A certain someone is a little quiet today about a certain team that lost 1-0 at home, only to be bettered by another certain team that lost 2-1 at home to a certain team near the bottom of the ladder.

Just looked at the top half of the table but couldn't see leeds in there.

They play at home tonight so maybe they'll catch us.

Millwall pushing on a play off spot now.

Of the teams that are up there I just hope it's not the small club Leeds or the foreigners. Still, if we get leeds in the play offs, we know we'll go through.

I suppose a 1-0 defeat on the road is an improvement on a 1-6 thrashing at home.

Leeds 1st and Millwall 3rd bottom. You may be a small club and as you rightly put it "and we know it", but calling your rivals a small club is ludicrous not to mention laughable ( :lol: ), even coming from an enemy supporter. All the rest is hoohaa and Jealousy is a curse my dear watson :wink: :arrow:

It's about the way the conduct themselves, they feel they are the biggest club in the world. They even sing about winning a European Cup.

For years in League One, they felt they had a divine right to be promoted and they kept failing. It became funny, a "big" team in League One that couldn't even get promoted. Look at where they were - European Cup semi finals and where they are now. - only just out of League One. In comparison, they are certainly a "small" club.

They charge Premiership prices for tickets at Elland Road as well. A lot of my mates are Leeds fans and they pay 40 quid a match! When I heard that I couldn't believe it but maybe thats the going rate for that division now?

I wondered how long it would take you. Great result, I'm looking forward to seeing you play the Hammers at the OS. Not sure in which league though.

They're putting a run together now though, this could be the start of ours. Maybe it will be in the premiership next season.

I'll stop dreaming now. It's just what annoys me is we have taken 4 points off QPR this season who are the runaway leaders, yet are still mid table obscurity. Shows we have the team but not the depth.

:roll: Didnt realise that beating the top team entitled you to anything more than 3 points. Wolves are one of only 2 teams to have beaten Man USA this season also, whats your point exactly??? Would much rather lose to the top team twice in a season and have a chance to get promoted than beat them once or twice and achieve alot of shiraz all :wink: :D

Im assuming beating the top team proves you're a better team than beating the bottom team. Kind of obvious really. Would have thought you'd understand that.

And i thought youd understand that beating the top team only entitles you to 3 points and nothing more. No good beating the top teams and then losing to the bottom ones, would of thought you understand that :wink: :roll: :arrow:
