To be I think there are a few people out there that wouldn't take on a club when you have to put up with the dross that a 'Director of Football' deems worthy to bring in. Look at Keegan and Curbishley who walked out of Newcastle and West Ham because they didn't have a say of incoming and outgoing
That could be true, but the abuse that our supporters dish out on forums and especially Twitter would make me think twice about taking the job on. Just a thought.
How do you know that is bollocks, particularly after warnock made himself look a right dick with his 'this England int it' comment after your player took out Sane? Seems to me he endorses this type of tackle (if not actually encouraging them).
What is likely to happen is that Radz won't know if the signings are **** or our coach isn't good enough to get the best out of them. First way to find out is likely to be a change in coach. If the new man in charge can't change anything then you look at the quality of the players and change DOF or employ a manager.
So you think Warnock told Bennett to go out and cripple Sane - do me a favour. Most defenders like to let attacking players to know they're there fairly early in the game - It's all part of football. In the vernacular "leaving a calling card" is the common footballing phrase and it's commonplace - one or two of your Leeds players in the past were well known for it. If you think Bennett set out to deliberately snap Sane's leg and Warnock told him to then you're a bigger pillock than him. Bennett totally mistimed his tackle on Sane for two reasons and neither was what you're suggesting. Sane is so quick Bennett was late with his intended trip that was meant to bring him down with a professional foul and take a yellow for the team. Secondly, Bennett is left footed and went in with the wrong leg - if he'd used his less dominant right foot he would have slid in in front of Sane's leg rather than into the side if it. It doesn't alter the fact that it was very dangerous and as a result Bennett should have had a straight red not a yellow only to get sent off later for a stupid second bookable offence.
Yes Chesh, I agree, but the suggestion by others on here is that it was deliberate and intended to take him out of the game - that's the rubbish I'm talking about.
Couldn't tell what had happened at the game,but watched it a few times on tv,definitely stoods on the back of Jannsons heal but,don't think he meant to do it,I do think it was a ref mistake that changed the game,but I would think that wouldn't I.
I can tell by the insults that you're not sure about what you said was correct, but by using the 'vernacular' as you call it; and 'leaving a calling card if that is what warnock has said', you are encouraging your players to go in reckless on better players (if that's what warnock did, I don't know and neither do you since neither of us were in the dressing room, however, warnock did make a pathetic excuse to condone it after the game). Oh and when you trip someone it doesn't tend be just below the knee and from side on, but by all means you carry on defending your donkey of player. Don't deny Leeds players in the past have done that, it's why they changed the laws of the game to prevent it. Even the fact you bring up historic Leeds teams shows that even you think your defence of your player is bollocks.
This "your" forum, but don't come on here and slag off my team, player and manager if you don't expect to be answered back. As for the "insults" you say I've made, that's a bit shy of the truth on this forum - getting a bit thin-skined aren't we? I say it as I see it - you can assume all you like but you know **** all about the player concerned and the incident other than the press photos you seen which I admit are horrible. The point you're making is that it was intentional on Bennett's part and Warnock sent him out there to do it - total bollocks.
