Nothing to enjoy LiD, played two teams with contrasting tactics and we were made to look very poor, all those prima donars crying off with injuries, they would never play again if i had my way. Hodgson is a joke, ask any scouser!!! We shall get a right seeing to in Brazil, piss poor, plus i am knackered as i stayed up to watch it.....never again. Same as you, looking forward to the weekend and hope we can pick up where we left off.
First match was around 1975 at West Ham, my dad took me in what was then the infamous chicken run, and there was a cockney wide boy right in front of us swearing at the ref all through the game. Looking back, my dad, a big strapping Geordie who was used to Sunderland/Newcastle games from the 50's and not averse to a bit of banter, must've cringed being with his son wearing Leeds colours in the West Ham end, but he never said, bless him. West Ham took the lead, Duncan McKenzie equalised, and the best player on the pitch was the then 31 year old Norman Hunter
Many Happy Returns elland, good one!! Agree, can't wait for LiD's next matchday thread, beats the international break hands down! Fave games I've attended are: Leeds 1-0 Scum (Kewell header) and Leeds 1-1 Barcelona (Rivaldo last second equaliser) ... wow, those performances were immense!!
Last second... and some Although we've gone from seriously late goals versus Barcelona to late goals versus reading. The opposition may have changed but the same things always tend to come back around!
