If your only criterion is winning tournaments then I'm afraid like the vast majority of supporters of most clubs then you are going to be sorely disappointed, personally I have been fairly happy with the national side the past few years, there won't be many countries looking forward to playing us this summer.

I'm not sure what you mean by achieving, a semi-final in the World Cup and a final in the Euros in the not-too-distant past, if you mean actually winning a tournament well yes we have not achieved, but only one team ever wins and the odds are pretty stacked against any team.

Any non-parachute payment club that makes it to the Premier League these days is something to be celebrated so well done if you do it, the playoffs are both thrilling and heartbreaking in well for us at least in equal measure, but if you gave me a chance guaranteed it must be a fantastic way to get a promotion.

Any praise has been through gritted teeth and always with caveats, he has said he will admit he was wrong if we carry on our form, but again I feel he will be looking for the slightest dip in form or results to revert to type, he has been almost non-stop moaning since manning started, and in my eyes at least has been myopic.

Ah! The old Italian jokes, well since you started it, what is the colour of the Italian battle flag? A white cross on a white background :laugh:.

If it goes wrong with Manning you will have every right to say I told you so, but I would hope that you would be brave enough to admit you were completely wrong if it goes well, my money is on you having to do the latter, I bet with us being the ONLY unbeaten Championship side in the last six games you are already thinking of ways of backing down because if we carry on being successful you will look a bit daft if you don't.

Klopp the flop.

Now where have I heard that before?

It's a decision I feel in time they may come to regret.

Well, you never know, this time they may have actually got it right, stranger things have happened.
-
And why haven't the results been bad? Have you ever thought that maybe the board knew the players they had and wanted in the future and maybe just maybe the man they chose could bring out the best in them by somehow relating to them and using a different way, how amazing would that be?

Well that didn't last long 1-1 -
I remember the infamous City v Chelsea FA Cup game, when they announced the "official" attendance the crowd laughed they actually laughed they later amended it up by quite a few thousand.

I could barely believe that but you were right 22nd April 1980 12,013.

I don't think we had many crowds of 16/17 thousand in the first division, some maybe towards the end of our time there when we were no longer competitive and pretty much nailed on for relegation, that last season, our average was around 23,000 the first 3 years and even 19,000 in our last season.

Unbelievable Geoff!! (sorry I couldn't resist:laugh:).

I wasn't comparing, just pointing out to the poster expecting us to beat Huddersfield that Leeds had lost at home to Blackburn, so read my post properly before having a go, yes a few of the performances have been a bit underwhelming but it's a results business and he is certainly currently getting them, if you think Manning is going anywhere fast you will be sorely disappointed. I think you will soon be another poster having to eat humble pie, just as a few on this forum have already started to backtrack. -

Ask the Leed fans how they feel playing a side recently they should easily beat, as the cliche goes there are no easy games in the Championship. -

And yet when we only pick up a couple of points over 5 games like we have at times we are doomed, going down, Manning is crap etc. -

Despite all the moaning about Manning I just had a quick look at the last 5 results for every team in the Championship and guess what we are top with 11 points, now tell me honestly if that was our previous manager's record over the last 5 games this forum would be dreaming of better times ahead, it's a results business and you can't say manning at last is not getting them.
