    1. poor start to season and not prepared in close season ( thats why we need to get started now )
    2. no players of quality brought in for january transfer.
    3. players could not take the pressure when it mattered.
    4. 6 points won in the last 8 games , so 6 points out of possible 24 points .

    whats your thoughts on what needs to be done now for leeds to be promoted next season ?

    Agree with all of above. Manager needs appointing now. Highest calibrate players possible to be brought in. Forget cheap options. We need to be aiming to win the championship

    I think you have missed your chance tbh.
    Next season will be far tougher than this one.
    With bigger Yorkshire teams set to grace the Championship (Boro, Sheff U and maybe Hull) you won't even be in the top 5 of Yorkshire.
    At least you might get to give us the usual 4 points <cheers>

    Agree with the list but would add how can we make sure all the players brought in can cope.

    Grimes & Barrow Under 21 internationals with huge reputations for the future who bombed.

    We have quite a good record against the 2nd string Yorkshire teams

    Beat Leeds
    Beat Huddersfield
    Beat Bradford last year

    ;)

    We finished 7th.

    Finish in the top 2 or win the play-offs.

    <sorry>

    Shots on goal. Finishing 7th was extremely lucky tbh - based on stats

    What do we need to do next season? Better supply. Chris Woods can't be expected to provide that return again unless the supply gets better and more plentiful.
