Well this is a first not posting a blog to do with music!
But tonight I spent an unusual Valentines Day at the most romantic places of all - Elland Road lol! After a rather relaxed performance in the first half, Leeds obviously got a stern talking to being 1 down at half time due to a superbly taken free kick by Young. We tried a bit harder before the break and Watford Keeper and crossbar denied us.
2nd half we were out of the traps really straight away and what followed was pretty much end to end stuff. Only now Leeds seem to have a bit more urgency about the job at hand. Injured Sub Creswell came on and after about 10 minutes had a one to one with the keeper and the keeper brought him down in the area. Watford keeper got sent off and Blake scored the penalty.
5 minutes later Henderson elbowed Gregan in the face to receive their 2nd red card of the evening and now Watford are down to 9 men. What followed was rather tense as we just did not seem to be able to concede our chances and Watford looked dangerous on the counter attack.
With 9 minutes to go Blake scored a 2nd and the relief was obvious, till the 4th official showed 5 minutes extra time for stoppages. To say that it was a little nervy is putting it mildly and my fingernails are perfect proof of this. We scored a 3rd that was disallowed for offside, but thankfully the ref blew the whistle shortly after.
Nice to see Leeds United to back into 3rd place and pity Reading could not beat Sheffield United.
Yes see I do have other passions besides MUSIC!!!
