Millwall in 10 days...

and we are still looking to sign 5 more players.

I feel sorry for Viviani, Benedicic and the 3 more signings, if they are thrown straight into the New Den.

Not ideal with a load of changes in the squad, and they are coming in right at the end of preseason. It wouldn't be that big a deal if they were proven in this league, but going to take a while to adjust.

I don't expect this team to come flying out the blocks.

I just go by what Cellino said about the two year thing. It would be one hell of a feat, to get to a top six finish with what is fundamentally a new team and coaching crew. Good luck to them, and may they climb high. We must remember that Miw,waw are a bogey team so not to expect too much

I don't believe him.

It would be a hell of a feat, that would make it so much more enjoyable.

Good luck to them.

I don't care that our opponents are a bogey team, we are going there to beat them.

Eric, I don't do trawling through posts. I said you would deny it and lo, I am proven right

Not being obtuse and certainly not denying anything, but can you tell me where I've wavered from not knowing how we're going to progress next season..?

That's not a denial chummy, that's me asking where I've done it. You might not do trawling through posts, I am merely asking you to back up your comment as I cannot recall the incident..

I don't think you'll be able to.

Oh and on a separate note I agree with your point on the 'wonky eye' comment elsewhere on this board. Talk about immature posting.

He'll not learn.

In context:
"I was getting a bit depressed a week ago, tbh.
Even Eric was wavering (though he'll deny it)"

So in context, this meant Eric was not demonstrating his usual perky optimism that interesting things are happening. Nothing to do with wavering from a particular view of the final outcome (on that, you and I have both been equally consistent in not knowing what it will be)

You little back tracker...!



My perky optimism is and always has been the same regarding the club and will continue.

Interesting things are always happening at Leeds, it's on here where it's all depressingly tedious and repetitive.

I happen to believe we are in for a rollercoaster ride of a season and have buckled up accordingly. Rose tinted glasses stapled on.

It's the ones in the cheap seats I feel sorry for, their view is obstructed by the tube they occupy.



In re the OP I reckon the players will all be chomping at the bit to play at Millwall and the competition for places for once will be a good sign.

I still hopeful for a couple more players



Apprehension is not depression.

I am of course amusing myself in the pre season by writing even more nonsensically than usual Eric,

though what really prompted my comment, was I do recall an article you wrote calling for additional 3 players (I think) and it did seem a little less perkily optimistic than usual, - if you really want to know what made me make the comment

I think you were not your most ebullient when you wrote it. Just an opinion, mind (as some tend to say on 'ere)

I actually think it's one of your better posts.

Oh I'm always doing that, I want more all the time.



I'd probably had an earful from the wife
