SiJ Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 It's 1 game innit. I think we all know we are in the sh*t. Might want to hold back a bit before we start hailing Leeds as a model club. Just a thought... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all a very confusing mess. Maybe we'll get an insight tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109Waddle Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Leeds will bottle it again. Don’t forget they and sufc were near the top of the league at the start of last season and look where they finished. Remember a few people on here creaming over them and wilder this time last season too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUMBELOWS91 Posted August 5, 2018 Author Share Posted August 5, 2018 Just realised how much Tom Ince looks like Connor Benn- aren't Paul Ince and Nigel Benn cousins? Has someone's Mrs been playing an away fixture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul.. Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 13 minutes ago, RichSheffWeds said: Leeds sold their star midfielder for £7.7m this summer too. And their chairman gave an interview about it where he was extremely open and honest about it and came across really well, "if" Bannan or Forestieri go this week will we get the same? Doubt it.

Aingarth Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I am no lover of Leeds, in fact I prefer the red piggies to Leeds. But they both look as though they know what they are doing commercially and we do not compare well with them. Whether they end up succeeding on the pitch we will see. There are are all the hallmarks of 1997-2000 at Hillsborough. We have seriously overspent on average players who have not fitted in and not delivered. And this has driven up the wage bill for our good players. That is where FFP really comes in and it is the club’s fault. Whether it is FFP or the Chairman running out of cash I don’t know. But we seem to have taken the route of making things expensive rather than going for volume which I believe is a massive mistake. £90 for club membership to get £5 off a match ticket and cheap replica shirts which do not compare well with Nike or Adidas but still on sale at £59.99 and OTD tickets equalling the most expensive in our league.

Ground full, replica shirts galore, proper shirt sponsor, advertising boards constantly rotating proper sponsors. Forgetting the football and the fact this season they have hired a proper manager and spent some money- why have we chosen to go down such a different route re all the above?

I'm.asking why/how they've managed to.sell all their tickets and advertising space and shirt sponsorship - and why weve decided to either make our prices so prohibitive or not try (e.g. 'sell'it to Chansiri and his brands) I'm curious as to whether DC has injected the kind of revenues via this route that Leeds are raking in. If he has then fair play- that would explain everything 're D Taxis etc- A lot of people are presuming this is what the brands are all about, and I'm wondering if it's reflected in the accounts. Nothing to do with what they've spent on the pitch. I'm wondering if the EFL legal people have seen straight through D Taxis, Elev 8 ,BK latex etc etc!!

To be fair, DC has definitely tried to actually create legitimate business out of both Elev8 and D Taxis. They just haven't materialised yet due to a few teething troubles. That's my understanding of it anyway. Not sure about BK Latex- isn't that some sort of balloon company? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People were championing what Leeds had done, sold key players in two windows making a profit without reinvesting then go again.

Athelwulf Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Leeds are like the Blades, in that they have a good youth policy. They must have raked in tens of millions over the years in player sales. It's only just over a year since they flogged Wood for £15 mil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
