Optimistic Nut Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Find it interesting that Leeds have actually only ‘won’ it once in the 8 years so far, like. Came in as reigning champions, been in it the whole time, and only once popped up as winners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 You'd guess they'll nab it a few more times as you go through the early 00s where the title stays within the PL in Universe 1? EDIT: Always forget just how quickly that stonking young team was dismantled. Only three more seasons left of them in the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 He's following who the champion is if the title holder was decided ala boxing. From 1992. So Leeds won the last Division One. The next title holder was the first team to beat Leeds in the PL era. And then the next title holder is the team who beat the team that beat Leeds. And on, for many, many years.

SEMTEX Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I'm certain it's all an elaborate way to justify Mike Ashley's tenure as NUFC owner when we end up with the most title reigns. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
