Howya Este mate. I've been in the SS many times over the years, but I like the Kop end. Now my 2nd youngest loves the SS. Anyway that's where we are going to go for our first 2 games. Sweetc is apparently getting a season ticket down there as well. Are you on the sauce ? I got 12 bass tonight, have the place to myself and if I run out my young lad forgot to take the 3 cans he has under his bed..........
Am I on the sauce,erm my new workmate owns the bar down the road, I serve myself,the fridge is stacked,so yes You in contact with sweet?
I guess so,he does the work,I make sur we get paid, TBH never met a bloke who can,brickie,carpentery,weld etc etc he's 57 works like a dog and owns a bar. My new partner,fella can't even read or write tho.
But would buying back the ground still win over the fans ABOVE any ensuing relegation dogfight? I would say that the fact Cellino has 'linked' the £11million received for Ross McCormack to the repurchase of Elland Road was perhaps one of his shrewdest moves so far - but will the fans at that juncture point to the fact that he had already promised to buy back the ground BEFORE any possibility of a McCormack transfer had even surfaced? For me personally, I think that although Cellino is and always will be some kind of maverick, by any standards, his rather strange 'actions' so far are linked to serious - and probably VERY complex - underlying problems, of which the 'status' of ownership of our Elland Road stadium is just one of the more pertinent ones. I've spent the past 6 months away from posting anything on Leeds Forums; my conclusion is the same - this saga turned into a one-way 'tunnel' which started a long time ago and which Ken Bates 'blocked' off behind us a long time ago; it seems clear that he wilfully spun a complex financial 'web' designed to cripple the club and also designed to keep it within his control, possibly even after his exit. In short, the further we travel away from the Ken Bates era, the less odious the smell of his 'mark' left on the club will become. Buying back the Elland Road stadium may be just the first major dose of medicine that starts the process of dragging the club away from it's captor of 'debt and financial haemorrhaging'. I was completely flummoxed by the extreme (and more pertinently, the public) nature of the Cellino cutbacks, but somehow, it seems like it was designed to 'set the tone' for what had become a necessity; basically, those who couldn't stomach it were free to move on. That has left us 'Rossless', with numerous youngsters, a couple of Italians, and the possibility of one or two of our 'villains' such as Morison and Hunt ending up as heroes this coming season. When Hunt gets a first half hat-trick, then of course you raise an eyebrow, but then again, this a also Leeds United. We await with bated breath. Well come on guys, at least it's something new - none of us could have predicted any of this!
That's the problem with an ageing fan base. Some of us might be 50 on the outside but we try to stay 18 n the inside. I can see it now. All tartan rugs and Bovril at half time. Shuffling on together!
