Fickle Fan

I am about to make a confession.

Over a number of years I have been a willing participant in many threads about our various owners on this and the old BBC site.

In almost all the cases (3), I have been hopeful each would be good for our club and within various timeframes, I began to call them out for their deceptions, lies and taking advantage of the club and the fans.

Now, for the first time in about 15 years, we seem to have a quiet yet strong ownership in place. We are the form team of the championship - 9 wins in 11 games - and are poised to claim an automatic promotion place or at least challenge for one.

Now the confession:

I have become a fickle fan and call on others to join me.

We are doing well. There is no need for criticism and self-righteous evaluation of our ownership. Let's focus on exchanging opinions about lineups, game performance, transfer speculation and activity. Lets engage about the playing side of this great club. Let the ownership get on with continuing their quiet, good work that apparently has taken place over the last 8 months or so.

Be fickle, enjoy the good times!

Marching on Together back to the Premier League and prosperity with Leeds United!

He's tied up Pablo. Jansson is an option after 22 games so after that maybe?

Barkley is here until the summer anyway then we can see where we are.

Hay reckons maybe a couple of loans coming in only so that won't suit many. However we really don't need to be spending massive amounts this window in my opinion. Maybe a left sided attacker/winger and another striker to cover for Wood?

Talk of any big signings is just that - talk. I think Monk will get what he asks for but will that be enough to appease those who think Radz is not going to back him?

Keeping Taylor and two decent loans would be OK for me. As well as telling any other clubs interested in any first team player to do one

Well said, LeedsFan, my feelings exactly.

"Not going to make political statements one way or the other but SNL skits of Donald and Hillary in recent months have been hilarious."

Would be better than the comments about ownership and intent that this article implored people NOT to write about!

You never said we couldn't talk about intent...

Take it easy Jonny - you'll have a heart attack!

I think a double of something strong from Highlands neck of the Glens is required pretty sharpish!

Don, pretty much agree.

How's that sound?
