Amateurish Leeds United fan website Leeds All Over (a strange and arguably unintelligible name for a collective group) launched a timely yet predictable and rather pathetic tirade at Leicester City Football Club amid relegation. Along with a host of fairly unfunny memes.
"As soon as that full-time whistle blew at Leicester last night, Leeds fans were immediately heading online to make sure we let them know our feelings."A rather sad Leeds All Over
To be fair, the Foxes are awful; it's not like the Blue Army are unaware of their disastrous season or mostly terrible, uncaring squad, nor the atrocious hierarchy! It's not as if City supporters need the dregs of the Whites faithful to point that out.
Why infantile Leeds United supporters revel in Leicester City's downfall
They appear to have been annoyed when the Foxes beat them to Premier League promotion a couple of years ago. Furthermore, City players singing "Leeds are falling apart, again" seems to be the pretty immature reason for such bitterness emerging from Elland Road. They seem to forget that nobody hates the contemporary Leicester roster more than their own support.
​Though this is nothing new; now that the mediocre Yorkshire side are possibly just about safe in the EPL, they swiftly emerge with a pretty insignificant chant in retort, a mere two years later. Peculiar!
In this poorly written, clearly unproofread article from the aforementioned rag, the floundering Peacocks blogger suggests LCFC cheated them out of being promoted. Cringe.
"Because, we got both barrels when Leicester beat us to promotion. "Unique syntax from LAO!
Additionally, it bangs on about James Justin (a player enjoying renaissance but one they'll immediately turn on when he inevitably lets them down and suffers atrocious form, just as he did with Leicester). Not to mention citing how currently inconsequential players such as Harry Gray 'liked' posts about Leicester's demise. Okay.
The entire 'piece' was entirely embarrassing; it's almost like Leeds fans have nothing better to do than attack City. Maybe that's the totally trivial point here.
Salient advice for the LUFC support (of which the majority are great, passionate and honest fans) would be to enjoy your success and don’t belittle others. That's because you never know how soon you'll join them once again!
"When we missed out on promotion, you worried that we’d be tumbling back into the depths for a long time... We were also made to feel that way by the clubs who gained promotion over us, Leicester more than anyone... their ‘cheating’ to get there in the first place has come back to bite them in a bad way."
Sport's obsession with past grievances reveals a fragile psyche, one seemingly incapable of celebrating current stability without dredging up historical slights. Hopefully English football returns to dignity one day, meanwhile social media says "hold my beer"!
