john_lcfc Posted 1 May 2005 Author Posted 1 May 2005 we hate leeds we hate leeds we hate leedss we hate leeds i know about 50-60 leicester fans in L1 sung inapropriate songs but leeds dont say u havent done similar to other clubs.
Benji Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 including our own was shameful today though, for the football club as a whole. The police managed to display another way of how not to cope with frustrated fans and it was just one big balls the people singing the songs should be gone, banned for life, why do they come to a football game? Think of it the other way round, if god forbid it happened to someone who supports leicester, we'd have reacted that way, we reacted when keith wellers minute silence was interrupted! but then again, now some leeds fans have felt what it is like to be on the wrong side of such attacks, the amount of times they've sung racially motivated songs maybe they can understand the anger that such victims have to put up with but the inority singing were a disgrace and should never be welcome at our club again, go on...sod off
Simon Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 Didnt go today (Dissertation in next week, gah!) but hearing all this is truly shameful, two wrongs dont make a right, no matter what Leeds fans have chanted in the past. I'm really sorry to all the Leeds fans that have been hurt by this appalling behaviour.
Wilson Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 I was quite impressed with their away fans but they do deserve whatever they get.
Anish Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 It seems that all the decent Leicester fans here have lambasted our own supporters and apologised to the Leeds fan to the actions of a handful of mindless twats. However, if what Durnerz is saying is true (re racist chanting), where is the apology to us? I have experienced racist chanting by Leeds fans before at Filbert Street and was truly disgusted by the 'Town Full of Pa**s' chant that I even wrote a letter to Peter Ridsdale (when he was chairman) complaining about that behaviour. Yet 5 years later and nothing has changed. Now I don't want to condone the idiots who sang the 'u ran from the Turks chant' - that was disgraceful and completely out of order. Hoever, it seems that Leeds can dish it out but can't take it in return. It is no wonder Leeds United fans have one of the worst reputations in English football.

leeds Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 edit to say qouted wrong person Although i agree racial abuse should not happen and "town full of pakkis" should not have been sang today and i didn't sing it however there is no way some racial songs can be compared to the isanbull song. Both are wrong but one is worse and we know which one. Since were alla pologising may i apologise for the Leeds fans who do sing racist songs ,its not right nor fair not when we have ethnic and black players playing for us!!
Jimmy Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 he was appologiseing, i think you may have got posters mixed up

Why should muslims be under attack when they have done nothing wrong? Neither did the murdered leeds fans do anything wrong. Im not condoning what the leicester fans did today, but abuse is abuse

Im not condoning what the leicester fans did today, but abuse is abuse 101775[/snapback] I agree, racism is just as bad as the Turks chant. It's not just Muslims that you are abusing, it is also Sikhs, Hindus, and other Asians that form a substantial percentage of the Leicester population. And the chant is even more pathetic considering that Leeds itself has a fairly large (albeit not in terms of percentage) Asian population. Furthermore, Harpal Singh was the first Asian footballer to play professionally in England, and which club did he start at? Yes...Leeds. It just shows what a bunch of thick, unintelligible morons some Leeds fans are.
Hullfox Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 The L1ers that sang that are complete tossers. However, for any Leeds fan to come on here pontificating about anything is rich. I used to work in Leeds and passed Elland Rd every day. When the two supporters were killed I stopped and laid flowers at the huge memorial that sprang up. Nobody took any notice of me but a Bradford fan in his shirt laying flowers was abused left right and centre. Leeds United are the nastiest foulest supporters I have ever seen and no one will ever change my opinion of that. As for us, we've got to get ourselves in order. There's funny and there's out of order. That was not funny.
Jonbluefox9 Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 My view of what happened was from P1 right next to N block though so I usually hear everything L1 sing but I didn't hear the song they sung that made the leeds fans mad today. I've never seen a group of away fans react like that to anything since we moved to Filbert Way and I did say to my Dad that it must be something to do with Turkey. It's shameful but it was a minority of fans and the real Leicester fans are those that went to Sunderland and who got such a great response from the Sunderland fans. Before Leeds fans think of attacking our innocent fans then just think about your club and the fact that you have a mindless few too. Every club does but it doesn't mean innocent people that want to go and watch football should get hurt or even killed. Those two Leeds fans in Turkey went to watch the team they love and they were killed for no reason. They were innocent too so do you really want to see the same happen to Leicester fans because some people who say they're fans of our club sung a terrible song? Leeds fans did sing at least one racist song today and that's not acceptable either but two wrongs don't make a right.
Teeno Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 edit to say qouted wrong person Although i agree racial abuse should not happen and "town full of pakkis" should not have been sang today and i didn't sing it however there is no way some racial songs can be compared to the isanbull song.

How can racism be worse? People can't help their own race. How can people abusing people for the colour of their skin be less of an appauling thing then sing songs about Turks. My understanding is that the fans that were murdered wern't quite whiter than white anyway, and the likelyhood is they insighted it. I'm glad i sat in the kop this afternoon was much better than L1.
MADLEVEIN Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 just to add my two penneth, leeds fans are quite right t be annoyed by this subject but as many people have already stated they like to give man u the munich bollox, but who actually got hurt today ? the leeds fans or the leicester fans who were hailed with a shower of coins ....one of which hit a twelve year old girl in the face, leeds fans are two faced and should take into account what they chant about other peoples mis-fortune before criticising nearly 99% of leicester fans today.
leedsfan Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 Hi all, Just like to apologise to all fans who attended the game today and were subjected to racist chants. I'm a Leeds fan and was sat in the Leicester end (naughty me but we sell out every away game before I get chance - there were loads of us in there!). Think the majority of both sets of supporters were very well behaved today - the usual good banter and chants provided for a decent enough atmosphere (thought we were particularly loud, as ever), and was really enjoying the game (despite the fact that we're shit - which we admit!). Shame a small section of fans had to spoil it - firstly with Leicester fans singing discraceful songs about the Istanbul killing incident. I admit, us Leeds fans tend to be hyprocritical - I am not one of the minority that sing the Munich song - believe it was sung today but the rest of the fans booed. This however condones neither the Turkey chants, or us dropping to your level and singing the "paki" chant. Its a real shame we can't rise above it. Why violence and racism has to go with football is beyond me. Whats the point? Good to see so many of you on here, and other websites agreeing and apologising, and I'd like to do the same on our behalf. Its unfortunate that Leeds fans have such a bad reputation; a large number of fans now are trying to kick the violence out - as always its a small number that bring the reputation on the rest of us. Its obvious that 99.9% of fans in the stadium were disgraced by what went on. I'd like to wish you all the best of luck for next season and beyond. You're a big club, with a good stadium and set of fans, and i'd like to see us playing each other in the Prem sooner rather than later.
Cat Burger Posted 1 May 2005 Posted 1 May 2005 Glad to hear the police were doing their jobs then? Easy money for those useless....!! Leeds and Leicester fans involved in any chants of facism or bigotry today, hang your heads, you are no better than each other and none of you can justify anything said today by saying you were provoked. Quite frankly the contents of this thread have made me quite sick, I hate you.
Alexikokopops Posted 2 May 2005 Posted 2 May 2005 just to add my two penneth, leeds fans are quite right t be annoyed by this subject but as many people have already stated they like to give man u the munich bollox,but who actually got hurt today ? the leeds fans or the leicester fans who were hailed with a shower of coins ....one of which hit a twelve year old girl in the face, leeds fans are two faced and should take into account what they chant about other peoples mis-fortune before criticising nearly 99% of leicester fans today. 101841[/snapback] I imagine the families and friends of the two killed might have been hurt too.
Lowfields Posted 2 May 2005 Posted 2 May 2005 Leeds fans are #### 2 faced they kick off when that is sung but not half an hour before they were singing the Munich song, i'm not defending it but they cant have it both ways. 101701[/snapback] No one is saying anything about having it both ways. Just not to expect to chant about Turkey and for us to sit back and take it. Did you not notice that those singing Munich were soon drowned out by the other Leeds fans singing other songs? Shame there were no decent fans in L1 to drown out the Turkish chants. Shame the ones who were singing it left early and ducked out to let the genuine fans take the flak. Look forward to Elland Road next season.
Lowfields Posted 2 May 2005 Posted 2 May 2005 Now I don't want to condone the idiots who sang the 'u ran from the Turks chant' - that was disgraceful and completely out of order. Hoever, it seems that Leeds can dish it out but can't take it in return. It is no wonder Leeds United fans have one of the worst reputations in English football. 101768[/snapback] We can take it. You should be telling the lads in L1 who dished it out and "then ran from the Leeds" about dishing it out and not taking it in return.

I applaud you. Well done
kerryh Posted 2 May 2005 Posted 2 May 2005 I won't ever be sitting in L1 again. On my way into the ground, Shum, Teeno and I passed some racist Leeds fans shouting abuse at a Taxi driver. I found the Leeds fans in the ground to be vocal but very intimidating. I must admit to hating all Leeds fans yesterday - something I have never, ever done before, I even tried giving Teeno the old 'they are football fans the same as us' chat before the game. The few decent fans that have posted on these boards in the last 24hrs have made me change my mind again, I too would like to apologise, firstly for my generalisation and secondly for all mindless, idiots out there who pretend to be fans of the game.
john_lcfc Posted 2 May 2005 Author Posted 2 May 2005 leicester v leeds and leeds v leicester will be a 12:00 start next season in my opinion then
