It is but they didn’t bloody struggle against us and the games against them pi***d me off more than any other games we played in that. And reading fans in social media deluded believing 4-1 defeats were a measure of how we’d joined the big time
Yes mate totally agree and there is the cost it is robbery. Tickets/food/drinks it's extortion and shameless at that. Non league is honest and affordable plus the players are their to talk to. I will still go to the odd game at Elland rd but i refuse to pander the over paid rats who jump ship. You can add Gnonto to that list as well.. Sell him.
Well we did go 2-0 at Old Toilet but had to settle for a draw in the end and then there was the decent 0-0 at home in our first season back up. For some reason you only seem to remember our defeats.
Non League is great but the richest teams still end up at the top and Wakefield have been storming through the Leagues because of exactly that.
Remember them all and most were embarassing Jammy particularly when the opposition were at their worst for two decades. In fact we played them eight times. Aggregate score was 25-8 with us managing two draws. Need I say more
That's where we're different then as whilst obviously all our defeats were painful at the time I'd now struggle to remember the scorlines of most of them.
You should see them play no hoof ball at all. It's a long way to go from level ten or step 6 below league football.
In all honesty I googled our results against the big five and I won’t display the results. Basically same as the Man U stuff. Awful. We tend to remember the odd result we got but mainly because there really were so few
Had we won one of them cou can bet we’d still be crowing about it and rightly so. It improves by six if we leave out the two friendlies
This is exactly why I say we are better than last season. In Ayling and Cooper who were both first choice last season but behind kids in the pecking order now. 17yo Archie Gray, 23yo Shaks, 21yo Spence are ahead of Ayling and Struijk ahead of Cooper and would say Cresswell is ahead of Cooper too. Last season when Struijk was picked it was at LB or LM only playing LCB when Cooper injured. Ampadue is the closest we have to Kalvin Phillips and would walk into last seasons starting 11
