Regular managerial changes and poor transfer policy created a very dismal atmosphere around ER. After the sacking of Eddie Gray and the loss/release of so many youngsters who went on to have good careers, Seaman, Phelan, Sheridan, Sellars, Irwin..... sping to mind. Times were certainly bad. It took 8 yeras to get back to the big time.<br /><br />Today we have been out of the top flight for over 10 years, suffered releagation, some embarrassing cup exits, Histon anyone!,seen a managerial merry-go-roundd, a stream of mediocre players come and go and yet the fans still turn up week in week out.<br /><br />I beleive we are now experiencing a worst period than the 1980s, the team look absolutely clueless. Last night's performance was dire and must rank as one of the worst in the past 50 years. Wood at £1m is hopeless, Bamba irresponsible in picking up a Yellow card meaning he will miss the Cardiff game......<br /><br />It is difficult to see where the team/club go from here other than relegation. I was lucky enough to see the great Revie teams but thought post Revie I would never see another Leeds Utd Championship winning team, but Wilko and Strachan answered the call. <br /><br />In today's situation could even a Wilko/Strachan type duo rescue what was a very proud football club? Ceryainly not with the mad Italian determined to control everything. Maybe the football authorities will do Leeds Utd a favour for once and force Cellino out! <br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4958249806167287259.post-15392357962339669192015-10-30T10:27:59.973+00:002015-10-30T10:27:59.973+00:00Bought a season ticket am I due a refund through s...Bought a season ticket am I due a refund through some trades description act?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397042913846514379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4958249806167287259.post-3129812292261400372015-10-30T01:03:02.819+00:002015-10-30T01:03:02.819+00:00What a superb summing up although I wasn't the...What a superb summing up although I wasn't there tonight,as I've just about given up and home games mean missing half a day's pay. Fans have gone to amazing lengths to stick by the club since it dropped out of the PL,but at present its gone back to the level when the great Don Revie turned it around over 50 years ago. Unless the burdens holding it down at boardroom level- not all of Cellinos making mind- are eradicated from the club then this level is where we'll stay forever,where the Antenuccis and Doukaras offer little more than us making up the numbers. The return of Redfearn however with his Rotherham side gives the opportunity to show our appreciation of the man who should really be our manager.Blackpool Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02369431640249448957noreply@blogger.com
