I agree. McD was a nice bloke who says the right things but I am surprised at the reaction of some of the Leeds fans. I went to the Barnsley game aswell and it was woeful. The sole tactic was to pass it to Lees to pump up to the big man. Again and again. It was predictable and a piece of piss to defend against but we had no other ideas. I vowed not to waste any more of my money on the club after that game until there was a drastic improvement in not just the team but the whole approach of the club. I am sick to the back teeth of owners who think they can make a fast buck by flipping the club once the manager has perfomed miracles whilst spending buttons. It's never going to happen.
You can't get away from the fact that we are a very very poor team, far worse than when Warnock was in charge. It's true McD has not been backed, but I believe the players at the club are capable of playing much better than they currently do. They showed what they can do against Watford. I'm convinced if Poyet had got the job we would be a far better team by now. I'm not endorsing what is going on at the club, just saying I'm not surprised McD has gone and I'm not too disappointed either. Didn't Don Cellino pump loads of money in to Cagliari and take them to the top flight from nowhere? I know he sacked 38 managers in 20 years along the way.
