So let me get this right.. with probably the most important game in the clubs recent history on the horizon and with a chance to rally the support our illustrious manager decides to put the assistant up for questions ... that is the epitome of fkn spineless and only adds to what we already know .. bottleless twat
Colins won three out of 6 hasnt he? anyone who thinks Adkins wouldn’t have done the same for us is mental
I think it boils down to the fact that in February Ehab judged that binning McCann would have cost him double manager wages for five months, and his penny pinching ways simply won’t countenance that (we had PL money when he binned Slutsky and Phelan). He stuck instead of twisting to save a few grand. And in typical Ehab style, that’ll cost him a few hundred grand or more.
I actually think The manager may be on the brink of the sack or a breakdown giving this no show. Obviously I wouldn’t wish him the latter. His managerial skills have been terrible. No excuses for the high speed downfall we are on re the team. Having the atmosphere around the club due to questionable ideas by the owners does not help one bit however at the end of the day these are still well paid footballers who the other day played like a pub team without the passion of a pub team
I hope no Leeds fans are tempted to come on this board with false offers of sympathy while privately peeing themselves. That would be crass and enormously insensitive. Hope you are all coping. Maybe do a protest on Saturday, that’ll change things for sure.
Maybe we could project “Ehab is a ****” onto the back of the west stand? Now where have I seen that before?
To help you out Chazz, here are the professional records of McCann't (do a presser) and Cliff (please jump off the edge) Byrne. They were both lower league only, very little if any experience in the top leagues (Terry's 4 WHU appearances were as sub, he never started). Byrne was a defender, which is somewhat ironic given the defensive displays this season.

It's easy to see why Rodney chose the pair to manage the club with that impressive record. It must be so disappointing not being able to erase that sad history from your CV. Over a 20 year corresponding period I reckon Charles Bronson would have had a much happier time in prison.
Zero realistic chance of it happening, but if we stay up he'll have over-achieved. That said from the position on new years day its a complete and utter **** show we're in this position now and he's as culpable as anyone
