Interesting reading.

It was at the time, especially when the masses who had not read it kept spouting off opinions as fact which could easily be refuted or ratified by reading it. Still got it in my filing cabinet, to dust off from time to time when the stories grow hazy and the legends become true.

One thing is clear though - Iestyn was never the sharpest knife in the drawer when it came to contracts, money and negotiations.

The history books record that neither, seemingly, was one Chris Caisley

Disappointing, if not surprising, that he was booed, I gave those responsible my own 2 fingered thoughts on their actions at the game.

However, I have to admit to raising a smile at the chants of "Iestyn wont stand with us" when some of the squad made their way into the Southstand.

Oh, and it looked as though those who did that were mainly the Aussie contingent, is that correct?

It was;

"Iestyn, come and stand with us"

Disappointing to say the least!

i pointed out each of the people around me and called them on the issue. I spoke to a number of posters on here about the issue, and while i may joke about the supporters being feckwitts, it is true that leeds have possibly the worst supporters in the league, booing an ex cup-winning captain, someone who influenced massively the team that we watched win back to back grand finals. and then to top it off, managed to boo the team off at half time and full time! I hope that those who booed are captured on the CCTV and denied tickets for the grand final!

No chance of me being identified, I was watching the Sky game in the club by the time the hooter went.
