Default Massive Dissapointment!!!

Alright I am highly dissapointed with the club... This was suppose to be a great year, one of the easiest fields in UEFA, and an easy top 3 Premier League finish... Now IT ALL can't be TV's fault, most of it is, but not all... The way I see it if he takes the fall, Ridsdale should too! Do the players not care?...
All I know is that UNLESS Leeds get extremely active in the January transfer market, or run the table in UEFA it's going to be a LONG LONG LONG season... If the players don't care, get rid of them... There should be no excuses, the current set of players/managers/club officials are an embassament!



Somewhere in a Pub in London... DOL is laughing hysterically!... :P

I'm not sure who or what is to blame, if any one thing is (beyond bad luck).

But on the subject of El Tel...

It's his lack of ambition that bothers me.
Every manager wants to win, of course... but the very least you could say about O'Leary was that he had high hopes for the club. Often unrealistically high hopes. These same aspirations turned against him when things got spotty, but at least the boys had a goal beyond not getting relegated. Leeds is such a young side, and easily influenced by confidence (or a lack there of), I think they need that sort of mountain to climb.

Of course none of this has anything to do with the brass tacks of getting out there and actually winning games...I'm just spouting off...

Unbelievable. Ridsdale's slide continues. I really think those trials took everything out of him. Looks like his answer still is "blame it on Dave". If he doesn't want the responsibility, he should just resign.
