Straight to the point, Leeds fell to Blue Square Premier side Histon 1-0 today. The non-league side scored six minutes before the break as Matthew Langston, a postal worker by-trade (who yes, can now say he “delivers”), headed-in Gareth Gwillim’s cross. Leeds were provided a number of opportunities to score but were unable to do [...]

“We’ve got to be up for these battles” said Leeds manager Gary McAllister on the BBC following the pathetic 2-1 loss to Northampton.

“When we’re going away to grounds – I don’t watch Northampton week-in week-out, but the effort used by them, is that the same every week here? If it was, they’d maybe be [...]

Leeds suffered an excruciating 2-1 loss at Sixfields against Northampton Town in League One action that was a by-product of both over-confidence and the lack of urgency in the attack.

As Gary McAllister looks ahead to Hartlepool United’s visit of Elland Road on Saturday afternoon he is, hopefully, beginning to see a rather unremarkable pattern of play from Leeds. I won’t bother with the rather foolish commentary that Leeds should be distancing themselves from the rest of the table by now but instead point out [...]
