Bunn did very well but no more than a good keeper should do. Our problem is that we are recalibrated by mediocrity all over the pitch from past 5 seasons.

I liked Burton supporters. Nice decent people. Thursday night scum will turn up and stink the place out.

I didn't make much of Burton's support, they all sat. There were taunts of "sat down on yer big out" and I heard someone say shout f off  back to Staffordshire from a Villa fan, which sorts out the rubbish we hear from Small Time Heath and the local rag that we are supposed to be  from there.
I fucked off back to Staffordshire after the game as I live there, along with many, many others.

Yep, doing the basics seem like a bonus after 5 years of crap. Hutton seems unable to grasp this still.

Not for me, burton's support resembled a SWP rally,  they all looked the same all in wooly hats and scarves to match. Leeds have more traditional away support nearly all male and majority not in club colours, manures is the same. I would say our away support is 70% male not in club colours.

Burton's support was pretty good.  Ours was very quiet for most of the game.  What was going on in the lower North? The Villa fans seemed very animated towards the Burton fans.

Jedinak is a dreadful footballer.  He basically hoofs it at every possible opportunity and then we wonder why we give the ball away.  We need a minimum of two midfielders next month but Jedinak needs replacing more than Gardner.   At best he is the player you bring on with 10 min to go.

He breaks up the oppositions attacks and wins everything in the air, he's the least of our worries, we should be buying midfielders to play with him not looking to get rid of him.

Fans attend December match in hats and scarves, shocker.

What exactly is your point? Are you saying the Burton fans weren't a serious 'crew'? Not enough mouth foaming, knuckle dragging Neanderthals?

If so, that supports my opinion of them.  Seemingly genuine, decent football supporters enjoying one of the biggest days out they are likely to experience in the league.

A midfielder should be able to break up attacks AND then pass it forward to a team mate.

Correct and ideally what Gardner and Westwood should do but as has been said Jedinak is the least of our worries. There is no chance that Bruce will replace him.

I was in the north lower, burton was singing some Saville song. A fat bold burton fan with glasses was spotted and there were chants of peado at him.

Damn! Wish I'd been there.
