Frustration release:

Noel Whelan: "Let’s start pushing forwards and getting into that Premiership where everyone wants to be but where Leeds United should be.
We need to be up there playing against the Chelseas and the Man Uniteds and the Man Citys.
We have got the fan base, home and away, and the club’s history is all there to be seen.
We need to start making more history."

Yes, yes. I until this day can't uderstand how it can be that nonstory clubs like Stoke, Swansea, Chealsea or Aston Villa are playing in PL or are given great owners while the greatest ENGLISH club is stagnating in this second division. The club which have many fans even in God's forgotten places like Poland (my place. ) and in many much more forgotten places. How it can be! You ask why this is the greatest English club? Because when it last played in the PL it was single one succesfull English/British club which does not changed into foreign mercenary company like the rest of your clubs. For me it is English Barcelona, club identified with great academy, its own ethos, production of its own talents with the minds made to love this club (look at the faces of Alan Smith and James Milner after Bolton game. ) . Look at Leeds squad in 2000/2001 there were only TWO PLAYERS who did not speak English NATIVELY, Bakke and Dacourt. Why Leeds still is the last club with which English manager won league title? that's why so many people in the world loved and still love your club, same like Barcelona. Because it constitutes every positive aspect of your football philosophy. English/British way is Leeds United way, not M********* United or City. BTW look at "English Champion" Man City from 13/14 and how they were smashed by Barcelona in this same season in CL, Barca was playing like against Granada or other nonstory club. Its really sad, the way in which this famous club is run, but on the other hand it in some way represents a state of English game dominated by hollow money which replaced philosophy, English football culture, player's respect for a shirt, who should respect them? foreigners? or homegrown players who are treatet like rubbish by their own clubs and are cast away? It is in your own interest of the whole British Isles, not only of England and the rest of United Kingdom, to return this club to healthy state in order to again represent that your football tradition is not dead.

{Ed001's Note - disrespectful post. Swansea have a great back story, from almost going out of the bottom of the Football League to competing in the Premier League in just a few years. Stoke have a great history, with Matthews etc. Even Chelsea have a history, just not of winning trophies in the past. Villa have plenty of history. Cut out the swearing, I don't want to sit and edit half a post like that, stop being so disrespectful to clubs who are in a far better position than Leeds, and try learning from their examples.}


1.) 23 May 2016 11:58:28
Have to agree with Ed, seems almost a crazy post

Villa have far better hitory than us (won far more including european cup) . Leeds are my team and I love them as much as anyone. but we are far from the best english team, many teams have better history. let's be honest in our greatest era we were often nearly men who did not fullfil potential. As for our sqaud being mainly british back in the day, not sure this is quite correct either or what this has to do with anything.

We do have great academy and always have from revie, to wilko, to recent age and even since religation but then so have so many other look at man utd west ham and saints, everton and liverpool for example

finally I so hate this leeds fan entitled rubbish. history counts for nothing and we as a club as entitled to nothing and should not be a prem club as a given. we were badly run and almost went out of business, 70's so what right now we are not a big or successful club. let's just enjoy being leeds and not upset that we are not what leeds were.


2.) 23 May 2016 13:13:54
Well, I'm writing from a position of a foreigner and I can assure you that in Poland no one ever heard about Stoke and Swansea before they reached the Premier League recently, and no one considered Chelsea as a big club before Abramovich bought them. As for Aston Villa, no one thinks that they are greater club than Leeds even now.

As for Leeds they were always widely popular before relegation alongside Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United, so it is sad for me that this fame is disappearing due to the club's problems. Of course Arsenal, Liverpool, Man Utd have more trophies, fame, money etc. it is my personal opinion that Leeds is the greatest in England (I think that for you too) but it had something unique which decided on its popularity (which I tried to explain).

You may disagree with me but the level of popularity abroad is in some way an indicator of the club's fame and greatness. It is frustrating for me as a Leeds fan that Swansea is playing in Premier League, while Leeds United, which have so many fans in your country and abroad, is stagnating in second division.

I remember times from yearly 2000s when so many children were wearing Leeds shirts in Poland (Chinese imitations of course) , now, many of them still follow Leeds and of course many more forgotten about it. I simply wish for Leeds to be successful and popular again.

btw. I have never seen anyone in a Villa shirt or other dress in Poland, while people in Leeds shirts or jackets can be seen, not as common as 15 years ago, but still.


3.) 23 May 2016 14:02:55
Can't help but think; in the 2000's that if a lot more Polish kids and others across the world were wearing genuine Leeds club shirts, we might have had a bit more cash, a softer landing and an easier sale to an interested party.
Sorry but, I fail to see how this post is anything other than stirring for the sake of it. When the Premier League started Norwich were battling against Villa for supremacy. I feel for the Villa fans. I really do. They might be some of the most dull, silent fans (try singing, boys, it can help) in the country but they don't deserve the asset stripping and board disinterest they've been subjected to the last 10 years.
Villa is a proud club with a proud history.
With the state of the current squad and the disdain of their current chairman, who knows when they'll be back in the top flight.
In our case. we have a chairman who is bit too interested in all the wrong ways. I've defended Cellino in the past but, I concede, if he screws up this transfer window, he really needs to go.


4.) 23 May 2016 17:09:49
I was in ibiza about seven years ago and all the kids said it was man u, leeds and Liverpool. They were the most famous English clubs . Coming from spaniards not me .

Walter Zenga, our new watermelon. Cheaper version of Cannavaro.

1.) 02 May 2016 20:16:37
Will suit cellino as he's never stayed long at any club he's managed longest stint bring 2 years and has been at 15 clubs in as many years.


2.) 02 May 2016 21:04:04
What this club needs is a former Italian goalkeeper as coach. Pathetic.


3.) 02 May 2016 22:29:39
I think you'll find his name is Pathetico actually!


4.) 02 May 2016 22:43:19
Zenga perfect for Cellino. Out of work and averages a year at every club (15 in total) . Moves on because of what? certainly not, success? How is that an improvement on Big Steve? Except that he must keep his mouth shut and not talk back to the teacher.
I also wish the posts would stop saying "Leeds United wants". Correctly, it's "Cellino wants"


5.) 02 May 2016 22:59:24
Think we'll get linked with any Italian who has ever managed. Just a sick joke. Hopefully!


6.) 03 May 2016 10:00:33
leodis why you posts stop saying leeds want and cellino wants, surely this is how football works the chairman picks his man, or do other clubs take a democtratic vote to pick the next manager? Also some people are jumping on this, we all say how silly paper stories are yet angrily jump on them when we don't like the story.

I suggest we all just chill take a step back and wait and see what happens, then see the new manager mess up then cause a riot.

While looking on stats of some teams in the championship on transfermarkt I noticed something funny with Grayson and Preston, by looking at his results which are quite impressing, at the beginning of the season it was bad but he turned it around and now they are 7 pts of play offs. But what is more interesting. I think that if he would manage Leeds this season he wouldn't be given the chance to turn things around. Judging by his results he would have get sacked between 12 september and 3 october. In fact it looked quite similar to Rosler situation or was even worse.

1.) 09 Mar 2016 15:13:11
interesting stats, just makes you realise what a fine line it can be between success and failure.
I did note there was no mention of the influence of the colour purple around 17 th of September and it role in decision making at that time 🤔🤔.


 

 

01 Mar 2016 11:29:48
I'm now praying for Parkin to buy our club and appoint Moyes on long contract. He could bring stability and calmness like in Everton.

Lajt

1.) 01 Mar 2016 12:21:47
Parkin is never going to buy the club. He doesn't have the cash. He might buy into it. His influence and cash might bring some stability and improvement.


 

 

09 Feb 2016 08:19:38
Looking at Sheffield Wednesday. They acquired great squad in two transfer windows. I hope that they go up this season or next. They have better players on every position including their captain on defence who is one of us whom we get rid . Their promotion will be shocking for our fans and I hope that it will push rich Leeds fans to do something, buyout Cellino and the rest. And we will end impossibilism mentality which affects as for far too long.

Lajt

1.) 09 Feb 2016 11:12:54
No chance of them going up!


2.) 09 Feb 2016 15:24:11
why would you want a rival team to go up. Surely you must want them to over spend over budget fail to go up then have to sale players cheap not be able to buy and get religated. bit like what happened to us. that is the smart leeds fans thoughts surely?


3.) 09 Feb 2016 15:58:47
Yeh can't understand any Leeds fan wanting the wendies up I personally thought we were the better team there bar the goals.


4.) 10 Feb 2016 07:00:27
I want them go to up to show us fans that even petty clubs like them can do that with ambitious owner. No more excuses to Cellino and other owners if they want Leeds they must be ambitious and fulfill our expectations. i'm tired of this crap.


5.) 10 Feb 2016 11:12:36
now come on lajt that is not being fair is it? it is not crap it is just where leeds are at the moment and where we should be. lots of teams go through this their whole history and I think leeds will be this crap for many a season to come due to past history. I think it is unfair to blame our current plight on MC considering what hand he has been dealt and how the club is run. we are where we are due to past owners more than the current one. not every team can be good, not every team can go up, some teams just make up the numbers in the legaue (lot of my local clubs fans have seen this their whole lives) we use to be good, we are not anymore and may never be good again. That doesn't make me want to see local rivals do well. all it should make fans do is realise we are not as big or good as these other clubs which have been run better since 1996. we are all gutted we are not doing better, we would all like promotion but as fans and adults we realise it is not on the cards at the moment and nothing anyone can do about that. so my view as a fan is to take it on the chin in good humour, stop moaning and support the team as best I know how. have a little club mentality it is far more fun and then you enjoy the little mercies like not getting religated, every win is like a cup final win and not getting spanked week in week out is a blessing. some leeds fans live in the past and think we have some devine right. Try thinking like a millwall or leyton orient fan it is far more suited to where this club is not where this club was.


6.) 10 Feb 2016 11:46:04
I understand your point but can't agree with it. Look at SW since their relegation from PL they were moving between Championship and League One. Their best place in Ch was 9 in season 2006/ 2007 and it was only one time when they were in top 10 of Ch and add to this two relegations to L1. So they were poorer even than we. Look at them now after Chansiri takeover two different clubs. I feel anger, frustration and jealousy because how long we will wait for good ownership? Now even Sheffield Wednesday are better than we. I'm sick of this and will never accept 'small club mentality' which affects more and more fans who accept that we are poor and that it fits us. If we accept this nothing will change.


7.) 10 Feb 2016 14:02:36
i do see where you are coming from but don't think we as fans can do much to change it to be honest. also unlike sheff wed and the other clubs we nearly went out of business, outside of portmouth and blackpool no other club in the country was run as badly as us for so long. we are lucky to have any club so compared to our only to real rivals, blackpool and portsmouth we are doing well considering how bad it will be. leeds are a big club with good youth and good fan base so we will rise again and I do think this will be the worse period in our history but don't think changes can really happen over a season or two and do think we will be here for a good five or so seasons and think that is both realsitic and accpectable considering. I also think it is unfair that MC who is crazy but decent is getting stick for past chairmans crimes. MC is not the best but there are far worse out there. and our status being as good as it is is largly down to him. he is not the richest and not the best but a lot better than most will give credit for. While I agree we could be better I am just thankful that I don't have to support leyton orient or crystal palace (which would be my two options should Leeds fold) I do agree with your logic and your sentiment LAjt and think your post are far from silly but I do think it could and should be a lot worse than it currently is.

I have problem with him. I very like him and think that he is a good striker, look how many "100%" situation he has during a match, his positioning is vary good he finds opportunities but has problem with using them it is problem with his mind, he is still young, probably never played on stadium with such intense atmosphere were support has expectations bigger than people running the club and players playing for it. This players are accustomed for playing in lower divisions and are not enough mentally strong to play for a club whose supporters have premier league and winning mentality (at least most of them) . This is a big problem for him and many other players and this is for my one of the many reasons why we are in such plight. It is a curse of Leeds United, of the club in fall undermined by poor management and its former glory.

Snooker147, you answered yourself. You want to back Cellino, to show him appreciation, but on the other hand you want him to end head coach rubbish, to sign good manager, to spend money on players. The problem is that this are things which he will not do, he is unable to do so and that's why so many people want him sell the club.

Parkin wants full takeover which means he need to pay 60 mill because this is value set by Cellino. I think that it is first step to his buy out. Of course it does not mean that he will succeed. Same strategy was taken by Enterprise Insurance.
