I was at the game and found myself rather embarrassed by our performance. Towards the end of the game we joined in with mk fans in singing "premier league your having a laugh" bad display for the "travelling" away fans. I attend most home games for the r's and was ashamed of our display. Let's just hope we win replay so we can face the blue scum. You can stick the blue flag up your a#%e..

Huge disappointment to the travelling support. We were well beaten in many ways and in my view were lucky to come away only two goals against.
The line up did not seem to work for us today. Bog on the left, Ormerod central sometimed switching with Ball who played high up in support. It seemed to make it difficult for us to get it out of defence and was constantly being broken down on the wings.
Give credit to a rejuvinated Harlepool who were really up for it and played at a higher tempo than us on this occasion.
No doubt Beechy has a great deal to ponder after this match.

Just heard the news about Neil Warnock and sorry to see the big man go. However it was inevitable following our dreadful run of results and heres hoping that the board can bring in the right man to rescue our season. I see QPR have Chelsea in round four of the cup if we can manage to overcome MK in the replay. Any news on Ali Faurlin???

Hi,I was at the game last night nd I have ben supporting Leeds for 30 years.First the support was FANTASTIC even though ESPN may not have liked it.I have memories of Leeds in their heyday but I have to say last night showed the Gulf between Leeds now and the Prem.The players effort was exellent and the stand out players in order were White,Lees O:Dea,Pugh,Clayton,Townsend nd then the rest.I do not understand why MacCorrmack didnt start and I am puzzled at the way Larry chops and changes the team.In my opinion its a case of what do I do next???? I thank him for what he has done but ask is he a his limit??????

Lost before we'd started so gave them all a zero

For the first 20 minutes things looked quite promising but the Derry challenge on Cabaye seemed to act as a wake up call for Newcastle and their fans. Prior to that they could barely string two passed together. Luke Young at fault for the Best goal perhaps, but he took it well to be fair.

Bothroyd's miss in the second half was that of a player clearly lacking confidence in front of goal.

Given the chances we created, a draw would not have flattered us but i'm sure thats been said a few times this season. We desperately need to start scoring some goals. Next seven games will define our season. Come on u R's!

Another defeat for QPR and relegation on the horizon if we don't return handsomely in the run-up to the Man U game next April. Encouraging performance yesterday but poor finishing as usual undid all our good work. Cup game tomorrow night and we need a win to lift morale for the big tests ahead. Chelsea in the next round is a huge incentive and the Dons game is live on ITV 4.

I thought we looked much more comfortable playing 442 its what we should have kept with all season our missed chances reflected the lack of confidence and we missed Faurlin, however the commitment was there Mackie and Bothroyd were excellent and Bothroyd who I didnt want back in the team, actually looked a player and I think that the discipline that Mark Hughes will bring and him having been a top top striker will help our forwards start producing SWP just needs that ruthless streak back because he has more chances than anyone and just strokes the ball instead of banging it and hopefully Hughes will rekindle things for him. We did enough to win and we are not that far away, everyone is going crazy over Swansea but we should have beaten them at the Liberty and we are not that far away and to all the cynics and critcs of TF and MH that I have seen written in the last couple of articles here, just get behind them both I am really excited about Mark Hughes being here, yes I loved Neil Warnock like everybody else but in a way I am glad he went when he did because I would have hated for the crowd to turn on him and there were signs that some were.

Good enough start as you might expect under a new Manager & looked more compact in the 4-4-2. All seemed to change after the Cabaye foul & always difficult to come back after going a goal behind. Better defending but still not enough of a goal threat & creativity going forward.

Apparently MH only won 2 of his first 18 games at Fulham....gulp!

Players looked lacking in confidence. Buz and Macheda did ok. Attacking we lacked composure SWP should have done better. At the back and midfield weak , missed AF AT and JB. Signings needed asap having said that great we got a result and kept a clean sheet for first time in months..
