Sorry, but Smith is no more deserving of abuse than McAllister (ie not at all). The difference between Smith's move was that he made sure Leeds got the maximum amount of money for him - nobody else was offering what ManU offered; Leeds did not have to pay part of his wages; and - get this for loyalty - he waived a loyalty bonus worth around £1m. But because it's ManU, some Leeds fans can't get over it. Bear in mind that without ManU, Ridsdale's regime would have been bust two years earlier - don't forget £29m for Ferdinand. Bowyer & Kewell, meanwhile, screwed the club out of serious money. Pair of c**ts deserve abuse for 90 minutes should they ever have the misfortune to return to ER. Mark
>>Always found that very daft the mild abuse that McAllister got when he came back to ER. Off the top of my head, the ONLY players who left where it really annoyed or hurt such that some verbals would be merited upon their return to ER would be: - Cantona, obviously. - Lee Bowyer. Probably the one that annoyed me the most, more so than Cantona. The support he got from ER and the fans during his trials, then for him to p1ss it all away was astounding. - Alan Smith. Sorry, but badge kissing and proclaiming on Soccer AM that you would never never never play for Man U, then go like a whippet just doesn't wash. - Harry Kewell. Enough said. << _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
