......but from all accounts you were lucky to grab all 3 against Leyton O.
You lost last week and you won with a mediocre performance today. I wonder how many of these lucky streaks you will get in the next 40 games???
You are looking like playoff contenders at best.
Leeds on the other hand are now playing fantastic football. We dominated and played much better football than Carlisle today, a team that is currently still where you are so Im very convinced Leeds do not have real competition out there this season.
Read what the Carlisle boss had to say.
" I think that the better side won and I think that we were that little bit behind in passing and keeping the ball. Then the final part of the game, the clinical stuff, they have put two goals in the back of our net and we haven't. The early clinical play from ourselves in the first five or six games has deserted us a wee bit in the last two games. So I have got no real grumbles about the result, I think that the better team has won the game today.
" The game was relatively tight and close but we are pushing on obviously at the end when the second one has come, but it is a real quality break and goal for them. You have got to put your hands up sometimes and say that but overall I think that in the game they kept the ball that little bit better than us.
" We crowded around it and we shaped ourselves up, but when we did get forward a couple of our corners and free-kicks weren't quite as good as we wanted. When we did get them right we weren't attacking the ball well enough. So we don't really deserve 2-0 I think but I have got to take that because that is what happened, but they were slightly better than us and we have got to take it.
" I can't go in that dressing-room and have a shout at anybody or anything. Everybody has tried very, very hard, we want to be a bit better of course we do in terms of the quality that we have got. I think that a good number of guys in the Paddock stayed behind to applaud the team off at the end even in defeat. It shows that they are backing this team and the team are backing them, but we have not been up to Leeds United's standards today. We have got to say that and accept it and work hard to be a bit better. "
" These are future champions aren't they, everyone is looking at that, and I think that they are a better team than they were last year. With people like (Fabian) Delph and (Luciano) Becchio that give them extra invention I think and composure with the ball. So they have got a real good crop coming through, we have had a good bench today but when you look at their bench as well they are good players.
" I think that there have been two good teams here and they are absolutely delighted to get the win because they know that it has been a tough fixture. We are a wee bit behind them though and we have got to keep working hard to try to achieve that level if you like at our league.

If you can't beat Leyton Orient with a convincing display rather than with luck then you are no match for the best in this division.
Luck will always run out in the end.!!!!!
As John Ward said. Leeds are a BETTER TEAM THAN LAST YEAR
