This is what I was on about in the earlier post, r.e. The possible (Not that we want to find out!) merits of going down. i.e. Clear the crap. The general standard to me appears to be very good lower Champ/Upper League 1 players. With the signs of one or two decent players sprinkled in. Now ... Go down, play effectively the basis of the same squad but start to build the new team from there, with people like Casper and Howson. Ultimately resulting in a team that would be (and with the right investment it SURELY would be) too good for League 1. We then come back up with a squad that we can improve on, but is effectively FAR better than the one we've got now ... I dunno, it just seems to be fire ighting these days and no real forward planning due to the state we're in. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
