Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: STFC_Gazzza on Wednesday, February 27, 2008, 21:46:09 I see Leeds are grovelling to ALL football fans to help them get the 15 point deduction removed. They are running a petition saying that Rotherham, Bournemouth, Luton have all experienced difficulties etc and its a matter of principle... End of the day whilst I feel sympathy for the fans rules are rules.
You dont see Bournemouth or Luton grovelling to get their points back and they are in relegation trouble (not that it would make a hell of a difference) http://www.leedsunited.com/page/NewsroomDetail/0,,10273~1250985,00.html Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: axs on Wednesday, February 27, 2008, 21:47:09 The other clubs didn't cheat. They just went broke.
Fuck 'em, hope they get some more deducted for their actions. Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: axs on Wednesday, February 27, 2008, 21:48:04 Or as Eddiet said today - wait until the last game of the season and see how many points they need to get in the play-offs - and then give them one less than they need :D
Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Batch on Wednesday, February 27, 2008, 21:54:24 I think they can suck my big fat one.
They are in danger of making the season a mockery as those in and around the playoffs don't know the true state of the league due to the threat of legal action possibly reinstating Leeds 15 points. And they had previously signed an agreement not to chase this through the courts too. If they somehow get the points back I hope the FL and Leeds are subject to a class action lawsuit from the other clubs in our league. Not sure what the grounds would be, but surely the FL can't keep chopping and changing things mid-season. Either they have enforcible rules. Or they don't.

Ken bates screwed us. Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 08:10:00 They broke the rules, they deserve what they got.
Leeds - fucking deal with it you whiney little cunts.

Dock 'em another 10 for breaking that agreement!! Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Bennett on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 08:22:55 isn't this frivilous? (sp) they should have the same as alliedierere and have a further few points added on each and every time they mention this shit
Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Tails on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 09:08:34 What rules did Leeds break?

Failure to agree a CVA before the start of the season. The 15 point penalty was sanctioned instead of a ban from entering the league competetion, which was the punishment originally being mooted. Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Danjackson10 on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 11:11:16 To be fair we're lucky we didnt get deducted points. Be interesting to see how we would react if it was us!?

Be interesting to see how we would react if it was us!? Ken Bates thought demoting us two divisions was fair punishment for our financial misdemeanours in the eighties, so he should view being docked 15 points as getting off lightly. He can, quite frankly, fuck right off the hypocritical old cunt. Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Luci on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 11:14:17 Even if we did we wouldn't be making this much of a deal of it surely. Our fans could barely be bothered to make a stand when we nearly went out of business let alone fight a points deduction!

Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: McLovin on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 11:27:36 I know that Leeds are annoying many a town fan lately, but having seen ushumiliated by Walsall the other day, i was mystified to see a hoarde of young folks celebrating wildly that Leeds had 'only' drawn with Crewe. Surely this is of the smallest relevance and importance? I hate everyone who reacts this way to hearing Leeds not-so-good results, or is even bothered by their progress.
That is all. Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Colin Todd on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 11:47:23 Fair point McLovin. I used to care, but only out of ill -will towards wise and poyet.
Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Power to people on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 14:03:33 I must admit I do listen out for the Leeds score and laugh everytime they don't win as they think they are such a big team and have a divine right to walk over everyone else and try and be-little other teams, so to see them either getting beat or not getting 3 points is funny, and to see them not get promoted will be hilarious.
Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Arriba on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 15:33:23 i dont get why everyone hates leeds. :?
i feel sorry for them Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: thepeoplesgame on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 15:40:56 Quote from: "arriba" i dont get why everyone hates leeds. :? Speaking personally… Ken Bates. Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Bogus Dave on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 15:56:31 Leeds fans are not even in the same league as forest fans for thinking they hav a divine right to not be in this division
Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 16:07:16 Quote from: "arriba" i dont get why everyone hates leeds. :? i feel sorry for them I supported Leeds (a bit) when I was younger as I come from the area. When I realised how pathetically they were acting to what I saw as a reasonable punishment I lost the last shreds of my interest, and when I went to Elland Road to watch us this season all my new-found ill feeling towards the club seemed justified Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: dell boy on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 16:07:40 Quote from: "STFC dave" Leeds fans are not even in the same league as forest fans for thinking they hav a divine right to not be in this division You are totally wrong there Dave, they are a lot worse than Nottingham Forest fans. Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Bogus Dave on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 16:12:29 Meh they maybe. I was just going on fans on another forum, so maybe not the best representation
Title: Leed's Grovel For Support Post by: Rich Pullen on Thursday, February 28, 2008, 18:28:44 Give them the points back and watch them still fail to go up.
Then where will the excuses be?

Our fans could barely be bothered to make a stand when we nearly went out of business let alone fight a points deduction! Id say you were spot on luce! I disagree. We have the sort of fans that would still be going on about it over a decade later. Our demotions are an example. |
