We're already on top of Millwall

I can feel a wager coming on.
£1 a week that at 08.00 on Monday mornings from after the 1st game is played that Leeds are lower in the table than 10thagainst £1 a week that Leeds will be 10th or higher.
In short I am convinced that we will not be higher than 10th for most if not all weeks of the campaign,

If you were him, and had no ties to either club, who would you sign for?

We've shown no signs of ambition since getting Biesla in. We needed to make a statement and get a couple of quality players in after his arrival but we have now waited and ships are sailing. Players are going to look at us vs our rivals and think they have a better chance with them, persuading a top quality player to come to this club will be getting harder by the day.

Was thinking exactly the same myself, the amount we’ve already shipped out already and we’re still scared to compete with the going rate for half decent player wages

 

[ristac]

What would be the fallout if Bielsa walked out on us next week and said your owners are liars and they failed to back me in the transfer market despite promises before I joined?

Would gates go through the floor, would we see protests, would the bad publicity force Rads to find a new buyer?

If the choice is the current squad going through another season with no decent additions or Bielsa walking and forcing something to happen I’m edging towards wanting Bielsa to stick two fingers up.

I only know one person that would take the bet but I can't help you with contacting him.

Too late you boarded HMS Happyclappy and sailed away...
The fallout would be not being able to move for people saying sorry GWR.

I'm assuming Bielsa is doing the intelligent thing and finding out what we need before signing someone we don't need.

Morning Mike. I never met Charlie but I always got the impression he was a decent bloke. I once heard him say he couldn't play football but he stopped a lot that thought they could.

He was me old flower!

 

[leeds60]

Another bites the dust he has decided to go to Derby I wonder why CASH CASH CASH

OK guys - bet of the coming season - what d'ya think? Cardiff to finish higher in their division than Leeds do in theirs.

Cardiff can't be lower than 20th so it's a no brainer.

Trouble is we don't know what the agreement was between Radz and Bielsa.
It may all be going according to their agreed plan for all we know.
Radz and his crew should sell up and FU--OFF if he is not going to support the club.
Why do LU ALWAYS attract such **** owners.

You need a good shake, Cardif are not going to finish top of the league

They’ve slowly got better

Just had a good shake - but no matter how hard you shake, the last drop always ends up in your underpants.

Who are they

 

[Chippy / Glory]

They’ve slowly got better

I wouldn’t put a penny on that.

So it's the fault of Radz that we've not signed anyone? I thought he simply provided the budget.

Isn't it Orta's job to use that budget to sign players, once a target has been agreed with Bielsa? I believe so.

I'm guessing on the basis of their salaried position within the club, and what from I've read from trusted newsmen / club announcements. A lot of people are making huge assumptions and laying blame without necessarily knowing what they're talking about.

Personally, I support Leeds no matter who we sign. I might not like it, but it's my club & it's my job to support them. And I love my job. I am actually heartened that we've not signed a dozen journeymen in the hope that one or two might be half decent, as we have in the past. Bielsa seems to know what he wants & is happy to work with what he's got if we can't land his targets. Would people really hope we sign players just for the sake of it? I'll go with Bielsa. He knows a damn sight more about players and what he's looking for than anyone on here, any other social media outlet, or any of the Newsnow rumour merchants.

Just sipping a cocktail on board HMS Happy Clappy and enjoying the view of the angry and frustrated. Will be happily staying on board until the actual window closes on 9 August/manager leaves. As neither of those are currently happening will just keep sipping my cocktail and enjoying the view.

The nett result is this squad isn’t good enough. You know it, I know it and unless he is completely **** Belgrano knows it.
It doesn’t matter why we haven’t showed any ambition to improve the only concern is we haven’t.
Ultimately it’s down to the owner
