Newport by far the better team here, Leeds can't get going on this pitch and look very half-assed.

Fair to say we could see that coming a mile off. Same as last year.

LOL at us fucking up in the league and cup at the same time with our best player now banned.

Leeds, Leeds are falling apart ... again.
Yeah, even though it's hardly an upset. Good L2 team at home beats Championship reserves. The odds on Newport weren't even good.

Don't care about the cup but sadly just shows our reserves are not capable of challenging our first team which is poor going into the second half of the season.

I don’t think Berardi, Cooper, Phillips, Saiz & Lasogga are considered ‘reserve’ players, are they?

9 of the 13 who played at Newport have reached double figures in League appearances.

Cooper and Saiz played for very little time. Lasogga has been out of the side for ages.

Not saying they shouldn't have done better but yes, it was a completely changed side. I'd say most Championship sides making 10 changes would struggle to run away with an away win at a decent lower league side.

Just not sure it really contributes to Leeds 'falling apart again'. Blimey if we're falling apart in the play offs then we're in halcyon days [emoji38]

Some people on Twitter are saying he spat at someone.

Was accused of spitting against Vale in the League cup but no evidence on video... seems to have an issue with it!

Disappointed to be out. A cup run would have been a welcome distraction from the league right now.

We've been over it before but personally I can't understand why any football fan would be glad to be out of the FA cup regardless of league position. Maybe it's an unfortunate consequence of the money orientated state of modern football.

I agree. There's been a lot of discussion online about the "magic of the cup" going. We pulled in 28,000 last Tuesday for a home game against Brentford, but only 22,000 for the FA Cup match against PL opposition Saturday afternoon.

I love the Cup and I'm always disappointed when we go out. And it always is "when".

Not saying it didn't happen today but the Vale claims were proven false...at least what Brown said anyway. Video shows no altercation between the two players at all within ten mins of Brown's report.

But yeah, fucking stupid and even worse when he's your best player. I know how Liverpool fans felt now with Suarez (minus the t shirt)

Birmingham hadn't won since the fall of the Soviet union before beating us.

Ben Brereton looks like the best player on the pitch against Arsenal.

Mehhh I'm not sure really. I get it but I think six is plenty. Not nice but I don't think it's comparable to racism, biting etc. and much worse than leg breakers.

Just stupid, horrible and has a huge impact on our season. He's an emotional player which is no excuse but we do get benefits from that attitude at other times too.

What did he do? Watching a stream on my laptop I just saw Saiz doing some kick ups on the half way line, some Newport player ran to the ref holding his shirt and then he was sent off. People have mentioned spitting or something with blood?
