What is your team like this season?

Surprisingly good. So far we've managed to keep hold of most of our team from last year (bar the obvious like David Healy). Still have the likes of Alan Thompson, Jonathan Douglas, David Prutton, Tore Andre Flo, etc so I'm reasonably optimistic of getting to the playoffs even with our 15 point deduction.

I bet his contract says until the end of the rainy season and is a fixed fee. Royally screwed!!! Slave labour for the rest of his life......

It's not that bad. We're only on -12 points now.

To be fair, Dennis Wise did promise to take Leeds out of the Championship at the first attempt.

MK Dons if I recall correctly.

Yes indeed.

BTW Bob, another four wins and you'll have climbed to the bottom of the table!

Bit unfair though, punishing the club for the sins of the long-departed Risdale and O'Leary.

And out of the Carling Cup in a couple of weeks after visiting Pompey to concentrate on avoiding relegation. Some Leeds fans are keeping an eye on the Conference as their derby could be with Farsley Celtic next season

Hi there to ya all. I’m working in London for a few months during your rainy season an I been a wonderin where would be the best place to see some soccer.

Suggestion welcome from you folks.

Sorry Billy, your coming to these shores now is extremely bad timing.

With the departure of David Beckham, football in this country has ground to a halt.

Therefore, in answer to your original question, try the LA Galaxies:
