Bring back Redders ! Most entertaining bit of the game was Cellino in with the crowd for the second half. A bad day at the office.

I know the league have rules but it does seem a little harsh to try and prevent someone from buying out a club (and associated debts) that would otherwise be bankrupt and god knows where by now. Yet the same regulatory body allow certain premiership clubs to run their businesses at a £250m loss each season.
Maybe they should look at these clubs and consider the fairness on all other clubs in the league and start docking points as financial penalties clearly don't bother them.
If the FA were to ban every director with a slightly dubious tax history from the job there would be quite a few job vacancies me thinks!

A good game, by the sound of it. Could have been a worse score.

up the millers!!!!!!!

sorry local derby and all that. decent game not great but i think we shaded it over 90 minutes...leeds seemed to sit back in the second half, clearly superior skill and pace, slightly odd tactics...

could be a vital three points for us even at this stage.

i'd have taken a draw at half time

[dav123a]

Well a decent first half but a dire second. Looks like we may have another managerial change soon. MC said he has made a mistake in hiring him. He may know how to run a club but he has no idea what makes a good manager.

And Darko has now been sacked

Funnily enough, just after the game I got the feeling that it was dead man walking time. Did he actually do anything? Hopefully Redfearn can carry on where he left off, we actually seemed to be going somewhere with him at the helm.

Let's hope Redders can do it. Don't want to see him sacked by Xmas. MOT

DO IT FOR REDDERS (again)

[soad]

Another painful afternoon.

Hopefully Redders will turn it around again, I don't think we need to beat Watford on number of managers/head coaches in a year.

In other news TOMA is back (again) with the Red Bull rumours resurfacing

[Winky151]

Must be due a manager change aren't we?

Hopefully Redfearn will be given the time it appears he's negotiated to get things right for us but if not at least he's been told he can go back to his academy job (but what of the guy who's then doing the job?).

No doubt Redfearn will be on his way if we lose to Blackpool on Saturday. I remain very uneasy about where we're going to finish this season; only two points above the drop zone after 16 games isn't what you'd call confidence inspiring!

[Zad]

Imagine where we would be if we didn't have the 10 points we got last time he was manager!

From one of Bates many legal cases. Won't cause us any harm. Pity Bates isn't dead yet.

Great goal scoring so far.
Bring on the second half!

[dav123a]

A much needed win . let's hope Redders kicks on and we can move up the table.

Seems I've jinxed it, second half was rather poor.

7000 travelling to Blackburn despite our dodgy away form , hoping for 3 points. MOT
