The McDermott Revolution is over at Leeds

Oh dear, talk about hitting the panic button! After arriving like a breath of fresh air, Friar Brian has apparently lost his nerve and against Leicester turned the clock backwards, wafting in the stench of Warnock with a vengeance - and we are not just talking about the inclusion of Shit Brown.

Apart from Brown, a whole host of Warnock's foot soldiers either started or were introduced from the sub's bench. Podgy Kenny, young Byram, old Warnock Junior, Useless Lees, Pearced as a newt, Ruddy Austin, McCormack, Reg Varney, Hell Hadji and Peltier - that's 12 Warnock men in total who featured. No Smith, of course, he was suspended, but also no Wootten, no Mowatt, no Poleon, no Murphy, no Zaliukas, no Complete Hunt; in fact the only kids or newbies that featured were the two loanees. The Leeds Board must be wondering why they shelled out all that money - no wonder GFH Capital said enough is enough!

And whilst it is true Leeds showed more fight than at Rochdale and Sheffield Wednesday, you would expect a reaction of sorts wouldn't you? And if you want "fight" then Warnock players can generally be relied upon for that; but if you want class, well it's going to be more 'under class' than aristocracy with Warnock's bruisers isn't it?

And so it proved. Warnock's Warriors huffed and puffed but failed to blow the Leicester house down, and then Leicester delivered the almost inevitable sucker punch late in the game. Mind you, it's one hell of a sucker punch when you lose to a Nugent goal - who has all the finesse of a Trabant! And from a pass by O.A.P. Phillips no less. Ouch!

So where does McDermott go from here? He claimed Warnock had left a poor squad behind, but in time of need, he turned to Warnock's men, which makes him look just a little bit silly - or absolutely desperate!

Meanwhile, Old Big Gob will be offering advice from beneath his replanted Banyan tree in Cornwall and smiling broadly at Friar Brian's team selection. "Crap squad?", he might well ask, "Well if I signed crap, what does that say about the players McDermott has brought in, given my lads are better?"

Revolution, what revolution? one might  well ask!

  2. Concentrate on the porn kings troubles Nev....you have enough problems of your own. See you next season....mind you, I guess that you will be writing second rate, second hand stories rather than going to championship games.

    1. I'm aware of that - but they were regulars in Warnock's team and part of the squad left behind that McDermott has criticised.

  11. Can you tell us exactly when McDermott claimed Warnock had left a poor squad, or is that another one of your story enhancing comments.
    You really are a looser.

  14. I wondered when you would wake up. The Italian Job may stop Leeds giving saddo's having a laugh. It may not. I have had enough of Brian McDermott, David Haigh and the other's. They say a change is as good as a rest. Bring it on. See you next year West Ham, If things go right for once, Hammers fighting to stay in Championship, Leeds going for Promotion with better players and a Manager who knows what he his doing. I am not given to rash comments but I now feel they way forward for Leeds is about to happen. No more Santa, Poor Arabs, Conservatives Politicians trying to be football fans, Journeymen, one tactic Managers. Reading and Leeds will be the sides to watch next season. It is all about knowledge and money. Leeds Management team has lacked both qualities since the 20th Century.
