Have you by any chance been waiting a very long time to make a post like that? 😜😜😜

Yep :)
We know we're not going to win the cup or beat Premier League teams every week, but most Leeds fans have had some of the recent additions to the Premier League in their sights after their fans took such pious glee in Leeds being relegated a few years back whilst mired in debt. Portsmouth are currently finding out that living the dream doesn't just extend to teams with Champions League aspirations. If you have relatively little history and a small gate then you're doomed in the long-term regardless. You can't keep a big club down for long, as Man City showed. I just hope some of the other sleeping giants like Newcastle, Nottingham Forest and Derby come good and rid the Premier League of some of the chaff such as Wigan, Portsmouth et al. If their fans can't be ar$ed to turn out whilst 40,000 turn out for a midweek game against Barnsley at St James' Park, or 25,000 for a game against Blackpool at the City Ground, then they don't deserve the right to play in the top flight.
Super, super Leeds!!!
