Life With Leeds United

I've been sprawled here in my bed, staring at the wall, thinking about things Leeds United. 'Things' seem blurred but glorious, dark but thrilling, and loud but soothing. Thinking about Leeds gives me a sense of satisfaction. The club, players, and fans are the real deal. This may be a strange, peculiar article, but after all, it is about Leeds.

Many people don't know what it's like to support a team like Leeds. It's hard to describe it at times. The low points are more devastating than 9'11 but the highs are like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Everything is strong, powerful, and grasping. Once you sign up to being one of us - you will never resign to leaving.

Leeds United is the faith we believe in, there is no other like it. Well you could be one of those Manchester Red fans, but then you have to stop singing at matches - well you're allowed to sing 'oh Robin Van Persie'. But that chant just reminds you of thieving someone's lucky charm - that someone would be Arsenal. I have a bit of respect for Arsenal if I'm being honest, but obviously, I still hate them. I just like the way their club is run and how they do things, that's about it. At the end of the road, they'll still be dirty, London, trash. Just like Chelsea and Millwall.

All of them so called 'big clubs' - bearing in mind their lackluster customs - are in their own opinions, greater than Leeds. How stupid could they possibly be? If I could laugh right now I would, but I can't, so I won't. Seriously, who are these 'big clubs'? They're nothing but glory-hunting, hypocrites. Full of a distict lack of knowledgeable opinions.

One big difference between The Mighty Leeds and these 'big clubs' is the fact that them clubs have fans whereas Leeds don't have any, they have worshippers. Just look how we, the followers of Leeds United, follow our club. It's like a journey from planet Earth to the sun, meeting many obscure emotions, obstacles, and challenges on the way.

The club itself could be compared to the circulatory system - constantly pumping the blood of Leeds United around it's supporters. In a football club, that kind of feeling is hard to attain - rarely being achieved. But to Leeds, it feels normal. It's been like this for a very long time - certainly for all of my days.

Although we've went through some tough times in the last decade or so, the feeling of being committed to our faith, has never been questioned. It's the Leeds way or no way. In fact, it's just the Leeds way, there is no 'no way'. The Leeds way will be the journey of a lifetime. It will be exciting, moving, passionate, and comforting. There's no doubt that we are the 'dirty Leeds scum' - something we are very proud of.Okay, we're having a tough old time right now, but remember what we emphasise so very loudly. Ups and downs.

Throughout this journey, just remember, we'll be marching down the road, together.
