    Just want to say well done on your excellent start to the season, It shows what a shower of ****e we have up at the KC. Both clubs having new managers ( both new to the English game), but your gaffer being backed by the board and he has bought well over the summer, ours working for a selfish money making regime who dont give 2 ****s about the club, buying half of Chelseas youth squad and a few cast offs whi were not needed for a reason ( theyre ****e). Hopefully we can still turn it round but are unlikely to be troubling yourselves or the like at the buisness end of the table. Good luck for the rest of the season.

    Thanks

    Not been following what's happening there but over the last 15-20 years we have had extensive exposure to ownership of unmatchable quality, so we sort of deserve this for a change

    TBH a draw would be a good result for us at the moment. Hopefully Larsson will be up for it against his former club.

    Thank you but.... We've suffered a dozen years of ****y **** owners, our new guy has spent wisely rather than vast amounts. Our previous one Cellino probably meant well, he was just too set in his ways to realise his methods and ways to run a Championship club are vastly different to how it can be done in SerieB

    True, unfortunately our owners are buisnessmen first and foremost and seen as they cant sell us for what they want (130 million) then they will ceam off the money and leave us with the spare change.50 million in sales plus the parachute money, all our big earners practically gone and only 20 million spent to replace them, and spent on poor players

    Spot on Ristac. The more I see of the Rads work, be it decorating the stadium, opening legend lounge, fanzine, appointing scouts around the world, I have to keep pinching myself to make sure he’s Leeds owner. I just don’t get it, we don’t get quality owners. I’m still expecting to wake up and find Bates is in charge, and we’re playing in front of 10k at home in League 2 with Steve Morisson as player manager

    Spot on Eire
    Woke up with a start when I read your last sentence.
    Rad's I believe is a doing good business without spending masses amount of money.
    Leeds give him a fantastic shop window. That I believe is why players are getting good length contracts.
    Bates is now just a hollow bitter and twisted toothless has been.

    20 million in this division if, as you say, spent wisely is a lot of money and should get you challenging. This is what I think Radz and Orta appear to have done with good scouting abroad. We hope it continues

    About 250 miles and only one set left Yorkshire and ended up begging to come back in thirty years later.
