THIS was one of those draws were you thought Leeds could have edged it but it wasn't to be. But hey look on the bright side we're un-beaten at home and we got a clean sheet!

For the first teen minutes Leeds dominated play and on four minutes they and just about everyone in the ground thought that Leeds had taken the lead through Loraine Sakho. But the linesman who was poor throughout managed to judge Sakho offside.

Leeds maintained the pressure and on 35 minutes Seth Johnson forced Saints keeper Dave Jones into a very good save. You thought it was only a matter of time before we scored but we never managed it. Southampton's best chance came after 42 minutes when Jasson Dodd forced Robinson in to action for one
of the few times in the game.


Penant won the official websites Mom poll.

The official website gave the man of the match to Penannt but I think Camara just edged it with his excellent tackling. Also Skaho impressed again as did Johnson and Morris. Despite Alan 'I Love Man. United' Green saying it was a 'boring game' I was a good game which we were unlucky to draw. For the third straight game now we've had slack officiating which has cost us a lot of points. But we showed again our battling attitude and it almost payed off.

Hopefully we can get a win before the international break and we can get a few more goals. Next stop: Boro
