Was Bates Wise To Give Blackwell A New Deal So Early ?

That's right. Seven games since Ken Bates gave Kevin Blackwell a new 3-year deal and we've drawn 5 and lost two. Not very inspiring.

Surely it would have been wiser to wait until the summer and see where we were as the hunger seems to have gone from our performances since we drew 2-2 against Norwich at Elland Road.

Then the lack lustre performances against Coventry (1-1), Crystal Palace (0-1) Stoke (0-0) Hull (0-1) and Plymouth (0-0). However, todays draw against Reading was more assured and we were perhaps unlucky not to take maximum points with only 5 minutes remaining and one-nil in front.

What do you think?
