Hapoel on Alan Smith:
Hapoel centre-half Yossi Domb called him “a thug”, whilst their skipper Shimon Gershon suggested the Smithy was the “dirtiest I have played against in Europe”.

yeah alan smith.

Result [R]
















4-1 Leeds United!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alan Smith 4 Goals....

5-1 Agg.....



Man did anyone else wonder where these guys have been all year?.... :P Anyway the funny part of this whole 4 goal game is that we really didn't play that well.. I know 4 goals is good, but if we had controlled the middle better we would of scored at least 6 today... But it was still nice to see us play a game like this... They could of easily lost faith after conceding that early goal...


But most importantly this was the best game we've played since the Man U game... Lets hope they can keep it going into this weekend...

[Maczebus]

Missed various parts of the game - did Bowyer get injured or is my fantasy league just pissing me around.

It says he's injured - didn't think he was so I'll keep him - still got to get rid of Woodgate though - which is a shame.

[Captain Splarg]

Bowyer is just coming back into form and had a good match today.

Smith did his usual preformance and was deserving of his goals (the 2'nd one was hilarious!)

I'm so very satisfied with this.


Super Smudger
Super Leeds

Smith hits back with four goals. Maybe next time Shimon Gershon will keep his mouth shut.

Yes. Yes ! Yes !!!

I've been forced to keep away from scorelines this week in order to watch Leeds -W'ham, so I was clueless about this..


i've been so hard on Smithy the last two years but that kid always pulls something brilliant out of his ass when I am ...so...

You SUCK ALAN SMITH!!
