For me, because of his poor buying decisions (irrespective of how much they cost us) and his poor man-management.
We had a very large - but very lopsided - talent pool, that all of a sudden stopped performing and I for one think that O'Dreary is entirely responsible for that. Risdales' "guilt" is, in order: 1. Not sacking O'Dreary approx one year earlier than he did 2. Not having a real replacement lined up (and maybe that's why O'Dreary wasn't sacked earlier) 3. Poor financial management Damian On Wed, Sep 21, 2011 at 11:56 AM, <markbu...@aol.com> wrote: > > >>Leeds needed to get themselves on the rich side of that > gap, and Ridsdale saw that and gambled.
