LEEDS FANS LOOK AWAY
OFF THE MARK
SENSATIONAL START
It’s been one of those games where you just didn’t want the half to end.
We’ve had a disallowed goal, a fantastic freekick and a freakish own goal all in the first 45. We have definitely been spoilt so far.
I did hope for fireworks at the beginning and this game has been a cracker.
