    I was just going to say. Who would you rather have, Radz / Orta or Ridsdale? Spending beyond our means is the direct reason for where we are today.

    Very nice comment that full of sound reasoning and knowledge. So age is a thing with you is it eric. Well i am 65 in june so add me to your list.
    We are getting back to being personal again and the reason some posters left. This is a forum for all and no matter what anyones thoughts are try and keep it civil. If this cannot be adheared to then its open season.
    Tomorrow evening i shall be stood freezing my nadgers off cheering on the lads. Feck Naaarich and all the rest of the letter writers no friendly welcome from me.

    We all have opinions and that's how it should be. Henry Winter is a reasonable journalist who doesn't do red top headlines. He has today said that Swansea' American owners should hang their heads in shame. The EFL should investigate as yesterday Swansea brought the game into disrepute. Daniel James and Leeds Utd have a right to be upset this morning.. ..... so I am not blaming the club for this and once some of us calm down I think some perspective will come back

    When there is a margin of doubt I'm on the side of Leeds, my lens on life as a supporter. I'm not stupid and nor are the other Leeds supporters it's just I don't need my faith and hope in the club kicked out from beneath us by our own?

    The thing is like us Swansea have done nothing legally wrong. Winter is just trying to stir the pot hoping it will grow legs.

    Beyond our means is the key phrase you ignored. Lots of clubs make bad signings.

    If we have no money after the crowds we have been getting then we are truly up to the hilt revenue wise.

    We took a punt on Bielsa and so far, so good! Not coming up with the funds to strengthen the team in our current position is also a gamble IMO. Gamble too much and your luck soon runs out. Have to be honest and say that I would have reservations about how we would conduct business in the PL based on my opinion that for a supposedly successful businessman, Radz doesn't seem to be very pro-active and more reactive and the fact that Orta helped Borough get relegated pretty much straight away under the free spending Gibson.

    The positive is that I still think we will go up and at least get to see how it all unravels. I think all these players coming back from injury will be a blessing in disguise and prevent the usual burnout from Bielsa teams. Time to buckle our seatbelts because the next 6 months or so will be interesting times for Leeds supporters.

    Even if we played at home every week the income would not cover the wages alone.

    Nothing legally wrong but contrary to the EFL code of conduct ?

    Fine by me. I know you are in a happy clappy mood at the moment as Hudds are nailed on to go down at the end of the season.

    No just business hes their player. They signed nothing and we thought we had them. Done up like a kipper and used to up the fees on the other players they got rid of. Unlike us who actually gave away Saiz for nothing and could well get him back end of season. He is needed now at Leeds and cannot make the side in spain. Yes we truly have a great business man in charge.
