    To be honest this season has turned out quite well really, it would have been better had we beaten some low order teams, but hey you have to keep them interested otherwise it can turn out to be awfully predictable.

    Good luck in the Prem whoever goes up with you. :emoticon-0105-wink:

    The Championship is just great, but it's a different planet up there as we've found out twice these past few years. <ok>

    The championship is great, it is a much more of a level playing field and the games are good to watch because, well, sh!t happens and the entertainment is so much the better for it. Testing yourself at the highest level is always going to be a goal of any team, and then there is the money, we shall see. Whenever we have gone up before we seem to have done OK but now there are those teams that, well , they just cheat the system and spend way more that FFP allows. Role on September and I shall be hoping for the best.

    Not Fulham or Brentford. We don’t win in London and there’s enough teams from there already.

    Good to see we ended up with best goal difference (jointly with Brentford) and over 2 points a game. Can’t believe we also ended up 10 points clear of second, people will look at the table in the future and think Leeds had an easy time of it <yikes>

    Look up the table, there's 23 lower order teams, feel free to fill in the names yourself.

    Let’s not run them down, it must be terrible to be stuck in the Championship year after year.

    Even prior to lock down, anyone I spoke to who was into football (and didn’t support Leeds) all said the same, Leeds will finish top, maybe 2nd at worse. It was only us Leeds fans who felt we didn’t have it easy.

    On reflection we did make it easier than if felt at the time, it shows how well we handled the pressure this time, many thought Brentford were going to win 10 consecutive, they got within sniffing distance and bottled it.

    That’s it, season over. Been saying for a couple of weeks how comfortable I felt about our run in. Can’t believe how it all just seemed to fall into place with our results and those chasing. To each and every long suffering fan on here, enjoy the coming weeks/months. . We can finally consign the legacies of Risdale, krasner, gfh, Cellino, but most of all, the hateful Monaco resident, to the past, where they belong. ALAW

    When manure and chelsea play, I'm never interested, dislike them both in equal amounts but now I'd rather manure win than them because of that lying hypocrite.
