    I think both clubs have experienced (in recent times) similar drops from their natural level. Leeds fans who were weaned on European football were in for as much as - if not more of a shock when we dropped to D3 - than Hull fans (used to D2/3) who dropped to the foot of D4.

    There's always one. 70 sensible posts, and one idiot (hiding behind his computer) acting like an idiot. What do I not have a clue about, is it nicknames, or are you saying that I'm not qualified to comment on my own club.

    Well put lads. Being the best club in England in 1992, and getting to the European semi finals there after, progressing past the likes of Barcelona, Milan etc etc to then playing div 2 football is indeed a change of circumstance, or don't you agree merchant fish boy <laugh> <laugh> <laugh>

    No silly, that was the old Revie bunged, unafordable Leeds, the one Bates scrapped. This modern franchise you follow has had a spell in Division three and bobbled in Division two. It's why leeds is a Rugby Town.

    Leeds are just the new MKDons. I heard Man U fans taking the piss out of the lack of Leeds people following the football club at last nights game. Fancy Man U fans singing "we support our local team" to you. :biggrin::biggrin:

    DMD is the bitterest person I've ever encountered, whether in the internet or the outside world.

    Perhaps when one of you ladies get a man capable of posting a decent reply on your behalf?

    Just because you don't like the truth, doesn't make it wrong. It just makes the bitterness all yours.

    The Old leeds (the one with league position) was scrapped by Bates, that's a fact.
    The Leeds Bates created had no position in the football league, that's a fact.
    The charity of the football world let the new leeds take the position of the old one, subject to some token points deduction, that's a fact.
    That makes the currnet Leeds just a few years old, and with the same status to the old leeds as MK has to Wimbledon.

    Studies showed leeds had the lowest proportion of local support of any league club. That's a fact.

    So ladies, the bitterness is yours when you need to try to claim 'history' when you should be boasting about being the newest league club.

    I was just thinking the sooner Hull get relegated we won't have to put up with this... I then looked at the table and nearly fell off my chair, did not realise they had put three consecutive 1-0 wins behind them. How the hell did they manage three clean sheets, maybe we should sign their defensive coach lol.

    Our only really poor league performance this season was at Bellend Road, when our keeper decided to become a Leeds fan for the evening, we've improved dramatically since then(mainly by not playing the afore mentioned keeper) and my white ****e supporting brother in law now refuses to accept a bet from me, that we'll finish above you.

    No way, I can't possibly see Hull finishing 11th despite the three wins ;)

    Your not scoring enough, any team that cannot put more than one past our current defense has got no chance.

    You see sheep only say one thing - Baa, baa, baa! So what does that mean I hear you say.
    Well it can only be - Black And Amber. So the sheep obviously know something we don't.
    Therefore I was tempted to call myself 'Listen to the sheep' but I didn't because I wasn't fully convinced.
    Thanks for asking.

    Mine's obvious really.

    From my memory of watching Football Italia, the baldy bloke said Gollacio literally meant 'goals of steel' or something similar as a way of meaning 'top goal'. It was that bizarre it stuck in my mind.

    Unlikely that MU fans would be in a position to take the piss about LUFC fans not being from where their team plays, as they'd all have to live in Salford to qualify!
