Report from inside a Leeds pub...

The Bubble

Guest
Circumstances meant that I had to watch the game today in a Leeds pub. It wasn’t something I was relishing…still I thought it wouldn’t be that bad if I kept my mouth shut. It did however confirm a number of things about Leeds fans….

Confirmed Assumption Number One: All Leeds fans are thugs…
Before a ball was kicked, as the players lined up in the tunnel there were calls for ‘Smithy’ (or the Little Prick as I prefer to call him) to ‘nut’, ‘put one on’ and to ‘twat’ Keano. Now come on…I mean who would win in a fight between a Rottweiler and a Poodle? What I want to know is how the hell can O’Dreary continue to claim ‘he is being victimised’ when the Leeds fans seem to actively encourage him to be a c*nt?

Confirmed Assumption Number Two: All Leeds fans are twats…
From the kick-off Beckham (who received a good reception at Elland Road on Wednesday) bore the brunt of their abuse. Now I cant expect the Leeds locals to fall to their knees in praise; but shouts such as ‘break his fecking legs’, are just ridiculous. I’m all up for putting club before country, but hoping your national captain has his legs broken just eight weeks before the World Cup!...well thats just wrong. Leeds fans are twats.

Confirmed Assumption Number Three: All Leeds fans are fickle...
Following our second, there were at least three or four shouts for Martyn to be subbed!! I actually couldn’t believe this. True he parried the initial shot, but he’s Englands number one. Yet this didn’t stop at least two Leeds fans appealing for Robinson to be brought on. Strangely enough, following a fine safe from Martyn in the second half (from Scholes), there were chants of ‘Englands number one’. Leeds fans are fickle.

Confirmed Assumption Number Four: Leeds fans (unintentionally) have a sense of humour...
In the second half, one of the locals broke into a chorus of ‘Posh Spice is a slapper…’ I can remember a couple of verses, including '...she has a large veruca and when she's shagging Beckham she thinks of Mark Viduka'
Which did half amuse me. This was greeted with a large round of applause. No sooner had that finished, than Beckham went on a surging run down the right, crossed it to Giggsy and made it 4-1. I sat there rather smugly.

Confirmed Assumption Number Five: All Leeds fans are violent thugs or liars...
Following a spirited Leeds fight-back, come the final whistle a few of them stood up and proclaimed ‘Right. Lets go twat some Mancs.’ One made a dart for me, only to be intercepted by a bouncer, while about ten-fifteen others made for the door. Now whether they were indeed going to ‘…twat some Mancs’ or they were going home with their tails between their legs, remains to be seen.

Either way, its confirmed my assumptions that Leeds fans are scum. Today was also the first time in a while that I’ve heard Munich comments.

He will.

One thing about Marching - he's usually very fair.

The Bubble, how did they find out that you was a Man Utd fan. I can't believe how you kept calm in the leeds crowd and how did you stop yourself from celebrating?

It was blatantly obvious when I was the only one in the pub who didnt cheer when they scored.

I like my knee-caps where they are.
 
In short, the majority of Leeds fans are scum. I´ve only ever come across one decent Leeds fan.

Too right. Ive always believed that there must be a few good 'uns in every batch...I mean we all know City fans you can have a laugh with...even the occasional 'dipper is capable of a little respect. Im a student and had to spend much of the last 18 months in Leeds...But Ive NEVER met a sheep fan who you can a bit of banter with. That to me is just sad.

Marching? He's the resident Leeds fan isnt he? Is he gonna blow my argument about all Leeds fans being twats out of the water?

Could do. He's generally reasonable, and even complimentary.

I think he's a closet red meself.

Im a bit sceptical about any fans from other teams who put more than the occasional post on here. Still it shows what we already know...THEY ARE JEALOUS AS feck.

No. Marching is happy to be a Leeds fan.

He just recognises that the Manchester United supporters are nicer. :)

(And he's here now, watching.....)

Dream on Liv.....reading the likes of Bubba, Rosie and Gay4orce, Blade and :eek: even my mate Jens, I think I will stick with the square- balling, lip-smacking, thirst-quenching, beer-drinking, pie-eating, white-watching, bond-holding, Yorkshire-loving, Chelsea-loathing, Man Utd-hating, shirt-waving, arm-saluting, chest-exposing, Leeds fans!

Some little Mancky twat called Bubba or Bubble ;) said I was jealous of Man Yoo....toooo true mate! Any fan that says they aren't are lying - all fans, me included, would love to celebrate winning the PL most years and winning the CL in style.

This does not make me a closet Red though Liv...and why do you Reds live in closets anyway?

I did have a sneaky feeling Leeds might win yesterday but that was before I knew Rio was out and Ole was in, before Martyn decided to include the regular give-a-worldclass-striker-a-chance in his game and spliied the ball and we before we lost a Kewell that seemed up for a game for a change.

These are reasons we were more likely to lose but don't tell the whole story...MU were better overall and wanted it more, as fecking usual! At 1-1 I thought we were better and might win but to go 2-1 and quickly 3-1 down killed it...4-1 and I fought off the temptation to shove one of my MU mates heads down a toilet and went to the bar next door to drown my sorrows instead. Then I heard the roar of a Leeds goal and returned to watch a Leeds fight back....I had to look that one up in the history books as we dont do fight backs usually.

Anyway, I enjoyed it while it lasted and it encouraged me to keep the faith and the white flag flying but I came away thinking that MU might have a shit end to the season. Arse and Poo win and IF they keep winning MU might come second shock horror.....ONLY to MU is that failure!

Just as a matter of interest Bubba of Wigan...I watched the game in a small Yorkshire Dales village pub where everyone knows each other. I was with around 50-60 mates evenly split between Leeds, MU and Newcastle supporters and there was no trouble...lots of banter and Leeds fans telling Battye to tw@t Beckham and MU fans telling Keane to tw@t Battye and Newcastle fans telling everyone to tw@at everyone else. There were lots of Posh and Becks songs from everyone and NOBODY mentioned Munich and after the game I bought my MU mates a drink.

Leeds fans are not all the same mate just like MU fans aren't...look at Livvie ;)

Pleased you had a good day out Stoned...get home safely from the White Hart? :p

????

Obviously he should have tried to fill his team with cricketers or racing drivers. Allocating 11 footballers to each position on the field is a damn stupid idea. I mean, putting a striker up front just because we've got one......

Fair play mate...Many supporters (not just Leeds fans) cant admit that.

I dont doubt it. I watched it in a pub in Headingley...Its one I frequent a couple of times a week during term and its full of fans from loads of clubs up and and the country. Obviously yesterday it was full to the brim with locals.

I suppose what Im saying is that, we all know we're hated (which isn't a bad thing) <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" /> but I was just taken a back by the level of hatred. Ive seen plenty of fights at games and more than enough in pubs...but these never seem as bad because its two-sided. Yesterday was just an unrelenting barrage of abuse. <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" /> <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" /> <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" />

I'm constantly taken aback by the level of hatred at Leeds fans. If I visit the UK again I'd be scared to mention I'm a Leeds fan.

Guess who I was thinking of when I said "I´ve only ever come across one decent Leeds fan" ;)

Tickets would have been a bit expensive. And I wouldn´t want to sit among Leeds fans for a Leeds v United match.
