Following my previous article:
http://www.ja606.co.uk/articles/viewArticle/47582
for which I was heavily criticised for:
1 Not doing enough research before posting the article, as those I named had supposedly posted.
2 Being a southern living, and therefore a Ken Bates loving supporter.
3 Because I live a long way from ER, (not in Beeston) and am unable to get to many games, I shouldn't criticise those that do get to the games.
So far since the end of the Millwall game I have not yet seen an article STARTED by the usual crowd of SG knockers.
Nor have I seen many if any replies from them or those who criticised the previous article. I'm not going to 'name names' but we all know who they are.
In a week where we have mourned the loss of one of our last championship winning team, and one in which we have won 2 out of 2, scoring 6 and conceding none, I think it is really sad when people who won't or don't allow their points of view to be challenged, cannot for once get behind the team and the manager for once and show that we are Leeds UNITED.

After you made your pervious article we lost 5-0 at home to Blackpool.
What is really sad is that you'll stoop so low as to hijack Gary Speed's death to attack people who want the best for the club.

Grayson Out!
If that's the best you can say you're an even bigger waste of space than I thought. You have no justification for that remark. Get behind the manager and the club instead of dragging it down.

For Go Bates and Dubaiwhite,
I for one have no faith in Grayson, haven't had since 2nd half of L1 season, so far, he's done nothing to change my opinion or view of him.
You both need to learn that just cos someone doesn't rate Grayson doesn't mean they don't want the best for the club or players.
Someone who doesn't rate Grayson means they'd like to see someone better running the show. This means they'd like the best for their team but have no faith in the driver we have.
Many are starting to see that we can't go no further with Grayson.
Maybe you two should try and remember that before you go jumping on other peoples bandwagon and targeting certain people just for the sake of it.
We had our 1st home win in 4 games I think it is, hardly something to write home to Granma about, is it.
We've played 20 games and fast approaching the halfway stage, and we all know, from last 2 seasons, what happens in 2nd half of season.
Most will agree, and do, as I've read their posts/comments, that we're not exactly setting the world on fire with our footballing skills, our hoofball, for most part of games and our unsurpassed goal scoring records and a manager who says "my way or chuff off".
Snoddy has to show others how it's done, and he's a winger.
Maybe you two should think a little before targeting certain people on here and try to remember we still have 26 games left to play..............it's where we finish at end of season that counts, and we were in a similar position last year, and look what happened.

GO, I won't delete your comment, though that was uncalled for. I'll leave it there and let others judge.
My point was, when the results go well some people cannot say anything positive about the result. It is as if all some want to do is to use this board to criticise, or as it sometime seems, glory in defeat.
LL, I specifically did NOT target any particular people, but if the cap fits! Again I will let people judge.

Without taking a position one way or the other, it is without any doubt that this past week was unique.
To draw any conclusions from it or even worse to try to make it a benchmark does not make much sense to me.

LeedsLuvr,
Personally, my issue with the likes of bluememe, Grayson Out and Somma's fan club isn't their constant negativity. If they want to be miserable because Grayson's doing well, then it isn't my problem.
My issue is that these people are arrogant enough to believe that their opinions are the only ones that matter and that anyone who disagrees is either a fake fan or a brainless peasant.
The number of times I've seen (insert reference to Somma here) use the word 'deluded' when talking about anyone that isn't him is unbelievable, and whenever anyone argues against bluememe, he resorts to childish insults and seems to lose his grasp on the English language. As for Grayson Out, just look at his comment above.
If we get promoted under Grayson, do you seriously think any of them will come onto the board and admit they were wrong?
You constantly act all high-and-mighty at us for articles like this one, yet you think the behaviour of the aforementioned haters is acceptable.

Apologies to anyone who read my last comment, it was not necessary. Deleted now though.

Well said JLA!.
The problem is people bringing the club and everyone to do with the club down!..
I'll bet some ManU, Chelsea, ManC people think they could be better, but wouldn't it be fun if we could throw money away like they can?..
Or would it?..
LeedsLuvr, you have said a few times you cant stand Grayson, and its made me think that's more personal then a Football thing!..
Some don't like what he's doing, and some point the finger a bit higher!..
If Bates wanted a top class manager in then he'd have one, the only problem is he'd have to give a lot more up then he's willing to do so, and that being the case means we ain't going to see a top , and I mean a top six Premier manager at our club!..
Grayson was taken on not because he's a Leeds fan, its because Bates saw and liked what he did for Blackpool, and in doing the same for Leeds he's being dragged through the mangle more then a sock that won't dry properly!..
Under the restrictions laid before him he's doing a good job, I don't think any manager could do better then he is doing without the backing a manager needs, and I'll also say I think if he had the right backing he could take us further, but that isn't his fault!..
I've said a few times, I'd love to see a list of players he's got, then a list of players he's asked for, and then compare them and debate if he's really as bad as some think!..
Oh, that question again, a funny one because it never seems to find anyone that wants to attempt to answer it, and that means you and the crew you seem to defend!..
Name me, no, this time I'll say us, name us a manager that has ever worked for and told Bates how he want's it doing!..
When anyone can name one then I'll start supporting your views, if not then we've got the right manager but the wrong backer!..
The people that write the tripe everytime looking for a reaction don't need defending, not unless the ones doing the defending are no different to them!..
