...in the Championship. Only Wigan and Rotheram have more recent founding dates. When Revie's Leeds won the title in 1969, Leeds had existed a mere fifty years, to put that into context by the same year many English clubs had already passed or were reaching their centenary, which Leeds will only reach in October this year!
Maybe some fans should consider this when judging Bielsa a failure after just one season which he has reached the playoffs. Leeds have no divine right to be in the top flight on the contrary we have spent the majority of our relatively short history in the second tier

Leeds are the third youngest club...

The first team in 10 years I think to be top at Christmas and not go up. You've been in the top 2 for probably 70% of the season, 2-0 up against Derby (who were very poor in the first 35 minutes of the 2nd leg btw) in the PO semi finals and you lost.
Alright rewinding back to July and saying that would be good, but let's put it into context, it's been disappointing.

Yeah but they've only existed 99 years so they shouldn't really be in contention.

Exactly, but the Muppets on our board just keep fooling themselves that it was a fantastic season.

Fair enough about us bring a young club compared to big guns...
But really not sure how that links in with most Leeds fans expectations about where we need to be - and should be given the great opportunity we had this year through autos
