You don't actually have a reason to at all.

Arn't you a bit embarrassed by the attention you give us?

you have 11 threads started about Leeds

No hatred from me, but the behaviour from some of your supporters at the Vic the other week left me hoping you'd lose in the play offs.

thats another thing I don't get, they didn'treally go in your end to have a go, they went to watch Leeds.

I'll give you the odd few who started singing were idiots and deservedly got a kick in.

I was in the town end, kept myself to myself and didn't cheer when Leeds scored, I just wanted to watch the game, no reason to dislike.

2 of the lads who run over the pitch to try get in the Leeds end were on my bus both 17, not trouble causes at all just shit themselves when it kicked off because a few Leeds idiots started singing.

I don't really know what the big problem was, they wern't trying to take your end.

Do you know what I'm sure I heard them singing "we hate Chelsea" tonight!!?

Surely we have as much right to hate Leeds as they do to hate Chelsea!?

I mean Leeds and ourselves probably won't entertain Barcelona next season or Man United for that matter, or even Chelsea will but we'll certainly play each other twice at least.

we hate scum have a search on youtube and you will find plenty of we all hate Leeds scum from them, its deffinatly not one sided. one example from 08 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFi0aSzPjD0

I don't hate chelsea, a lot of Leeds do, as a lot of chelsea hate Leeds.

thats the other scum one from the same day they are playing in the champions league final last year, singing about league 1 Leeds

Because you are so attention seeking.

Banner.....Champions of Europe

Very tossy, makes you a laughing stock.

fucking ell, how can that wind you up? just be happy knowing in you head we arn't really champions of europe, would it annoy you if southend sang champions of europe even though they arn't.

Where is the love?

Come now lets all be friends

It doesn't, but it seems to wind you lot up that you've got to come and play 'the likes of Hartlepool' at football grounds 'the likes of the Vic'.

Oh how the mighty have fallen and revealed themselves to be mortal.

no, we are happy we have a club, we might not have had one a couple of years ago, don't care if we play hartlepool or Liverpool really.
I don't care about Leeds being hated from every team in the country who mean nothing to Leeds at all. However, I can see most of you on here arn't the usual idiots you get on football teams messgae boards, yet still dedicate so much of your posting to hating Leeds. You treat Leeds like a big deal and something special and then moan about them being big headed.

the fact that you have to ask says why

no 15 point penalty to blame this year and you stil couldnt do it

patronising, smug, egotistical etc etc etc

woody, your a sensible guy, and you seem like you have your head screwed on right...

The only problem is, i think your in a minority of about 0.1% of your stupid fuckin daft supporters who still think your premier league.

Too good for Brian Clough eh.

It's the way the media fawn over them that gets my (escape)goat, even tonight when they were interviewing Grayson after the match, the first thing the gadgie from SKY said was something like 'So this big club have to spend another season in League One'.

note to media types they are here because they deserve to be, it doesn't matter on the size of the club so don't go patronizing the rest of us

They gave it the old "THE BIGGEST CLUB IN LEAGUE ONE AREN'T GOING UP" on the commentary with about 30 seconds to go.
No, Leicester are currently the biggest club in league one, then peterbrough, then Milton Keynes, then Leeds.
Or are they going off highest attendance..if so, are Derby County the biggest side in the championship?
Or are they going off what they've won? If so, does that make the barcodes and mackems the sixth and seventh biggest teams in the country?
Does that make Leeds & Huddersfield the equal best teams in league one because they've both won the English League title 3 times?
The same amount of times as Chelsea may I add!
Judging by this evidence, Leeds are infact as "big" as Chelsea.
It'll be interesting next season in league one.
Fook Norwich, Charlton, Southampton & Leeds.


P.S. WHAT THE FOOK IS A BIG CLUB ANYWAY.
WE'RE ALL IN THE SAME DIVISION NEXT YEAR, START WITH THE SAME POINTS AND ALL THAT.

its nothing personal, its just that you are the nearest team to us in our division and have been for two coming up 3 seasons. Its what happens when two teams near each other, in the same league play each other for example

Premiership
Manyoo v Liverpool or
Arsenal Spurs

Championship next season will be
WBA v Cov
or
Forest V Derby

and in our league
Hartlepool united v Leeds United will probably be the big telly draw
tho Bristol and exeter might catch some peoples breath

See?
Its all to do with the level you are at

there are many reasons some pools fans hate leeds.

the fact that your chairman is a cock who thinks because of your history have every god given right to just walk out of this division.

Your Fans also think like this and think they dont deserve to play little clubs like little old hartlepool.

The fact your fans turned up here for a pre season friendly and brought the town to stand still cause they decided to act like a tasmanian devil and tear the streets to bits.

The arrogance of 95% of leeds supporters fcuk everyone else in the league off, as you still think your a big club. You are NOT and the sooner you start to accept it and stop charging premier league prices in your shit hole of a stadium the better.

I for one wont be paying nearly 30 quid to go there next season

I dont hate Leeds either.

I was at the Manure Arse European Cup semi final the other week........the manure fans were singing about their hatred of Leeds........which is even dafter if you ask me.

But I also agree with PJ. The Leeds fans the other week were just foookin horrible. Sorry Woody, but I thought they were. And they arent exactly friendly at Elland Road either.

But dont take it personally.

The fact that your official website let people make applications for tickets to the Play-Off final in advance of the semi-finals even being played, and already organised the prices to charge for coaches to Wembley strikes me as rather arrogant.

http://www.leedsunited.com/page/LatestTicketNews/0,,10273,00.html

Being organised for these things is one thing, but publicising it seems a touch conceited.

Well after the disaster they had last year in distributinmg tickets it made sense to be prepared should we have got to wembley.

It would have been foolish on the clubs part had they not planned and advertised tickets plenty of time in advance, with the amount of people who would have wanted to go.

woody, you're ok as is that white light bloke...it's nice for you's that you'll be able to return to this board for at least another season!!

unlucky!

we keep slatin leeds for singin of their hatred to manure etc, but we have a few nob heads who like to sing about us hating Darlo.

I dont see the point in these sill chants.

True I guess. We will never play Darlow again like.

With Leeds, Charlton, Soton (c BBC teleprinter) and Norwich due to visit the Vic in the coming season, there are a lot of supporters dusting off the phrase "the likes of Hartlepool".

Theire attitude is probably frustration at being an ex-big club.

Well put chip.

And as everyone knows, we love to have a meet up with visiting fans in the Mill House Pub. Sadly, Leeds fans are exempt from that.

It just isnt worth the hassle is it?

We had great craic with Sheff Wwed fans, Forest, Leicester, West Ham fans etc etc.

Only Darlow, and now Leeds are deemed to be too much of a problem.

Chip has nailed it in his post.

I think Leeds secretly like playing in our league. It gives them a chance to lord it over all of the other, insignificant teams

In fairness, if anyone was to sing about hating Man Utd at The Vic, i'd happily join in.

Leeds have something about them that is not endearing in the slightest. Big club mentality bullsh!t. You are in this division because you deserve to be in this division.

I reckon we'd have got into the play-offs if we had the same favouring from the refs as Leeds have had. Says it all really!

Ken Bates.

Is that a joke?

I believe we have had 1 penalty which we have scored from in the league this season. We also had the beckford 3 game ban for the elbow which he was booked during the game for.

I suppose I can understand your problem with a lot of our fans, but we havn't had any help from refs at all - we arn't the M*n U of league 1.

I know cos man u will win there league

suppose I set you up for that

I read in one of the London papers today that Leeds couldn't restrain themselves last night, intimidating young Millwall kids, mums etc after the game. That's why nobody likes them, koontz the lot of them.

My girlfriends brother had been to preston park the day pools played leeds, with his 3 kids, all toddlers, under 5, he got the train back into hartlepool about half 5, station was full of leeds fans.

Now you'd think a man with 3 kids, coming into h'pool, not even at the game, would be exempt from any abuse, not from these lot, they hurled abuse at him, threw cans of lager in his direction, and even 2 chased after him.

Thats why people hate leeds.

I've seen us play you 4 times in the last 2 seasons. In each of these occasions, your status has afforded you a huge bias from the referees.

Are you trying to convince me otherwise? You're wasting your time if you are. Don't take it personally, the same could be said for all the "big" teams we come up against, be it home or away.

agreed jish. If Barker had been playing in a Leeds shirt that header "saved" by Ankergren would have been awarded as a goal - 100% cast iron fact. Similarly, the block on the line with the hand would have been given to them as a pen - no way would we have been let off with it. We are used to this now - we get this treatment at Scunthorpe FFS

THE HOME END are for Home Supporters THE AWAY END are for away supporters...SIMPLE!!!

I have to say Leeds getting beat has cheered me up massively after our poor season last year, add to that the release of the clown ALB and the signings of Adam Boyd and McSweeney and I think Pools have had a decent fortnight.....

Oh and add to that MK Donkeys getting beat as well, Boro almost certain to go down, Newcastle and Sunderland in with a shout of relegation and I think times have been a lot worse.....

Don't forget the Darlow situation.
