Didn't we buy him for something like 4-5 million?

Bates said it was the greatest transfer deal he ever made!

Why can't Leeds fans accept that you are a third division club with a team that is no better than the vast majority of other sides in that division.

It doesn't matter who is the team the club seem incapable of rising up for a really big game - until that can be cured they will always be in this division.

Fans should see the Revie era as a blip rather than the norm - let's face it that has what has since come to pass.

There was a bit more to it than Don Revie in the 25 years that followed though...

Don't think we need a left back, Parker was great thursday night and Aidan White is looking a real prospect behind him.
Sodje is out of contract with Reading so it's up to him. He seems to like it here though so hopefully we can get him permanantly. I've never been a fan of Marcus Hannehman, he's too error prone, abit like Casper. I want a tall, commanding in the air goalkeeper.
A right back is also a must. Again we may be looking to Reading, Graeme Murty has been released, he was a good player a couple of years ago, whether or not he is now remains to be seen. Another one to be released from Reading is Leroy Lita - Possible Beckford replacement (if he goes)?

Failing that I'd like to see us make a decent offer for Cox from Swindon, and we really need a destroyer in central midfield. Perhaps it's time we utilised some more loans from premier league teams, Dickinson certainly went well in his short time at the club.

Who hasn't accepted that ? I don't think any poster on here has said that we shouldn't be or don't deserve to be where we are now, we are where we are division-wise on merit. All we have done is offer our opinions on team selection, playing personnel etc etc.

Why can't all non Leeds fans accept that the club has far more history, tradition, past success and a massive & passionate fan base that don't want 3rd division football than the majority of all other football clubs in England ?

I personally couldn't give a poop about any other football team in any league and certainly wouldn't waste my time on any forum discussing the likes of Derby County, Grimsby Town or any other non-entity.

4th place at the end of the season obviously proves that the football team was better than the vast majority of other teams in the league, 20 of them to be pedantic.

Wrong end of the stick mate, my comment was aimed at the perjury element of Tad's post.
