Just watched this for the first time since being there on the day and what a game! Enthralling, even though I remember we won I forgot how, and Pedersen! Why did that guy have like 4 games a season like this, and the rest he was dire?
The move for the Djorkaeff goal though was sublime. One touch passing, it was something we expected Leeds to do to us that day I seem to remember. Hopefully we can get back some of that this year.
I miss Pedersen. I know he was a lot injuried in the last two years, but now when Anelka is gone we could really use him, because he surely knew how to score goals
In fairness, it took him 18 months to score his first for the club, he had a few good games but was less than prolific. Though, with Davies out, I can't see Helguson leading the line. He could have been handy, I guess.
That´s true. I have the seasons highlights DVDs 03/04 and 04/05 and Henrik shows top quality. Im sure he could have scored goals for os now. I still think it was a mistake from Sammy Lee not to give him a new contract
As a Leeds fan, I agree that this was a fantastic game for any viewer, though I was so angry at the time! Bolton were bottom of the league at the time too, weren't they? And didn't bag many goals on the road, then they were on fire in this game and I can remember them hitting the woodwork a couple of times too. The full-time whistle brought a chorus of "BOOOOOO!!!" lol
djorkaeff and okocha.they where the days. pity ricketts turned into a tosser.
