Not so pessimistic! Lost all interest in the premier league, not even sure I want us up there struggling. I wasn’t even annoyed by the scum beating citeh as I would be.
But this season should give us hope that success can be achieved! Bournemouth, Brentford possibly heading into the premier league when they should be fighting relegation back to their natural level and Wigan Fulham and Cardiff all down the wrong end with their multimillion parachute payments. However given that this season was the gimme for cellino to sort things out before a push next year we are descending into farce again and possible summer of takeovers possible new manager possible loss of the good youth and the same old shite! Am not optimistic! Interestingly how many seasons have Dave’s match reports at this time of year said he just wants this season to be over…… From: John Lee [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 15 April 2015 11:00 To: Graham White; Andy Pyzer; Matt Anderson; Robinson, Mick Cc: leedslist Subject: Re: [LU] Deja vu and rant I think it's called getting old and realistic chaps!! I'm not quite there yet re all professional sport, as I did watch the masters, Paris-Roubaix, super league etc in the last week, but enthusiasm for football has nearly been flushed from my body, at all levels. Maybe Voice's 'Death of Football' rant about Sky TV in the 90s has finally delivered?? There's no turning the clock back - the only way Leeds can be successful again is i) mr mega bucks comes along and signs cheques a plenty or ii) we get a crop of maybe 8 brilliant kids all at the same time and keep them for 3 years. Depressingly, only the first option is even a remote possibility!!

The whole thing has just become another way for corporations to extract money from us. Another old fart.

Redfearn says they paid good money for their strikers (Norwich) etc etc etc. Ok I'm just checking BBC stats, last game we had 3 on target at home and were outplayed, tonight seemingly we had one on target. We lost. Now call me old fashioned...... but isn't the job of the coach /manager/gimp in charge the chap who looks at his various players in his training squad and says.. now who can hit a fucking barn door.. who can pass to said chap.. who wont fall over in a crisis or kick a bloke who runs past him in a crisis or attempt to parry because shots are so much harder now than when they had leather friggin balls and say right right....... you lot.. You see all those poor (in some cases) buggers who are watching you (20,000+) usually. You get paid a shit lot more and care a shit load less can you please pretend you give a shit for the shirt you are wearing... no, well fuck off then. Next season I expect to see similar... I watched the Russell Crowe thing on Jonathon Ross... he is genuine.. He is a Leeds fan.. Cellino.. who knows... but ffs it has got to get better than this.... I lived in Liverpool for much of my youth from Scotland, I went on a meet and greet with my uncle to LFC in 1980 when I was 14, I met Paisley, Souness, Kennedy, Dalglish etc. in their trophy room, they were all gentlemen and humble, I did a gig with Jack Charlton in Dubai many years ago... lovely bloke in fact I have met many guys over the years in what I did on radio and stuff. I met an ex FA bloke in Dubai last month who swears the best FA coach of al time is Sgt Wilko and he swears he has some serious dirt on LUFC... of course I would never tell you lot.... Without pandering to the old school here, it used to be pride you played for, a team, a nation, a county even. Now quite frankly half these fuckers don't even deserve to clean the boots of even MAN Utd. IMO we need an old school guy with old school ways and teach these young fuckers a bit of respect and pride.. cmon Leeds United... as a Scots born scouse raised Middle East living old bastard. I did my rant thing... carry on.
