A Good Away Win at Brighton

Leeds are back to winning ways with a good 2 nil win at Brighton. I watched the highlights on LUTV and I wasn't very impressed with the way Leeds played. It looked like they were lucky because Brighton missed some good chances and the Leeds defence still looks shaky despite two new on loan defenders in the team.

Fabian Delph added a few extra pounds to his valuation with a stunning goal for Leeds. He ran with the ball from just outside his own penalty area and then hit a beautiful left foot shot from distance, giving the keeper no chance.

Next week Leeds play Peterborough and we really do need a convincing victory.

Simon Grayson - New Leeds Manager

I have to say that I am very pleased with the appointment of Simon Grayson. I have seen some interviews with him and he looks and sounds smart and talks sense. He seems to have condidence in his abilities, whereas Gary McAllister didn't seem to have that. Leeds got off to a good start under Grayson's management so things are looking up again. With half the football season still left to play there is still plenty of time to get into a strong position to get promotion.

Good luck to Leeds United and Simon Grayson in 2009.
