Another White from Argentina
Posted: 06 Sep 2020, 18:49
Hi everyone,
At this point there is no surprise in having fans in Argentina
My name is Antonio, from Buenos Aires (Argentina) and my English team is Leeds United.
My sympathy for Leeds Utd started when I played a computer game named Football Manager 2001 (in which I had great spell at Elland Road, by the way) - sounds silly but because of that I started reading a lot about Leeds United, their great history, their wonderful fans, and from time to time I saw myself checking the game results on the internet. I didn't take very well the relegation back then. I was always hoping that such a great club should get back quickly. Now, obviously I have started watching the games again ever since Bielsa took over (and Championship games started to be broadcasted in Argentina and having way more viewers than EPL games at that point!). Got really sad about losing the play-offs last year, and saw myself roaring 'GOOALL' (like I would do every time my team in Argentina scores a goal) on last season, especially during the last games (I watched almost every single game). That is when I knew that undoubtedly, my team in England is Leeds United.
Next time I visit England, Leeds & Elland Road will be a must.
I am happy for all of you who got to see Leeds Utd back in the Prem, saw the celebrations and it was great. Hope to see you guys packing Elland Road as you always do (when it's allowed again), and make the away team fear us. I will be supporting LUFC from abroad but will definitely be one of you. See you at Elland Road somewhere next year probably!
