Leeds United News 29th April - Leeds: 6th Most successful British team in Europe ever!

in #lufc5 years ago

We open today with the league table of 'Most Successful British Clubs in Europe.....ever!'

.....and you may ask, why we would have any interest in this table when we haven't played in European competition for 18 years but the answer is simple. Leeds are in 6th position. We should have been higher if not for the cheating, bribe-taking refs of the '70s but not to worry, it won't be long before we're amassing points in this league again!

If anyone actually cared, Man City just scraped into 10th! Let's have a stolen photo 'courtesy' of Alex Livesy at Allsport to see our heroes of the past! (Except for Kewell who is a traitorous piece of scum who should be deleted from Leeds' history forever)

For the full league table of European success, follow this link to the BBC for the details on how the table was calculated.

If any proof were needed of Leeds' still massive global fanbase, here we have a tweet from a member of the Polish supporter's group who was bored during the lockdown and decided to paint their stairs......

Loan Players

Leeds currently have a number of very important players on loan whose contracts expire on June 30th. With very little hope of the current season being finished by then, Leeds United Chief Executive, Angus Kinnear has been giving an update.

As usual, there were no specifics but he was pleased with the way talks were progressing. The players concerned are Jack Harrison, Ben White, Illan Meslier and Jean-Kevin Augustin. All top drawer so let's hope we get the cheque book out and sign them full time.

They have all come into the club and worn the shirt with pride, let's get them all in on a decent deal ready for the Premiership.

Finally, as there is very little to report today.....

Let's take another look at Beckford's goal that struggling Championship side, Leeds scored to knock Man U out for the FA Cup at Old Trafford. Never fails to cheer me up when I get a little grumpy!

Stay safe and sane and my best wishes to everyone :-)
