Cheer up yer misery!!!
Whatever division we are in we will always be THE greatest.
I can't speak for anyone else, but I am really enjoying the rollercoaster
ride that is Leeds United, sure I miss the Chumps League, etc, but in all
honesty I think that I can say that I don't envy the position of scum (or
any other team that dominates for so long), thousands of fans are only going
to see the likes of Chelski because they are doing well. As soon as the
bubble bursts they will go and support someone else.
When our world went tits up a number of fans disappeared and good riddance
to them, what we have is a good solid supporter base and the faith that
things will get better.
For some of us younger fans who never experienced the highs of the late
sixties / early seventies I think that our expectations are lower, yes, we
hope that we will emulate the success of the Revie years but we are more
laid back about it.
Supporters of other teams have not experienced the highs that we have and to
be frank only one team can win a league, cup, etc during the season and so
there is always going to be more disappointment than elation and as
supporters we just have to get on with it.
As the song goes;
We've been through it all together
And we've had our ups and downs
We're gonna stay with you forever
At least until the world stops going round
One things is certain, if we were in ManUre's position this forum would be a
bag of shite, there would be no contentious match post mortems, nobody would
disagree with Rich W. Dave Nattan's match reports would just say "we were
fucking brilliant"

Subject: [LU] All the same
I know that we are now that '3rd division' has become our station in life.
I know that we are no longer great.
All the same it is bloody hard living with a diet of of 'will we: wont
we'
sign Crystal Palaces reserve goalie or Sheffield United s failed striker.
As for the hype about going up as the only option. Having said it that
makes
it happen. We just arrive and win. We are more hype than Obama & maybe
even
less substance. [just to wake the list up -- but I mean the sentiments]
This season is not the defining one in that if we get promoted it is the
beginning of a new dawn. Even if we do go up we can get stuck in the 2nd
division as we did in the 50's.
But if we do not go up I think that will be the end.
Bearing that in mind I think that we are being just a little cavalier.
We have one Right Back. A guy who's career is extremely underwhelming.
What is Sotje doing? He certainly is making it plain that he has other
options. That alone eliminates him from putting on our shirt.
Getting very bad vibes about next season.
