Spent the dark days 89/90 - 1991 part of 91/92 in the paddock. The whole of that miserable 90/91 just about there and my first ever game was a few steps forward from that very spot on a similarly drizzly day. Does look safe-standing-esque in that photo by comparison. No dip at the front, the hazard lines, railings. Thought that was more of a 94/95 thing or maybe that was the first time I noticed it sitting opposite courtesy of Barnsley bringing next to no support for the league cup tie.

Reckon its the far end of the Leazes end next to the entrance in the corner. There was building work going on at the time in the paddock, where I initially thought it might be in the opposite corner, looks a bit too worn to be brand new.

Overseas and any stimulant and viola.

That's what worries me. Justice not prevailing.

59/60k could be agreeable now but this is just the start and we'd be selling ourselves short long-term. We cant sell ourselves short if/when we expand like the 90s then requiring an expensive extension instead of building bigger in the first place.

Ah yes those magical European nights. Like the last time they were in Europe in 2017/18 when they got 17,000 against Atalanta and 27,000 against Lyon.

If they sign MacAllister for 60m it'll be £100m so far in 2023 and £200m in 11months. No ceiling c**ts

Bit too MotM being the goal scorer and driver of the day being the race winner for my pallet

When Luton were being relegated out of the topflight last, Leeds were being crowned champions and Leicester had last day heartbreak

Wont be dressed up as this but that was marginally less undramatic than expected.

Typical end of season fare. Last time we qualified for the Champions League this was a 2-2 draw at West Brom with a much changed side and the time before that a comfortable loss at Southampton

A Bruno Brooks midfield. What next Keith Chegwin defence?

Disappointing level of criticism of the players (and manager). Will never get a better chance to chill the fuck out and deal with the imperfections of a football match that have always been and will always be there.

Intriguing

Mitro ffs you unreliable radge

Could be an old school daft last day of the season scoreline or two today, way its going.

Leeds could do an Everton circa 94 yet. Based on no logic obviously. Situation is pretty identical. Everton for Sheffield United, Leiceter for Ipswich and Leeds for Everton, even gone an early goal down and everything. Whilst we played a relaxed final game having already qualified for Europe.

Nice story still I suppose. As it happens found out would have preferred Coventry. Was at the 94 cup game there, got on the tele pre-match head stuck in the programme, doubt will ever get back with half the away end cut off now. Even then with everybody bar Walsall, Millwall and Scunthorpe at their original stadium just about it was weird. Thought of the town as more of a dump than the stadium iirc. Remember Ruel Fox, cup tied, sitting by the tunnel pretty close to us and a bloke with a trumpet directly in front.

I was thinking Scott Hall's hall of fame acceptance speech when I seen it and seems to be. Another excuse for..

Can't get vexed by the current qualifiers mind. Especially anything new (Barcelona and Feyenoord are so bourgeois). Celtic aside as I want to treat it like an adventure and not get roped in to any of that other stuff.

Were the shithole not them, I read so on RTG the other day. Must be accurate.

Had no doubts from thirty-seconds from the end onwards

Players and staff have worked their balls off. Irrespective of us or the club they deserve it for themselves.

Now I can relax and be all altruistic about it Why is it in every game like that, the other team gets a chance, usually at the death, like that. Its like an unwritten law. Most one-sided 0-0 since Italy v England in Euro 2012? Would have surpassed it but that last few minutes.
