		<description>All you supposed Leeds supporters posting &#039;pro&#039; Alan Smith comments and calling him a legend must either be under 25 or never set foot iin Elland Road. The guy was a bare faced liar and any self respecting Leeds SUPPORTER - someone who actually attends games home and away wouldnt piss on the judas scum if he was on fire.

Legend is a word reserved for players like Bremner and Charles - just leeds you should hang your head in shame saying Smith was legend. Embarrassment - thats you that is.</description>

		<description>IM a leeds fan too.... I love my club and my fans but i find the dumb anti Smith bandwagon a bit pathetic and pretty stupid....  I know you guys feel hurt but there have been a host of players that have treated Leeds with far less loyalty than Smith ever did. FFsakes the guy handed his transfer bonus to leeds to help them.... who wouldnt want to join Man United ????  So start getting real and thinking outside your own box !  Id love to see Smith at leeds but he wont come back because of our neanderthal supporter element !</description>

		<description>Alan is a model proffesional and although a hard decision to leave the Mighty Whites for there arch rivals the desire to have 10 pricks behind him and then to be surrounded by 70,000 arse holes jumping up and down was just too much for a lad who enjoys cross dressing and wearing lippy.</description>

		<description>And Robinson - well, he had a full good season at Tottenham, followed by several bad ones. Not sure if that&#039;s really related to the Leeds thing, though.</description>

		<description>Some of you are over-sensitive idiots.

Harvey&#039;s comment about the disbanded Leeds team of the relegation year is valid and pertinent, in part. And Tom - mentioning Cantona is totally irrelevant, since it is David O&#039; Leary&#039;s team that is in question. Players such as Bowyer and Kewell really struggled to move on from the Leeds decline - one must remember that Bowyer at this time was an absolutely star player, whilst Kewell was apparently one of the great young players in the world. Woodgate, too, would never really show the his Leeds form again, although as in Kewell&#039;s case, injury played a big role in Woodgate&#039;s demise. But the ignominy and tragedy of the Leeds experience I believe played on some of the players&#039; minds. 

However, as correctly pointed out, Ferdinand and Keane seem to have progressed with few problems; Dacourt had a little lull before he really came on at Inter.</description>

		<description>it didnt matter where he came from or who he supported... he was always the most committed manutd player on the pitch and it had a contagious effect on the team.Leeds got 7million for him, more than what kewell or viduka were sold for! SO he&#039;s helped leeds, done well for man utd and should be good for newcastle aswell.
name me another striker who&#039;d do well as a defensive centre mid when called upon?
defoe? owen? kuyt? viduka?berbatov? anelka? torres?kanu?Adebayor?shevchenko?
Alan Smith will always be one of our heroes</description>

		<description>In responce to the commetn about Leeds players doing nothing after they left.. Typical Man Utd comment, you dont know anything about any other team.

Right where to start.

Lets start at Dacourt, one of the grittiest midfielders seen, and done well in Italy adn for Inter, who&#039;s fans love him.

Ferdinand, vital part of your team, to be honest, you wouldnt win anything without him.

Kewell - Fair enough I think he&#039;s shit but he&#039;s always injured yet Rafa Benitez still plays him regualry, won a champions league medal, something your players have and will never do.Not to turn your nose up.

I could go on really with many others such as Robinson, England&#039;s number 1,Robbie Keane .... One of the deadliest strikers in the league.

Why comment on things you dont know about ?

Also, why would ex-Leeds players be anything better after it ? We got them to their pinnacle and who wouldnt be with sucha brilliantly loyal fanbase at a brilliant club.</description>
