Irrespective of going to games or not, I can't imagine anyone in the list is pro Bates? Wash your mouth out! :->
I've not been to ER for years due to living in different climes, but the man is about as transparent as a bag of ***t and it is this lack of transparency that is poisoning everything leaving every word he utters (and now to a lesser extent SG) as infuriating and provocative. I genuinely admire the massive dedication the ST holders amongst you have in forking out that MASSIVE amount of money for previously what was 3rd and now 2nd tier footy. Unless I lived in Leeds city itself, I don't know how all of you do it - but it still doesn't make KB more likeable. Rather I would say the divergence amongst the listers is if the club should be run as - a viable footballing concern: if not profitable as a business at least not a non-money losing operation with football being the (massively) primary focus i.e. players. - going "beyond football": profits are NOT exclusively for the football side, are used to develop and "diversify" the income streams of the club (conference areas, boxes) and not all profits are used automatically on players due to owner's whim, and as is his wont given he is the owner. Allegedly. Please be gentle with the flaming responses... ;-> BMW PS I'm still 100% with Rich Walker on Becchio. :-> -----Original Message----- From: leedslist-boun...@gn.apc.org [mailto:leedslist-boun...@gn.apc.org] On Behalf Of DAVID NATTAN Sent: martes, 24 de enero de 2012 12:28 To: list leedslist Subject: Re: [LU] January YesNo problem with the number of points gained in January BUT you have to factor in that we were 1 0 down in each of the 3 games whilst it was 11 v 11. We only actually got any goals (and won any points) when the opposition were down to ten men.In each of the 3 games the dismissal came early on and in none of them was the red card given for preventing a goal by us - Ipswich would have been on own goal if anything- I have said after both the home games that the fact that we scored so late on does show a commitment from the players and a belief in the manager. It appears there is a bit of a split on the list - those who reckon we are doing well and are pro Bates are those who for the most part do not tend to go to games, whereas those of us who are more downbeat and pessimistic are those who go to ER. (with obvious exceptions Dr Mike and his MS and anti Grayson stuff) A bit like the Becchio situation - those of us who watch him regularly know that he is very limited (but has been effective) whilst those who only see the goals on TV, read the scores think he is great. This is NOT a 'real fan' argument or in any way meant as a slight on those of you who do not go to games for whatever reason Dave _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org PETE CASS (1962 - 2011) Rest In Peace Mate Confidencialidad Este correo electrónico y, en su caso, cualquier fichero anexo al mismo, contiene información de carácter confidencial exclusivamente dirigida a su destinatario o destinatarios y propiedad de Vodafone España.
