Shelbourne 2 Leeds 0

Leeds' final pre season game ended in another defeat. This means Peter Reids team have failed to win a pre season game, and the season starts on Sunday... We slipped to another pre season defeat, this time to the part timers of Shelbourne. We were 2 down early on, and struggled to get any kind of rythm going. Smithy tried up front, but we were over run by a side that we should have been beating at a canter. To be fair, after the break, we looked much more lively. We got some youngsters on, and Milner nad Lennon both created problems, with the former having a couple of good chances to add to his hat trick for the reserves earlier in the week. The boss though will be far from happy, and unless there is a massive improvement, we are going to have a real problem against Newcastle on Sunday..
