This is clearly coached into players to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC77 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Massive club. Remarkable it’s been so long. Bielsa is the difference in finally getting them back up. He’s a complete one off. Must say the break also worked wonders as it gave all his players a much needed rest. Because he runs his players into the ground they often fade as the season closes as they run out of gas (almost all his previous teams have done), so to get a second wind with the break was huge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerjon Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Leeds back to being a middling club in the Premier League flirting with relegation and missing out on Europe every year. You love to see it.

Trojan Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Congratulations to Leeds, hope it doesn't adversely affect the crowds at Headingley (should there ever be crowds again) Obviously despite 15 years of Leeds in a lower league, the needle between them an Man U hasn't disappeared. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8536129/Manchester-Uniteds-Marcus-Rashford-congratulates-rivals-Leeds-promotion-deleting-tweet.html The Macdonalds on Elland Road is the only one in the country (in the world?) with no red in its signage. There used to be an advertising hoarding opposite the ground, and one of the sports shoe manufacturers was running a campaign to the effect "1966 was a great year for English sport - it was the year Eric was born!" This obviously didn't go down well with some Leeds supporters, for there appeared there the graffiti "####" in large black letters. The advert was quickly pasted over, with plain white. But that didn't stop the graffiti. "Where's Eric? ####!" In even bigger black letters then appeared. No love lost between Leeds and Man U. “Few thought him even a starter.There were many who thought themselves smarter. But he ended PM, CH and OM. An Earl and a Knight of the Garter.” Clement Attlee.

I recall attending a match against Leeds at Old Trafford late 70 s , a coach was driving round to the away parking area , two of the windows had been smashed , a skinhead type Leeds fan was hanging out of one of them shouting abuse at us as it went by , wearing doc martens , braces and a hard hat , she had a decent pair of #### as well Edited July 19, 2020 by GUBRATS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
