What Sunday Taught Us

  1. A sizable minority of Leeds fans still think they are the best club in the world ever, and not simply a team doing well in the 3rd Division as was.
  2. A similar minority of Leeds fans believe that bellowing "Leedsleedsleeds" in your face somehow makes them the best supporters the world has ever seen.
  3. Although Lee Harper worries the hell out of us when the ball is down by his ankles, we wouldn't swap him for anyone else - particularly the Leeds keeper.
  4. No Kettering fan will be travelling by train to the replay unless they have a hankering for an 8-hour return trip with delightful 5 hour stopovers in either Sheffield or Derby.
  5. God bless Ian Roper's all-effort displays, but please keep him away from the microphone & camera.
  6. Being a copper at a Poppies FA Cup game must be the second easiest way of earning cash EVER, second only to being a sofa tester, and just ahead of stroking puppies.
  7. The white rose of Yorkshire was superseded, and made redundant in 1485 by the Tudor rose, which is Northamptonshire's emblem.
  8. The thousands of away fans in attendance made less noise than the couple of hundred AFC Wimbledon fans earlier this season.
  9. Nothing quite beats getting wet at an FA Cup game.
  10. Moses needs to sort his f**king head out while he still has a career in football ahead of him.
  11. It is almost impossible to send coherent text messages whilst standing in driving rain.
  12. Lee Harper has been thoroughly reading his guide book to "Manager-Speak".
  13. Leeds fans seem to be labouring under the impression that a tie against Manchester United means a return to the big-time. This might be true if the gap in league places between the Red Devils and Leeds wasn't almost exactly the same as the gap between Leeds and us!
