Beckford Nightmare at the 'Theatre of Dreams' !!!


The unthinkable has just happened. Third tier strugglers Leeds United have just beaten Premier League champions Manchester United in their own backyard in the third round of the FA cup. While everyone is still coming to terms with the result, this has to go down as one of the greatest shocks in the FA cup's 128 year illustrious history.
The Leeds United manager had just said before coming to Old Trafford that his team will play with 'no fear' despite being 40 positions down in the league table compared to Man Utd. And thats what they did, their early momentum resulting in a goal by Breckford, what pleasure it might have given him, being a born Leeds United fan and now a player, to score against their greatest rivals in the 'theatre of dreams' ! well, he just ended the FA cup dream for Man United this season !
The romance of the cup is still very much on  !!!

    Leeds’ temerity is worth a mouthful of praise.

    We have seen Mick(Y) Mc Crapies who wouldn’t care a penny for their traveling fans’ feelings and field their tea ladies and ball boys at Old Trafford, killing the game right on the team sheets and even before the god damn ball is kicked off! Leeds... Take a bow.

    And United… For a hard core’s sake please stop snoozing your wake up alarms. Trust me there have been an awful lot of them this season already!!!!!!!!
