Leeds-I’ve never been prouder

As the disappointment of Wednesday fades, I’ve realised that I don’t think I have ever been prouder of my club than I am right now. Whilst I know we all wanted to be in the Premier League, but would any of us be disappointed with another season like this one (albeit with a different ending)? It has been magnificent. Superb football, sell out crowds and more importantly, the city united firmly behind the team. There has been a massive cultural change at the club, and for that we have to thank Radrizani, Orta and Bielsa. I’ve seen our owner get some stick, but, by and large he has done fantastic for this club. Not everything has worked and I’m sure he’d do some things differently, but he has the club at heart-same for Orta who has gone up hugely in my estimations. Finally, Bielsa.. what a man. He is a complete one off, an enigma and a genius. It is absolutely imperative that he stays..
Onto the team-again, I’ve seen some players get some right stick on social media, but they have played way above their level. They’ve bought in to what Bielsa has asked and I cannot fault one player for their effort. Every one, irrespective of ability has given it a go and should be proud of what they have done. No complaints in the media if left out, no moans about training or playing out of position, they’ve just got on with it-it’s a long time since a squad has been this together.


How many messages have you had on social media? I’ve had hundreds-from fans desperately celebrating our failings. Bottled it again, Falling apart, Gifs, cheats, scum.. the list goes on. Why? Cos we’re Leeds, cos we’re relevant, cos we’re hated.. and I love it..
