LUFC Grayson - It's all about the result

Leeds got off the mark on the opening day of the season but left it until the 88th minute to take all three points.

Once again it was that man Jermaine Beckford who scored both goals in the 2-1 victory.

The Whites dominated the first half and Beckford on another day could have been walking off at half time with the ball tucked under his arm after having a hatful of chances.

When Exeter had Barry Corr sent off around the hour, Leeds fans thought it was game over but Alex Russell brought the Grecians back level with a wonderfully taken free kick.

Leeds fans are accustomed to the team never doing anything easy were probably thinking 'here we go again!` but with time running out Beckford rose to head Leeds winner.

Simon Grayson isn`t so worried though, speaking on the official website he said "Its all about the result. If we play poorly every week and win, I`ll take it, but there will be times when we play well and don`t get what we deserve".

I can agree to a certain degree, I think another 45 games with a last minute winner though could have the hospital`s around the Leeds area seeing a few more cardiac arrest patients.

It was funny yesterday but I was thinking near to the end about two seasons ago when we made a habit off late winners. I really fancied us to get one.Teams that normally do well have that bit of luck and mentality to go to the end.

I am sure he will have noted how we went missing for 45 minutes either side of half time and he will want that sorted. If we play like we did for the first 30 mins we will be fine. If we play like we did for the second 30 mins we are in trouble. He wilol take the result but not the performance. I notice he had them in training today !!!

There's plenty to build and also you have to take into account it's the 1st game of the season. There were players out there who know they can play alot better and will play alot better. Onwards and upwards..............
