Newcastle have built from the back, as any management intent on success should do, the barcodes have conceded 32 goals in 36 games

Big Sam mentioned the importance of keeping clean sheets in his press conference this morning, he is obviously horrified with the 71 goals Leeds have conceded, is it any wonder why we are in the bottom three :oops:

You can always switch allegiance, for all your positive remarks about them, you miss the real reason they are on their uppers - Saudi money, even if they have invested wisely. The same Saudi’s who refused to increase oil production to alleviate the international barrel price which would have had a knock on effect at the pumps. Mountain can allude to the human rights issue.

No one blame’s their fans and to some, the criticism of their subsequent success may come across as sour grapes from Leeds fans. But it is a question of morals.

Is football more important than human rights. Based upon the last WC the answer for many is yes.

It's really quite alarming that some folk don't recognise that in the main football success is mainly related to money availability. Yes, in some cases with clever management and clever scouting...ie Brighton, the money factor can be overcome, something that we have miserably been lacking in.

I love ncastle as a city, had many great nights out there, some of my best hangovers have their origins in that city. Would I love their success, hell yeah. At that the human price they have to pay? F”ck no.

All I can say is I’m glad I don’t have that conflict to juggle in my head. Give me the clarity of conscience of the Championship any day.

And if anybody wants to pick a fight about the ethics of our poxy management team I say give it a go, I’m not in the mood.

No one with super wealth is going to buy Leeds, it’s not in the character of the club. we just get chancers, daydreamers and crooks , not sure yet which category the 49ers fall in to, probably chancers
