It looked like a golf fairway where no one had replaced their divots and just filled them with sand. The ball was bobbing all the time no wonder Barnsley don’t play it on the floor. People have hammered the Wednesday pitch but from what I’ve seen there’s lots more worse. People including our own fans have hammered the pitch - it needs reseeding and stripping back every summer and there was no time to do so. Leeds pitch is woeful along with many others across the country. Ours is not the best but by no means the worst 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope Moore sticks with it, and isn't tempted to tinker needlessly. x10 This will be the perfect epitaph for this season. And the blueprint of Windass/Rhodes was all there in the very first game of the season away to Cardiff (but of course, Monk could barely wait to drop Rhodes). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a quick scan through our games, and from my reckoning, we've started with a Rhodes/Windass in a either a front two/three, on only five occasions. Our results in those five games.. Won 2, Drawn 2, Lost 1. The game we lost, was against Norwich, Rhodes was taken off when we score's were level. In those five games, Rhodes has got four goals, and one assist (for Windass), and Windass has two, and two assists (both for Rhodes). Small sample size, but it's without doubt our most fruitful combination of strikers. And yet, we've seemed to go with every other combination bar that one, from GW 3 through to GW34. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monk did exactly the same with Fletcher-Rhodes. Tried it, it worked, he dropped it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And like you say start of the season 4 points from 2 tough games and then dropped straight after. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
