What a bizarre thread. But T has given me an idea. Leeds should sell all their local players and buy only immigrants, alcoholics and drug addicts. That way they'd get free accommodation and we could pay them less, allowing us to drop our ticket prices.

Man, I wish "brown people" had it so good in the States as they apparently have it in the UK. Here, they have to work their asses off cooking our food, mowing our lawns, building our houses, cleaning our homes, washing our clothes, picking our vegetables, etc., etc., etc., plus live with a lifetime of prejudice and hatred. Interesting.

Anyway, back to the actual subject at hand. I'm disappointed but I'm a Leeds fan. If I didn't care about every game, whether or not it was outside the chance of promotion or playoffs, I wouldn't be here. Every win is worth something. Players learn from every minute on the pitch. If you love Leeds, I don't think you should only love them when they succeed.

QPR have enough money to buy barcelona 98 times, they'll do just fine in the premiership

Ignoring your first paragraph and moving to your second.....

i agree wholeheartedly especially your words "I don't think you should only love them when they succeed". Let's face it we've finished top half of the table, haven't spent any time this season fighting relegation, now let's look to next season :-D :bear:
I'm going back to 505, I saw them at Sheffield and they were amazing.

Of course. Given where we were at one point we are all disappointed. Disappointed is caring.

What you don't seem to get is that support doesn't stop when the final placings are decided. Should a fan stop caring about their team's performance the minute they can't go up and can't go down?

When pride is all the team have to play for they should bloody well play for it. Not just theirs, but ours too.
