SUPER LEEDS UNITED

Advantages: LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS
Disadvantages: none at all

...I have been an avid Leeds supporter since the age of 6. I went to my first ever game at the age of 6 when the mighty whites took on Chelsea and murdered them 4-0 on the 14th of October 1994. I can remember when the first goal went in. I actually missed it. There was a goalless first half and me and my uncle had gone to get a pie at half time. Unfortunately the whole of Eland Road did at the same time. We got our pies just as the whistle blew and were running back to our seats when we heard the ground rejoice. LEEDS HAD SCORED! It was a pity I missed it. By writing this review I have broken a promise I made to myself. I said I was NOT going to write another review unless I would get paid for it, but seeing Manchester United being the most popular club made me sick. I just had to write an opinion about my beloved Leeds...

Leeds United's Champions League Campaign 2000.01

Advantages: Getting to the semi finals
Disadvantages: None!! - it was that good

.... On a rainy Wednesady night Elland Road (the home of Leeds United) invited AC Milan. Leeds left it late but in the 89th minute Lee Bowyer struck the ball 30 yards out and it slipped into the bottom corner of the net!! Leeds United 1-0 AC Milan Leeds were hoping to repeat their herorics of AC Milan against Beskitas at Elland Road. The match started off brightly with a goal after 5 minutes. Then the goals just flowed with them coming from all directions from Viduka, Bakke, Matteo and Wilcox. The match ended up 6-0 to Leeds united and proved yet another memorable night in the Champions League. The next two matches were both draws with a 0-0 draw with Beskitas in Turkey and back at Elland Road a 1-1 draw with Barcelona. Leeds were seconds away from qualifying to the next group with a game spare but seconds from the end - after Lee Bowyers strike...

Review of Leeds United

Leeds, Trails.

Advantages: Great players.
Disadvantages: Consistancy

...On paper the current Leeds Utd squad is one of the best sides in the Premiership, certainly good enough to qualify for some kind of European competition next term. Unfortunately football is a game played on grass, not on paper. Sorry for such a corny cliche to start with but it is true. David O'Leary has stamped his own style on the side as manager, since taking over from George Graham almost 2 years ago. Spending £18M on the young but talented Rio Ferdinand has made him a well known figure in the game but will this prove to be the signing which loses him his job? It is true that £18M is a lot for any player, especially a central defender but there are good reasons why he has been brought in. O'Leary has often mentioned he wants to play the rather ambitious 5-3-2 formation using wing backs with 3 central defenders. Now he...

Review of Leeds United

Leeds have the foundations

Advantages: quality squad, class players in key positions
Disadvantages: will the schedule take its toll again on the young players?

...midfield (why wasnt he with England in Euro 2000?) and players like Lucas Radebe and Jonathan Woodgate in a defence backed up by a keeper like Nigel Martyn - Leeds have the foundations for success over the next few years...

Review of Leeds United

A good variation of a traditional shirt

Advantages: The collar, symmetry
Disadvantages: quite thick, not very durable

...I am not actually a Newcastle fan, but I moved there to go to uni a few years ago. Living near the ground I decided to watch them a few times and managed to get my hands on this shirt. Here's what I found Comfort This shirt is very comfortable to wear around the house as well as to play football in. It is not the lightest shirt in the world but still does not weigh you down or overheat you if you are playing football. Style The shirt has the traditional black and white stripes which go well with the Adidas black and white stripes down the sleeve. There is a black collar which looks very smart, and the manufacturer logo, club badge and sponsor are all central. Durability. I have owned this shirt since mid-2007 and it has lasted quite well. There is some wear-and-tear and the sponsor logo is beginning to peel but I can still wear it to...

Review of Newcastle United Home Shirt 2007/09

man united away shirt 06/07

Advantages: YOUR FRIENDS WILL BE JEALOUS OF YOU!
Disadvantages: none

...The 06/07 manchester united shit is a sleek, stylish design which is very lightweight and confortable. While you are running around playing football you will feel like a true football player with this shirt, you will be the envy of the school, your friends will be jealous. Were wondering what aig is while i was talking to you? well anyway it stands for American International Group, an American insurance corporation. in case i didnt mention i own this shirt and find it very confortable and fun to play in. the gold rim around your neck does not rub around your neck. In most t-shirts it rubs around my neck but for some reason this had no effect i wore it for about 3 hours for 3 times a week because thats how many times i have football, and i didnt itch one little bit so there you have it a shirt that has everything from confort to...

Review of Nike Manchester United Away Football Shirt

Leeding the field

Advantages: Squad packed with talent
Disadvantages: Need maybe 2 more seasons to develop

...Leeds United are one of the most exciting teams in English football at the moment - they have achieved some great things already this season and I really hope that they will go on to achieve even greater things. A fantastic performance by young Paul Robinson between the goalposts, stepping into the breach for the crocked Nigel Martyn, has done the club no harm at all, and has earned him international recognition. Bringing in Rio Ferdinand is also a great signing - Mark Viduka has answered critics with a good start to his career especially when he banged in 4 great goals against Newcastle. Robbie Keane is also one of the most exciting prospects in English football at the moment. Add these big names to the talented Johnathan Woodgate and Alan Smith, the great Harry Kewell, young Stephen McPhail who is another one to watch in the coming...

Leeds United Tour

Advantages: Interesting
Disadvantages: No players for the kids

...We had a 90 minute - obviously a time footballers can work to - tour of the Leeds United ground at Elland road Leeds. We were greeted and shepherded into the press enclosure to hear the history of the Leeds stadium, the problems with the grass, and saw trophies of the Revie heyday and the Leeds past, together with the evolvement of the stadium a t the moment. My son sat in the dugout, saw the changing rooms, and Mr O?leary?s hot seat. We were warmly treated and generally had a good time. Elland road was easy to find and parking was not a problem. We also enjoyed browsing round the souvenir shop....

Review of detla5 - Leeds United Tour

Leeds, Champions of Europe

Advantages: Young talent and good team spirit
Disadvantages: Are currently slipping from the table

...Dear readers, Any Fan of Leeds United will know that Leeds is one of the best teams in the premierships. I think they will finish in the top 3 and will reach the second phase of the champions league and probably beyond. With such young talents, it is easy to see why Leeds united will soon become champions of Europe (Anyone who watched Leeds vs 1860 will know what iam talking about). David O'Leary has invested well in these people and i commend him for that. I will just like to say, go Leeds win the trophies for us....

Review of Leeds United

TO LEEDS OR NOT TO LEEDS

Advantages: In each game that they play in the Champions League they are classed as the underdogs,i believe that gives them the mental edge
Disadvantages: Young and naive,and thats about it

...How much longer can these lucky,lucky Leeds lads hold on in the champions league,i mean come on,were talking about the cream of the crop in european football,the top earners in the world....and then Leeds.No offence Yorkshire folk but i am so sure that in there next game or in the final(well there in the semis so i suppose anything is possible)Leeds United are going to get stuffed. Ok,yes,im a bitter man,yes i know that,i mean come on im a Spurs fan,so im aloud to be synical,thats all thats gone on down at The Lane in recent years. But no way can Leeds United be in the semi final of the Champions League,thats just amazing,they(Leeds)have already beaten the top teams(ie Lazio,Deportivo La Curuna,PSV)and they do seem to be on fire......but surly there luck is to run out sooner or later.Mind you im a true English man and i am proud that...
