I believe that totally, and the players are as much to blame as if they can not pass, defend and everything else,then they need to look at themselves and ask do they want it ?

For 60 mins we were doing OK but some of his tactical decisions/non-decisions were unbelievable:
1. Pick Ralls who has been simply awful all season
2. Bring on Harris let him cause damage down the left wing with a couple of runs and then switch him to fullback !!
3. Don't make any further subs until we've let in a second despite it looking obvious that we needed fresh legs to change the momentum.
4. Leave Noone on despite him looking knackered from 55mins onwards.
We could have easily won today with decent tactics but Trollope simply isn't up to it. Anyone who thinks it's down to anyone else is kidding themselves!!

Good post, just playing nooney doc it for me, finished years ago he offers nothing other than gifting opposition the Ball. Harris was a threat straight away.

The only way things will change is if the boardroom changes. Sadly I can't see any billionaires on the horizon with money to burn.

I was 100% against the rebrand but it's excuses all the time, back to blue and we'll fill the stadium out, it's all bullshit. What's happened on the pitch is what's stopped the fans coming, nothing else. If we started winning and towards the top then the crowds will come back again, simple.

Gareth you are normally a voice of reason but this easily fits into one of the worst posts you have ever made.
Bitching about Tan is 3 years out of date and will do nothing to drag this club up by it's boot strings. Those of us who are left have to roll up our sleeves and stand by this great club.

Ever since the re brand the fans have lost the heart the belief, if we loose it doesn't hurt anymore. You can be shit and keep your passion about your Club aka Leeds. Or even us many years ago. You change the complete fabric of the club then you destroy th soul and this is why we are seeing such poor support now. Most just doesn't care. The first step to getting it all back was the return to blue and our bluebird. But that ain't gonna be enough for many until Tan goes from our club forever.

All about opinions Tony. I may be wrong in what I'm saying but in any business/industry the direction comes from the top. CCFC is poorly led from the idiot owner who is a very successful businessman. Sadly being a good businessman does not make you a good football club owner.
CCFC needs big changes. Fans or customers are not buying in to the vision. Prices are wrong. Season tickets were 50 quid too expensive. Look at Huds and Bradford. Both selling ST at 199 and getting 18-20,000 every week. The product on display is not attracting walk up fans. That is down to recruitment over summer. Not 1 new signing has any pace. There are few locals in squad and its difficult to identify with the players.
Trollope may not be the right man but the job is a poison chalice. Who else would work for a lunatic that has no understanding of the business he owns?
I sincerely hope that Trollope sorts it out. I believe he is a good coach. Bringing in Lennie was a backward step. I'd rather see Bellers as assistant. There's no one on the coaching staff who is nasty enough. Far too soft.

I see where your coming from but ultimately success on the pitch brings in the fans, we played in red in the promotion year and on the Prem and the passion was there to see. Am afraid some use the rebrand/slade/tan as an excuse. " I will come back when slade is gone" " I will come back when we are blue " all bullshit. They will come back when we win like they did the promotion year and the premiership. Sad but true.
