Good point but he's had more money and better player's aswell!!

Blackwell was given money.

Not as much as he's had at sheff utd and the core squad is a lot better than what he had at our place.
The biggest game of the season and his tactic's and selection in cardiff were criminal imo.
The worst thing was watching the leeds fans fighting each other on the way out!!

Sheff United, apart from Jagielka and a couple of others more or less have the same squad they had in the premiership. Also Blackwells had money to spend and they have just got a load off West Ham. They are also still getting parachute payments!

blackwell did a great job until his last season when his old men ran out of legs

Agreed.

We had some belting players under Blackwell.

Craig Hignett?
Brian Deane?
Steve Guppy?
Kevin Pressman? Hahahaha.

Hignett and Pressman didn't get a game, but still, Ha!

Couldn't believe it when I came back from a holiday and went to ER and saw Kevin Pressman warming up.

'Who's that keeper there?'
'Kev Pressman innit...'
'Bollloooccckks!'
'It is, he came in when you we're on your jollys'

Fit.

did he have a choice?
no money, no players in a state of chaos.

both him and wise deserve far more praise that they got. the treatment wise got was disgraceful.
he paid players,like prutton,there wages out of his own pocket for 2 months while leeds were in administration just to keep them

Steve guppy muhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Deane played a blinder against QPR. Beat them 6-1 and he got 4. That was the single greatest moment in my life. Brian Deane scoring 4 goals.

England international.

Not that that means anything at all.

Carlton Palmer. Seth Johnson. Lee Bowyer.

I was at that game

i remember the post match interview

reporter to Brian Deane;- "some of the leeds fans were chanting Deano for England what do you have to say about that"

Brian Deane;- "Damn right "

Yes i remember some idiot commentator sayin he was the saviour of England when they didnt have a permanent left sided player

I only said Blackwell was a muppet cause he made biggest balls up of all time with the tatics in Cardiff

Just watch Sheff U if they get to the final, same will happen to them

I'll always remember that, it was on "the championship" the following morning!

Remember when they scored a minute in we all thought "here we go" but 5-1 at half time, and we missed a pen!

Remember he scored for us against Forest at ER in I think his only game for us!

They got a pen in the last minute and drew with us 1-1!

Ha. What a ledge. I remember going on a QPR messageboard a couple of days after and reading through a match day thread. They were chuffed with their start, obviously, but when Deane got his 4th I remember one bloke posting ' I don't f**king believe this' I laughed my titts off for an eternity.

They all had a massive hangover from the play off final defeat too, which strangley enough was very similar to what we experienced under Macca this season.

Also when we won that play off semi against Preston we were actually in relegation form. When Blackwell signed that new deal at the beginning of that February we hardly won a game and we still did enough to stay in the play off spaces. Thought we massively overachieved that season and when Wise came in the reason he had 2/3rds of the season left to go and still couldn't help us from relegation was because the players were well past it by then, just weren't interested and showed how good they really were!

I remember though that day that Ian Holloway was really ill and had discharged himself from hospital to be at the game. He still looked like t stood there at the game.

Either that had an effect on the game or Deano was just International quality that day!

I bet he felt like a sweaty pigs anus after Deane took them to the cleaners. They must have been really, really bad for Deane to score that many.

Yeah I was there it was one of those games where every time we had a chance on goal we seemed to score but we could have easily got a few more and we missed a penalty too. We weren't that good either, they were just really really poor. Probably explains why Deano got 4 goals!

Think even then if Deane got a goal past you, it would take all the other teams confidence away cos he was well past it by theen never mind getting 4 of them!

I wouldn't like to be a QPR fan. At all. Remember when they had that plastic pitch? That was funny.

Are you ready for their 80,000 seater stadium. Should be beast acording to a m8 of mine.
