You're onto a loser here. You know when England got the European Championships? I didn't get to a game at Oakwell ... how were they? Your little town is the ringpiece of the planet.
RE: You're onto a loser here. Ask any football fan what Hilsborough means to them and they think 'Stadium Disaster'. Simple as. Nobody thinks about Wednesday at all. Thirty million in debt and still sinking. You're a big club - honestly. Keep the faith. lol</p> Hilsborough - stain on the memory of football.</p>
Jumped over a row of seats once... at Grimsby and landed on the edge of the step with both feet! Hobbled around the rest of the neet but next morning couldn't put weight on either ankle. Turned out to be just minor sprains though & was ok after a couple of days. Think we won that night despite Andy Kiwomya missing an open net. It was when the away fans were using what is traditionally the home end (pontoon stand?) for a couple of seasons.
Really? The death of genuine football fans at the front of the ground is a "stain on the memory of football"? Maybe you should go spouting your theory in Liverpool? You might find yourself a bit on the dead side too. Leeds were £90m in debt - does that make them a small club? Is debt related to the size of a club? I don't think so. You need to get a brain that works.
When we played Huddersfield away last year i fell over the boards at the front,broke my neck and died.Luckily when i was cremated a "Diamonds are Forever" type scenario happened when a man stopped the coffin and I climbed out.He asked for 50,000 worth of diamonds but i only had a Mars bar,a marble and an old Johnny.
Yep Jumping up and down in the Paddock after a Johnny Evans thunderbolt I dropped a thripni bit darn int wooden cracks.</p> Mortal blow that, still av just abart recovered nar.</p>
Mmm. Are you two sharing the same defective brain cell? Oh yes. Our ground is a death trap. FFS sideways, in a soup, au gratin ... with a side order of chilli onion rings.
ooooooh that cut you didn't it? lol Nobody said anything about the fans not being genuine. What happened at Hilsborough was a tragedy. But when anybody thinks of Hilsborough they think 'Stadium disaster' and shudder. They don't think about Wednesday (although if they did, they'd shudder at the thought of such a god awful side). Hence Hilsborough is nothing but a terrible memory. I don't think anyone in Liverpool or anyone else would argue with that - it's an awful tragic memory. As you're well aware, people died inside the ground, not just 'at the front of the ground'. It's a terrible thing to have attached to your club. The ground should have been dismantled and you should've built a new one elsewhere out of respect for the dead.</p> As for your debts not meaning anything about the scale of your club - well I think you'll find there's a remarkable correlation between Leeds being second from bottom and having a massive debt (not quite £90m). You're not doing well are you? Neither of you are what you once were, and you're seriously not what you'd like to believe you are. If you're a 'big club' why don't you go out and get some big name players, a big name manager, and make a charge for the top flight? Oh that's right. You're not a big club. </p> I'd back Leeds to make it to the top flight again inside the next ten years. For you, well, you're more likely to end up going cap in hand to United to look for a merger agreement.</p>
Mmm - keep digging. Nice bit of back tracking there. I don't think anyone noticed. Good work. "The ground should have been dismantled and you should've built a new one elsewhere out of respect for the dead." Right then. Maybe the Twin Towers should be rebuilt on top of your spacky little head? I like to converse with people who have a bit of intelligence. It's like trying to teach a plantpot ballet.
Pulled a muscle running onto the pitch once! After the Newport 4-1 game of 1981 promotion season (if memory serves me right)
so in conclusion... Big Man football fan wets himself in excitement as Massive club scrape jammy win over tiny pit village ten man team they don't care about. Ah well, you said it.
Not quite, but..................... I once caught the wife under the chin at Millwall in 1990 - she wasn't too impressed with that one I also caught her on the side of the head following a goal against Plymouth during the 1989/90 season - when i turned around she was being held steady by a married couple that had been stood behind us. She stopped going not long after the Millwall affair!
