Proof that everyone hates Leeds:

This goal DIDN'T win Goal of the FA Cup Season

This goal DID.

To quote Phil Hay - reporter with The Athletic:

"An astonishing number of people despise Leeds United or what Leeds United stand for. But this club was never made for them."

This picture was taken after Uruguay knocked Brazil out on penalties in the Copa America last night.

For a couple of years, we at Leeds United were truly blessed.

 Forgot Bielsa was Uruguay manager now! And hadnt seen that result! 

more blessed than Leeds was The Candy Shop opposite my primary school in Wetherby where he rented a dingy flat whilst at Leeds and Costa Coffee in the town which he used as his meeting place!

Football is back and Leeds open their pre-season with a 3-0 win at Harrogate (Sorry Jon).

We may have sold Archie Gray to Spurs, but his younger brother Harry Gray made his 1st team debut tonight at just 15 years old.

This tweet sums up perfectly what has been going on behind the scenes with regard to the Gray transfer

 Haha, no surprise really - Harry ( like Archie) is a local harrogate lad so would have enjoyed that! I went past the ground and saw all the security etc outside - most of the harrogate fans are also Leeds fans so no real need for any security!

About to have my annual football season bet and thinking about wasting money on Leeds again. I think they are the favourites so what is the inside story please Leeds fans?

Our starting XI is as strong, if not stronger than last season despite the departure of Gray, Summerville and Kamara.  We need a bit more depth in certain areas and will need to sign 2 or 3 more players IMO.  The return of Pascal Struijk from injury at CB which also allows Ampadu back into midfield is massive for us.

Strong rumours about Jonathan Rowe from Norwich as direct replacement for Summerville.  England U21 international and would be an amazing addition. Negotiations are at an advanced stage but a couple of PL clubs sniffing around who could hijack the deal.  After that, one more attacking midfielder and an extra back up FB and we're cooking on gas.

Had a great pre-season winning 5 from 5, including a win over Valencia in the last match.  Not saying we will run away with the league as there are other good teams, but I am predicting automatic promotion this season. Bookies have us as favourites and they are not often wrong.

Tip:  Watch out for Mateo Joseph.  Will be our top scorer having moved up from U21s.

I also think Leeds are strong favourites to go up this season. There is nothing like the competition at the top as last season where you had Leicester and Southampton coming down from the Prem and Ipswich as wildcards. Burnley, Luton and Sheff Utd don't sound as formidable somehow. I would be amazed if any club without parachute payments repeated Ipswich's achievement.

I am hoping that the Championship remains as competitive as last season though. There were a number of cases where bottom teams beat top teams and it made a much more interesting league than the Prem right up to the wire.
