Worthington
Have to say im in the stick with him camp and give him time !
Purely for what the guy has done for the club in the last 5 years he deserves until xmas.
Been only 21 , on the whole supporting city especially been brought up in Leeds until 16 had been something of a joke as i would travel all over the north and witness some tear jerking perfomances weekly ! (huddesfield, grimsby, bradford, tranmere, sheff wed, bury, stockport, man city etc ) as well as when I travelled to a ramshackled Deepdale on a raining Tuesday to see Hamilton's hapless wonders trail 4-0 at the break, a Mackem hat-trick completing the rout and site of journeyman Rankine dancing through our defence like Maradona this was all until Nigel took over.
My family live in Norfolk now and i have still continued to travel away and had a season ticket until i went to uni (cant get a ticket now cos of all these glory hunters !!bah!) and under no other manager have i had such awesome times and travelled with my dad and bro and said we could actually win here u know! , barnsley away , rotherham away , burnley away to name a few.
I dont think u can count the prem away days as u just dont expect to win away from home in the prem and anything is a brucie bonus . (went to birmingham away which was amazing tho !) It took portsmouth ages to win in the prem.
Im part of the crowd who was there with 13,000 others watching wimbledon beat us under hamilton on a dank novemeber at carrow road and i just think people need to remeber where we have come from abit more. It's unacceptable for fans to call for the heads of the board and management like we are Villa or Newcastle when you see the transformation we've
witnessed in the past 4 or 5 years. A run of 5 or 6 poor games in Worthington's reign which has achieved a play-off final, a solvent club, a refurbished stadium, premiership football, the best young target man and
keeper in the land and money to spend and consistently the biggest gates outside the premiership since the start of this campaign. I just think the whole club is in so much better shape now and it would be like taking a step back in time to the constant merry go round of managers if we axed him after this many games !
I dont want to get lambasted by people just saying what i think ?
