    i’d rather continue pretending the bates/cellino years didn’t exist, so this is a very rude reminder

    What a great team that finished third, I sure hope nothing bad happened to them in the following ten years

    classic £82m QPR squad eking out a 1-0 (penalty) win against a Yeovil squad that was assembled for a bag of peanuts and stale ends of a loaf of bread

    worth it for ZAMORRAAA though

  5. Ross McCormack 13-14 the original Sammie Szmodics 23-24

    Leeds scored 59 in total, McCormack had a hand in 38 of those (64%)

  6. If only we’d been able to beat 8 mean Yeovil at home what could have been.

    And if people could avoid looking up our final day celebrations that would also be much appreciated.

  7. Less than half of them (11) are in the championship now and at least three of them are probably leaving this season.

    I don’t think I have ever seen Andy Reid being called Andrew.

    By what a player he was for a tubby boy.

    We’re not in this photo because it was still our Premier League days, right guys?

    Guys?

    Right?

    We weren’t somewhere else. I’m not old.

    Right?!

  10. Bet nothing came of those Leicester players, straight back down the next season I’m sure…

    That table is wrong, not sure where you got it from.

    Bristol and Preston aren’t in 11th and 12th so there must be a mistake.

  12. That final day of season away at Leicester was hell. Birmgham scored 2 late goals I recall to relegate us at the death. Only lost to a penalty too.

    Just look at how far Yeovil have fallen. Now they’re back in the national league prem

  14. Meanwhile we had just finished 8th in the Premier League, with Mauricio Pochettino our boss, and Rickie Lambert and Jay Rodriguez netting 28 goals between them.

    That summer we would go on to sign Sadio Mane, Dusan Tadic, Graziano Pelle, Toby Alderweireld, Fraser Forster and Ryan Bertrand.

  15. At the time this was the highest league finish in the club’s history. Very fond memories of that season.

  16. This was the last time you financially doped and got promoted? Think you got a few million fine then rather than docked points. Turned out well for you. Harsh on Derby.

    This season lead to (with the most sincere apologies too the missus and kids) the greatest day of my life.

  18. We had a pretty good team that season and for a lot of it looked proper playoff candidates. But injuries meant that what we all felt was our best first XI never actually played together. We were also really missing that really good striker.

    Billy Davies did his usual implosion, Stuart Pearce was appointed manager but didn’t fancy taking the last 10 games or so to get us into the playoffs so with Gary Brazil in charge we sank like a stone into mid table.

    Pearce was the kind of manager who provokes a big new manager bounce and then crashes, so I’m pretty sure we would have gotten into the playoffs and maybe even had a fairy tale if he had just stepped in straight away.

    Still, was one of our more successful championship seasons post-promotion

    The time period where 15th was our home every season. What a time to be alive.

  20. 13-14 season, beginning of Karanka’s time with us – what a time it was (until about December 2016)

  21. BertytheSnowman on

    Wow we really could be heading for our worst position in the pyramid for over a decade.

    Ross McCormack getting 25+ league goals in that Leeds team needs to be studied as one of the greatest sporting feats ever
