We need a coach with experience, whether that be at the top level or as an assistant. Just look at Cunningham at Saints, even Powell when he took the Leeds job, it takes time to become a good coach, and we need someone from outside the club to come in and rebuild us.

Why when we spend full salary cap is our squad so weak
IMO it is unbalanced with no leadership and direction expensive underperforming players directed by young inexpensive inexperienced players it can't work problem now with the system is it can take 2 to 3 years including this to turn around
Start now with new leadership needs to come from above.

Every last penny will be being pinched from every area to build the new stands.

Noticed prices creeping up around the ground? The cheaper material / design of the off field gear? The playing fields at kirkstall left and not sorted?

Unless someone with a bucket of cash turns up and offers a Carnegie style deal for the stands get used to this for a while.

The club has been penny pinching throughout Macs reign.To be fair to the guy, he has never had the luxury of bringing in big names, the club hasn't signed one since Buderus at the turn of this decade.

2016 the worst season the club has endured in recent memory and we bring in 2 championship projects, unbelievable.






What you looking at?....Butt Head!!

It's no longer possible to buy your way out of trouble due to a dwindling salary cap, a broken transfer market with little movement and a distinct lack of quality players available. These conditions have prevailed for quite some time. In fact, Leeds as one of the top clubs have benefited from those stagnant conditions during the last decade as it's nigh on impossible for other clubs to catch up quickly and compete.

I don't believe Leeds are in danger of doing a Bradford, but they may well be looking at a longer transition period than originally anticipated. It may be quite some time until they are consistent Top 4 title contenders again. The quickest route back is to unearth academy talent but it's gone a bit stale at the club on that front in recent years.

Good luck with the likes of Golding, Sutcliffe, Lilley and Co but they don't inspire me with any confidence about the future direction Leeds are heading in.

You are right about the academy. From being the ansolute best in superleague at producing talent we are now second division at best! i believe its a major contributor to out current problems. Someone took their eye off the ball and rested on their laurels in that respect
