The man now has no credibility whatsoever.
"It's not often you say this about one of Simon Grayson's teams but I didn't see much in the way of fight or desire."
It is often people say "It's not often you say this about one of Simon Grayson's teams" though!
He asks why Palace players seem to have more energy and ambition than the Leeds players. But then he doesn't conclude that it's probably because their manager has more energy and ambition than the Leeds manager!
"No matter how positive he is in public, Simon will need to get a grip on this and fast."
He's accused the players of not being bothered! How is that positive?
"For him, this is an unusual situation. He's dealt with spells of bad results before (though not many, I have to say) but I can't think of many times in his three years as Leeds manager when Leeds have played so poorly so many times in a short period. As he always says himself, the one thing his team usually do is respond to a disappointing display with an impressive one."
If he's always saying it, then we must have a lot of disappointing displays!
Has he forgotten the FOUR DEFEATS IN A ROW WITHOUT SCORING, amongst a terrible run, in League One?
Has he forgotten the poor start to this season?
Has he forgotten the poor run of results that saw us as low as 16th last season?
Has he forgotten about the poor run which saw us drop from 2nd to 7th at the end of last season?
Grayson has had some of the worst periods of results, some of the worst individual results and has signed some of the worst players in the club's history!
Why continue to perpetuate the myth that Grayson is a good manager, who can turn things around, when you're basically pointing out the problems he's responsibile for anyway?
It's utter madness!
Eddie Gray and Peter Lorimer do exactly the same thing, and it's sad to see players associated with the best periods in the club's history say such ridiculous things.
What Planet is Matteo On?

Ah, you've "relieved" the tension then, so to speak?

There is alot of rubbish in that article but one thing he got spot on is "But the feeling I get is that the fans are waiting for things to go wrong. It shouldn’t be like this."
I believe that is the way it has been even before the first game of the season. That was not Grayson's doing. But bates
Grayson hasn't done himself any favours this season and i think that if we dont reach the playoffs he will be off.

There are a few on here with two or more accounts, I am convinced that RSL is LIW Jonty and Meme, WW Gyokko ryu is Clivetime and Grayson Out, Pags is Jane Fonda Brigitte Bardot and Marilyn Monroe all rolled into one, Tommy Towton is original koppite, JonnyLosAngeles and MightyWall, and Best Fans and LeedsSouth are one and the same.
There I've said it, it needed saying!

Grayson cannot do anything right with you, can he, GO.
A month or so ago you were going on about how Grayson was leaving out Becchio, last season's top scorer and one of our 'best players', and now last week you complained (Despite Grayson bringing in Becchio) that he was leaving out our best partnership (Ross/Keogh) and we weren't getting goals. Make up your mind.

One thing about Eric, he is constant - constantly deluded.
Any evidence to back up your ludicrous multiple accounts claims?
Watch for the attempted clever comeback without answering the question.

G.K.,
I'm happy with him starting Becchio over Keogh, but he brought McCormack on for Keogh last week, and is not giving what was a good partnership anytime together at all.
