"It's not the first time they've done it is it but that shows the great belief they have," Wilson told Pools World.

"We defended for our lives as the game went on, especially in the last five minutes but we suffered from one lapse of concentration.

"If you give that to team of Leeds' calibre then they'll take it - we're disappointed to lose it so late but overall it was a very good performance from us.

"We raised our game fantastically well and I felt we were worthy of getting three points."

got to agree chip we let them off the hook first half and if any of the five decent chances were taken it could have been so different

but why the heck did wilson not use up the other 2 subs? Its criminal, it really is. A few of our players notably Barker and Liddle were blowing out of their arses and we all know how dangerous Leeds are in the final few minutes. Surely any manager worthy of his salt would have wasted a few minutes and brought some fresh legs on

To be fair that goal was always going to come, we know what they do in the las 10 minits and we just sat deeper and deeper. There was some excellent performances and twas a cracking boxing day game :wink:

I said the same, but i was also puzzled as to why there were so many players forward for the free kick that Elliott took when he was having a shot. It dragged everyone out of posistion.

i also think that Sweeney is a jinx.....

Their goal reminded me of Brightons last minute goal, a shot across Budzt into his left hand post.

I'm confident we can beat Orient on Saturday. They'll be under a bit of pressure to get a result to stay amongst the leaders, and I think they'll come up short of the required quality and character to do that (i.e. come here and win).

I have always been confident of beating Orient, maybe I just keep thinking back to how we mauled them at their place.
