F*cked By Ridsdale, Found By Bielsa | We Are Leeds...

In 2001, Leeds United were 90 minutes from the Champions League final.

In 2007, they were in the third tier of English Football.

Told by the fans, this is the story of how the dream turned into a nightmare and how the nightmare seemed like it would never end…

…until Marcelo Bielsa arrived.
