Leeds' Wembley countdown - 3 days to go

Wembley
By Andy Baggott
May 22 2008
There are three days to go until Wembley, and the excitement is building. Last night was apparently the Champions League Final, which was obviously the warm up act for Sunday’s main event. The City of Leeds is now gearing up to a massive Play Off Final.
Elland Road saw chaotic scenes yesterday as fans queued through the night for tickets.  The queues started around lunchtime on Tuesday, and by the time the ticket office opened at 9.00 on Wednesday morning, there were an estimated 10,000 people in the line.  The night saw a lot of banter with songs belted out, camp fires burning, and many games of football and cricket played.  Desperate fans near the back of the queue kept trying to force their way to the front, and unfortunately some managed to push in.  The ticket office eventually shut late afternoon, and many were left disappointed, with all 36,000 tickets snapped up.  Many headed over to Doncaster to see if there were any spare there, but the sheer volumes of Leeds supporters who went over led to the Doncaster ticket office suspending their sales to ensure that the tickets stayed in the right hands… Much more build up here as the week goes on…

After Sundays feck up which by the way was the biggest feck up since Dunkirk,I just had to let my thoughts be heard,We had no game plan,no formation & no idea.Doncaster had the lot.Beckford thinks he's turned into Thierry Henry overnight with his little flicks & his laziness more than half of sundays team wouldnt have been good enough for the championship had we got there.Surley there must be better youngsters in our ranks ready to make the step up.We must now regroup & blood these youngster in pre season.They will need experience throw them in at the deep end like Oleary had to do the situation was forced upon him but in the long run i think the club benefited from this.I hope Macca is given the time & money by Bates to build a squad to win the league next season,I Now the play offs are exciting but for fecks sake lets go straight up as CHAMPIONS you all know as well as i do Leeds dont do finals.Thats all for now from a nearly 50 yr old disgruntled LEEDS FAN,PS As the song goes i ve seen most of or nearly all of the ups & downs.COME ON LEEDS.
