Agree but at present, energy, fitness are a long way off getting anywhere near that

The team do look unfit and lacking energy.

Remind me, who recently joined the fitness and conditioning staff?

That's right, it's Ian Kirke's fault.

Well they whole squad looks in poor physical condition.... to much work in the gym and not enough with the ball.

As a FC fan, Leeds born and lived here all my life, it's hard to resist, especially given the absolute canning I've taken over the years at work in Leeds from Rhino's fans who don't even go to games.

So you've lost a few games, big deal you won the bl00dy treble last year and have had 10 years of glory. Some of the comments on this forum and on twitter are frankly risible. A season of rebuilding and you'll be back challenging. Sacking MCD is not the answer, certainly not before we play you.

And that is what happens when the assistant left to do preseason whilst the coach peed about isn't the USA, is a conditioner who didn't play the game at a level. Not that the coach has skills either like. But of course we don't need assistants.

We have assistants, you just don't recognise them.

I have never suggested sacking Mcd, only a select few have,and why other fans think we should be sitting quiet and not discussing and alarming drop off this season and back to back home defeats to lower teams we should be beating comfortably is more baffling. I and many others on here can accept not being in the mix this year but the performances are more than worthy of question.

Davidson took preseason whilst the coach was peeing about thousands of miles away. The club told you we had assistants, you wouldn't know one if they smacked you in the face. If you did you would cotton on to reality.

So Eaton and Plume do nothing? Just because you act the "in the loop" on the internet doesn't actually mean you know as much as you like to pretend.

You can question McDermott's absence in terms of performance and tactics if you want. To link him beng in America for 2 weeks somehow being the reason behind fitness is stupid. The reason why they look more unfit is because quite a few have been unable to train and also because we are coughing up more ball and making ourselves do more defensive work compared to 12 months ago when we strolling to victories.
