Leeds United football club seem to stagger from one PR disaster to the next. The news that they have arranged to play two friendlies in war torn Myanmar is just another farcical situation that follows a list of farcical situations that the Leeds faithful have had to suffer over the past decade and a half or so.
Here are a list of the most embarrassing moments of the once great club, rendered in the form of the Animaniacs memorable Good Idea/Bad Idea segments:
Good Idea: Investing money into the club in order to challenge for domestic and European honours
Bad Idea: Investing so much money into the club that the subsequent domestic and European failure cripples the club financially and eventually leads to their relegation from the Premier League.
Good Idea: Signing young prospect Ross Barkley on loan.
Bad Idea: Sending him back and playing Michael Brown instead.
Good Idea: Singing Luciano Becchio, Robert Snodgrass, Johnny Howson & Bradley Johnson
Bad Idea: Selling all of them to Norwich
Good Idea: Uniting your supporters in a common goal
Bad Idea: Uniting your supporters in a common goal to get you ousted from the club after a string of bad decisions:
Good Idea: Signing one of the best talents in the Championship.
Bad Idea: Signing one of the most petulant talents in the Championship, who will get a six match ban for spitting at an opponent.
Good Idea: Changing your club crest to something more modern
Bad Idea: Changing your crest to something that turns the stomach of your entire fanbase
Good Idea: Hosting friendly matches in Asia in order to raise your profile around the world.
Bad Idea: Choosing war torn Myanmar as the destination.
