It's a marginal improvement.
Oh, I'm kidding. I don't really have anything against Leeds.
It's just the people who live there who get on my nerves.
Oh, I'm kidding again.
It's just their moronic football supporters.
I recall once getting to watch the Toon play there, back in Shearer's international heyday. Now, see, with me, when I'm watching someone of obvious class (and Shearer was by far and away the best English centre forward back then) play for an opposing team - even one I dislike - I'd never dream of spending the entire fucking game (that was, in case you missed it, the entire fucking game) telling them that they are, indeed, a complete load of shite.
Maybe it's just me.
It was a close game, with Leeds winning either 3-2 or 4-3. I can't remember which. My mate had fixed for us to sit with the home supporters, so this was all up close and personal for me; never before have I shook my head in disbelief quite so hard, or for quite so long.
I mean, the guy scored all of Newcastle's goals, and virtually outplayed Leeds entire defence and midfield by himself (this was when Leeds were quite good).
By all means call him a wanker.
But shite?
Oh, and I remember the Toon army outsinging them for the entire match. A Geordie chant of "You don't sing at fucking all" was answered by one rather sharp-eyed observer sitting next to me with "that's because we don't come here to sing, you Geordie wankers."
Oh, how I wish now I had said what I wanted to.
"No. You come here to snarl and grimace, and shout at the top of your lungs that England's best centre forward is shite, and all the while the fact that he's come here and single-handedly give your team a game will be completely lost on you - you dim-witted fuck."
The trip to casualty may well have been worth it. -
Nice one! Lot of regeneration going on in Leeds... -

Of course, I was just being facetious!

Good luck chasing those letters! I assume they're IT qualifications or some such? You see, I'm a media grad and we don't actually really know anything about anything! -

I thoroughly agree with this. When I used to work at Wembley Stadium, of all the drunken supporters I had to deal with, the Leeds supporters were the biggest fucking bastards I'd ever encountered. They were losing (against Aston Villa, IIRC), but even for losing supporters they were horrible.

I think they are right. Basically its letters on paper to say that I can work with Microsoft Office, networking protocols and Cisco switches I think...
Expensive normally, but they will be free for me, which is what matters really... That and the £3500 pay raise the job gives me. -
