    For what it’s worth imo it’s too late for a plan b we are stuck with Bielsa ball as it’s ingrained in the players mentality change now and we will get swamped
    As we have been saying for months we just need someone to stick the ball in the back of the net
    Whilst ever we are in number 2 spot I have hope playoff places not for me because we will f***it up

    The only thing that keeps me sane is knowing that only once in 30 years have we been worse than you, but even that, you expect to be a **** no fans club, so nothing lost.
    It's the hope that kills, but as you never have any hope it doesn't bother you.

    Agreed and I saw a daft one today. The powers that be are considering banning the heading of the ball in underage football. For **** sake, what’s next. Players wearing dresses maybe

    For the record I don't want a change of manager, I want our manager to see some things aren't working well enough at the moment and change them, one being the clown between the sticks, and if he only likes one up front give JK a few games, if he can at least hit the ****ing target, that would be an improvement, I've said it before Bamford works hard for the team but a striker he aint, maybe a no10...…….. oh and more shooting practice for all the team, especially outside the box

    Qsi is never ever going to happen if it was it would have happened by now. It's just another carrot being dangled by radrizanni to keep the ground full. Why buy from Aldi when you want wait rose products.

    Here’s a worrying stat from today. We had our first shot on target after 80 minutes. That won’t win many games. We had 66% possession at one stage so that shows how much of it was meaningless stuff

    Nick, I agree with all of this, it’s no longer the game we played and grew up with.

    Sadly, it’s only the sanitised and bloodless remnant we have left, so we bear it or forget it altogether.

    Bielsa’s not perfect, but he’s enabled us to compete again at least. <ok>

    It's ****ing frustrating mate. If we'd kept BPF we'd have probably gone up last season :headbang:

    Too right Forza, they like stats on here, so here's one for them, BPF had a better record in goal than the clown
    Btw is he still at Burnley?

    Before Radz how many times can you count us spending more than £1m on a player in the last 15 years? This season he has ploughed £6m into two loan strikers alone. First one started two games, second one arrives unfit.

    I’m not saying Radz is perfect but I’d have told Orta to do one by now, commitment to buy for Costa and Augustin, big wages keeping the players the coach asked him to keep, I think it’s a bit unfair hammering him too much. He joined as a businessman not a supporter and we knew that on day one

    True Davy I'm afraid I'm going for the forget it. For a city the size of Leeds it's criminal we haven't got a premiership team but for whatever reason there are more people determined to prevent it than promote it. For me it's time to hand it over to the next generation. Hope I'm wrong but after this collapse can't see us back up for at least the next 5 years

    If they are we have no chance, if not then the amount Bielsa and the entourage are costing I’d imagine it would be a breeze

    Shame really, I thought he would have maybe turned into a top 'keeper. he may still do, I think he took a backward step joining Burnley to be 3rd choice even though they are a prem team, should have stayed with us but feel he was treated badly

    Before you vanish into the ether bud, come down for a pint next time we have a meet up, don’t know if any of the other lads have had the privilege but I’d like to shake your hand. <cheers>

    Snodgrass, Howson, Becchio, Byram, Beckford, Wood, Gradel, Cook, Mowatt, Ross and a ton of others, sold and the money was? Pocketed? Question was how many owners in the last 15 years have spent more than £1m on players
