    Not only that but we sold our best players as well. Last time we sold Buendia to Villa for £35m and did not even spend that amount on replacements. We were only there for the money as are most Championship sides. You stand a chance of staying up - we never did, or will,
    if we get there again.

    It
    It's so sad to see norwich going. through the doldrums, at one point this season I thought they were going to finish in the play offs , I don't think your that far off the play offs , you just need an inspirational manager and about 3 very good players , I got a mate who's a norwich fan also , he says he's not bothered about norwich going up as he likes em playing in championship with more games they can win and more matches in a season , he says as long as norwich beat ipswich he will be happy.
    Leeds fans and team are that we are not a team that can go up and survive in bottom half of premier league we think Leeds should be a top 4 team and winning tropheys

    It’s so sad to see the current state of the football tiers. I’ve watched most of playoffs and they were dire. Whoever is promoted to the circus wouldn’t survive from that lot if they spent 250m. I watched in hope of spotting someone we could try buying, but no luck. Gap way too wide for anyone getting promoted a I suspect 49ers will soon realise that

    Got to be honest, that was a fantastic season for us, excitement, goals, loads of wins so like Eire, I have a real soft spot for the championship. More games, most of which are on Sky (will be relying on Ell TV next time). Now, no more celebrating a goal as VAR tries to find any excuse to rule it out and ruin the moment. Just hope we can recruit well so that we don’t suffer the same fate as Leicester, Southampton and Ipswich.

    If there’s one thing all fans should have realised from this season is there is nothing like the feeling of winning. Unfortunately if you do it too often you get thrown out of the championship like us

    The difference between Leeds utd and Leicester , Ipswich and southampton is Leeds have got backers and money , also red bull have billions even more money than 49ers and they only have 10% at moment .
    Look forward to a new day in the premiership where Leeds can win the big tropheys and put our club name at the top again.
    Look forward to European nights and trips to the top teams grounds in Europe, NOT trips to Preston or stoke .
    Leeds can have more matches these will be matches in Europe, FA cups , League cups and more trips to wembley and to also rub the noses in the dirt of all those clubs that cheated their way to the premier league , like villa who we had to stand by and let them score just to say we did fair play when it was villa players that were cheating by claiming we had to stop play when their player feigned injury and the referee said play on and did not blow the whistle but villa wanted us to stop play and we carried on and scored , then on the restart had to stand there and let villa score the cheats villa are, everton who tried to poach our players such as gnonto and Harrison who they eventually got and the cheating they did and got away with financial fair play and Leicester cheating with financial fair play we ended up going down relegated because of those teams cheating , and a well deserved thrashing of man utd and tottenham this time will go down well , with all the cheating they have done in the past , it's the best time to play them now and rub their noses in the dirt.
    Yes I'm relishing that !!!
    And also the biggest cheat in a match of all time the European cup final of 1975 when Leeds were cheated by the referee taking bribes from sources of bayern Munich we have to avenge this and put the record straight by winning the champions league it might be some seasons off but it will come as we celebrate and take our rightful place as Champions of Europe (again) after been cheated out of it , yes Leeds utd have got alot of records to put straight.
    So let's get behind the lads and push them onto greater heights with VAR and against the FA wishes its Leeds united against the world as usual!!!

    Fear not mate , Leeds did excellent buys in the summer and we can do it again this summer Mac attear looks good , also good clear out of the wood will do to raise extra cash we might even get archie back at a discounted price and playing alongside his brother Harry gray will be like old times with Eddie Gray and Frankie gray then there is AO TANAKA what a star he is going to be he reminds me of a Brian Flynn or Johnny giles type of player and once Leeds united cement their place back in premier league don't be surprised if erling Harland joins , we only need to get a player at Leeds that is wanting to swap with man city and pay some extra and we could get Haaland not this season but sometime in the next few seasons in the premier league.

    Haaland's £750k per week wages shouldn't be a problem for us.

    On the PL, I think the big advantage we have is the Red Bull scouting network and the number of clubs they have invested in. Hopefully we'll have feeder clubs and a chance for lots of loan players.

    I've been a Leeds fan for 55 years now and tbh, didn't care about MU when we played them, don't now.
    Anyways, what are you doing being up at the times you're posting?

    Not wishing to be controversial but I don’t consider any club that bends or ignores the FFP/PSR rules as cheats. They were invented by the “big six” to maintain their dominance over the other clubs and monopoly over the big money. They don’t want us or a Newcastle breaking in.

    There are mitigating reasons for Farke's previous failures in the Premiership

    I see one name being touted is José Mourinho - what possible mitigating circumstances were there that saw him sacked from Chelsea (twice) and Man Utd ?

    Who do you call the big 6 ? The clubs I mentioned everton and villa and leicester are certainly not in the big 6 as I look at it , liverpool , man city , man utd , Chelsea, arsenal , tottenham. ?
    man utd are 16th and tottenham are 17th , man city are just 6th , aston villa are not a big club its just this season and thecpast 2 seasons they have spent wisely and bought good players but they still cheated in that game and Leeds had every right to carry on and score like we did , but villa played on the system of head injury ( which it wasn't) as the ref did not blow the whistle , so they cheated thinking the ref would stop the game as their player went down feigning injury and jumped up after he knew he would not get a free kick , our defender at the time I forget his name did not agree with bielsas decision to let villa score on the restart after we scored as it looked like leeds were at fault when it wasn't it was villa cheating the ref.
    And up till 2 seasons ago villa was tinkering on the verge of relegation so even though they are 5th at moment they are not top 6 .
    Everton have cheated lots of times and got away with it , and I still think they are tinkering in leeds as Angus Kinnear is going there and I'm sure he was involved in giving them information about contracts of jack Harrison and gnonto as everton tried to prise them both away only getting Harrison in the end , everton did everything in the book to avoid relegation and they should of gone down that season as leeds players underperformed due to what they were doing when we played them losing 1-0 Harrison did not show up and neither did gnonto , and it's well noted about leicester cheating in the fair play Financial rules and now they are getting their just rewards by being relegated.
