1. The support was very good, although there were some down periods.
2. I thought it was a nice touch that the Northam End sung Gavin Bazunu's name and showed that they are behind our players
3. 2nd biggest crowd of the season, hopefully the Rotherham game will be up in the 28k plus region
4. Leeds fans were quite subdued I thought
5. The team showed that they can adapt to the opposition, we are getting there

Really disappointing to see so many of our own fans streaming out before the end. It's annoying enough when we're losing, but just for once we were actually winning, and it wasn't as though they were likely to miss their last bus home when the game kicked off two and a half hours earlier than usual. Odd behaviour.
Even stranger, however, in our stand were the father and son who were wearing Arsenal shirts. Were they intending to go to Dean Court but got off the train too early? |  | | |

Watched it on Sky and maybe it’s St Mary’s but it sounded very quiet , bar the odd bit when we scored |  |

Don Goodman referred to our fans as “silent” at one point….
Lunchtime kick-offs rarely help TBF.
Leeds fans appear to have made more noise in the concourse than during the game. Odd bunch. |  |

If the 2 you were referring to were in the family stand, they were actually a father and 2 sons.
I overheard a guy say to them that they were in the wrong stadium and the guy replied that his youngest was a (shirt wearing) Saints fan despite him and his eldest supporting Arsenal.
Strange decision to wear Arsenal shirts all the same, more so than the occasional Barca, Real and Italian shirts you sometimes see at our games. |  |

Yes I think that was the family. I was also struck by how many people rocked up way after the kick-off, spent 5 minutes trying to find their seats (completely oblivious to what was going on on the pitch behind them), went out early at half time and then left well before the end. | | | |

5. The team showed that they can adapt to the opposition, we are getting there
I was unable to make the game so can't comment on the other points.
The above though raises an issue with me.
We are meant to be closer to a PL outfit than perhaps 20 of the teams in this league. We were playing at home. Leeds have had an average start to the season and have lost many of their PL players - arguably more than we have in terms of quality.
Why do we need to "adapt to the opposition?"
Surely they should be adapting to us?
I suspect that they expected us to come out with the possession/passing game and were surprised that a more direct approach was adopted. By the time they worked this out and their manager made changes at half time, the game was lost. |  | | |

Did the Leeds fans sing something that the Northam retorted with the 'Jimmy Savile, he's one of your own'... which seemed to shut them up fairly sharpish. | | | |

It was sung at them, but they sing it themselves. They also sing the same about Peter Sutcliffe |  | | |
