Me and my son were at ER for the match against Bristol. This was my first visit for decades due to the fact that I've lived in Holland for the last 35 years.I agree with everything that AZA said in a previous post especially about White being the m.o.m. What we did see was an exiting game of football with some fair amount of skill,some mistakes,some controversy but imo the most important thing was that the Whites showed lots of passion and fighting spirit. If they keep playing like that there should'nt be too many problems for the rest of the season.
I would like to mention that we did the stadium tour before the match and as was told to us by Sticks, the tour guide , that whether you like KB or not, the backroom staff seem to think he's doing a good job.
I'd also like to thank Pags for her advice on where to eat in Leeds, we've put on around a stone in one weekend but we enjoyed every minute of it.
Hoping to do it all again in the near future ,MOT
Trip to ER

Glad you enjoyed, White is pretty good playing in a position that Grayson says isn't his.
Shame we didn't use him more last season instead of paying Mccartney's wages.

Well I hope you are your son enjoyed yourselves
The staff probably like Bates as due to his over tight budget thier jobs are safer than ever. They also see developments around the ground etc (that no one knows who owns). You have to think Ken Bates DOES own it all, why would WE otherwise be paying through the nose for improvements that won't pay off until KB has long gone, he's just adding value for a sell off (I hope)

Glad to hear you enjoyed yourself, good to hear the backroom staff think the Chairman is doing a good job too.
