GET IN THERE!!!!! What a draw! A really strong away contingent will go I'm sure. I'm definately going to go and what a draw! So chuffed right now!!! Renew our rivalry for sure.
Happy days--I remember the great death struggles with Leeds in the late 60's when Ozzie was at his best! I was there at Wembley when Hutch got his equaliser, then we had to cart ourselves off to Manchester where Webbie got the winner! I'll never forget my group of mates coming out of Wembley Stadium and bumping into the fantastic Brian Clough, who, in spite of the great surge of people all around us, gave me and my mates a good 5 minutes of his interpretation of the game! RIP Brian, you weren't a Blue, but you were the greatest manager in English football.
Remember when Leeds vs Chelsea was a contest to see which Leeds player could kick the most Chelsea players and stay on the pitch. Norman Hunter was an animal, and Bremner a cheeky nasty little bastard, but boy could he play.
Well we still have Brown who'll give it a fair go, Austin and Pugh always do try as well so we'll have to see how it goes
Gunna be a ****ing immense game !!! The Carling cup has actually surprisingly been very exciting this year for once can't wait for this game either, will likely go as well
It's good to give the lads a run out who don't play often but I feaR for fixture congestion with WCC in December too
This could be an epic game, Leeds will be well up for this. Who'd have thought a few years ago we'd be going to Elland as European Champions with Leeds in the lower tiers. Great for us and hope Leeds get back to the P.L soon. A team we love to hate!! Just hope there isn't any trouble up there, it's only a game of football after all.
quick question. whats the likelyhood of these tickets going on sale for firstly members and then non-members? (incredibly slim for the latter i assume) and roughly when will they be on sale? i ask as im at uni in lincoln at the mo (only about 1hr 30 from leeds) and have never been to an away game. but i havent renewed my membership in years. :/
The likelihood of these tickets going on general sale is very very low indeed. Away tickets hardly ever go on general sale and Leeds away is a huge game for us fans. They will sell out pretty sharpish no question.
I hope you're right there but I'm afraid I wouldn't put a bet on it... It is a big game for both sets of fans and if we bring 6000 fans up to Elland Road... well... it will be very feisty!
Class draw, means we'll now have played Liverpool, Arsenal, Everton, Man U and Chelsea in the space of four seasons. Enjoy your trip to Elland Road, home of the eternal Champions of Europe. Altogether now: He's only a poor little...
