There's nothing mighty (and never has been) about being a fan. The clubs success/failure is not ours. I'll be going to the game in the hope that we maintain or improve last week's encouraging performance, win or lose, and that in turn we can build momentum for the rest of the season and more importantly next year. If you want to rant and rave about how terrible it all is I guess thats your perogative, but I think it's waste of your energy.
Hmmm, your’s is an opinion and mine is “ranting and raving”? Being happy about losing or just being competitive is not an objective assessment on the likely outcome of the game, it’s accepting second best against one of your rivals. We’re not London Bronco’s if you hadn’t noticed. If you pay a sparky to come into your home and the house burns down a couple of weeks later due to shoddy work ultimately it’s a failure for you. If you get a good guy and everything is hunky dory it’s a success for you. I don’t see how when a speccie pays good money to his club and they fail miserably the failure is not felt by the spectator, of course it is. My comment “how the mighty have fallen” was relating to the club, however your opinion that fans are not mighty couldn’t be further from the truth. Fans make or break a club, and if they all walk away there’s no club. If I see a bloke walking down Elland Road wearing a Leeds shirti in a few hours grinning like a madman when we’ve only lost by 12 points and “built a bit of momentum” I”ll know who it is.

Decent performances on show from Leyland then Farrimond. Can Sinfield follow, can we establish enough territory and posession to give him and Frawley a platform.
