Joe Royle 1 David O'Leary 0

Brain patterns......

Electrical spark 1 - Joe Royle.....Leeds have been playing 4-3-3....maybe I
could crowd the midfield and starve them of any chances. Stop Dacourt and Bowyer, dont bother marking Jones, pressurise Duberry cos he's a donkey and get physical with Bridges cos he cant play if
he's got a man on him.

Electrical spark 2 - O'Leary.....We played this shower of shite in the cup last season.....5-2 to us.. murdered them.....we played 4-4-2 and lots of width and passed it on the deck....nah i'll stick with 4-3-3 and hump it
long.

Electrical spark 3 - Joe Royle.....if they get on top i'll break their momentum by having my players fall about. Anybody being substituted will take 3 mins to walk to the touch line...or else.

Electrical spark 4 - O'Leary.....oh dear ! we are 2-0 down at half time. We're losing the midfield and cant control the game..shall I switch tp 5-3-2 or 4-4-2 to attempt to redress the balance ? Hmm hope the missus has got something nice for my supper.....oh...ermmm....SAME AGAIN LADS BUT MORE
EFFORT AND MORE LONG BALLS !

Electrical spark 5 - O'Leary.....20 mins to go...we need another goal....if only we had a £5m striker on the bench to bring on...all we have is Huckerby...ah well...i only bring that caaaant on when we're 3-0 up with 5
mins to go....Evans get warmed up....

Electrical spark 6 - O'Leary.....15 mins to go...we need another goal....hmmm the irish lad Kelly is getting a lot of space down the right....pity he cant cross the ball....hey ! we've got Millsey to inject a
bit of pace and freshness into the game....oh no i cant be arsed....SAME AGAIN LADS ! KNOCK IT LONGER ! yum...Hope she's doing me a chinky ...mmm .... or a big bowl of potatoes...

Electrical spark 7 - Joe Royle.....Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells....oh what fun it is to see a mediocre City win away.

Lucky or Unlucky ?
---------------------------

Unlucky - They hit the bar and scored from the rebound, we hit the bar and
it bounced out.
Lucky - Everton, Boro and Munich squandered chances in the games with
them.
Unlucky - We have a few players out injured.
Lucky - Smithy is scoring goals off his arse.
Unlucky - Man City had the audacity to score at OUR ground ! TWICE !
Lucky - that its Viduka's last game for 2 months - HURRAH !

for all the pessimists.....

Played 5
Won 4
Lost 1

Viduka will come good but he needs confidence and a box of Standard
Fireworks up his large behind.
