Extended-Phenotype The STG's and the RTG's are both a bunch of c/nts provoking the other into vomiting out larger fountains of bullshit.

I'm sick of the reference, to be honest. I'd rather stick 'em both into one category, and just call them 'F//king Bores'.



I agree with this as well :lol:

Who cares?! I'd be glad if our next 24 games were against teams having an off day!

If you read their fans pages and the local paper up there it's all about how Leeds are expected to beat tin pot little Reading and the fact they didn't shows them they just are not good enough for automatic promotion. Seems they are expecting some players to be moved out and replaced in the next 6 months or so as some could well be starting to get above themselves.

To be honest though, that attitude probably extends to all other clubs in the division save for West Ham, Middlesbrough and possibly Southampton.

this is where the Karacan Leigertwood partnership is so effective. They get out to the opposition central midfielders so fast, they give them no time to play.

So what we miss in creativity from them, we gain in not letting the oppo create

On Final Score (Saturday), Harry Gration did actually say Leeds were having an off day. Reading should have scored another 2 or 3 and with 5 minutes to go Leeds were unlikely to get level.

But no credit for Reading or Church's goal.

He used present South Today so I doubt he knows where Reading is.

In answer to the question, probably because the media believe that a club that has sold millions of £s of talent and replaced the talent with bargains should not beat sides that are historically bigger and higher in the table.

It's funny because you've agreed with him and then you've displayed an inferiority complex by criticising our fanbase and comparing it unfavourably against others.

Just to add, when we lost to Barnsley and Watford, we talked about ourselves being poor and not their performance. Natural for all fans, unless you play a team you expect to lose against.

Brighton were pretty poor today, and yet still they'd have got a draw if they had taken their gilt-edged chances 8)
