Newcastle FC 1 Leeds United 1 – Brazilian Brilliance

A much improved display but still not yet firing on all cylinders with the lack of firepower on goal. So slightly disappointing to see Leeds not put the game to bed.
The trials and tribulations of supporting Leeds United

A much improved display but still not yet firing on all cylinders with the lack of firepower on goal. So slightly disappointing to see Leeds not put the game to bed.

The initial promise last season when Leeds United rattled Liverpool FC in their first game of the season was missing today – is this a sign of second season syndrome?
