When Sunderland and leeds were promoted together , if memory serves correct Rysdale was chairman of Leeds.
He started spending a fortune and gained some short term success . Sir Bob was crucified for not doing the same . At the time he said Leeds were taking too big a risk and to judge him 10 years on .
Look where Leeds are now !!!!!!!!
Sir Bob was right . Sure he errred too far on the side of caution but we are now benefitting from his long term planning , fantastic stadium and the Academy of light producing it's first home grown international .
I'd say we have a lot to thank the gentleman for !!
