Strengthening in the right areas..

Coming to elland road is no longer a fearful place as teams raise there game & the top sides raise there game even more. As they surge forward towards an already shaky defence they smell fear & go right for the jugular just like a pack of wild animals coming in for the kill. However if we address these areas where we are most vulnerable & replace the deadwood with sheer might & tenacious characters we will always stand a chance & our pure fighting instinct will kick in for sure. As eddy gray said tonight.. we need a dominant, strong, dependable character or two to protect us at the back & stop these fearless sides penetrating through our
ranks so easily. The decision to get rid of bradley johnson (for example imo) was a very poor one. He was built like a tank & often protected our precious back four. Is it really so difficult Simon/Ken bates or whoever is running the show to see that this is what we so badly need. Without this sort of rearguard we get steamrolled time & time again & people's patience are beginning to be severly tested now more than ever before. The penny has got to drop sometime & i wish a penny or two would be spent more wisely on quality players rather than quantity. I feel sick to the stomach to see whats happening to this Awesome club & i'm not a season ticket holder due to long term disability (chronic back pain, slipped disc). How is it that we've come to have such a tight budget? i read on here recently that sheffield wednesday have in the region of £17 million. By the sounds of it bates is bleeding this club dry. All the players we've had going out & yet barely anything coming in. IMO bates & grayson are as bad as each other. Grayson continuously makes very poor decisions which = poor signings & Bates... well.. i think we know what he is all about. Finally, grayson says on the leeds website that he is keeping tabs on alan smith at mk dons.. To me this just sums up the total lack of ambition that the club so badly needs right now. Loan a Simon @ Rent a Bates.com Sign the petition now to get them both off the books!!

MOT.

gallah, I was miffed when Bates effed around with
Bradley J. I thought he was an asset. He's since gone on to prove his true worth. And proved yet again the utter
and complete incompetency of Bates and co and their
inability to spot football talent.

There will be no penny dropping. Bates doesn't give a sh*#e about our club. Only the money he can drain out of it. He will serve up more twisted lies tomorrow as to
why we didn't sign awesome player 1, 2, 3, ,4 and 5.
And that this club is an expensive club to run blah, blah. It is the most frustrating time EVER to be a Leeds
fan. Watching that parasite lie over and over with absolutely no consequence is incredibly wrong.

Hate is a strong word to throw at anyone. It's generally reserved for truly detestable people throughout history.
For me, it perfectly sums up my feelings toward the
man currently occupying the chairman seat at ER.

As for Grayson, it struck me tonight that he's like that
dullard son who is appointed Vice Chairman of his Dad's company with absolutely no qualifications. He then goes on to stumble around his workplace looking clueless,
adding nothing, and continually p#*sing off the rest of
the company. He has no business being manager of LUFC. For one, he couldn't manage his way out of a laundry basket. Absolute carp.

Sad times clouded with lie upon lie upon excuse.

Kilkenny's celebration was fantastic and showed a true players feeling towards Bates. All Bates cares about is profit.

As for Grayson i find it incredibly sad that a guy that turned this club around in league 1 and has given us many great moments like the FA cup matches against Skum, Spurs and Arsenal is now seen as a clueless manager and seen by many to be setting the club back. Maybe they are right and Grayson's level as a manager only stretches to a mid table championship club. I will be very interested to see where Grayson goes after Leeds Utd and whether he goes onto bigger things and outperforms our club.

Ken, you're a bigger joke than the real Ken.
