    I think they will walk it this year, always been a fan of Gary McAllister. Leeds haven't always been my favourite club to say the least... but I think they have served their time in the lower leagues and I hope to see them back in the premiership soon :)

    Maybe if GM had arrived earlier last season things would have been so different


    But I agree this season must start like the first 3 months of last season......and continue

    [/QUOTE

    Cant see a start like last season, tbh, it will very difficult plus expectations will be higher
    we are the favs to win it and that will put more pressure on us, we will be the Team everybody wants to beat, Not Leicester, they (LESTA) wont sell out at every ground they go to, or put up with as many fixture changes we do,

    No. Hopefully a few years in League one await. May teach their fans some humility.

    Our massive thread has been shut down-

    Onwards and upwards for the Leeds -

    Another massive reply I reckon from this thread! :D

    As far as signings go we could have Jay Bothroyd pretty soon from Wolves ;)

    I think we will go up, but it won't be easy.

    We need a couple of good signings.

    Person who started this thread, couldnt find the old one, i just went into my profile and put it back to the top, for some reason it was locked, and moved , all people had to do was what i did, not excatly rocket science is it
    Apart from anything else it was the 5th biggest on here,

    The person who started this thread " Could" find the old thread but felt that the title was a little outdated for the 2008 - 2009


    Leeds United ~ Will they go down?

    Hopefully not :)

    With hindsight It may have been wise to request that the tiltle be changed by the mods

    I have requested that both threads are merged into one and the Status Quo will be returned.

    The only way to lift any thread back up to the top on your Cp is to post something on it , sadly , something you cannot do if its locked .

    I am going to say no.

    I think Leeds will go up.
    But I think Leicester will be the champions.

    It will be a dogfight for the top spot between the two and third place could be quite a few points back. Carlisle are other obvious contenders and who knows what will happen with MK Dons and Peterborough?!

    I personally would like to see teams like Leeds getting back in amongst the big boys. Football will be better for it.

    Reply from the mods......

    The old thread was closed as large number of members requested that it be closed, as it refers to a different season.

    Because of this, it would be best not to merge the two.

    seems a "large Number" of people requested it

    Personally i felt that i title change would have been in order rather than close 'Leed United - Will they go down'.
    But if the MODS cant do it then lets get this new one up there with the biggest.

    I think we will go up, but as champions? I'm not to sure.

    Most of the players will have a lot to prove this season. Hopefully Beckford will carry on from his good pre-season form.

    Please everyone , feel free to contact the mods and make them aware of your feelings ,If a large number of people request its return ,with a tiltle change , you never know .

    I have been rebuffed twice , I don't see why they cannot both be merged .

    They point out that there is a link from the old to the new and vice versa

    How has Andy Robinson been in the pre-season friendlies so far?

    Good luck to him, and Leeds this season. From a Swansea fan. :)

    Of course, if Leeds have an awful start to the season, that padlock may have to be melted at high temperature.

    Because of Gary Mac and the fact he was excellent in his short time at LFC (I would have loved him as assistant to Rafa or a coach) I say yes you will get promotion, and possibly as champs yes.

    For him I hope you do :)

    Leicester have by far the strongest team in that division, so i'd expect them to be champions, Leeds should go up as runners-up though.

    Starting a season like we did last year can turn out to be a bad thing. I'd prefer a slow-burner 'til christmas, hovering around places three/four and powering on toward May.

    Also, title winning is not the holy grail here. Gmac clearly has a passing-creative ethos which was semi-manifest by the players in his first 5 months as boss. Given the choice I'd take promo through play-offs with said style over Champions with the long ball crap that took us on that incredible winning spree pre-christmas last year.

    Edit: if the mods are to unlock & re-name that old thread it should be to something generic like "Leeds United Supporters Thread".

    I have twice requested it be unlocked or merged they have declined to both requests

    I have now requested a name change to " Leeds United Supporters Thread "

    See what their response is .

    I feel confident that we will go up automatically. I hope so, I don't want another Wembley Weekend like we had in May. I feel we are strong enough to go straight up and hope that we are always in the top 2 or three anyway. Sure we will lose games and probably draw too many, but it'll all make for a good season. Hope to get to as many games as possible.
