I would say it's the same at every ground, even at the theatre of wet
dreams. I've been in a few home ends at United away games and it's no
different to being in the Gelderd End at Elland Road. I had to stand
on the Kop at anfield one year because the away section was full, this
was when they were top of the tree and they moaned like fuck on there
too.

Hey Rob
Without these fans there'd be no team to waltz in once in a blue
moon and watch! Fans are entitled to their views when they're
shelling out vast sums of cash. I presume to be the best fans in the
world you'd have us back to Chumley-Warner days, applauding spiffing
efforts with no word of dissent? Get real. OK, fans chuntering may
hack some players off, but that's life - they need to accept it, and
do for the most part.
I'd be f***ing moaning if I'd invested a whole season in that team
to end up where we are now. And before anyone asks "If someone had
offered you this scenario pre-season i.e. beat Bristol Rovers and
you're up, then of course I'd have said yes, but from the very
limited exposure I have these days to LUFC, they make for some
challenging, and frustrating, viewing"

One other point I have to make though.............the Leeds fans. As
my mate pointed out, these are the diehards because you couldn't get
a ticket for this one unless you had been to all the other away
games. But what a bunch of miserable, moaning gits they were. It
wasn't just one or two.........EVERYBODY around us mixed great vocal
singing support with the most vitriolic and negative criticism of
any and every Leeds player who did not attack like Leonel Messi when
we had the ball or defend like Norman Hunter when they had it.
Greatest Fans in the World? Forget it! I know it is a cliche, but
why do these people bother going to games when everything makes them
SO angry? These miserable bastards don't deserve promotion.
