We're doing that badly that I reckon we might actually beat Wigan next week.

Think you've had enough!!

Well I for one won't be spending £18 for a tacket and £8 for taxis when I can watch the CC game at my local for free.

If that makes me a poor supporter so be it but I'll not be the mug making an effort when the team can't.

Looking at the amazingly sp Bulls section today was a shock.

It was like having Quins as the visitors.

With everyone having to pay normal price next week I expect the home fans to be outnumbered. Really hope I'm wrong.

I won't blame anyone who chooses to do so next week.

It's not like me to duck out and watch a game on TV, but I find it hard to justify shelling out £15 to go and watch us get absolutely mullered next week

I don't think it's hard, really, because I know that the suicidal early part of the week spent whingeing, moaning and wound-licking will lift by matchday and I will end up looking forward to going to the match, - if not to watching it - and hoping (and expecting) that we will have one of the dozen or so good days that the law of averages suggests one day we will.

Defence is about structure, technique and attitude - any one component missing and it goes to cr*p. The normal missing piece when a side ships a lot of points is attitude. Most SL players know how to tackle. They also - whether they have played at the same club for years or are new - will most of the time know where they are supposed to be and what their role is.

Leeds were shipping points left right and centre early season, and seem to have started to defend better only in the last couple of weeks. Peacock's return has made a difference, but the real difference is simply attitude across the side.

You have more than a few leaders at Leeds though. We appear to have very few (if any), which made your predicament a few months / weeks back all the more surprising. Peacock, Buderus, JJB, Sinfield all command the respect of the rest of the squad and will "follow the lead" of such players. I don't think we have anyone with that character at the minute.
