And Liverpool?
Chelsea?
Newcastle?
I've responded to most claims below.

I shouldn't have to explain this to a Leeds fan, but here goes:
-A club supported by 95% glory hunting plastics
They still got 45000 in div 2 after dennis law sent them down in 74.
The global, corporate bastardidasion of the beautiful game means you
could apply that to at least 4 other teams
-Alex Ferguson
Agreed.
-Gary Neville.
Definitely agreed.
-30 years without a title, now think they have a god given right to
them.
So do Liverpool, Chelsea and arsenal. Particularly at the moment
Liverpool. Why do we think we have 'a god given right' to be
premiership?
-Journo's and plastics calling them 'United' when they are just one
of many..
Completely agree. But is that their fault?
-War of the Roses
Bolton, Blackburn, burnley, Wigan, man city, Liverpool and everton
-The Glaziers
Do we really want to go down the dodgy owner route!?
-Rio
Best bit of business Publicity Pete made! £12,000,000 profit
-Cantona
Wilkos fault. Couldn't handle individuals and handed them the missing
link.
-Withdrawing from the FA Cup
Agreed. But the FA were culpable in that. Should not have allowed it.
-Thier 'fans'
Total wankers. No argument. But so are millwall, Chelsea, Newcastle
and sheff utd
-The fact you can't walk down a street without one of their rancid
tops spoiling the view
Do you drink Guinness on st paddys day? It's called marketing.
-The fact 99% of those 'fans' never go to see their 'team' play in
the flesh
And how many fans of ANY team go to every game. How many Leeds fans
are there in the world? More than 23,000 I can tell you. Considerably
more.
-Their general lack of humility, grace, or class
Sums up the premier league
-Pulling England players out of the team whenever they get have a
chance
See above
-Embracing 'Winker' back at the club after he got England knocked
out of the Euros
So what. We bought tomas brolin.
-Spending 30 million at every transfer window, but still crow about
ONE youth team they had almost 20 years ago, as if they are a
conveyor belt of young talent.
Wouldn't you if it had won you countless trophies!!!! I was there when
we won 2-0 (agg 4-0) in front of 34000. But what happened to our 11???
Hating them for that just smacks of the green eyed monster and is
PRECISELY my point.
Thats for starters... anyone else care to add to that?

You're all glossing over the point. I was absolutely delighted to get
Liverpool and really enjoyed the game and felt we'd put down a
marker that
said we were coming back.
If we beat Kettering I will be very excited about playing Man Utd,
especially with 2 Man Utd season ticket holders in our office. BUT,
the
question I'm really asking, and several regular posters are
conspicuous by
their absence on this, is why do we have such a blinkered, bigoted
and
focused loathing of Man Utd?
That's why I'm not particularly looking forward to it on several
levels,
we revert to the neanderthol, we lose sight of OUR team.
I still hate Gary Neville BTW!
Well said Nigel!
One minute, people are moaning that we are playing Darlington
every second
match, we land two plum ties in one year against Liverpool and
scum, and
people even manage to find fault with that.
We will get TV revenue, we have a shot at beating them, and the
fans (well
95% of them) will love it, regardless the result. So what if we
lose? We
are going to go there and outsing them. Anything else is a bonus.
Cheer up! As Nigel says... attempt to hope!

Blimey.
"We might lose and I'll be disappointed again."
"Our numpties will get us docked."
"It's a distraction."
What will people say when we go up?
"We'll only be mid-table so what's the point?"
"Sheffield is no better than Yeovil really when you think about
it."
"My belly is still flabby, and I still can't see my dick when I
stand up
straight."
I know it's Monday and you're probably stuck in a dreary job, but
_attempt_
to hope.
Liverpool and Man U in one season. It's a sign. The players will be
buzzing,
and so will Elland Road for the replay.
Nigel.

The other side of it is that should we get there (all respect
due to
Kettering...etc) this would become "our Cup Final" - and there
would
suddenly be
15-18000 Leeds fans with a large numpty contingent, looking to
"have
it
large"
at Manc's expense...and if ever the authorities wanted an excuse
to
dock
points
that would be it...
I don't know what the % of tickets the away side has to get in the
FACup
but
isn't around 20%?
The Cup is meaningless for us this year. We need promotion (and
not to
be
sidetracked) nothing else matters.
(still bet Fergie hopes that Andy Hughes and Becchio aren't fit
for
that
one)
