    Yes I will take stick for not getting behind the team and the manager, but frankly I don't give a toss.

    PH was appointed on the 6th February when we were in 10th position and 4 points off the top 6 place. Its now 17th March and we are in 14th place 12 points of top 6. The whole idea of changing managers is to stop the rot, steady the ship and get some heart back into the club. So far only Chris Coleman and Alan Pardew are as shyte. All 3 managers brought in to save the season and all failed badly.

    Looking for crumbs but besides being forced into using BPF and Tom Pearce I cant see any. He still uses O'Kane who has swapped himself for his useless brother, he still thinks Anita is a full back, he still thinks Phillips will come good, he still has no idea how to use Lassoga and tries with Ekuban who I'm afraid will never score for Leeds. Today in the first half (For a change) we were dominant but needed a striker but we only had Ekuban as the striker was on the bench. Glad he brought Grot back who has deserved another go since scoring regular in the U23s, and sure enough he came on and scored a few minutes later.

    Please can someone tell me that in PH we have a gem and explain how you can come to that position. Got to question Radz decision in bringing PH into the club and paying Barnsley £500,000 too. Think his results are the worst from any Leeds manager in modern times. But for Radz to slag the players off when its now becoming obvious the players cannot play for Heckingbottom?

    Hi Doc
    Your last paragraph says it all, only one man to blame at this stage, a Italian who admits he knows FA about football going by the name of Radrizzani. He's just playing with our team

    For me this demonstrates his lack of awareness, knowledge, tactics......

    You could take this view and feel good about it until next season, but logic says why can a team be top of the league and play free flowing fast football making the opposition look silly, fall to this level with the same players. Since Tommy was let go we have seen the form of Phillips, O'Kane, Viera, LDB, Anita, Pennington, Cooper, Beradi, Felix, Dallas and Roofe fall off a cliff. Yet PH thought Sacko was a good option .....

    This is another view many fans have and they could be right?

    TBH I think we were going for the Wagner effect with TC however Wagner worked under one of the best coaches in the world.

    Orta shouldn't have played fantasy football to a bunch of nobodies across Europe. We should have never had got rid of Wood just to bring in the fat German. These players are no good.

    On to PH this was a job to big for him. It was a stupid appointment especially his win ratio at Barnsley.

    Radz should have never pissed off Monk and let him bring his own players in. He would have brought in a lot better player. Granted we probably wouldn't have been top 2 but we would have been in the Top six looking at the Play Offs

    I didn't care about Monk going but... We were probably only three players short of pushing on, this appointment of PH is down to Orta...

    Here we have a coach who admits to not liking the idea of scouting, contracts and everything manager related, he just wants to coach the players, an ideal scenario for Orta and no need to discuss targets and positions. Remember Rads wanted to get shot of TC earlier but Orta talked him out of it, afraid a decent coach might come in and tell Rads what a crock of **** some of these signings actually are?

    PH said we have easier games coming up, that is going to sting his arse

    Fulham have picked up 4 times as many pts as Leeds (33) in 2018 (8)

    Millwall have picked up 3 times as many pts (28) as Leeds in 2018

    Only Sunderland have earned fewer Champ pts than Leeds in 2018 (6)

    Only Sunderland have leaked more Champ goals in 2018 (26) than Leeds (25)

    Simon Kiaser has just said that PH has won 6 points from a possible 76. I suppose factoring Barnsley into things, wow thats scary
