    It's a bloody circus at ER these days. Since the days of Peter Ridsdale, the club has been run incredibly badly and has gone from bad to very much worse.

    Ditto Newcastle and one or two others. We do have a lot to be grateful for.

    Yes, but you have to remember this is Norwich you are talking about and even if Delia had won the euro-millions and had £100 million to spend on the club people would have to find something to moan about!

    I just find it hard to feel sorry for Leeds.

    I think I can just about muster up a moment of sorrow though.

    I can't. Ever since the Ridsdale / Bates days, they've been a train wreck waiting to happen.
    QPRcelona are very similar and, disappointingly, Hull 'Tigers' <laugh> <ok> and Cardiff are both threatening to go down the same route.
    Name change? Kit colour change?? WTF! <yikes>

    We should get Redfearn here in the same role.

    As for Leeds, I hope they go under.

    That's all very well Carrabuh, but who would take on the task of being our 'Feeder Club' :biggrin:

    Have never had any liking for them. Living in the past. Are there any other teams doing that?

    Credit where it's due - both Leeds and that other club were massive and successful in their time.
    But to continually hark back to it almost half a century later <yikes> smacks of pure desperation.

    They went bust as Leeds City so they had previous and Ridsale nearly repeated it. Glory chasing maniac.

    The problem Leeds United have is that they are Yorkies,
    and we all know what high opinions Yorkies have of
    themselves.(Parky,Boycott,Trueman,Close etc etc)

    The list is endless, it is in the genes up there. Prescott is another classic example.
