Flew into Leeds from Dublin this morning, probably 50 % of the flight were wearing Leeds colours, big Irish support for Leeds.
Lots of Irish Leeds both sides of the border, enjoy the game Bell

Despite there being lots of Leeds fans passing through Belfast City airport, Flybe cut the 9Am flight ad upped the prices of the 12 noon flight.
Means many northerners have to use Dublin as well now which us a but of a rip off.

Whatever the criticism, it was targeted at the black players as a group.
From what I read it was specifically towards the Derby players and this was why Cocu took exception.

Not surprised that Kiko is playing but he really shouldn't be required to today, just spent what is probably the two most stressful days of his life and probably got back late last night from London.

Our strongest lineup imo and a nice blend on the bench. 2 games so far this round and both Fulham & Brentford drop 2 pts each. They're giving it to us Leeds, please accept gratefully and nail it today !

I don't disagree with everything you say at all, but you put 'racist' in quotes, as if you thought there was nothing wrong with what Ramage said.
Here's his quote, followed by a response from Max Lowe, a black player at Derby. Hopefully it doesn't need any further explanation.
maxlowe As a young black footballer making my way in the game, I was shocked by comments made by one of the analysts on BBC Radio Derby’s Sportscene programme after our 1-1 draw with Huddersfield.
With the support from people I have around me — and after reading today that Raheem Sterling is to spearhead an anti-racism and anti-discrimination taskforce on behalf of players from all backgrounds — I have decided to speak out on behalf of black footballers at Derby County.
Racial ignorance, stereotyping and intolerance negatively affects the image of impressionable young footballers and creates an unnecessary divide in society.
I am also disappointed that a public service broadcaster did not step in to ask the analyst to explain his reasoning, or to distance themselves from these archaic thoughts.
