I want to share my experience of yesterday, I am overseas right now, and watched it in a sports bar that I discovered, I took my spot in a small corner in front of a large screen that was showing the game. but as the game got closer more Leeds fans began to come in, not to mention the bar owner wearing a yellow Leeds shirt, I did feel alone in my little corner and dreaded the inevitable Leeds opener with me quivering in my little corner wearing my orange shirt.
However as the first half progressed I grew far more in confidence to start getting excited and start getting loud and giving my opinions and the way we were dominating proceedings, luckily the Leeds lads closest to me quite good humoured ,
Mo Barrow came on and a guy mentioned that had him on loan he was rubbish, but he bet he scores against us, true enough, a few minutes later after one great save by the Leeds keeper he buries a one on one. cue wild celebrations from one man ina small corner of the bar amid almost total silence , was a great feeling.
Injury time arrives, 5 minutes (ouch) Siaz goes down after being blown on, mass celebrations around me, come on Manonne I whisper with clenched fists, my prayers are answered as Hendandez players a gentle back pass into our keepers grateful arms. JUSTICE I yell from my little enclave, for the next two minutes I cheer every clearance before the ref blows the final whistle to total silence except for one little part of the bar.
Such a great feeling, played very well and deserved the win, fair play to the Leeds fans who spoke to me after, the others just drunk up and left in silence.
