Weve lost our way in both the transfer market and also in player retention thats for certain. I do think the club tried to add quality this off season tho so far that hasnt worked out for whatever reason.
The club management does seem stale tho. The ticket office is a joke, the merchandising well its laughable really. The hard core fans are taken for granted thats for certain.
Given the price of a burger and chips at the stadium it might be cheaper to go corporate and get a 3 course meal. Jeez £7 for 3 chicken nuggets and chips.
Oh boy im getting old.
Saints season ticket holders go free to academy and reserve games which are played at Saints ground. We have to pay £4 to stand in the Stanningley mud under garbage floodlights. Leeds can surely do better than that? Its simply not good enough.
Corporate is £230 a head - to watch that garbage - if you were spending corporate money would you spend it at Leeds? Facilities in the new North stand are stunning on a par with any PL ground so maybe you would given the game is secondary to the food/booze etc.
Youth development which used to be at the core of the club's culture hasn't produced a half back in 20 years nor a hooker, nor a quality prop. Youth development at Leeds reminds me of a musician with writers block - they never get when they have no money only when they don't really need to write.
I agree about Stanningley is that really how the club treats stars of the future - RU takes precidence over pitch usage. Crowds are about the same.
