Quote ="Juan Cornetto"Big difference Sal. Those that blamed the coach last week and called for him to go had their criticism answered by the coach this week in the most emphatic way. So if they were fair minded the least they could do is give some credit this week. Indeed one or two did.
Those that defended the coach la.st week have had their opinions backed up by the excellent performance this week which had all the hallmarks of the players putting their hand up and accepting last week was down to them.'"
For the record, I have nothing but admiration for McDermott, he is a strong character and he has achieved much in his time at Leeds. However, last weeks performance was very similar to a number of other equally poor showings that have occurred under his tenure. Despite his success, we have achieved little in the way of consistency in all the time he has been at the club and it appears that there is always something missing.
As much as you seem to be satisfied with Friday's performance, Wigan were not the best opposition on the day and but for a dubious forward pass call, would have lead early in the second half.
