10 men and still the better side. We only get shit refs.

A ref who really, REALLY doesn't know what he's doing. 🤦‍♂️

@_ROMemorabilia_ @StephenFPI Your first mistake here is expecting any degree of consistency 😂

@StephenFPI The gnonto handball today was surely accidental as well?

That'll do. Quarter finals!

And this was just ridiculous.

Possibly the most frustrating game of football I've ever watched. Ref will need a new whistle after hammer it took tonight.

Absolutely no point even discussing it and unsettling things at this stage, he's got more than a year to go. Can wait for summer.

@NormanProctorFM You're going to see some negative trends, there's got to be a trade off somewhere when we're nowhere near the depth of quality these sides have. Survive and build is all we need to do. Year after year. Keep closing the gap.

@TSSLUFC Fair point. Still a bit worrying that is has become a noticable trend across the season not just against the top teams, something that the coaching and analysis staff could do with looking into

Against the 3rd best club in the league at their own gaff. No right to get a draw as a newly promoted side, yet here we are.

@NormanProctorFM Or it suggests we have to give a hell of a lot more in the first 75 minutes than the other team does, just to match them. Their extra quality eventually pays off. I don't think it's unexpected as a newly promoted club.

@TSSLUFC It's a good point the result isn't the issue, it's the trend of late goals suggesting a lack of fitness and/or concentration late in games. Both of which should be coachable to improve. That hasb't happened yet this season and if we stay up is a must going into next year

@markydh No, but it mitigates it somewhat. We're objectively a bottom 25% club in this league and that's where we are. People's expectations are unrealistic.

@TSSLUFC That doesn’t mean you just uncritically accept being consistently unable to see games out.

Disappointed we couldn't hold on, but it's a result we'd have been buzzing for at start of the day. #LUFC

@stevelufc01 @WestHamPlace I saw us go 4-1 up at home to Preston and then somehow lose 4-6. I've never been confident of any lead since that day.

@TSSLUFC @WestHamPlace Isn't that our default setting? We were 3-0 up v forest and I was still nervous we'd somehow manage to throw it away 😅

Ok I’ll bite… Leeds fans are waaaaay too confident about staying up They’re defiantly outsiders but they need to be careful

Agreed. He's the engine of the team.

@GravPa Mansfield felt like a problem for Leeds as well, given the number of much lower ranking teams we've struggled with in the FA Cup

@TSSLUFC Chances are they’ll be second lowest ranked team left after Mansfield. Obvz could change on Macclesfield and/or Port Vale win.

Norwich at home. Could have been worse.

Farke will be the centre of attention mind

@yoonitedLEEDS Oh yeah, it's absolutely nailed on. Away as well.

@TSSLUFC We are so getting Arsenal 😂

Last 16 draw tomorrow. Ball number 16 for Leeds.

Probably, yeah. Fully expecting away at Arsenal
