What On Earth Is Going On At Leeds United?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 май 2023
- Two years ago, Leeds United finished 9th in the Premier League, coming within three points of qualifying for Europe, a year after winning the Championship title, playing an exhilarating brand of football under Marcelo Bielsa.
Since then, Leeds have burnt through three managers - Bielsa, Jesse Marsch, and Javi Gracia - they have become embroiled in two relegation scraps, and the feel-good factor at the club has been destroyed.
In light of the appointment of Sam Allardyce, just 14 months after Bielsa was sacked, HITC Sevens takes a look at the rise and fall of Leeds United and exactly what has gone wrong at Elland Road.

Great video Alfie - couple of things to note to supplement:
- Bielsa's wages when hired were so big because he pays his backroom staff out of his own pocket
- Jack Harrison first came in Bielsa's first season
- Dallas was not well thought of before Bielsa came
- Rasmus Kristensen only cost about £10m
So if he is being given a huge wage to pay his backroom staff, then their wages are basically still basically being paid by the club no? Like if I gave you 500 to go buy something, you can't say ''I bought this with my own money''
@@benlane7282 no as the club would also normally pay them but not count them as the head coach salary
I do miss Bielsa, Leeds was always a guaranteed 6 points with him😂
@@benlane7282 The figures aren't reported seperately - it was just reported as Bielsa's wage even though a big chunk of that wage was going to his staff.
Hi friend! Fancy seeing you here! You missed one, which is Ayling was well thought of prior to Bielsa joining, especially in the Monk 7th placed season! Aside from that, you’re correct and it was a great video despite its length! (Man, we’ve suffered a lot)
I'm still upset at Bielsa's dismissal, he deserved to leave in a much better way than he did. The guy is a legend, he didn't just bring leeds back he reunited a city. I would have him back in a heartbeat
Relegation with Bielsa would have been infinitely preferable to everything we have seen since.
@@daniellamie3033 I think if they get relegated with bielsa, they will go back up at most after two seasons in the championship, but now if leeds get relegated idk if they are gonna back up again
@@kevinhanandi Mr. Bielsa was the best of all time, he did a lot out of nothing, they shouldn't have removed him...
@@kevinhanandi this idea that If Leeds went down with bielsa, he'd have stayed to bring them back up is nonsense he was leaving either way
The whole of football feels for bielsa. The ghandi/Mandela of football management. A inspiration to so many!
As a long time Leeds supporter, i thought that was fair enough. The only addition would be a mention about the sale of Elland Road. The ground was sold as part of the financial meltdown and it was brought back by Radrizzani. Which i think be deserves some credit for. One of the problems as i saw it with Radrizzani & Orta was they where always looking into the future and ignoring the present.
He doesn’t deserve any credit for that. We don’t own the ground. Rarizanni’s company does. We pay rent on the stadium!
Leeds pay 1.7m a season to play at Elland road and it was brought for 15 million
Speak of the Bielsa Championship days brought a tear to my eyes, the most magic days I’ll never experience again, we were truly untied, the soul and everything Marcelo built has now being destroyed, I will forever miss Marcelo. The love of my football life.
Felt that in my soul
lol
Mr. Bielsa was the best of all time, he did a lot out of nothing, they shouldn't have removed him...
Man, they were insane to watch when Bielsa was in charge, win or lose
either win 5-0 or lose 5-0 :D
Honestly I wanna know what’s going on at Everton and Southampton as well
Everton is surely an episode waiting to happen.
@@soundscape26 As an Everton fan I was expecting one at the end of last season. At this point you could make a 6-part series on just our club 😅
Leicester City as well
@@mafcgh as little as 6😅 tbf i was surpized there wasn't one for aston villa bk in the 2014/2015 season
@@brucesmith1695 now ur going down, going down, going, going *DOWN* 😹
The likes of Leeds, Forest, Wednesday,, Derby, Everton and Villa who were staples of the premier league in the 90s just can’t compete with the mega clubs any more. I always felt these clubs were unlucky in that they were successful before the technological boom in the late 90s and early 00s which would have made them more marketable. Man United having their most successful period at this time meant that these clubs just got left behind and whilst the likes of United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool became brands and the formerly mentioned clubs got left behind. I suppose the emergence of Man City and Newcastle somewhat disprove this theory but they needed a hell of a backing to compete. As for Spurs, well Spurs are a curious case.
spurs is a london club, that could have contributed to their success
London is a huge attraction to players in this day and age. It didn’t matter as much back in the day.
newcastle were quite good back in the 9-'s under kevin keagan and of course blackburn rovers they wou'd be another example and they actully won the premiership aston villa seem to be coming back a bit
Add Coventry to that list
@@francolive5718 exactly there's a reason clubs like Brentford, Brighton and Fulham have risen from almost nowhere, a player would rather live in those places than Birmingham, Derby or Leeds for example
Alfie this is two videos on our awfully run club in just over a week! It's like I'm happy to see a new upload, just for it to be a reminder that we're absolutely shambolic at the moment...
Please can we have one of these on Wigan. Since winning the FA Cup we’ve played in Europe in the championship and reached the semis of the FA Cup the in consecutive years, been up and down between League 1 and Championship. Gone into administration, come within a point of being relegated to League 2, then promoted the following season to paying wages late several times and appointing a disaster our manager in Kolo Toure.
What’s telling is that last season, Leed’s had one of the worst defense in the entire league. Then during the summer transfer window last year…they purchased a single “defender” in Rasmus Kristenson.
Leeds will have 4 different managers this season, but one thing that barely changed is the defense. Add to that the season ending injury of Tyler Adams, who did so much to break up opposition play in the midfield, it was a recipe for disaster.
You know your in trouble if you think Sam Allardyce is the man to save your decline!
Exactly what I needed to get through late night final exam work. Thanks again Alfie
Leeds are never ever dull!
There is a RUclips channel called Leeds the wilderness years 75-89! It is brilliant, if you like Leeds or even if you don’t like them you’ll love these documentaries.
Footage, music, recordings and newspaper headlines
It sums up the state of English football at this time.
Speaking as a Carlisle United fan I have massive respect for Leeds fans.
In league one their fans filled our place.
Great fans!
Nice to see a fellow Cumbrian in the comments. I'm more a Workington Reds fan but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt 😉
@@jimmycburfield5997 what a small world it is. COYR!
Could you do a video on how Swansea City went from the 4th to the 1st division then all the way back down to the 4th in just 9 years
Honestly, I wonder whether this cycle that seems to be the case, where clubs outside the top 6 having relative inconsistency over a period of several years by dropping up and down swiftly - which has already happened to Everton and Leicester, and may be the case for Brighton - is a real issue within English football
Word
It's absolutely the case. Three teams have to go down, and given the big 4 became 6, and soon 7 with Newcastle, there will be 7 clubs essentially immune to relegation, they may have off years but they won't go down.
That means there's a smaller amount of "comfortable" spots in the league left, everyone else is just circling the drain waiting their turn to drop. One bad transfer window will ruin years of progress.
The other aspect is that the idea of being a "well run smaller club" eg Brighton is more well known now, it's not a novelty. Even supposedly well run clubs like Southampton are at risk, Swansea went down despite everyone cheering their management on for years.
Clubs like Stoke and Sunderland bludgeoned their way to 10 years in the PL with bad management but that would never fly now, even the good clubs are at risk.
Great as always Alfie - would love to see a career retrospective on Rory Delap and his throwing ability, including statistics compared to goals from crosses in those seasons
I can remember when Rory Delap played for Carlisle
The recent comments by Allardyce is actually a fantastic piece of man management. Immediately puts all the attention on himself and takes it off the players, which is exactly what they need.
As a non Leeds fan i was astonished when they sacked Bielsa and am now enjoying their hopeful decline.
Leeds are living rent free in your head I see!
There was a time that Leeds United were touted as potential champions of England back in the early 2000s during the period when they were playing in the CL regularly and reached the semi finals at one stage but of course their financial meltdown came not long after that and they have never recovered since then and have been left way behind the current elite of the game
If Leeds had a better manager at the time they would likely have won the league eventually. David O'Leary had a star studded team and didn't even win anything.
They were only in the CL for one season
they came 4th in 2001 the season after that 4th was made a champions leauge spot
@@purpledragons1146Jesus there's a name from the past. Wonder whatever happened to David O'Leary?
@@CrackaPackify The only team he managed other than Leeds was Aston Villa where he did shocking as well. I can't believe there's some Leeds fans who actually still like O'Leary.
Love watching your videos! So informative and researched so well
As an Everton fan I live each day in fear for when our video gets released but at least I can take comfort in the fact it will be well made.
Fun fact: Leeds is the largest city in Europe that doesn't have an underground, tram or monorail network. Do with this info what you like.
Shows how underfunded Yorkshire and the North in general is
Hi Alfie I would suggest you do a how to fix or how run a specific football club in the perfect way. From the manager they should hire and the players they should sign. Love your vids :)
Hi Alfie. Always enjoy your what is wrong with videos. It was what got me into your channel in the first place.
As a fan of serie A, looking forward to What is wrong with Genoa and Sampdoria. Both of them once proud clubs but now one of them is dead last in Serie A with almost certain relegation, the other even though 2nd in Serie B, was struggling in Serie A for several seasons before getting relegated last season. 😊
Alfe, good video as usual about Leeds United. Cool video and shout out to you for doing this.
Not sure how you do it Alfie but compelling content every episode. Cheers from a football know nothing from Australia.
My club is in turmoil unfortunately but we have been through worse and will come back stronger again. MOT
Love this mate thankyou MOT
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!!
Glad Ken Bates gets a mention, he did do the most intriguing thing in the history of English football, put up electric fences at Stamford Bridge...
By all accounts that was to stop the players leaving
@@iandawe948 To be fair, in that Chelsea team, I would want to leave as a player.
Excellent content Alfie!👏
Loved this video Alfie
could you please make a video on SK Brann from Norway. the last five and a half years has been a true rollercoaster, including: losing the league title against rivals Rosenborg and facilitate Erling Haalands breaktrough in the same season (he scored 4 goals in 25 minutes agaist them, when they were unbeaten and top of the table), a complete collapse, internal turmoil, a scandal of pretty decent proportions, relegation afterone of the craziest games i've ever seen (6 goals and 1 red card in extra time, fell out on penalties), to being one of the hottest teams in Norway, obliterating every second tier record, reaching the norwegian cup final, being the better team against massive league favourites Bodø-Glimt and beating perennial league bullies Rosenborg in the span of 8 days (all 3 on the road).
Great video and it’d be perfect if you also mention their spectacular rebranding with club crest
I thought that "Leeds days" came from a South Korean documentary about Park ji-Sung during his time at Manchester United, and was more about the decline in form of Alan Smith since leaving Elland Road than of the club itself
You're absoultely correct
Great video as always Alfie! Just seen Watford plan to honour Frank Soo, his life and career might make a good video idea!
As a Leeds supporter, sacking Bielsa was wrong, sacking Jesse Marsch was egregiously wrong, and Javi Gracia is the worst manager in Premier League history. I’m just hoping for a miracle with Big Sam
One can only guess what has yet to come out when this season is over… the half time changing room vs palace holds an untold story….
One of them will spill the beans at the end of the season, probably Mckennie or his mate. Going to be a juicy story I hope because fans deserve an explanation!
Point about Leeds City - the 'pressure' applied by Port Vale on the inquiry to get Leeds expelled from the FL, so they could take their place, having failed to be accepted to the FL the previous season.
The same could apply to Chelsea who really are in freefall and if they had any less points on the board could genuinely be embroiled in a relegation battle but since Frank Lampard has taken control they have lost all their matches and are on course for their worst ever EPL campaign things aren't good there at all
I sometimes think the fsg are a bunch of pricks for not spending so much in the transfer market but after looking at chelsea this season and then leeds united or everton before I think it's a blessing in disguise that they are very stingy with their budget.
Lank Frampard...
He's really burned ANY possibility of future EPL management now...he'll have to do it thru the lower tiers if anybody will have him...
@@jimbob-robob good players very rarely make good managers
@@jimbob-robob that's kinda sad tho
Also Leicester City. Their downfall is just as sad, probably even worse than Leeds as they were the ultimate underdog story back in 2016.
Love this series, I know it's not a club in the worst position in context of others, but the downfall of Spurs from Poch to no DoF and manager and no direction would be a good deep dive
No one gives a shit about spurs though 😂😂😂.
Tbh, as an outsider looking in. There is no " downfall" really.
Yes they got to a champions league final but other than that is just been business as usual. Not winning anything, Audi Cup doesn't count either. Middlesbrough have more domestic trophies in my lifetime for example.
Leicester City is a much better candidate than Spurs.
not really a downfall though. Just continuous underachieving based upon their investments in managers and players, resources & facilities. Champions League final was a moment of overachieving for which they didn't even show up for. They need to reach heights before you start calling 6/7th place underachieving.
hi alfie i really like your videos they are very informitive could you do one on the rise and fall of blackburn rovers premier leauge champions in 95 into nothing now and also and the fall and rise of ac milan thaks
Good stuff Alfie! 👍🖖✊️
Great video, really thorough but so depressing, can’t believe how cursed we are, should have been one of the big 6 but just seem to go from one disaster to another.
as an OM we will always remember Bielsa very very fondly..bielsa has this magic effects on many ordinary players...making them extraordinary..Bielsa did the same with OM, we finished leaders of the half way season then dropped to 4 th at the end to to physical fatigue
How do you feel about Tudor?
Your tweet got serious traction. Funnily enough, I only found your channel last night, but I came across your tweet in the wild and left a comment. Only making the connection now because I recognized your screenshot in the video 😂
An incredibly researched, reasoned and well-balanced video. Amazes me how a neutral can see the faults in the board whilst a lot of our fans will still give excuses. Bielsa to Allardyce in 14 months, alongside the arrogance and ego driven signings shows how we've wasted all the potential from that 9th place finish.
Loved this vid. For an extra layer of context it's worth mentioning that the 49ers have been purchasing an increasing stake in the club over the years. There's an option to take full ownership which expires next January which they are likely to exercise in the summer but it is only valid if we're still in the Premier League. Orta has been sacked primarily because of the disastrous turn the club has taken post Bielsa and bringing Big Sam in is Radrizzani's one last throw at the dice on securing his payout, so that he doesn't have to spend more money trying to get us back out of the Championship. It's a situation largely of his own making, but in that context it's understandable why we've gone with Big Sam for now.
Class video that; very balanced.
I'll never forget when Bielsa laid it out in detail for half an hour how the opponent was scouted 😂truly epic - just as epic as that Austrian Wunderteam video will be 😇✌.
Great video! Small point - I think "Leeds days" refers to the decline of Alan Smith rather than Leeds United. As in when he was at Man United you could lament at how much better a player he had been in his Leeds days.
Big Sam's the man for the last four games buddy MOT great vid tho really enjoyed it. About to get smashed by city so it's got me buzzed ready for the game lol
Top video 👌
Let's see if Big Sam can pull off another heist 👀
Rudderless Leeds remind me of rudderless Palace, except Palace never had an inspiring Bielsa-like manager. They just muddle along hiring random managers without an overall philosophy or plan. It’s remarkable really that Palace has been in the PL for so long. They don’t do anything better than Leeds or clubs that have been relegated recently.
At least, during Cellino's tenure, he signed alot of good players, the majority of Bielsa's promotion side were signed under Cellino, plus he signed Chris Wood who became league's top scorer and sold by Radrizzani to Burnley (and replaced with the terrible Lassoga, an early sign of things to come), Pontus Jansson and Kemar Roofe, also players signed by Cellino sold by Radrizzani to cover losses created by Radz himself on a crazy amount of u23's bought from different clubs of europe most of them still to play a minute of first team football 5 years later. Also Cellino sorted a financial nightmare inherited from the GFH fiasco, refunded the season ticket holders for not achieving promotion in 2017. His weakness was the inability of appointing a good head coach (even Garry Monk who did a "good" job in Leeds standards was terrible), and the fetish for creating controversy at every minute.
How was Lassoga terrible? He might have had some bad games, but he certainly wasn't a failure
That first PL table is mad. 10 points separating Liverpool in 6th and Palace in 20th...
In 04-05 season, the same anomaly happened in Italy. Roma only finished 8th with 45 pts, but ONLY 3 POINTS above the 18th-placed (and relegation zone) Bologna with 42 pts.
I remember the Leeds team of the late 90's/early 2000's. They were awesome.
4th request: @HITCSevens Idea for episode: the 7 players currently playing in the lowest division in England to have played (or still playing) senior international football. Eg Knory Scott plays for Bermuda + Hastings Utd (level 7); Anthony Jeffrey plays for Guyana + Billericay Town (7).
Fun Fact: The first season of the Premier League was such an intense. First, Manchester United somehow ended the 26-years of league drought after an awful start in the first half, including the first two league defeats over Sheffield United and Everton, but then recovered with a big signing of Eric Cantona. Traditional teams like Arsenal and Liverpool ended up in disastrous season, finishing below Aston Villa and Norwich City. Last, but not least, Leeds United, who were the reigning champions, only finished 17th and 2 points ahead of Crystal Palace, but it's not considered as embarrassment because they were only 8 points behind Liverpool, who ended up 6th.
I think the 04-05 Serie A was even more fierce in terms of bottom half. Roma finished 8th with 45 points, but only 3 ahead of Bologna, who ended up being relegated (18th). This was even surprising because the club had won the Scudetto 4 years earlier.
Man is a content machine
Can you please do a video on my team Ipswich Town. We're going through somewhat of a transition right now, having just been promoted back to Championship. You'd find plenty to talk about both historically but also from this season.
The video I didn't know I needed until I saw the title 😵😵
Great video Alfie. Could you do a similar video on my Club Everton who are run equally as bad as Leeds if not worse?
Great video on Leeds, Alfie! I sure do miss ol' Marcelo...Now, when are you coming out with that Best XI from sub-Saharan African clubs?
I'm looking forward to a video on Queens Park FC. Possibly the most interesting story in world football. One of the first clubs, revolutionised the way the game is played, stayed amateur when the rest of the sport went professional. Them turns professional and quickly shoots up the Scottish Leagues. If they win tomorrow night they will be in the top flight for the first time in many years. (The first international game was basically Queens Park v England)
If they get promoted, will they return to playing in the gigantic stadium?
@@ThreeRunHomer financially speaking, wouldn't be a bad idea if they could move the home games against Celtic and Rangers to big Hampden. More or less guaranteed sellouts or at least huge crowds, if they still play each other 4 times a year in Scotland then be worth a few million a season. Probably need to stay at liitle Hampden for the other teams though.
If they kept Marsh they would definitely have more points then they currently do, they sacked him right before their easiest 3-4 game stretch.
Been waiting for this since Big Sam's appointment 😅
Truly feel for Leeds fans after watching this one. The club really deserves more competent management.
this reminds me of tom thibodeau's bulls about 10 years ago.. a coach loved by the fans.. saw insane improvements in his squad upon his arrival (didn't hurt derrick rose coincided with his arrival) and developed a very hard working culture (some would say too hard working at times) and inspired championship aspirations for the bulls for the first time since Jordan played there. it's unfortunate our front office was lead by the GarPax monster that was easily one of the most disappointing and frustrating front offices in the league ever since they lost Jordan and drove out many other superstar players
Defending and half-decent goalkeeping is certainly one think that is not going on at Leeds United....
A hard-hitting video, but a fair assessment. The mis-management of Leeds United has been happening for close to 50 years so it's obvious that the problems will not be solved overnight. It was a miracle that we avoided relegation last year; I don't see another one in the next few weeks. Leeds United will return to greatness, it's just going to take a long, long time.
Can you do a video about the Rise and Fall of South African Football. They were AFCON champions in 1996 now they can not even qualify.
They had players in Premier League the likes of Lucas Radebe now not a single player
The problem of leeds Is the one who fired March and brought Gracia, while March on charge I enjoy to watch the games, but Gracia team plays worse within the time.
If leeds save the category, which I see I very complicated the way they play hope they fire Gracia.
You should do a video on Wolves in the glory days (40s, 50s, 60s) when they pioneerd European football with Real, Benfica and Honved, and built the original Busby Babes whilst winning leagues and cups.
I feel like in England, there is a tendency to ignore football before 1966, and as a result guys like Billy Wright doesnt get as much attention as he should.
The reason I thought of Wolves is that their owners have also borrowed a lot of money against this and next seasons Prem TV money, so things could have gone very wrong if relegation had happened this season.
Some context to Leeds' infamous early 2000s decline: on New Years' Day 2002, they were top of the Premier League. Their next game was in the FA Cup against Second Division Cardiff, and they lost 2-1. They failed to win any of their next seven league games, slumped out of the top four, and remained outside it for the rest of the season. The rest is history.
Not a Leeds fan but wasnt there an issue with Johnathan Woodgate getting arrested in a nightclub brawl at the time which didnt help.
@@iamtnarea1503 Yep, I think his trial was going on at about the same time, so that was a factor as well.
What you said about Leeds being the the 4th biggest city in the UK, but unusually with only one club. All the football merchandise, shirts etc and tickets go to one club ,one stadium not two. Leeds should be one of the biggest teams in the premier league and Europe. I'd like to see some massive football fan mega rich tycoon see the potential of Leeds being a big city with just one team and buying it at championship prices and investing heavily in the team and stadium, like we have seen with other (even smaller) clubs over the Last 20 years. But I totally agree with your assessment that Leeds biggest enemy is Leeds itself.
Next suggestion- What on earth is going at Leicester City?- From the ultimate underdog PL Champions to likely going back to the Championship again.
Default turmoil! However there’s the essence of being a fan.
Ups and downs
Chaos and joy
Calamity and camaraderie
Glory comes in being there and watching the wheels of fortune turning
I’d love one on Blackburn
Sure they’ve just finished 7th this season and 8th last season but their fans have been told they have no money
they keep charging a ticket price like they’re still in the prem
The Steve kean era
The relegation season
Mowbray’s time at the club
And of course the venkys
I reckon it would make an interesting video
Update Steve waggott has upped the adult ticket prices from £380 to £430 and is supposedly gonna raise them again come the end of the month
Coventry fans warned our fanbase and half of them didn’t listen
Your deadpan sarcasm is fantastic 😂
I always had a soft spot for Leeds. It is sad to see them going backwards on their own success... On another point, can we please have a video about Maltese Football please? Thank you
😅
That was a hard watcg it's taken me 3 months to watch it Jesus what a mess we was left after bielsa went he was mislead so bad he said the team would burn out after the 3rd season and radz and co would have to replace them ir replace him what a set of rats 🐀 to then blow a budget on dr feelgood jesse after getting rid of the best thing to happen to us i just hope Mr Bielsa knows just how much he truly meant to us leeds fans through the good the bad and the ugly i always had faith in him mot.
Alfie, would you consider make two separate videos that go more in-depth about
1.Corrine Diacre’s controversial/toxic tenure as the manager of France’s Women’s National team which lead her to get sacked last month
and
2.The alleged attack on Kheira Hamaroui by her own former PSG Teammate Aminata Diallo) into this video
hey Alfie, I was wondering if you could do a What On Earth... about Independiente in Argentina. Situation got so bizarre that their last hope remains under a fundraising campaign led by an Instagram influencer...
When you think about it big Sam saying he’s on a level with arteta etc was quite smart cos since he’s done that all the headlines have gone away from our players being wank (which obviously doesn’t help confidence) and onto him.
Should do one of these on Wigan Athletic. Ten years ago won the FA Cup...
The top 4 of the Premier League is now virtually a closed shop, or at least there are 7 mega-rich clubs battling for 4 spots. There is the odd exception, such as Brighton that might sneak into the top 7 when one of the rich clubs (eg Chelsea) are having an off season. Predictably, the vultures (agents from the rich 7) are now circling to snatch Brighton's best players, so they can use them as squad players/substitutes and maintain the status quo at the top.
As for the other 13 PL teams, there are maybe 4 battling for 8th place and the other 9 just aiming to stay in the PL so they can rake in the cash.
It is all so predictable, that I seriously think there should be a trophy for 8th place, as it is now the highest possible finish for ordinary clubs (outside the rich 7).
Maybe another trophy could be awarded for finishing 17th, as it has become such a big deal for many clubs.
Breaking news: I have just heard that the PL are going to present Manchester City with two trophies next week. One for the season that is drawing to a close and also the 2023/24 PL title. It will save the hassle and formalities of a lot of one-sided matches and will avoid their star players getting injured. The other 19 teams will play 36 matches next season and will all have 2 defeats against their name when the season kicks off
It makes a lot of sense.
Regardless of what you think of "Big Sam", to be offered 500k per game and if they stay up an extra 2.5 mil, that's not bad going for less than a months worth of work and they're still easily in with a shot of staying up as Everton and Forest aren't exactly er... Pulling up any trees 😅😮😅.
I'd give it a go if it was me, anyway good video.

Stuff like this worries me so much about the future of west brom
Why on earth the EFL let our owners borrow £25 million with 15% interest, I dont know
The loan has been secured against our ground, club trademark and training facilities, and cannot be paid back unless we do the unthinkable on Monday and scrape a playoff place followed by an even more unlikely 2 leg win over Luton, and finally win a luck of the draw final at Wembley at the end of the month
Safe to say I do not think we'll be a championship club for very long
Worst of all, this loan was taken out to cover day to day running costs of the club (not to cover transfers), while the owner still owes the club £ 20 million in unpaid loans to cover his other business's costs due to losses during covid
Even though I became a Leeds fan during Bielsa time, I understand why he had to leave eventually. The loss of star players like Phillips & Raphina hurt the club so much. Stop hating on Sam Allardyce since he might be able to help us stay up another year.
Do a video on Motherwell FC wining the Copa Del Rey
That season they got to the CL semi final was one of my favourite things in football, and I'm not even a Leeds fan
I was there! Though I was supporting Valencia. I run the Valencia CF supporters club in the UK, we brought a bunch of Anglo-Valencian fans with us to Elland Road.
@@Tris2000 cool! it must have been an exciting time to be a Valencia fan too!
@@T.E.S.S. It was amazing! Hopefully those days will return again in my lifetime!
a documentary of Borussia Dortmund and how they were extremely close to bankruptcy in 2002 time and how Bayern had to save them. The extreme difficulties the club has had to manage within to get back to where they are #thepeopleschannel
Wow two videos in a week on the utter chaos at Leeds
Can you do a documentary on Bournemouth 😎🍒
You have to do a big Napoli video
ALAW!! We can do this lads!
you should do a video on Burnley alfie they are doing mad things
Still waiting for the what’s going on at Southend united video
It’s bothered me how much US TV coverage has tried to push Leeds on the US due to their American signings. Imo Fulham is the natural USA mid-table club.
