New member intro Just wanted to say hello as a new member.
Been a Leeds fan as long as I can remember - I'm 47 now and one of my earliest clear memories is of beating Arsenal in the 72 FA Cup final, I clearly remember crying after the 73 Cup Final as well. First time I swore in front of Dad was watching the 75 European Cup final against Bayern. I was swearing at the Ref - its become something of a tradition over the years .......
I have been reading these forums for a while and finally decided to join with news of the possible takeover which gives us a glimmer of hope for the start of an exciting new chapter and us not just getting back to the Premier League but being in a position to to actually compete. Maybe not for the top 3 or 4 spots but certainly more than just hoping we don't get relegated straight back down .......
Like all of us I imagine I have everything crossed a takeover does go through and real funds are made available to invest in the squad.
Looking forwards to some good discussion.

Neither can I, and I can honestly say I have thoroughly enjoyed my time on here and looking forward to the next 500 and beyond.
Got used to Ken now, wouldn't be without him.
