With Leeds United tasting disappointment for the first time in the 2018/19 Championship campaign as we went down 2-1 to Birmingham City in the weekend’s clash at Elland Road, plenty of fans reacted badly on social media.
With plenty believing we could’ve more than got something from the game given the chances we fashioned, it was just one of those days up front really and the disappointment for many was palpable.

Others, however, weren’t quite as reactionary to the result as they had better accepted that we will have dips in form, not everything will go our way across a season and they were happy to enjoy the unbeaten run for what it was, and after the defeat, now just look to the next batch of games as we endeavour to start a second unbeaten run of the season.
Captain Liam Cooper was interviewed by club staff following the game, and fans were happy with his words.
top man @LiamCooper__ we go again next week

We’re a brilliant team and it’s just one game lads, we will bounce back and get the promotion #CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE

Calls for Europe may be a little ahead of schedule, but one game doesn’t make a season.
