Re: What Leeds fans are saying
Apart from the historical bollox they don't seem as bullish as I thought they would be.By the way Gringo these threads are great.

Re: What Leeds fans are saying
Whiteswan (Jack perhaps?) quote "...it will be a hostile environment I think....their fans hate us"
Well he's got that right. What he has also got right is that the FA Cup game was the start of their downfall.
They are worried about this one, as are we, but in a good way
Really looking forward to tomorrow and whatever the result, it could well be a night to remember.

Looking at their results, Leeds have struggled more against sides with a bit of bite and an edge.

Re: What Leeds fans are saying
It is gratifying to see that Chris is not representative of Leeds fans, most of whom on that thread seem a fairly sensible bunch making some fair points.
Cant wait for this game.

Re: What Leeds fans are saying
I don't actually mind Leeds. Met a few of their (proper) fans over the years and they're alright.
Always loud when they come and by and large we've got a great record against them.
What's not to like? 😃

I think that board is one of the quieter ones. I'm sure the comments on there are not reflected on waccoe :hehe:

Re: What Leeds fans are saying
Janssen is a big player for them. He was injured last season when they were riding high and we beat them. If still unfit, Leeds will struggle against us defensively.

Re: What Leeds fans are saying
I have no idea how good they are
The names that are popping up scoring for them, I've never heard of nearly all of them

I have a few Leeds fans as mates and they're all good guys. But they can't talk about football without relating it to Leeds constantly which is pretty annoying.

Just trying to think of how much compensation I'd need. It's a lot.

Last season's implosion was worth it though, they really believed it was their year.

I have to disagree with the bit about hating Leeds. They are irrelevant and don't even register.

They dislike us far more than we dislike them.

Watching the highlights of their games, I've noticed they seem piss poor dealing with crosses into the box from both sides lately.
Probably to do with Jannsen being out.
Think if we test them with balls into the box they'll struggle.

Nonsense. Most people are not filled with 'hate' for other clubs regarding and fans of other clubs. It's a ridiculous stereotype.
P.S. I work with several Leeds fans and will be bringing one to the game.

Jannsen will be back tomorrow.

They love to be hated (or even just disliked). It's part of their culture - like Millwall.
I'm happy to carry on disliking Leeds a lot (don't really hate any club) - partly because of the Leeds-Cardiff history and partly because I live in Sheffield and one condition of getting the South Yorkshire visa was that I had to resent Leeds for life!

Exactly, he was missing when we won 2-0 at their place in February - he makes a big difference for them.

He's not 100%, he has a thigh injury. He's a big player for them, so I'd target him early and try and turn their back 4 and make him sprint. Without Jansson, they're not all that at the back.
