Totally agree, I did think we’d be sold on by Rads but he seems like he’s here to stay a while longer and taking investors on board. Just good to be “normal” again
Morning all. I don't look too harshly on Cellino, I think he was conned into buying the club and he had no idea how to run a football club but without him would we have got Radrizzani ?
Nah mate. Proper **** him. Shut the canteen so players had to bring packed lunches. Made a load of redundancies. Closed the youth teams. Closed the womens team. Picked ****e managers on the cheap. When fans complained he introduced 'pie tax' and basically put their ticket prices up. Proper ****er. In the same bracket as Bates imo.
2 Italian Owners and one gave us Marcelo Bielsa, the other Dave Hockaday. Let me think, no dont rush me, mmmmm let me see
There are some well wierd predictions of our starting 11 today, does anyone else think players like Rodrigo, Struijk, Alioski, Harrison, Bamford will be sat on the bench? The weirdest selection involved a back 3 of Ayling, Beradi and Cooper, Struijk at DM Raphinha, Pablo, Huggins, Greenwood and Gelhardt. some fans obviously on the beer and on the beach already
Wasnt there a drunken interview on the train. He had a can of lager in his hand and completely leathered and had white powder around his nostrils and top lip
He was sat in front of me away at qpr in the home end and got kicked out when they missed a penalty and he jumped up and cheered
Well guys I’ve been around long enough to remember headlines in the YEP of Leeds Bury ‘em after a 6-0 home win with players like Bobby Collins in the team. I’ve been around for Revies team and all the legends and Inter Cities Fair Cups etc. Winning leagues and then FA Cup in 72. I remember going in the pub with my arm in a slin to find all my mates also doing a Mick Jones. BUT I DONT THINK IVE EVER BEEN SO PROUD TODAY. Maybe its because its been so long since fans were allowed in, but wow what a day and great to have a tear in the eye
I just hate the end of the football season. My saddest day of the year. Always think I should get some money back from Sky as I barely watch during the summer. I know we have the Euros but it just doesn’t give me the same buzz that a Leeds United game brings. Great to hear fans back in the ground.
18 wins 62 goals and 59 points which is the highest total for a newly promoted team since 2000 when Watford did it. We played great football and just about everyone scored except our keepers. Even Phillips scored today too. Come on guys, that was one hell of a first season back in the top flight
Don't be giving Watford false praise for that year! Sunderland got 58 that season. Ipswich even more impressive the following season.
Daily Mirror journo saying Bielsa has signed a new deal for one year. I myself believe this twot is gambling because he says it will be announced next week. We all know his brother looks after his contracts so if anything his brother in Argentina will have a copy to go through.hoping the club tell us tomoz that a deal has been agreed in principle and hope to have it signed soon.
I prefer the story earlier in the year that he was looking at a 2 year contract. Prolly not, but here's hoping .... I believe the contract has been on the table for a long while now, & all agreed. We're simply waiting on him signing once the season is finished, and all of his pre-season essentials have been acted on - transfers etc. The usual hold-ups, so I wouldn't hold your breath until the new signings start coming in.
