Look out of their depth already, losing at home to West Ham tonight.

Can see them well adrift at the bottom by Christmas.



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

To be honest I dont think they will have gone into this with Great Expectations and if they are wise will use the money to build for the future.

Pragmatic thinking from the club, it was never about this season. The money secured will secure the club for years and improve the infastructure ten fold. The signings they've made is all eyes on next season where they'll hope to bounce straight back up. They won't mind being a yoyo club for a few years.

Probably best if we don't reach the Premier league then.

They secured the future of the club for years and work at being in a similar position to someone like Burnley I guess…that said, getting outplayed week in week out is hard to take when you’re used to winning.

Mentally it can be hard to bounce back from, you at least want to compete or give teams a game…

To be fair, they are playing the league leaders and European champions (kind of).

They didn’t do to bad really considering West Ham are flying at the moment.

They will get a new ground out of it at least.

Could be the new Norwich yo. yo. For a few seasons.

Agree with this but on the pitch I've watched then twice now and both times they look lost half the time. They're going to get some big beatings this season.
But I'd rather be them than us so fair play to them
