If they were to go under and had to start again as AFC The Mighty Leeds or whatever, they could well end up playng in the Evo-Stik League (Norther Prem to the real world) against teams like FC UNITED OF MANCHESTER... Can you imagine the bother at that one!
Ken Bates strikes again. Chelsea were totally insolvent when he sold up to Abramovich. Out of the frying pan & into the fire if that guy takes over for sure. I live in Leeds & love it when we beat them, but I wouldn't want any club to go under.
I haven't got any great love for Leeds United - but I wouldn't want them to go under. The only team I would like to disappear off the face of the earth is the one from Bramall Lane.
When we play Wednesday, or Leeds, I really, really want us to win. Wednesday and Leeds have a hopelessly-inflated sense of their own importance, and not even scratching about in League One (more recently than us, both of them) without two pennies to rub together changed that. So, I love when we beat them. It makes me happy that we've beaten them in name of sport. With Sheffield United, however, it is not about sport. It is about wanting to beat them because they're the scum of the earth. Litigious, elbowing, deeply unpleasant. If they were to disband, it would be a rare triumph for decency over black arts. Karma over the employers of Chris Morgan. So, yeah. Fourth Division next season, please. Followed by a painful, long death.
Chris Morgan was always that kind of player. He didn't want to leave us, but had to do when we went into admin. What he did to Hume was terrible, but if there had been a decent referee he would have got a red, a suspension & within a year or so it would have been forgotten. It shows how rubbish the supervision of refs is that nothing was done after the game. I get more angry with the refereeing profession that they don't sort out obvious mistakes. D'Urso on Saturday again made two shocking decisions, one for each side. That said I think if we had gone 2-0 up we would have won on Saturday. We are a better team than them, but we have had some very bad management at the start of the season. Everyone has their reasons to hate other clubs. I personally hate teams like Cardiff, who have overspent & have a chairman who is an embarrassment.
