Fowler
Robbie fires a blank
Former Liverpool striker Robbie Fowler came under fire from certain quarters yesterday after failing to capitalise on several chances for Leeds United who could only draw 0-0 at home against Charlton.

Leeds were desperate for a win to keep their title hopes alive but with all their strikers only firing blanks, any chances they had are certainly looking slim as they drop further down the Premiership.

"If we had taken half the chances we created we would have won by two or three," said Leeds boss David O'Dreary. "I thought Robbie could have knocked one of those in with his eyes shut, but it wasn't to be."

'...it was the former Liverpool favourite who finished the most frustrated of Leeds's non-firing strikers...' - Telegraph.
