Leeds 1-0 Hereford: Randy so handy but Robbo just the jobbo

Gary McAllister saw Leeds climb to third in League One - despite Hereford keeper Darren Randolph living up to Steve Staunton's star-billing!

Andy Robinson's diving header18 minutes from time sent Hereford crashing to defeat at Elland Road. But keeper Randolph produced a series of top-class saves to frustrate the home side and McAllister said he'd been warned about the youngster by assistant boss Staunton.

McAllister said: "I had a little feeling that the keeper might do well.

"Steve Staunton took him into the Ireland Under 21s and had him as part of the B squad when he was the Republic manager. "He said 'keep an eye on the keeper.' He's one who he rates.

"He made some great saves and then another wonder save just before we scored, but it was nice to see Robbo get it over the line for us."

Hereford have won just once since being promoted last season, but midfielder Stephen O'Leary insists that Graham Turner's men could have snatched the points.

He said: "We knew we would have to soak up pressure, but we suffocated the mat time sand they were getting anxious."
