i am a forest fan and hopefully not. step dad is a leeds fan and i am hoping for a forest-leeds play off final :nut
I think we should get a certain number of points back. We needed to be punished, because what we did was wrong, but the way the punishment was meted out was wrong also. Asking football league clubs to vote on sanctions is ridiculous - they are obviously going to kick them while they are down, and lets face it, that was pretty much the lowest ebb for Leeds, in almost 90 years. If it was a punishment handed down from the FA board, we would have very little case, but the football league regulations are nothing short of ridiculous. Compare our treatment to that of West Ham, who were pretty much let off the hook for cheating ON THE PITCH, whilst we only cheated in the BOARDROOM.
We are not cheeky cockney spivs though and we have Ken Bates who the football league hate. I hope we get some points back and that the matter is resolved. I hope we do our best to make sure the points do not affect us anyway. I kinda hope we get in the playoffs more than automatic promotion just so I can go to Wembley. Getting promoted is a must though, if e do not do itr this year we may get stuck down here abit.
If we get to the final, I will most certainly not be going. Try this for a losing record in finals attended by me: Challenge Cup Finals 1994, 1995, 2000, 2003 & 2005 - supporting Leeds Rhinos, five losses. Super League Grand Finals 1998 & 2005 - supporting Leeds Rhinos, two losses Cricket Cup Final 1999 - supporting Yorkshire, lost. Football League Cup Final 1996 - supporting Leeds United, lost. Championship Playoff Final 2006 - supporting Leeds United, lost. I chose not to attend the following: Challenge Cup Final 1999 - Leeds Rhinos won Super League Grand Finals 2004 & 2007 - Leeds Rhinos won Cricket Cup Final 2002 - Yorkshire won Rugby Union Cup Final 2005 - Leeds Tykes won
The only two trophies I have ever seen lifted by one of my teams was the world club challenge wins in 2005 & 2008.
Liverpool= Roy Jones Jr, king of the hill back in the day and still dominate shite opposition but no longer where they used to be, however always in the running. Arsenal= Naseem Hamed, few honours flashy but when it goes slightly wrong they **** it up and can't top the best. Man Utd= Floyd Mayweather jr- undoubtly on top but hated by all Audley Harrison= Tottenham big things expected hyped up but ultimately exposed for the shite they are Everton= Ricky Hatton supposedly liked but ultimately overated dirty cheating ****s
