Watch out for the best supporters in the English game.We have followed our team through thick and thin and have never wavered in our support.Just wait for the new season to start and listen to the passion.

I remember the end of the 93/94 season - i think it was - when we played you on the last day at your place and took up two stands of your ground while you had the other two.

If you think holiganism is so great try getting flares dropped on you along with piss and anything else they could get their hands on.


Next season all Premiership clubs will be able to experience this in the luxery of the Steve Bull Lower Tier!

WBA were also one of the loudest sides to come to Elland Road this season as well. Really a shame that they didn't have a board that wanted to give the manager money so they could stay in the premiership. i'll miss them at least.




I went to every Leeds match in the league this season, apart from Soton at Elland Road (out of the country). This is what i remember from this season... (away = at elland road)


Arsenal:
Home: Very quiet. This might have been because they saw the title slipping completely away from their grasp though
Away: They weren't especially loud, but they were having a grand old time. Beat us 4-1 and it was probably the best football i have seen in my life

Aston Villa:
Home: Quite dead. the match was one of the most boring i have ever seen though. I don't think we were loud at all either
Away: It was the last day of the season, so their fans were out to have a good time. we won 3-1, but their fans were having a great time. Good singing..... maybe they were just happy to get out of Birmingham for a bit though....

Birmingham City:
Home: At home they were very loud as well. This helped their side to a "shock" (it was then...) victory over us. Should be fun to goto next season. One of the best atmospheres if i remember right
Away: I honestly can't remember.... i know the score was 2-0 to Leeds though.

Blackburn:
Home: quiet
Away: quiet -- nothing really special to say about them

Bolton:
Home: I'm sure it was different at the end of the season, but we really shut them up with a 3-0 win
Away: They had a great time. Decent amount of singing... they won 4-2 as well

Charlton:
Home: Very quiet.... it was 3-1 at the half, and 6-1 after 90. Their fans did applaud Harry Kewell's goal, and then the Leeds team afterwords. I've always liked Charlton fans
Away: A great day for them (like most teams that came to Elland Road) they won 2-1 with an injury time goal. I can't remember anything that made their fans stand out.... i guess they couldn't have been too bad then... (not anything special though)

Chelsea:
Home: quiet until the 87'th min when they finall took the lead after being down 1-0 and 2-1. They did wake up after being treated to a magic overhead kick from Gudjohnsen
Away: It was a cold december night, and if it wasn't for the fact that they weren't celebrating the Leeds goals, i wouldn't have known they were there!

Everton:
Home: again, they beat us, but were very quiet.
Away: they did make a fair bit of noise. Most of it after Rooney came on as a sub... he the scored the only goal of the game

Fulham:
Home: Pathetic
Away: More Pathetic

Liverpool:
Home: "3-1, and you still won't sing" was the song of the afternoon. I haven't heard such silence since going to Old Trafford!
Away: They always seen to make a better account of themselves away. They got into it and have a good sound, won 1-0 as well

Man City:
Home: Again, not really loud, but they did beat us....
Away: They were in good voice for the first match of the season, but then we showed them how to sing and play football.... 3-0 win.

Man U:
Home: haha, don't make me laugh! If it wasn't for the away supporters, Old Trafford would be just as loud on matchdays as it is on a tuesday morning when they turn on the sprinklers.
Away: They said "united" a few times. Then they got beat.

Middlesbrough:
Home: While not being very good, They are a fun bunch of people... must be all the fumes they breathe on a daily basis
Away: They were quite loud this year, and then beat us 3-2

Newcastle:
Home: I think we shut them up pretty well. We outsung them the entire match, and then won 2-0
Away: They got their revenge. They were louder this time, and gave us a thrashing on the pitch

Southampton:
Home: I think these guys even have WBA beat. Both seasons i've been to St. Marys. I think they have the best singing fans in the premiership now.

Sunderland:
Home: Sprits were low for them. Even us, who were crap at the time, won 2-1. Milner scored a goal making him the youngest ever premiership goal scorer.
Away: They weren't too bad, actually i remember them being kinda loud... just their usually FTM songs though.

Spurs:
Home: dreadful. All they do now is chant "Keano" (not just against us)... I'm glad for that.. .they finally have a song to sing. All they do is complain. Worst fans in the league by far
Away: crap. typical spurs performance from them

WBA:
Home: Very loud for the 90 min. You could see how much being in the premiership meant to the players and fans. both gave it their all for 90 min. On the pitch, Leeds won 3-1.... in singing.... WBA comprehensively won... and were were loud as well!
Away: Again, what good support... they knew they were going to go down, but still they sung their hearts out. I hope they can make it back up next season. that would be great

West Ham:
Home: We beat them 4-3.... they were quiet until it was 4-3 (it was 4-1). They might have been louder if we weren't handing them a thrashing for most of the match. Then again, they were crap last season as well
Away: More crap... this time we only won 1-0 though.



I hope i've remembered everything right.. it has been a long season.... I'm very glad it is over.

Ok - I have to take the bait here - you lot were SILENT at the lane and we totally outsang you at elland road, where you were without doubt the worst home fans i have ever seen - spurs have got a great away support-we always sell out our allocation and make a lot of noise but everyone is determined to see us as whinging and fickle. Get the northern chip off your shoulder and try singing at a home game - it makes things so much more fun!
