I was there H, that's why! LOL!! The game could still be playing now and it'd be 0-0! ;D Na, Wednesday would be 1-0 up by now. That's 13 league games now. I've seen Town beat Bury Town, so I class that as a moral victory. ;d

Because no-one even knows what the direction of the club is!!!! We've got Walter Mitty telling us he's got backers from all over the world and it turns out that one of the banks he told the press he was dealing with in the Dominica isn't even an operational bank! I'm less worried about Laws than I am about our board right now. I know it's difficult but all the more reason for some strong and purposeful leadership from the top surely? I've not really seen many comments aimed at inspiring and galvanising the team. Then again it could be worse, you could have Kevin "We played garbage tonight" Blackwell!! ;D ...Long balls, poor performances......I knew he'd stamp his personality on the Blunts eventually! ;D He's not really at the top though at the moment. Too many egos fighting for money and power instead of for the good of the club. I wish they'd all just sell up and fuck off to be honest. Especially Kaven Walker. I think the attitude in the team at the moment is that we're doing well compared to this time last season. Which is in all honesty how I'm feeling. If we can stay in mid table mediocrity while we sort out the shambles in the boardroom then I'm quite happy with that. I'm afraid ambition is just not even a reality right now. I'm sick of hearing Cocker-nee Kev on local radio. I'm thankful everyday that he's not our manager.

The problem with settling for mediocrity is a pretty awful state of affairs and quite dangerous too. Have the fans just grown apathetic about the whole situation now? I think that's the problem with Bates; many dislike him but he's so indifferent to the opinions of others that people are just accepting that we're stuck with him until he snuffs it or finds a tycoon. If only Bates was at Newcastle too.... ;D Blackwell is an utter waste of space, and when he gets money to spend then things just get worse.

Then why are you still Humberside Constabulary? I will never accept Hull as anything to do with Yorkshire!!!!! Ask the Humberside Constabulary. We're Yorkshire. We're the biggest club in Yorkshire currently! Get over it!!!!!

We don't have the money to buy better, we do have good players but they spend more time in hospital than an A&E nurse, and there is so much discord behind the scenes that I'm not suprised people don't want to invest or play for us. It's dragged on for so long now that apathy is bound to set in. Look at our crowds for example. We're down to 17,000 average now and that's not us. Due to personal finances this year and uncertainty of our direction we only sold 6000 season tickets. It's saddening to see my club in this state.

I just think that any club of any reasonable gravitas can at least still aspire for the play-offs at that level, albeit even that won't be for much longer with the cumulative impact of parachute payments. How's the youth system at Wednesday? I know you've got two very good centre backs, but anyone else emerging? All it needs really is a couple of key signings, a good loanee and some emerging youngsters on the fringe and a side can pick up some momentum.....young nearly sneaked the play-offs a couple of years back, were you really that much better than now? I think a lot of crowds are down markedly, they have been so far at Leeds, though charging £26 to go in the Kop to see Oldham, £22 for most other games does explain a lot too.....especially in this climate. I'm not sure how keen I am to see Leeds back in the Premier League at the moment. Without a billionaire I can barely see the point. Even the UEFA Cup places are more or less decided before a ball is kicked now.

The youth teams seem to have taken a step back. When we've had to have reserves on the bench this season they look woefully under par. Luke Boden we've just loaned out to Chesterfield and he looks scared stiff whenever he's on the pitch. Rocky Lekaj is the most one footed player I've ever seen and those too are the best of the best.

I think they've just made him mascot now so he can't do any damage.

Indeed. The idea is 2 fold. 3 fold if people die and there's more money to go round in the coffers. ;D
