Might have been a post worth looking at if you had known the team that beat Manu

Leeds: Ankergren, Crowe, Naylor, Kisnorbo, Hughes, Howson, Kilkenny, Doyle, Johnson, Beckford, Becchio.
Subs: David Martin, Prutton, Grella, Michalik, Snodgrass, Capaldi, White.

Doyle was a frigging hero that day, as was Kilkenny.

Excellent point, well put.

That last comment was for Stoopo by the way

So - where did Kilkenny go?

Ankrergren?

Crowe?

Naylor?

Hughes?

Paddy?

Grella?

Doyle?

Martin?

Prutton?

Need I go on?

Utter nonsense. Surely every player that's sold comes from a club that doesn't want him.

Gradel wasn't wanted by Leicester.

Well said Tony not every but at least 90%

Big C is rebuilding from the depths of dispare, when will people just accept & move on.......hahahahhaaaa

Until it all falls appart I will follow, keep an open mind & sing loud & proud for my team

Yes ofcourse but you miss the point..........nobody else wants them either............ except suckers like us.

Based on what knowledge? I reckon diddly squat.

Solihul, How do you know nobody else wants them?

H- All hail Cellino............... Exactly

Naylor (Leeds to the core) hacking down Rooney in that game, and turning away accepting his yellow.

Legend.

When we signed them -

Schmeichel - known but not the finished article
Johnson - known but green and immature
Howson - unknown, came through our ranks
Snodgrass - little known about him, we took a punt
Gradel - unwanted and we were his latest chance
Beckford - generally unknown and very green
Becchio - unknown from the lower reaches of La Liga Adelante

What you fail to understand is that we actually took those players and developed them into wanted and rated players.

Basically your whole premise is flawed

I disagree with this article in its entirely.

The team that beat Mun U was poor , at least nothing special.
Fortunate for us our opponents were not at the races that night, maybe they were over-awed by the size of our support.

Well said, Soli. We are replacing rubbish players with rubbish players. At the end of the day, we still have rubbish players. Until we sign quality players who other teams want (need money to sign these kind of players), there is no way that we can get promoted.

So what did our team of wanted players back then win?????

Considering the Midfield and Keeper are prem players now we got one (albeit amazing day) victory at Sc@m.

Hardly a basis for.measurement I feel.

Why can't people see that he's replacing old deadwood with younger players, to be fair if they weren't hungry enough to take the challenege they wouldn't bother traipsing accross Europe for what sounds like not much more than they were in before.

Both matches that we've fielded just 4/5 of last years squad we've won. Why can't people be patient and ride this season out.

People demanding action yet are too blind to see Cellino is giving them answers.

He's run a team in the top flight for thr best part of 20 years on a horrendous home gate attendance. He obviously knows something about football!!!!

Well said AZA

Great article but of course it's been run into the ground by the blind bland 'cheery' bullies. They stop being cheery when anyone points out how ridiculous their viewpoint is.
AZA what answers is MC giving? He's sold our best player and replaced him with nobodies, sacked half the staff, and made us a laughing stock, and appointed a manager who was too bad for the non-league. We are in a much worse position than we were before he arrived. It's clear to everyone but the bully boys on here.
By the way, in that 20 year period he achieved nothing and spent nothing. Bates ran teams for a long time as well, do you think he knows anything about football? Your logic is bonkers.

"Sold our best player" you said it yourself SOLD, not given away for some poultry sum. Sold for huge money.
"Replaced with nobodies" how do you know Mr Coach? You'd rather a squad of 30-35 year old journeymen looking for a last pay cheque.
"Much worse position" what....a solvent club, some equity and a squad that's average age doesn't warrant a free bus pass?
"Achieved nothing" what getting a club the size of Yeovil into Europe is nothing? (No offence Yeovil, build a bloody roof on the away end)
"Appointed a manager" no, quite clearly he's a coach as stipulated by all parties.
MC is giving us a change, a new direction, no more players getting more money than he thinks they deserve ie Hunt. No.more getting ripped off by agents, no more selling jewels for peanuts, promise of the stadium in November.

Yeah and Wilde was an omo sensual!

If him being that means something to you then you are one narrow minded individual.
