I doubt anyone here has ever been to a more enjoyable non Albion or England game. I certainly haven't.
Haven’t they now got a Chinese fortune to waste though?If Dirty Leeds do get promotion, will we be hearing all Summer what a great club they are, and how they will be top 6 first season back, and that they will win the PL, the following season?
You know, like last time.
Deluded isn’t a strong enough word.
Away to QPR with just a few games to play to win promotion.
Now, where have I experienced that before?
'I couldn't hear what was being said but, knowing that it might be about a serious matter, I chose to stay quiet. Unfortunately, I then choked on a piece of half time pie and a 'boo' like sound came out of my mouth. I was unable to stop this for five minutes'The cynic in me says many LUFC fans would still have booed even if they had known.
Having a dislike for both Southampton and the champions of Europe I really hope their encounter on the final day means something to the both of them, with it ending that they cancel each other out, Ipswich get promoted and both of them fail in the play offs with Hull being promoted for good measure
Twats the pair of them
Ipswich have two very tough away games, before finishing with Huddersfield.
Can see it going to last day
Southampton have no cause to be up for it. They can't go anywhere. Might as well rest players.I seem to recall both dislike each other, can see Southampton being up for it.
Like Ben White?Has Leeds spell in the Championship done anything to make their fans any less entitled?
It appears not, as this fan thinks they will attract better players than "normal" clubs that get promoted

I work with a Southampton fan and he said there manager was too loyal to the players that got them promoted and any momentum they had was lost after two months of getting hammered every week. I will maybe naively hope that we can attract a better sort of player than normal promoted clubs

I suspect he isn't quite as deluded as we might want to think.Has Leeds spell in the Championship done anything to make their fans any less entitled?

It's just one fan. A dear friend of mine, of Yorkshire, and a Leeds fan of over 50 years has been telling me that they will go the same way of the other promoted teams. The belief being that this current squad is just not good enough for the top level.Has Leeds spell in the Championship done anything to make their fans any less entitled?

Oh God, I don't want Burnley again. They're just another yoyo club who will be crap if they come up, as usual. Even more so this time in fact, because they have Scott Parker managing them.Of the three teams likely to go up automatically, I want Sheffield Utd the most by far. Then Leeds, then Burnley. I'd be a bit disappointed if Sheffield United missed out, whereas there are lols to be had otherwise.
Then Coventry via the play offs, or perhaps Sunderland - an away trip to either would be decent.
Point of order. It’s Scotty Parker.Oh God, I don't want Burnley again. They're just another yoyo club who will be crap if they come up, as usual. Even more so this time in fact, because they have Scott Parker managing them.
If we're picking preferences based on the play off contenders, I'll go for Bristol City. Obviously they will be shockingly bad at PL level if they somehow squeak their way through, but at least it'll be a good away day. I don't mind Coventry as such but Lampard is quite irritating.
