If they go up I genuinely think they'll stay there for 30 years. They have ridiculous money behind them. Sadly, guys like Benham at Brentford and Bloom at Brighton won't be able to compete. Bizarrely, American sports are incredibly socialist. You get the draft where the weaker teams get the top pick. No shirt sponsorship. Maybe it's time for England to do the same. What makes you think that? I was out with two chesties yesterday. They arent confident, also they think they are 5/6 starting players short to compete in the PL as well. Thats 200m in transfer fees Anyway i was slightly goading them about the new plans to extent bellend rd. theres constant stuff on Facebook about they need 60/70,000 seats. My mates laughed and said, 'its only a few years ago since we stopped opening the east stand upper tier'. These are two of the most sensible chesties on the planet and even they agree their fan base is mainly deluded its just a matter of time before they go bust again and the council buys the skip and their training ground back off them again. Think J&O was being a tad sarcastic.

Think J&O was being a tad sarcastic. It's to be hoped so given their longest unbroken top flight spells are 18 seasons (64-82) and 14 seasons (90-04) I hope they do build an enormous stadium at some point, it will be hilarious. They have a vast army of 'fans' to whom Leeds are just a TV program and a cult to follow. They don't need seats in a stadium.

Spoke to both the L**** fans at work today - neither of whom has a ticket yet as they don't have high enough priority. One of them said that some friends of his (who could buy straight away) had a nightmare trying to buy them. They were in queues on the websites then kicked out and back to the back of the queue again. Sound familiar? No idea whether it's Ticketmaster or not

John Brooks is named championship play off final referee, he did just one game in the league ironically at St Mary's for Saints against L33DS which ended 3-1 to the home side.......Jarred Gillett is on VAR, he refereed the 2nd leg at Beeston last week.

I know this won’t be welcome but it’s pathetic that God’s Own County won’t have a Premier League club if Southampton win. So Yorkshire vs Hampshire? The real Lancashire has 4, down from 5 this season. I want Leeds up and then for us to follow in a few seasons. OK, minority of one, I’ll stand in the corner.

From their knuckle dragging chest wanking fans, to their arrogant cockwomble CEO, their corrugated iron stadium, & their manager who looks like the odd old man down the street who watches what you put in your bin and walks the streets with a carrier bag full of smart price lager, Yorkshire club or not - I hope they get dry humped with a tub of vaseline just out of reach. Saints fan this weekend.

I watched both of the last play off finals involving L33ds in the Vulcan when the owner was at the matches at Cardiff & Wembley, we held a party afterwards until he sulked back in later in the evening......Many of us had more than a few quid with him & on both occasions almost covered my season ticket at Town, no longer with us but cheers Pete.

I had a ticket for today's match, but I've had to ditch it, as I'm full of some respiratory infection. Very annoyed, as well as knackered and coughing. Missing out on drinking at the excellent King's Arms near Waterloo.
