No. I will be supporting the team. I don't claim to know how to run a club unlike alot of people on here. People need to remember the post-Risdale meltdown, the 80's in old Div 2.
Stay united and we will rise again.
Hope for a billionaire to invest millions and it might never happen.
CasWhite, anything in particular you base your blind optimism on?
Why blind optimism. I am a supporter of my team who has seen them rise and fall a number of times who believes we will rise again.
Are not the people on here who rant on about things they have no knowledge or evidence not blind to the actual circumstances about running our club.

"Are not the people on here who rant on about things they have no knowledge or evidence not blind to the actual circumstances about running our club."
Anybody within the club who supports Bates, for example Lorimer who has some kind of director role, is claimed to be "up his behind".
People don't trust anybody within the club that supports him, just believe they know better.
I am not even bothering to go
Who owns the ground? We pay £1m in rent and I bet Bates owns it. Leeds are a money cow for him.
I know we all want the best for our families, but if you are right Robbyman then it would be a bit extreme just to leave them a few more quid when he pops his clogs. I can't see it really.
complaining all the time, Bate is in CHARGE and all your protesting will be a waste, why dont you just say while Bates is in CHARGE you wont go to the games, then you can let the true fans watch them in peace.
We are improving all the time, If your not happy go and support some other team, what about Plymouth, Ridsdale is involved down there and there in real financial difficulty, your be happy because your really have something to complain about

A great point, well put, but I think you'll find some on here already do support other teams!
Leedsmadness, and others,
I think you can see what is happening but your loyal support says get behind the team whoever is in charge etc etc. I respect your opinion however,
All LUFC fans do support the team, but, they can also see what is happening and they don't like it, they're expressing their views just like you did.
There are several meanings to being positive, 1 of'em is being able to see problems, what's happening, recognising negativity and fixing those problems.
If you stood there and let your friend continually belt you in the face, would you just stand there cos he's your friend, or would you do something about it?
Which would you think would be the positive thing to do?

It's not all fans protesting though is it? It's a minority. I reckon there'll be about 52 of them, you'll not be there though. A futile gesture I'm afraid.
You'll be elsewhere.
How long before a minority turn into a majority Mr Onion.
You also have a bad habit of failing to engage brain before shooting off mouth.
There's probably a good reason for that though.
There will be quiet a few protesting, your always a people who will join in because other are doing it. They need to look round the rest of the CHAMPIONSHIP before they start criticising Leeds.
Boro today have had to sell there players over the summer to REDUCE their wage bill, because the went out last season and spent LOTS of MONEY and it got them NOWHERE.
West Ham lost there first game at home last week and they are favourites, you dont see them calling for the heads of the board, they know the season is more than just ONE game, Back the TEAM.
Bates is like Marmite
This is a minority view and does not truly represent the views of most genuine Leeds Fans-
If Leeds had a credible alternative maybe people would start to warm to the Bates out campaign.
MOT or not
Your last line is exactly why Bates doesn't let you know about the alternatives.

There is I wanted to reach down to your level.
If anyone had wanted to buy Leeds they would of made sure it was leaked that way they might get supporters backing, but no one has come forward with any serious offers, people have had a sniff but thats it,
Bates is ensuring we have a financial future, and for that i support him fully
