Its pretty obvious that they have no interest in improving themselves, and its pretty obvious that they don`t want to stay in the premier league.

I have supported Leeds since 1996 and most of those years they have disappointed me, i see no reason why i should keep supporting a team that clearly don`t whish to improve.

And i am not saying that i expected Leeds to be among the top 5 teams, i did not even expect them to do as good as they did last season. But i did expect them to do better than what they have done.

I frankly don`t see why i should keep supporting a team that apart from a few occasions have done nothing but disappoint me.

And i did not think they would win against Manchester City today i expected them to lose, but 7-0.

The only time i felt happy being a Leeds United supporter where the years 1998-2002 under David O`Leary and 2018-2021 under Bielsa. Also 2009-2010 season when they got prompted to the Championship from league one.

All the other years they have disappointed me

Nobody cares i know. I just felt like ranting.

Sometimes i question my sanity. Occasionally it replies.

Even their Beanie hat has as many holes in it as their defence.

Its time to just get rid of Bielsa and just get rid of all the players. Frankly just dissolve the whole club.

Difficult to know exactly what fans of a lot of clubs want. I am a Millwall fan and want us to reach the play off which then means you want to win the play offs, but at the same time, do I want my club going through the ritual humiliation of massive losses week after week by reaching the EPL?
Leeds were one of the permanent underachievers in the Championship, every time you thought they were going to walk the league or be in contention they managed to bottle it and finish about 10th. So many different managerial changes (14 in 6 years? that's just mental) plus dodgy ownership, financial skullduggery and even now I believe the ownership of the club is hidden behind multiple shell companies in various tax havens.
It's not Man City anyone has to worry about being spanked by, the top 3 are different class, it's the games against those around you that decide whether you stay in the EPL. Bielsa has been a good manager (even with "fencegate"). No idea how much Leeds are spending, but even if you did go down, you still get the ridiculous parachute payments to protect you.

I am (vaguely) part of the perpetually disappointed and embarrassed Newcastle fanbase. We're getting relegated this year, which means for one happy year, if I choose, I can see them win every week in the Championship.

My favourite English team, Barnsley, will also have a year or two contending for the EFL trophy in League One after we get relegated. Want a roller coaster ride? Avoid relegation the final day of the season 2019-20, reach the play offs in 2020-21, and straight back to the drop zone in 21-22.

The Tykes position is understandable, the Toons should be much better.

I say vaguely because the only soccer comp I follow closely is the SPL where my team, Aberdeen, is utter shite this year. I watch highlights of the Championship each week and rarely dip into the EPL at all.
