Given that we've got threads still being semi-regularly bounced about Massive, Pompey and probably other examples of lower-league fodder, I'm saying a big fat NO to your suggestion :lol:
Translation: "If you think I'm hanging around with this shower waiting for anything good to happen – when I could be sat at home drinking pints of gravy and chewing the fat with Sammy Lee – you are seriously deluded. I've had my payout and I'm facking off until the next mug of a chairman picks...
I really hope they go down. The romantic bollocks surrounding their return a few years ago was pathetic. And yet what have they achieved? Naff all. Deluded bunch of fans, who think they have a right to be in the PL just because they used to be a 'big club'. Then the whole Ben White thing...

I'm adding Jim Shite to the list of 'deluded Leeds fans' as he was banging on about how they ("The MIGHTY Leeds United" in his words) are "back where they should be", how much he likes them and then salivating about the prospect of 'Champions v Champions' on the opening day? "COULD IT GET ANY...
