Advantages: Great support
Disadvantages: Team deprived of confidence and its star players
Just a brief opinion to say what amazing fans this club has! 4-0 down at home to Arsenal and still singing their hearts out. It?s amazing they can still support their team so strongly after their plummet from the top of the premiership and the semi finals of the champions league in recent seasons to bottom of the Premiership today. They still fill the stadium week in ? weak out to see a team drained of confidence and numerous star players.
The mass exodus at Leeds has been beyond anything I have ever seen. Imagine Arsenal without Henry, Pires, Lungberg, Vieira, Wiltord and Bergkamp. This kind of scenario has hit Leeds, a club formerly, arguably as good as Arsenal in former seasons. With stars such as Jonathan Woodgate, Lee Bowyer, Harry Kewell, Robbie Fowler, Jimmy Flloyd Hasselbaink, and the infamous Rio Ferdinand, Leeds were challenging for the Premier League and very nearly reached the final of the Champions League. However, recent failure to even qualify for the Champions League and inferior Premier League form contributed to crippling debts and many player departures at Elland Road. Their finances depended on Champions League qualification. The sackings of the once successful David O?leary, and the memorably not so famous Terry Venables, meant huge compensation pay outs, meaning further debts, and consequently, further play sales.
More to be added soon.
Any suggestions? Please comment fairly and honestly

- 18/01/08 best start ever in second division:) - Fantastic club had some quality players through its history - notably for me Kewell and woodgate, god the list goes on best leeds side probably of all time. I'm sure they will be back very soon they have dropped to the first division and seem to be doing well I think championship next year and then maybe a season possibly 2 before they get to premiership then a Gary Lineker in depth review of the fall and recent rise of Leeds United. So bloody predictable I'm a Leeds fan but I'm stating to think football matches are fixed to keep our attention from the New World Order and the rise of Tyrannical rule over the planet where 80% of the worlds population are removed through mandatory vaccines/war but still I hope Leeds survive that as well and get into the champions league in 2012 |
