You could be right. Mind you, this is Leeds we're talking about. They obviously would have been aware of the clause when they signed Koch, but I do wonder if they thought 'Well relegation isn't going to happen, so the clause will never be invoked. Sign him up'.

I've no idea whether this will work or not work for Leeds, but it promises to be an entertaining season for everyone. A couple of observations: 1. Many Leeds fans in the replies are clamouring for a Director of Football to be appointed. (?) 2. What are the chances of the new chairman/owner...

Notice how none of it was his own fault. He's just stating the obvious - Leeds need goals, experience, and a bigger squad. Previously he blamed the players, lamenting individual player errors. So having won one point out of a possible 12, he's now angling for a new, longer contract, and...

Chelsea twitter admin pokes fun at Leeds. (Which was received by Leeds with dignity and good grace*) https://insidefutbol.com/2023/05/28/certainly-does-chelseas-twitter-hits-back-at-leeds-united-following-whites-relegation/604900/ * This bit is false. We're up to 10.000 replies already.

But not so great if you're a Leeds fan.

He would have to be a good price. Tony Bloom likes to buy low, and add the value himself. Unlike Leeds, who had taken a close, forensic look at a young Ben White for a whole season, and still didn't to want to pay the market price for him. In contrast, Arsenal were, and are now enjoying the fruits.

I thought Latin was dying out? You know, like Leeds.

I'd like to think we could pick the bones off the Leeds carcass, but I honestly don't think they have a single player who would get into our squad.

True. He was Leeds through and through.

They should have signed him when they had the chance.

Leeds have graced the Premier League with their gentlemanly behaviour these last few years and have won many friends. If there is any justice in this world, they will stay up and reward Sam Allardyce with a permanent contract.

If that had come from a Leeds fan, it would be discussed on WACCOE and accepted as FACT, faster than Fat Sam can spend his wages. #freebenwhite #20millionisourfinaloffer #takeitorleaveit #fairmarketpriceafterSunday

That is beyond stupid. If I could be bothered, I could pretend I knew the inside story of how the Prem paid Brighton to swing games with the sole purpose of sending Leeds down. But I'm not that cruel.

Well spotted ! Always nice to see Leeds fans suffering.

That's a great post ! In the good old days, we had a regular diet of disappointment, but at least we knew what to expect. But there were other positives. When we played at Withdean, the walk home to Patcham in stony silence wasn't as long as when we played at the Goldstone.

Yes, you're right. It was remiss of me not to mention that. My excuse is that the narrative of Leeds fans being such thickarses, while not being a universal truth, is so entertaining.

My initial reaction to your post was 'no, it can't be, surely?' but having thought about it, and read the other comments, I'm not sure there is any other logical explanation.

Do you think Leeds fans base their predictions on previous results, or do they use something else? Voices in their heads? Yorkshire tea leaves? That list of 'winnable' games (not just Brighton), is right out there....

All joking aside, it does make you stop and think, doesn't it? £18 million for 48 minutes vs. £63 million incoming for Cucurella, who got destroyed by Solly who joined us on a scholarship. That's proper management. (y)
