Well it’s been 11 days since I ordered my Leeds United shirt from the Official Online Club Shop and unsurprisingly it hasn’t turned up. They promised 10 days for delivery, which in itself is bad enough but this is taking the pi**.
Now, for the first time on my site some POSITIVE news from the world of Leeds United. The Mighty Whites won 2-0 against Swedish second division side Boden. OK, its not like beating Arsenal, but a win’s a win, something that was rare last season! New boys Michael Ricketts and Brian Deane scored.
Finally, Big Brother fans have a choice this week on who to vote to leave the house with every housemate apart from Michelle and Jason up for eviction. This follows the army style task which they passed. Ahmed is the favourite to leave. We must stop this! He causes trouble in the house! He must stay!
The new Daz advert or the new John Smiths one?
Peter Kay on Paramount was so funny last night!
He’s done another great John Smith’s TV advert as well. I haven’t see it on television yet, but you can see it on the John Smiths Website. It’s great! Top bummin’!
The 2004/5 Leeds United shirt. Expect to receive by August 2006
It amazes me how for years the Leeds United have stated they have massive debts, but still their online store and in fact even the club stops are dire. OK, most the money for the club comes from TV Revenue and tickets but merchandise and shirt sale must help.
It takes 10 days (at least!) to get orders delivered from the online store. Online stores for clubs like the Manchester United (scum!!) only take 3 days. The store is badly designed and there are hardly any of the products from the catalogue on the site. Then there’s the p&p charges, £5.00+, while other clubs are £3.50 or less!
The club shops aren’t much better, when I have visited its just full of crap and when I do see something good its either out of stock or in one occasion for me broken! I bought a set of pint glasses, beer mats and a bar towel. The mats were screwed up and towel missing. When I took it back there were no more in stock!
It would be so easy and inexpensive to sort out the online store and club shops.
How can the club expect fans to buy from the online store when they can go to Kitbag for cheaper and 2 day delivery! I ordered the new Leeds shirt from the online store over a week ago. It hasn’t arrived and my bank account has not been debited so it could be more than 10 days. Unacceptable.
RANT OVER
I couldn’t find a picture of thr Leeds United chairman, so used a horses arse instead
I got up this morning to the news that Leeds United’s home, Elland Road was for sale! The thing chairman Gerald Krasner claimed he did not want to do, and to be honest I’m not at all surprised. He claims that Leeds will still be able to play there for at least another 25 years but it is getting increasingly hard to trust this idiot.
Sure, he saved the club from administration but he and the rest of the board (with the possible exception of former player Peter Lormier) are running the club like a bunch of monkeys. Take for example the sale of James Miler…
KRASNER: “Hey, I have a great idea. Let’s sell that 18 year old wonderkid, who loves the club and plays for cheap and go after a 34 year old from Luton instead!”
OTHER BOARD MEMBER: “Great idea Gerald! Anyone else we can sell?”
KRASNER: “Well, Smith, Robinson, Viduka, Matteo, Harte and Barmby are all gone… so… no.”
OTHER BOARD MEMBER: “Damn! Looks like it’ll only be a five week Christmas for me in Barbados”
KRASNER: “Don’t worry my son! I’ve had a great idea! Let sell the ground they play on!”
OTHER BOARD MEMBER: “But where will they play?”
KRASNER: “Well there’s always my old school’s playing field we could ground share with and if they don’t let me we could always rent the ground back!”
OTHER BOARD MEMBER: “But didn’t you say we had to reduce our outgoings by selling players to get the wages down? Surly paying rent for Elland Road will cost us and we could loose everything.”
KRASNER: “Errr… errr… Just think of that holiday we’ll be having!”
So Ahmed stayed in the Big Brother house and as he proved yesterday he really is a nutter. As I said the other day, its only a matter of time before he attacks a housemate, and he has done just that! Alright if you want to get technical about it, its not a “living” housemate only a plaster one, but I think its only a matter of time before he goes after flesh and blood!

However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
