Also from the guardian:

/It is not just the sheer number of supporters that makes Elland Road 
such an imposing prospect for visiting players. The atmosphere for this 
match was as frenzied as you imagine the Colosseum might have been in 
ancient Rome, the supporters seemingly baying for the opposition 
players' blood. The masses rose to their feet and roared their approval 
in the second minute when the Congolese striker Trésor Kandol needlessly 
barged the Millwall goalkeeper Lenny Pidgeley over - you almost expected 
Bates to stand in the directors' box and slowly turn his thumb to the 
ground./

Oh  man, I wish I was there.

Another thing, it seems that this team functions much better after a 
kick in the balls.  Consider this:
Last year we were useless, uncoordinated, totally lacking in spirit.  
The FA gives us the 15 point penalty, and suddenly we come out fighting.
Then, just as we seem to be faltering, Gus gets stolen from us - AKITB2 
- and millwall gets stomped in no uncertain terms. Next time we seem to 
be coming off the rails, I'm expecting Rich Walker and his cronies to 
hobble our illustrious captain to get the guys fired up again :-)
