Grayson delighted with spirit and determination

Despite once again giving the opposition a start in the game, Leeds boss Simon Grayson was delighted with the spirit and determination showed by his side to come from two goals down to claim a point at Hull City.

Speaking on Yorkshire Radio, Grayson said, "We showed a lot of spirit by getting back into the game after going 2-0 down. The free kick by Snodgrass right on half time gave us a big lift.
"Delighted with the determination and the spirit that we showed again tonight, you can`t fault the players for that, the work rate and the attitude to games and a desire not to get beat."

In a fairly even first half hour, Hull scored twice in the space of seven minutes to leave Leeds on the back foot.

Robert Snodgrass scored direct from a free kick a minute before half time and Davide Somma equalised early in the second half to claim a point for Leeds.

Leeds have now lost just one of their last sixteen games but have drawn five of their last seven Championship games.

Come in Sinmon, take the blinkers off. Why dont we start playing until we are two down. Get your tactics sorted out.

Same old guff from Grayson, I think its about time he said, the defending was shocking again. We have to show spirit and determination because we are always chasing the game away from home.

Time to stop making excuses and coming out with the same lines everytime we are poor at the back.
