| I actually agree sixth ish isn’t god enough, but it might be all we can realistically hope for this year we’ll find out.
Anything below that, as I’ve said if it isn’t down to a biblical injury list, RS should go.
If he can steer is into top half this year; and the club / GH will back another handful of ambitious signings, we might just go into next year with a spring.
In good news, most of the squad is still young enough to improve and benefit from pre-seasons; I feel like we have a natural improvement in us now. We just lack stars frankly.

| I'm still watching Leeds and wanting to see signs of recovery under RS; we need bodies back to do that.
However. He has left himself at risk of bad luck now: if Croft or one or two other key players gets injured, I don't think he'll survive the backlash from fans simply on the number of losses, and I think his recruitment has been too patchy so far.
I'm not sure Rowley is the right man to replace him if it happens, or if he would come. Demetriou is a potential candidate; his star was very high over there for a while, he knows the English game - maybe he would take the chance to rebuild his reputation at Leeds.
I'm also thinking Shaun Wane. I know people thought Wigan were boring under him but his record is pretty good - and what he is, arguably, is what we need for a young squad. He has faith in young lads but he's also disciplinarian and structured.
Ryan Carr is the other one who had a really good rep while he was here, spend a little time at Leeds before heading out down under again, never heard a bad word said about him but don't know if he'd come.
Interesting times anyway.

| From the outside looking in, the number of ex-players in administrative and coaching roles at Leeds looks questionable. Are these people in place on merit other than distant achievements on the playing field? I guess it is common at a lot of SL clubs.
