Since I've been on this site there has been a lot of comments posted and a lot of it negative in a jokey way, but since we seem to be moving forward and MC doing the right things the jokey negativity is now turning into serious picky silly comments. There is a comment further down about who we are playing pre season and how crap they are! First of all it helps fitness, it also puts something back into the community awhile promoting LUFC, and further more who did we play pre season the season we were the Champions of the last league 1 before it became the Premier! Also who did we play in pre season the season we got into the Champions League Semi Final? If you don't know have a look, you might be in for surprise!! We have been saying we want this and that, MC is moving forward not backwards, with this in mind can the serious cynics please remember the words to our song MOT, it's great to have banter but it's boring especially when it has no substance, Ausman, Mad Mick and a few others make spot on comments it's just a few others that would only be happy if it rained everyday and LUFC went out of business!! Sorry if I have offended but it had to be said and for the record my comments aren't perfect and neither am I but I'm Leeds through and through!!

That's all fine but some of us are sick of being used like idiots by lufc. mc.gfh. and any other number of so called . "owners". Leeds supporters have been used for years as cash cows. Pay thru the nose to bee served up with complete dross . oh for someone to put real money and ambition in to this club. Get out of this league and move on. look at what teams like derby are doing. or Bournemouth did. loans and forgettable signings will not get anywhere.I'm not a supporter of mc I must admit.I think he's a lying crook who like the rest just bleeds us dry. sorry if people don't see things the way I do . I've been watching leeds since my 1st game in 1964.I've never felt as sick of the situation as I do nw

Mike, I think the main reason some posts are a bit mickey taking and hopefully humorous is that during times when not a lot is happening the only thing we can do is try to have a bit of a laugh.
This usually takes the form of taking the pee out of ourselves, which us Leeds fans have always been good at (and long may it continue)
After all the definition of banter is: to exchange remarks in a good humoured and teasing way. :-)

We will always have fans who will see the negative side but they are entitled to their opinions. I remember when Collins joined us and there was a debate in the Dog and Gun taproom and one guy said we will get nowhere with a midfield full of midgets, the rest is history. Bournemouth went up without spending big, Derby got some premiership players in and are still in the championship, says it all. All I ask is that the new coach and any new players are given the time to succeed and we are not calling for their heads after four or five games. We need to be united as a club. If GFH were not here I think Cellino would invest more but he will not while they sit on their hands.

I absolutely agree with you Bige and I totally understand what Danumwhite says and I love this site for the banter and after all our years of hardship it is a release to have a joke at Leeds United but it's the other stuff where MC gets slated then he does something right and they have to find something else and then something else, if all we have to worry about is Pre season games then we have moved on from last season. Also what's that all about SLUFC, were not being treated like idiots, maybe when Master Bates was in charge but not now and if that's how you feel, don't go, it's your choice if you feel your a cash cow stay at home!! Go and watch Sunderland who spent well on £50 Million and have been fighting relegation or maybe Liverpool who spent over a £100 Million and have nothing to show for it, I think their supporters have a bigger gripe about being cash cows! Nobody makes us do things, yes we have an opinion and rightfully so but come on, this is the most exciting pre season we have had for years, new manager, MC is like a new Chairman, clumsy mouth but heart is Leeds, new players not old and knackered but promising youth and that's where our success will come from. Just remember where we were 7 years ago, and be thankful of where we are now. MOT.

SLUFC
I've also been supporting since 1963/4
Me memory probably isn't what it was, but I can definitely remember worse times than this. MUCH worse!
I think the signs so far for next season look promising, def better than any time since the bearded one came onto the scene

have to agree with speedy, I have only been fan since 89 as I am a young pup but I know lots of times I have felt worse, bates was all time low off field and how many of our current crop would make all time bad leeds team, none so things on pitch can't be that bad either

MikeWoody, good posts. It is getting more positive but more quality is required. Let's not get ahead of ourselves until our business in the window is done. Cellino is still a lunatic but it seems Pearson and Uwe are his meds.
