    What a ridiculous article by the Leeds United hating Mirror

    Leeds have a far larger worldwide fan base than all those mediocre clubs put together, but of course that's not taken into account <doh>

    Years and years of playing in Europe not taken into account either <doh>

    And yet winning cups and titles against the likes of Corinthians, Wanderers and Royal Engineers back in the days when Queen Victoria was still shagging Mr Brown is used as a measure of how big a club is?

    What a ****ing load of old bollocks

    4. I appear to be a legend.
    7a confirms it.

    Sorry Mate you fail, usually a Legend, by the British definition, is dead and as you know a Saint always is. I always count my lucky stars I'm not a Saint, but I'm working at it :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Kenny Dalglish told the Rad we were the biggest sleeping giants in England, hence why he bought us. That’s good enough for me

    Waste of time debate

    You have to define big club, everyone has their own idea what it means

    That's all the debate is about really

    2000 was the combined IQ of the 100 Millwall fans who went
