I was pleased to see Leeds' fall from grace but accept they're on the up again.
However Leeds are not the Premiership side they were, so this ranks as a big FA Cup upset. For this reason neutrals will be expected to enjoy it, their usual feelings towards either club notwithstanding.
As it happens, I like Man U moderately and dislike Leeds, but this result was very welcome, and good for football.
Originally posted by Palynka Where does the dislike of Leeds come from? Since I wasn't here in the UK during those years, it seems a bit weird.
After being beaten 3-1 at Anfield a few years back I remember seeing the majority of their away supporters come storming out of the ground, mowing down anyone in their path including young kids. That's my own reason for disliking them. Can't be too vocal though as I now live in Leeds 🙂
This is exactly why people HATE L**ds.... their fans have an overbloated opinion of the club - 'nearly won EVERYTHING a few times'????
They won the League, and the FA Cup...never did owt in the European Cup though... but then again, most people from L**ds have never been further than Wakefield anyway.
By the way CatFood...has your dirty little town council started collecting any rubbish lately? Or are you all still living like gypos amongst empty milk cartons and stinking nappies?

Look back at my post... it wasn't the 'nearly' I picked up on...it was the EVERYTHING!
It's interesting that you chose to list all the times you didn't actually win anything, we could all put a list of things together where we 'nearly' won stuff - hardly success is it?
I nearly shagged Kelly Brook....
Re: Council - If L**ds City Council isn't 'your' council, you're obviously one of the few L**ds folk that has managed to escape the slum?
