Why everybody " hate" their fans so much?
My 2nd team I dislike...no prizes for 1st.
Why leeds then?
Its the whole Revie, Giles - his on field snide in chief and that little turd Bremner dirty cheats thing
Their fans??
From the late 60s onwards the various supporters clubs, Pubs and Clubs had reciprocal visits to their rs counterparts...by their friends shall ye know them

Upto now decent footy and Bielsa get them a pass mark (just)...for now - but they will revert, they can't help it.
 
will be very intrigued to see how they play against non-"big" 6 opposition. Can imagine that they will have a hard time breaking down teams like Wolves who themselves would probably score 3 against that defense.

In a way, its weird that I would be more worried for them playing more on the front foot because their defense is extremely suspect and will absolutely be their weak link.

Maybe they are just excited, but just weirdly over cocky.

Maybe they won’t be in the mix for relegation, but their fans - similar to Reading, Norwich when they first came up - made jabs at established Premier League teams aka Everton, and how they’ll do more than us.

Just the media love in. Fulham and West Brom came up, yet I only heard “Leeds United: The Untold Story”.

Mate, in the last 49 years they’ve spent more time out the top flight than in it.

Historically had 10-12 good years and the rest they’ve been nothing more than a Southampton.

Go all out at Burnley, who’ll soak up the pressure and pick them off on the counter? Will definitely happen.

Perfect storm for both teams that game, attacking styles suited both teams going forward, whilst exposing the defence.

Most teams are afraid of Liverpool, so won’t attack, and lose, Leeds had a go and fair play.
 
definitely is, the "Bielsa burnout" will be a little longer I suspect now that they're out,
They are the one team above all others that doesn’t need extra cup games.

Quite incredible how Bielsa’s teams always falter in the second half of the season. The Argentine league with its ‘half’ season worked perfectly for him as over a shorter span of games he was able to get the maximum out of the players and avoid the usual collapse.

As effective as his style clearly is over a short period, there is obviously a flaw in that it doesn’t last a full season. Surprised he hasn’t tried to tweak his style to ensure the effectiveness lasts longer. Perhaps he just never had a big enough squad to rotate thus avoiding burnout.

He’s a huge asset to the sport as his teams and their front foot style are a great watch, in sharp contrast to Mourinho’s who are instantly forgettable.

I still remember the absolute pleasure I got with 1973, Porterfield, Montgomery and Stokoe.

The rest of the League rejoiced!

They're the poster boys for all that is bad in football fandom. Imagine every negative trait or behaviour that you could expect from a football fan and bingo - Leeds supporter.

The fans have always been some of the most awful creatures around. They seem to fancy themselves as 'hard men from Yorkshire', cause trouble and get battered.

The players back from the time of Revie have been a slimey dirty cheating group.

When O'Leary was managing them and they had a good side playing in the champions league they seemed to have 'rebranded'...

Then Bowyer / Woodgate with the racist attack.

The fighting on the pitch...

Hope they get relegated. Same thing, different era.

Leeds.
 
Just watching this Leeds doc thing, wow. Some absolute massive levels of delusion spoken on it.

English 2nd division club and they think the eyes of the worls is all on them, with one of the games biggest names....
