You mean when we won the WCC, finished 2nd by 3 points and reached both finals?'" Unthinkable isn't it.
Mind you, for some, THIS record breaking season wasn't good enough because we didn't win the CC and the WCC as well. |

I was suffering post traumatic stress from the 1980's. For me it's like flashbacks for a Vietnam vet. All of a sudden I'm watching David Laws at Elland Road going in at the corner (and dropping the ball - but still "scoring"icon_wink.gif, or it's 1984 and Joe Lydon is gathering a kick and sweeping around Ian Wilkinson. I stopped counting at 9 semi-final defeats in a row. I have scars, I'm human, I'm occaisionaly weak.
Lager doesn't help either. |

reading shane webckes book and it's a great,interesting read. he states good coaches will allow top players to have the odd awful games and not worry whatsoever because when crunch time comes they will deliver.
a great read, get hold of it if you can

I might agree with that point of view....except in this case its Bywater / Eccelshill / Serge A. they are taking about  |

Rob Burrow and his team-mates amongst them.
Just as this record setting coach's rah rah methods had sadly worn off for some fans earlier in this record breaking season? |

seeing 2 yorkshire cups & 1 john player/regal trophy in 19 years hardly marks me as a glory hunter '"
Nice selective period you chose there but if you started supporting Leeds just after they won 2 challenge cups and a premiership that really does make you a glory hunter. Kapow!
Quote: doc-rhino "just not a hypocrite as per some'"
You evidently dont know what the word means glory boy.
BTW I took the liberty of tidying up your dreadful effort at quoting. Dont mention it. |

Let me summarise the position I have constantly taken throughout this season, as has been evidenced by historical links produced.
I expressed concern about discipline, I expressed support for the Board, the players and the coach, I expressed hope and belief that Mclennan would get us a title and I predicted a title much, much earlier than anyone else and I did it when things were bad, and not on the crest of a wave. I qualified that prediction by saying we would win the GF again if we sorted our discipline.
IIRC fanstanningley replied that I was making a big call. I was. I was right.
How about YOU? Do you want the opportunity to fess up what you posted throughout the season or shall we have a look at some links.?

And who was responding, reasonably, to bad defeats to Quins and Salford with this.

So come on, put your money where your mouth is and remind us of what you've been saying this season. Or would you like HHT or myself to do it? |

| Hey Gareth. This chap knows his stuff too.
Quote: Head High Tackle "ATEOTD we aint playing particularly well at the moment but it is April FFS. McClennan has a fair bit of work to do to get us ticking over again but there is plenty of time. To use a cliche, its a marathon not a sprint.
If McClennan can get us top of the pile and win the GF he'll already have done better than Smith in his first two years IMO (what does it really matter though, both have done very good jobs). If he doesnt win the GF then he will still be behind Smith and if we finish trophyless questions need to be asked.
However,I personally think we'll come out of this little slump and go on to win SL again and McClennan will turn out in the long term to be one of Leeds best ever coaches.
As Gareth says I never disliked Mcclenan, I simply wanted him to be judged the same as Smith was.'"
Salt of the earth, dyed in the wool. |

We have nailed our colours to the mast. Now lets see if Billy wants to nail his before we nail them for him.
