

It's getting boring listening to Rob Gurney being an after timer that's obviously still crying over MR. Talking as if we'd have won if he was in charge. Bellend.

Second half was much better. We were a bit open, but that's always going to be the case when you're chasing.
