Rowett is so overrated.

He went on a decent run with Birmingham but underachieved at Derby.

I'm not sure if I'd say he underachieved with Derby. That was not as good of a side as the one with Hughes and Hendricks in it. They played us pretty well but I don't think the talent level was particularly high.

Vydra, Jerome, Nugent, Weimann, Lawrence, Ledley, Johnson, Wisdom, Carson. Lot of EPL experience there.

Uh so Leeds playing some gorgeous football and beating Derby 4-1. If they have the depth they could go up.

I certainly wouldnt hate to have Leeds back in the Premier League. Theyre a historic giant of English football.

You'd have to imagine that if Leeds could get promoted that they would have a lot of interested parties in purchasing the club and trying to restore it to it's glory days. I could see a Wolves level of investment.

Really? That's awesome. Lower leagues is the way in all honesty. Cheaper and a more genuine atmosphere. Fleetwood Town all the way

Agreed. I loved when MNUFC was in NASL and we played at a small ~5k person stadium. So much more fun than in a college football stadium.

I'm also going to the USA vs England friendly at Wembley, probably the  QPR vs Aston Villa game, and at least one Serie A game

I'm insanely jealous. That sounds like an awesome trip. I'd love to go to just one of those! When's the trip?

I'm leaving Nov-12, spending 3 days in Manchester before the USA game, then taking a train from London to Amsterdam for 4-5 days, then I have a week with nothing planned (probably Italy), then a few days back in London, then flying back on the 27th. I also booked a 24-hour layover in Iceland on the way back
