Oh dear, how desperate is it getting? Not so long ago, Leeds fans were convinced that oil money was going to fund a resurgence of the club, with rumours of a stinking rich Arab buying out Master Bates. Instead they got GFH Capital.
And now, hell and damnation, a real oil magnate has come along and bought - Sheffield Wednesday of all clubs! So not only are Leeds no longer the giants of English football that they once considered themselves to be, they are slipping into the third tier of Yorkshire clubs!
It was bad enough playing second fiddle to FA Cup finalists and Premiership stalwarts Hull City Tigers last season; now Leeds fans are having to come to terms with the fact that Wednesday are about to overtake them too! And with a Clough in charge at the Blunted Blades, it is probably only a matter of time before the Off Whites are looking enviously at Shafting United as well!
Bradford City have made it to a Cup Final in living memory, Miserableboro have enjoyed a stint in the Prem more recently than Leeds and with Rotherham now in the same division, Leeds could even find themselves kissing the arses of the Millers!
Managerless, groundless, training-pitch less & piss pot less! Still there's no indignity in playing second fiddle to the mighty Owls. They are, after all, a bigger club, having won more titles, more FA Cups and having won a major domestic trophy more recently than Leeds.
It's no wonder then that Mammadov rejected Leeds in favour of Wednesday.

Eh You should get back to your playgroup friends.
ReplyDeleteI supported leeds since the 60s and you are right in every word you say. . I'm intelligent and wealthy but the average Leeds fan is of limited intelligence and in denial, desperate and dining out still on part glories. . The season ticket holders are killing
ReplyDeleteour club. . They have your money up
front so they take the wee wee out of the fans. . .relegation for us this year
We are also dildo-less and Andy Carroll-less. Life's really not worth living any more.
ReplyDeleteMOT
The supposed topic is mammadov rejecting Leeds yet nowhere in the article you say where mammadov rejected Leeds. By the way, on top of Cellino's millions he has £35m more! Having a cockney judge who's the biggest team in yorkshire is outrageous.. What an a absolute knob you are
ReplyDelete“I am a passionate football fan with enormous respect for English football. I have been looking at investing in England for some time but I was determined to find the right club." From the horse's mouth!
DeletePlease, tell me where the word 'Leeds' is mentioned in that quote? Anywhere? No?
DeleteWere Leeds available when Mammadov was in the market to buy a club? Did Mammadov buy Leeds?
DeleteWhat you're saying there is he rejected every team in the world for Sheffield. You just chose to put Leeds in the headline to guarantee views.
DeleteEvery club is 'available to buy' at the right place, even WHU if they're desperate!
DeleteWe have been linked with lots of super stars that will never come to Leeds and the fans still buy season tickets even though pops is going and no one has been bought yet. ..sheep
ReplyDeleteoh n wst ham have been rejected, by lukaku,lol, no sutprise there
ReplyDelete12.14,it's the 2nd season in a row he's rejected them too. He must have spoke with Stephen Warnock.
Deleteboro are in teeside,u thick twat..........just because wednesday have a rich owner,what does that prove.cellino is rich in is own right.just that we have bigger problems,left by incompetant previous owners.he will sort the mess out,and then we will rise again.you will be saying liverpool is in yorkshire next.
ReplyDeleteAnd of course Liverpool isn't in Yorkshire! Lancashire teams win things!
DeleteYes when was the last time West Ham won anything? Leeds DID win the league BTW (and a few other piss pot trophies). Middlesbrough is in Teeside, Sheffield is in South Yorkshire... Obviously you are not very smart and I'm surprised the nurses let you near a keyboard. Why do you hate Leeds so much, inferiority complex maybe?
DeleteSouth where? Oh, South Yorkshire! Second word is a bit of a giveaway!
DeleteHammersfan, why are you concerned so much with Leeds United? Seems strange the majority of your blog focuses on LUFC. The trolling nature, suggests you are a young boy and not a particularly smart young boy. Maybe you are being bullied at school? You do know that Leeds United have been a much more successful club than West Ham right? Come on little boy, time to grow up.
DeleteBreaking news.. Leeds are interested in Messi and Ronaldo. . . Buy your season tickets now
ReplyDeleteNorwich will buy Leeds and beat up heavily at Elland Road they will go up we will go down... and next year the sides will still buy season tickets. .. We are like battered wives
ReplyDeleteHull isn't in Yorkshire either fool !!!!!
ReplyDeleteCheck your history instead of the newly re-drawn county boundaries!
DeleteCell in o tried to buy Sheffield Wednesday first before Leeds. . .What does that say? Haw haw haw
ReplyDeleteNo I live a few doors up from Norman hunter. . .I'm just realistic about how crap we are these days
Deletezzzz ...
ReplyDeleteWUM ... or should I say WHUM WUM.. neither WHU or the Wendies can consider themselves 'bigger', other than the fact that both clubs have more letters in their names!:)
Cell in o does love Leeds. . He can rob us legally if he can keep out of prison at his upcoming trial. . . Haw haw haw
ReplyDeleteSheffield Wednesday - Massive club. I see Sheffield Wednesday shirts all over the country, I mean I was in Rotherham the other day and I saw TWO lads in Wednesday shirts! Mega club. And all the European competitions SWFC have competed in. Football fans in Europe all know about the great SWFC teams of the past. Names like Walker and Hirst just roll off the tongue. And the mammoth away support! Sell outs week in week out. SWFC - Massive
ReplyDelete750,000 to Brian. . . 950,000 to Haigh. . . The transfer pot is getting smaller
ReplyDeletewell remember this... west ham have never won the top division title... never won the league cup and never won anything in europe either so we might be less successful than sheff wed but bigger than the 'ammers (Sheff wed never won anything in europe either)
ReplyDeleteWell of course you know that West Ham have never won the top division title which must hurt...never won the league cup and never won anything in Europe. We might have less trophies than Sheff Wed but they have never won anything in Europe. Lost count how many finals we've competed in over the years and our most recent success has to be Champions League semi-finalist about 12 years ago.
ReplyDeleteWell, apart from the Cup Winners Cup in 65 which was a more prestigious trophy than the Inter City Fairs Cup - oh and the Inter Toto Cup. Oh and the World Cup in 66 of course, despite carrying that useless tosser Jack Charlton who was only in the team to keep his brother happy!
DeleteWest ham won the world cup?
DeleteIs cockney land its own country now?
Muppet
Ha ha - where is the 'justification' that the Cup Winners Cup was more 'prestigious' ? The Fairs Cup (now EUFA Cup) was a competition for the old 1st Division 'Runners Up' which by definition had the better performing, most consistent clubs in the season qualifying for it. Anyway may I suggest that you go and concentrate on winning the Premiership
DeleteYou sad tool, why do you hate so much? When you stop hating yourself and start loving yourself a little, maybe someone will love you back. We know in your head that you think West Ham won the World Cup in 1966 and if it makes you happy you can believe that, but it does confirm that you are a pathetic, deluded, fool who has wasted 2 years writing inaccurate hate mail, trying to troll fans from bigger clubs. Why don't you try writing something you know about. Football clearly isn't your 'thing'.
DeleteDo you admit that Sheffield Wednesday are a bigger club than West Ham though?
DeleteHa ha ha ha - what a tool!
DeleteIf you were Italian and played in their top tier with wonderful food and hot weather would you come to Leeds with its rain and pie and chips to play in the
ReplyDeletesecond division. .. All these linked with stories are just ludicrous to make fans buy season tickets. . We haven't bought anyone yet. . . No one wants to coach us. . .We don't pay the players on time. . . We haven't bought the ground or our shut training ground yet. .. who the chuff would want to come to Leeds. . Ross will be sold this week to Norwich. . .We will have hunt and Morison up front next year. . .Mouthwatering eh
Leeds has the lowest rainfall of any city in the UK. You're getting confused with Manchester, where it does piss it down all the time.
DeleteLooking forwards to seeing wet spam in 2015
ReplyDeleteBig sams hoofball "army", heading to the championship soon.
Victor ibaro has a hard choice on his hands. . Inter Milan and be in line for more international call ups or Leeds United. . . That's going to be a tough one for him. . .These linked with stories are embarrassing. . We have been linked with over 50 players including non league ones. . . And non want to come
ReplyDeleteLeeds fans are funny . . . West Ham never won. . Hull City never. . . We won the Leeds and district cup in 1826. .Whine . . whine whine. . .Fact is they are in the premier league. . . Get over yourselves
ReplyDeleteFactually incorrect
ReplyDelete"and having won a major domestic trophy more recently than Leeds",
Wednesday won the league Cup in 1991, Leeds won the FIRST DIVISION TITLE in 1992.....
PS. no need to get nasty about big jack
The league cup is a "major" trophy?
DeleteWhat a dreadfully poor written 'blog'
ReplyDeleteYes Cellino tried to buy the Wednesday but Mandaric told the bent lovechild to sling his hook. And look what a nasty crock of filth he caught. Hopefully next time you go bust you will have to start again outside the league and change your name.
ReplyDelete'I'm a West Ham fan, Leeds are a nothing small northern club, won nowt, rubbish crowds, nothing to West Ham, but three quarters of the blogs I post are about Leeds' How about some blogs highlighting and dissecting the issues of similiar sized northern clubs, such as Bradford or Barnsley? Or do you get all tingly and excited at the bites you get?
ReplyDeleteHydrocarbons, baby, not Cornflakes.
ReplyDeleteTYPICAL WEDNESDAY FAN COUNTING YOUR CHICKENS ALREADY!!! I"D GIVE IT A SEASON BEFORE YOU GIVE IT LARGE, YOU'VE NOT BEEN IN THE RACE FOR A DECADE!!
ReplyDeleteKarma for being scummy b**tards, well excited about the Cellino soap opera. Even if Mammadov turns out to be a crack-pot it will still pale in comparison next to Cellino.
ReplyDeleteState of Yorkshire football is turd, but I'd still take being best the of a bad bunch over the worst!
it must piss you off that you do west ham bloggs and you take all that time for one comment
ReplyDeleteDidn't Ross McCormack REJECT West Ham (at least twice)..?
ReplyDelete
