Hampshire Royal Yeah, there's no doubt that a McDermott team would have held on for a win (just like we did against Arsenal, after we were 4-0 up).

Still, I bet Nigel's happy that Bandini gives him a couple more games!!


We very rarely lost from a winning position the season we won this league under McDermott.

What about that time we were 2-0 up against Villa at half time and lost 2-4?

In fact Saturday was Brian's fault as well, because 9 of the starting XI on Saturday were his signings!

Bandini Our current brand of so-called passing football is all well and good, but no-one can dispute that a McDermott team would have held on for the win on Saturday.

Don't get me wrong though, I still think that the manager has at least another couple of games grace period before Anton needs to start looking for alternatives.

Tell that to the one tgat gave up leads against swansea etc and got comfortably beaten by them in every champ game. A bmacteam wwouldn't have got in to such a commanding position in the first place.

IR's obviously forgotten the 2-0 lead we had at Swansea.

Banders has obviously forgotten us throwing away that lead.

He's also signed one of the best young midfielders in the football league in Luke Murphy and has a much tighter budget to work with than Ronseal Adkins.

Not content with disrespecting one great servant to this club you're now disrespecting a second in Noel Hunt. Classy as always from SPOILTA.

:roll: 4fs can't wait for the school holidays to be over


There's no point delaying the change until after the end of the transfer window - the new guy will need to bring in his own players.

Hard to put a long term strategy in place when your best players, who you're building the team around, are continually being sold from under you in a book balancing exercise.

Whilst Leeds have delved into the transfer market, we still haven't signed a striker nearly 5 months since Adkins took over.
