EraniosSocks Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Oh and just to have a laugh, my personal choices is what went wrong. My Grandad supported Man City, he took me to Maine Road and bought me the shirt. My dad proceeded to burn it and keep getting Derby down my neck. Cheers Dad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His last throw of the dice. Waghorn was injured leading up to the final. Marriott barely featured from March onwards that season and his Leeds goals were his first since the 5th of January.

Ken Tram Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 We have not had our strong travelling away support - which must have made a difference. And we have large home crowds. So, if fans make a difference, we must have been affected more than other clubs during lockdown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTinMan Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 The recruitment this entire season has been diabolical, seemingly gambling most of the budget on Jozwiak which hasn't worked out, not offering Martin a new deal (I know he got injured but there was no plan to replace him anyway), loaning out Jack Marriott (again he's got injured but where was the logic in it anyway?) gambles on players like Ibe, signing relegated players in Marshall and Byrne.... basically it was clear as day and I said as much to my old man when the season started and before it was announced that Morris was looking for a buyer because he'd put bugger all into a side that was dreadful the previous season and taken the cash for promising youngsters in Bogle and Lowe and that's continued this season with Morgan Whittaker. The loan signings in January were desperation and showed no ambition to do anything bar survive. We're going down this season fundamentally because we couldn't score in a brothel and our investment up top has been Lee Gregory on loan and Colin Kazim-Richards from whatever god awful league he was stealing a career in. I can genuinely hand on heart say I don't care which of this side is here next season and that's a bit harsh on some of the youngsters perhaps who I have some sympathy with, I don't like any of the senior players and haven't done for a few years now. We're in big trouble next season I fear it could be the next Bolton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but I think that is ridiculous, how supportive would it have been at PP, be honest now. Empty stadiums are the best.

LittleEatonRam Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 1 hour ago, kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong said: Let's be honest here,it started to go wrong when Mel took over and began making crazy decisions which have ultimately took the club to the brink of league 1 and financial disaster. Prior that we were fiscally secure under the Americans and were within an inch of promotion with a squad assembled at a minimal cost but which we have failed to match up to since. He didn't mean to,he loves the club but it's been a terrible marriage. I agree with this but it's worth bearing in mind that our fans didn't do much complaining at the time. Everyone was thrilled everytime we broke the transfer record, hardly pausing to consider if the player was worth it, and each time MM performed some feat of financial trickery to avoid FFP they were happy as long as it was pissing off Steve Gibson.
