  UNBEATEN IN SEVEN GAMES! (Leeds 1 - 1 Brighton, Sat 29th Jan 05)

  Sunday, 30th January 2005 .

 

 

 

 

  Flying High Report:

 

Guy Butters took advantage of the chance he had in the 81st minute, getting a well earned equaliser. We are now unbeaten in seven CocaCola Championship League games - an excellent achievement for McGhee and the rest of the team. We reported in our preview on Thursday that Guy Butters had just signed a new deal to stay at the club until 2006, and this shows the club have made the right decision to hold on to him.

 

Two minutes before half time, it looked like Leeds were in control and could hold on until full time to grab three points, taking them nearer the play offs. However, it wasn't to be, and after the break we came back stronger, improving on our play in the first half.

 

An what an excellent welcome for Ken Bates, watching all the action from the directors' box for the first time since completing the take over last week. Everything seemed to be going to plan for them, with Clarke Carlisle scoring their first and only goal of the game.

 

Loan keeper Yelldell had an excellent game yesterday, producing the 'save of the match' to keep out Kelly's shot, which would prove vital to securing our point from the game.

 

Another game where we continued to improve throughout. If we continue to play like we have picking up points, there will be no problem with staying up for another season in the Championship...

 
 
  Managers Comments: (Leeds United)

 

"We felt that we got ourselves in a position to win the game and it's disappointing that we didn't.

"It has happened on several occasions this season and it's something that we need to address. We should be able to win games.

"We had a great chance right after half-time and mentally it's hard to take at the present time."

 

  Managers Comments: (Brighton)

 

"To go through the whole of January undefeated - I would have taken that at the start of the month," he said.

"I think we deserved a point. I thought they edged the first half and were the better side, although we were still disappointed to go in a goal behind.

"Once we got going in the second half, and put Adam Virgo up front, we deserved our equaliser."
