    All that matters, season on season. Cellino can be blamed for a lot but not the seasons he wasn't here. First season hardly counted given the amount of firefighting required

    Of course it counted. This was the season he guaranteed us promotion.... Now he is watering down the same promise to getting in the playoffs next year... That won't happen either.

    He underestimated the quality of the division and the **** players he inherited. He has now come to terms with English football and cleared out the crap from the club, including lots of under performing staff and has us heading in the right direction. Don't forget, it took Leicester many seasons of small improvements and many coaches to get where they are today. All about having a little patience

    Eire. Sorry mate that makes no sense at all. So season on season Cellino has us performing worse than we were five years ago but because we've done better than last season we've made progress (though still lower than when he bought the club). Also we had the financial problems back then, also the deadwood journeymen everyone complained and still finished higher :huh:

    Then he should shut the **** up until he does know the division (if you buy into whether he needs to know it at all or whether he should just leave it to the football people he employs to do their jobs).

    Five
    years ago, we had a crop of players that have moved onto the pl. gravel Snoddy Howson Delphi etc. They were sold and replaced with over the hill journeymen. None of that has anything to do with Cellino. He's had the job of rebuilding from scratch and is doing a decent job.

    Of course Bates was never in court and the team never played poorly under him <doh>

    can you explain why we had to play anti football to avoid relegation this season given this rebuilding....
    How many players Cellino brought in are getting shipped out in the close season, why if things are so much better?

    The vast majority of the teams in this division play poor football most of the time. They're mainly poor footballers, that's why they're in this division. It's not ever going to be different. Any player worth a damn heads for the pl. Scottish pl is the same. Mainly crap footballers playing crap football. Leeds are no different to most and certainly no worse

    Of course they all play crap footie some of the time. Boro went several weeks without a win culminating in their manager walking out then doing a u turn. I said the vast majority play crap footie and they do most of the time. The problem for some Leeds fans is they don't watch anyone else so have nothing to compare us to

    The teams at the right end of the table are playing football we can only dream of. Burnley just gone 22 games unbeaten, Brighton managed 21 and Boro 19... We managed 8 including 6 draws...

    Stop now, you are embarrassing yourself...

    And the teams outside the top six are all crap and were better than most of them, that's what I've been saying
