Great stuff Catman.

One more hurdle to go.

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

wow
just wow
what an amazing night..
could barely sleep..somehow managed to get in 2 hours..then watched nervously for 2 hours..
like catman, every time the ball went into their penalty area my heart stopped...
the howson goal sent me into raptures...must apologise to my neighbours also
Couldnt get back to sleep...and am dead tired now after working a full afternoon/evening..but its all worth it
so proud to be leeds..ups and downs with us...
Have already sent my email to fox/setanta
If we dont get coverage..we're organising a meet up..a mate has paid for a streaming service online and he reckons it hasnt buffered at all..looking to hold a function and hook it up to a big screen...
heres hoping we can avoid the hassle and just get fox to show it

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

Prutts, no that should be Jesus, is a cult hero. Has been very good all season, even though he probably didn't have a great game tonight. Top bloke with a cracking sense of humour who committed to the club in the pre-season when there were serious doubts over the future of the club.

I would love him to score the winner at Wembley.

Glad to hear he's going well.

For us he was always the last player to leave the field after a game because he made a special effort to applaud the fans. He used to make a point of going to all four corners of the ground to thank the supporters which sometimes led to him copping a bit of stick if we had lost or he didn't play well. He's not the most skillful player but he always puts his heart and soul into every minute that he's on the field. Sometimes it can be too much (ie when he attacked the ref and got a 10 match suspension the season we went down) but you can't question his dedication.

Hopefully he'll be playing against us next season.

If ever a man is in need of a haircut it's Prutton. I saw him interviewed this morning, absolutely shocking look.

And Leeds will be playing Doncaster Rovers, who smashed Southend 5-1.

An all Yorkshire final, can't wait!

Should we get up?

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

by some miracle
did anyone on here join the international members club? or have a members card and isnt going to wembley..im desperatley trying to get a ticket..have flights/accom sorted..just need a ticket

 

[Kompany]

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

Mate, I think your best shot is doing the bars unfortunately. There should be 36.000 tickets (general sale starts on thursday if anything's left) - if you spread around you've come all the way from Australia, you should get a fair bit of sympathy.

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

Well it looks like its the net or nothing for next week

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

ATTENTION MELBOURNE WHITES

The final will be shown LIVE this sunday night at one place only

Charles Dickens Tavern- 290 Collins Street
http://maps.google.com.au/maps?hl=en&q=charles%20dickens%20tavern&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wl

No dress code really at this place, probably best not to wear thongs (whose going to do that given its winter)

Kick off is at 12
Expecting a large contigent of people and at the last playoff final against watford, the dickens was closed due to being full at around 11.15 (again a 12 kickoff)

So to guarentee your spot, best to get their early

Bring some cash (for beer of course) and your singing voices, should be a great night.

Any problems/queries please ask in this thread or PM

MOT

Well, the Chucky Dickens it is then.

Come on you Whites!!

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

Would love to make it but I doubt I can get work off on Monday. If I did get the day off, I'd prefer not having to drive then stay in Melbourne as I'd like to enjoy a few drinks instead of having to worry about staying relatively sober!

 

[Hillcrest White]

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

Thinking of flying down for the game as Charles Dickens seems to be the only bloke showing the game. Spoke to them today and they said they were showing it. Do you reckon its a definite to be on?? Can't wait - first 'away' trip in a while!!!!

 

[cfc05]

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

Will be 100% on, IF some sort of authority dosnt choose to take the high moral ground and try and shut it down. (a scum supporter who is a cop maybe)

They have tested the streaming and has worked fine, with little to no buffering!

 

[drewie_rama]

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

i encourage all leeds fans to get down there


however im off to wembley..ticket secured this morning amid the chaos that is the ticketing system and chaos that occured at elland rd

[moomba]

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08

Ha ha, well done. I'm sure you'll have a great time.

I know a few who travelled from Melbourne for our div 3 play-off against the Gills, turned out to be one of the best matches in our history and I'm very jealous that they made the effort.

Still hope you lose though.

Re: Leeds United Thread 07/08
