He's been doing it for most of his career, nothing Mcdermott can stop from the touchline in the heat of the game you say things that you wouldn't normally say. I'm no sure how you are expecting him to stop it other than fines etc after the game.

One of them was for off-side. And he wasn't offside.

He has in general. I noticed from the first game that when a penalty was blen against us the players just got back to their positions without saying a thing. Under coach McClennan they questioned everything. The only players who seem to have trouble with this are JJB and Senior but they have always been the mouthy types.

You forgot Brent Webb, who seems incapable of accepting any decision that goes against him without opening his mouth and having a chat with the officials.

Add that to the skipper's penchant for slowing the game down by asking for "clarification" on a regular basis and you can see why some fans of other teams were less than enamoured with Leeds under McLennan.

Why would Leeds want to replace one crap player with a replacement who if he was "like for like" would also be crap?

wooooosh

Andy, since when have fans of other teams ever been anything less than enamoured with Leeds anyway?

I'd like to remind everyone that this whole discussion about an issue with "dissent" is based upon Chorley Rhino's inaccurate post that JJB was penalised twice for this. He wasn't.

My point stood though. You can see there has been an effort made by the coaching staff this season to eradicate the backchat/decent and for them to just get on with it. Thats how it was Post Powell and Pre McClennan.

I agree J.
Up until Uncle Alibert took charge i don't think we've conceded a dissent penalty oh and Chorley the dissent penalties were against Webb and Jjb and both original calls were wrong to start with.
