    Thats how I usually pick horses, I pick the one in Leeds colours usually. Guess what colours the winner of the Irish Grand National wore? Yep, yellow, white and blue...guess who decided to bet on Ruby Walsh instead? :pac:

    I got my 5 year old to look through the whole list and without prompting he said "definitely State of Play". He has a scary ability to predict things so that's where my money is going (all 2 euro of it).

    I was going to go for that myself, instead went for Priests Leap(Leeds colours) and back up of Black Alpachi(cos he's quite good).

    Currently in hotel in Galway listening to the mighty Leeds not beat Southend, gotta admit, the girl knows how to holiday.:pac:

    I have now given my blessing to my daughters to support any other team bar Spurs, I wish my father had given me the same choice, they were ****e, the ref was also crap and man do I hate Michael Brown, the guy can not play football, he's just there to chop the legs of players who can play. So pissed off, I'm now going out to jump on the trampeline :D

    It must be tough alright,Woddle...but then again i support Liverpool !
    ( but at least we win a few trophys every few years :D )

    And Michael Brown is a pr1ck of the highest order...did you see Gerrard give him a whack of an elbow a few weeks back ?
    It was a beauty,Ref looked straight at it and said nothing...the refs even hate him !

    What to do, got Choi @ 50/1 or a £3 euro each way, he's now 2/1 on betfair, so I could lay him and make 35 quid regardless or let it ride or hang on in the hopes that he wins and get a 100

    oh god, you sound like my older brother born in 1965.
    he used to go on and on and on about .............giles.........lorrimer............hunter...............bremner.........gray..........and a few more names that just rolled off his tongue.

    NB * after each name was called out there was a glazed look in his eyes and a sense of awe and wonder and a short silence followed before continuing on with the next god.

    so whats the crack. are the great leeds coming back to haunt us ????
