    I don't blame Sam for anything. He came in and gave it his best. He didn't petition for the job. He was asked to do it, and it's not his fault that he didn't have the answer within only 4 weeks of football.

      Fat Sam is disgusting, shameless and a fraud. He is sitting there doing the interview nonchalantly, smirking, like the Leeds job was a hobby. After talking himself up as one of the best football managers in the game and let's face it, he's nowhere near the top 1000, he failed miserably, he had 4 games to get 5 points, instead he got 1 point from possible 12 points. Two of those games were winnable- West Ham and Tottenham. West Ham rested most of their first team for that match and Spurs were at the beach and half arsed to play in the Europa Conference league. Instead they lost 1-4 to a Spurs side led by rookie Ryan Mason.
      I read a lot that 4 games wasn't enough time for Fat Sam to save Leeds, as an experienced manager you would know before taking the job whether the games are winnable or not. Your football knowledge and apparently Fat Sam has a lot, would have helped you assess if you can keep Leeds up. Well, he was arrogant and greedy enough to take the job and failed spectacularly. He clearly has no pride in protecting his reputation, that's last two jobs where he's relegated a team.
      I wish Fat Sam reads this. You're not very good, it's all in your head Sam, you're a laughing stock amongst football fans. Good riddance and hope we never see you manage a football team again.

    It's not Sam's fault we were relegated, the damage was already done but there's nothing in those 4 performances that suggests he should continue in the Championship. Also bollocks that he would've kept us up if he got the job when Gracia did. Gracia got 11 points out of 12 games, Big Sam got 1 out of 4, fair enough he had harder fixtures but even so we were hardly competitive in them

Remember the time Pogba got 4 assists and he still said Pogba didn't have a good game. Not everyone wants the dry and obvious punditry of some pundits. Alan Hansen is another example, great player, even worse than Souness as a pundit. "He's got two good feet and he's good in the air" - Hansen's repeated line EVERY MOTD, sometimes 2 or 3 times a show. Whereas someone like Jill Scott is an OK pundit and doesn't have a stick up her arse. Also, Roy Keane was decent as a pundit, mostly for his blatant honesty, but now that he's got Micah beside him, they're incredible together. Not everyone wants boring and obvious observations.

    At the end of the day, the team just didn't have enough quality. Tyler Adams being the lone exception along with the goalkeeper. Adams literally kept Leeds in nearly every game he played, and once he was injured the damn gave way to the flood so to speak. For example, prior to Adams' injury, the defense normally gave up at least 1 or 2 easy goals per game, but if they had had 1 or 2 better defensive players, they would have tied or won ALOT of close games. The team was truly "competitive" in the first have of the season.

    Complete shambles of a season for us, a chairman MIA, a DoF signing any player from USMNT, sending quality loan players out to accommodate that, allowed Klich to leave on 195 appearances, poor defending, a goalkeeper whose positioning steadily got worse and the complete inability of some players to find the back of the net. Sam did what he could and there was an overall change in the players performance, but we just lacked the quality where needed and that was a common theme right across the season dropping 25 points from winning positions in games and concerning a record number of goals tells the story. I for one, would be happy to put Sam in charge next season, he knows the game inside out and he managed to get the team to show a bit of unity towards the end, plenty of work to do and I hope the Chairman will get down to business now A.S.A.P. and get our club running again!

    Looking back to Big Sams appointment (I never agreed to it), where the team was, it's problems on the field, awful recruitment by Orta, and the board who lived the dream but had no clear vision, it was a car crash that had culminated to the point when Big Sam took the reigns it was over for Leeds, two of the last four fixtures were games we could not win (even if we played out of our skin!), only one was a possible draw and one a possible win with that team at that particular time, and the teams body language was very evidently negative. The damage had been by done Marsch mostly (and Orta and the board), and Gracia (he started well)he had no answers and by the time Big Sam showed up it would take a miracle of biblical proportions to keep them up, I don't blame him, and at that time I doubt there were many willing managers who would have come in knowing that there would be a very high chance of failure and damage that could be inflicted on their reputation. We can question the fee he received, and if the gamble had succeeded? It's very easy for everyone to look on the situation from the outside, but what happens when you are on the inside? how do you motivate the players, who did not want to play even for their own pride never mind the club! We are in a better place now with good owners, players who are playing for the club and hungry, and a chance to reach the promised land, MOT Leeds!
