    Give over.

    They'll be straight back down with him at the helm. Can see the promoted clubs coming straight back down for the foreseeable future. Why you'd want Leeds to do well is beyond me mate :D

    I can agree for first part mate. Secretly its nice for ya mates. But really id prefer them being in league 1 with us to play them. Dont want them light years ahead of us. Having a laugh taking the piss with opposition fans is what makes football better

    We won't see Leeds again for decades (unless we draw them in the cup!), backing of Red Bull and the 49ers, plans approved to upgrade Elland Rd to over 56k, 20k on the ST waiting list. With all that in mind l wouldn't be surprised to see them back in Europe within the next 5 years.

    I'll bet my bottom bollock that won't happen. They have 5 major honours in their history, considering the size and 1 city club. Overrated :)

    Agree, their investment plans are unbelievable they'll spend big, the backing they have is huge, Leeds will not be a team that goes up and comes straight back down, can see Farke being sacked at the earliest opportunity, Red Bull are an aggressive company and don't do failure, think Burnley will give it a good go.

    I agree it would be fantastic if Leeds did the domestic treble next season. I'd w@nk myself dry.

    All the plastic Leeds fans are out in force, never seen so many Strongbow sponsored Leeds shirts since David Batty played for them.

    I think Burnley are more likely to stay up than Leeds. A side that’s well organised & can keep clean sheets is much better prepared for the top flight than sides that try to out score the opposition.

    We’ve seen that with three sides that were better than Leeds who all play a similar way.

    With kicking on & pushing for Europe it’s hard to imagine Leeds or any newly promoted side getting there whilst the current spending rules are in place.

    And even if they relax or scrap the rules there’s a queue of sides desperate to spend money who are starting from a much better place than Leeds like Newcastle, Villa, Everton, Man Utd etc

    I'm amazed these rules are legal.

    They'll only be able to spend so much in there 1st season. They're a massive club 200k at there parade apparently. Come along way from the days of 20k at Elland road treading water in the championship now they have a 20k waiting list for season tickets. Potential is massive.
