You forgot to mention how the Glaziers family's money bag bought Howard Webb for your darling Man Utd...

You think it's coincidence that Man Utd premier league trophy triumph stopped just about the same time Howard Webb retired..

Don't you also wonder that despite Ferguson 26 years as a Man Utd coach he could only win 2 champions league??.. I guess he couldn't influence UEFA board like he did Webb and English FA..
yeah hater, we won 2 champion league and played 2 fucking final mufo. Our former Goat was craw world best.
The only English team to produce that till date.
B4 the Glazers in 2005, was man lifting cup or not?

Don't spew trash you don't no chelshit fan.

With this your I post, I can confidently say you nor be small pikin for football.. Those times of Lucas Radebe too. Very decent team, Leeds United. People might not believe they really pulled weight in the Champs League as well. It was around then we had a certain Shaun Bartlett from S/Africa running strings at Charlton Athletic..

They were strong contenders back then wihh players like Harry kewel and this Australia player viduka and Allan Smith doing wonders.

Leeds united was one of English top flight regular that survived into modern era. This club have a history of parading some exception player. With Eric Cantona in 1991 before joining Man united.


Recent star player include,

Rio Ferdinand,
Allan Smith
Mark Viduka
Harry Kewell
Lee Bowyer
Ian Harte

Leeds united of old, they were one of Man united rival after Liverpool. Can't believe they were in champions league semi final in 2001 playing Valencia

Unfortunately, you can't defend your way to trophies...

That club needs new owners, new coach, better players, better tactics if they will ever grow above mediocrity.

Burnley doesn't play good football... Honestly, Burnley doesn't even play football!

Those guys are an eyesore, to say the least.

Congrats to them. Season after season they keep qualifying for promition playoffs but always fail to make it to the premiership. They used to be a very strong team in the PL and play in champion's league before the moneybags bought Chelsea and Man City.
Wishing them a successful campaign in the top flight

The Flaming Flamingoes,Up Super then.Family feud pushed your club into extinction,learnt Fashola tried to mediate but failed eventually.

The rogue Peter Ridsdale,always leaving clubs in debts from Leeds,to Cardiff and Plymouth Argyle.I learnt he is leeching on Preston now,Im certain that will end in sad tales for that club as well.
naptu2:


I love football, but the only club I support is Stationery Stores.


There was a documentary about that problem back in the day. Peter Ridsdale and David O'leary were trading accusations.

The problem was that Peter Ridsdale spent with the belief that they would qualify for the Champions League every year and he blames David O'leary for not qualifying and denying them the financial windfall that comes from the Champions League, but David O'leary said that there was no way that any manager could guarantee that they would appear in the Champions League every year.

He succeeded. Stationery Stores bought over Union Bank's place in the NNL and we now have a beach soccer team too.

The same way Liverpool fans were praying for an EPL trophy, that's the same way Leeds united fans were praying for promotion to EPL. 2020 have not being totally bad afterall. It've been good for some fan base...

Congratulations to them. I hope they stay away from relegation next season unlike Cardiff city

I love it when women analyse and talk football.

Marcelo Bielsa is a true tactician.
I await his clash with Pep Guardiola.
