Haha to be fair Jim the mention of Leeds in my post was what I think will happen not what I'd like....However, I've been called much worse than a fartknocker in my time.
Only reason is because having Leeds vs Huddersfield in the PL would be nice and also because they're a team that could compete with PL sides and has a large fanbase.
I've lost count of how many times I've made this point in the past, but hey ho. Having a "large fanbase" (oddly enough though, swathes of empty seats in the land that time forgot whenever I see them on TV) does NOT entitle you or warrant a place in the PL. If it did, we'd never have ended up in the third tier, would we? It's what a side does (or doesn't ) do on the pitch that counts. Nothing else. If L***s get promotion (God forbid), the team will have earned it.Only reason is because having Leeds vs Huddersfield in the PL would be nice and also because they're a team that could compete with PL sides and has a large fanbase.
