Over the past few weeks, even the most ardent of Leeds Utd supporters would have glanced at the Championship league standings, and given up hope on Leeds finishing in the top 2 to gain automatic promotion to the lucrative Premier League. I must say, I too have been guilty of consigning Leeds to finish out of the top 2, instead only vying for the 4 playoff spots. However, one realizes that no matter what, it ain't over till it's over. So early this morning, Sheffield Utd -- currently occupying the 2nd spot which belongs to Leeds -- crashed to a 3-2 defeat against QPR. Coupled with Leeds' amazing 2-1 victory (note: the Leeds Utd score update section on the right is as updated as it comes), this puts Leeds only 8 points behind Sheffield Utd, with a game in hand, and with 10 games left to play. For those soccer cocks out there who dun know what a game in hand means, it refers to Leeds having played 1 game less, and thus having 1 more match to play to pick up points. And what would u have thought it was, that the Leeds players hold a game (whatever that means) when they play in matches, ala holding a rifle in hand as u walk through the ghetto district. So as long as Sheffield Utd continue dropping points, and Leeds pick up maximum points from their remaining games, come May 2006, we shall all be Marching on Together toward the Premiership, where Leeds can once again kick the asses of Man Utd, and renew the War of the Roses!!!!! Isn't that more exciting than Spurs-Arsenal, Man Utd-Man City or even Liverpool-Everton? C'mon, the Premiership is where Leeds belongs, and Leeds is who everyone wants to beat!!!!!!!!
