Funny reading this, btw for those that went which chants couldnt they print ![]() A current favourite which gets sang at most aways - - "We don't give a ****, we don't give a ****, we're Leeds United, we don't give a ****" A recent addition re: Grayson and the supposed affair - "He sh*gs who he wants, he sh*gs who he wants, he's Simon Grayon, he sh*gs who he wants" Of course there's the standard Bates Out stuff, which includes - - "Get out of our club, get out of our club, you chelsea *******, get out of our club." And of course Schmeichel got a fair bit of stick - - "Your dads a **** and so are you" - "You fat *******" etc etc Beckford got a great reception. But thinking about it, that involved a song with quite a bit of swearing as well. And then there was "Adam Clayton's ******* brilliant", "Let's go ******* mental" and a few more along those lines Plus there was a Leicester fan with a drum just to the left of the away corner who had quite a lot of songs directed at him, he was a rather "large" fella but seemed to take it all in good spirits tbh. Hadn't really thought about it before but most do seem to involve some profanties....but then most football songs do really, not sure the The Sun would make a point about ours! |

Sad to see our former Manager Jimmy Adamson passed away this morning, although he wasnt the most popular in our history, he did at least take 3 points (when it was 2 for awin) over the Darkside , not that beating them in 70s was any big deal , most clubs did it , but it was nice when we stopped them winning the League in 1980
Here is the song of the time (tonned down a bit for ds Hark now hear united sing the Man u will run away and there will be a Massacre upon the 3rd of May On pitch that is |

Grella was unlucky at Leeds, just as he starting breaking into the first team we signed Max Gradel and Mike Grella went down in the pecking order, he is a good player who will always score plenty of goals whatever team he plays for.......good luck to him.

Yeah I think Grella was unlucky not to get more of a look in at Leeds, I always thought he looked a talented player myself. Unfortunately I think he didn't do himself any favours by turning down the chance to go out on loan to get more regular games, something other players have done and benefited from greatly (Lees, Clayton etc), so I think his attitude led to the management at the club deciding not to stick with him for longer.
But good luck to the lad. |

But good luck to the lad. Considering his age and that he was something a little bit different to the current crop of strikers, I think it was rather daft to get rid of him. |

I assume he thought that he could get into the first team. He couldn't win either way, imo. I just don't think Grayson took a shine to him, remember the likes of Kandol, Dickov and Paynter were all given plenty of chances while Grella got the token odd start.
Considering his age and that he was something a little bit different to the current crop of strikers, I think it was rather daft to get rid of him. I think he was also unlucky because we switched to playing 4-5-1 for most of last season, and he's not really suited to the lone striker role so he had even less chance once we were playing 1 up front. In a 4-4-2 I think he can do a decent job in a support striker role - showed signs of being a pretty skillful and creative player as well as a good finisher. Will be interesting to see how he gets on anyway, I can see him scoring a lot of goals with regular games. |

I'm happy to snatch a win when we are not firing on all cylinders....2 away wins on the trot.
![]() I wonder what O'Brien's problem is, players have to take some stick if they are under performing and Andy was not playing well at the start of the season but he knuckled down in training and was man of the match against Leicester.

R.I.P Gary Speed.
A true legend who took his own life on the 27th November 2011. I will always have a drink for Gary on this day which is also my Birthday. |
