Well Leeds United have become the third of English footballs so called big clubs to end up in League 1. Sheffield Wednesday and Notts Forest have both had or in Forest's case are still having a spell in the third tear. I wonder who will be next?
I had a certain amount of sympathy for Sheffield Wednesday and Notts Forest but Leeds it's difficult to feel sorry for and I'm sure many fans will agree.(Although being a journalist I'm supposed to be impartial) The amount of debt they ran up in the Premiership and yet they can still go out and splash money on signings when they came down to the championship. Supporters of clubs who have had their own financial troubles in the not to distant past(my own club included) might think Leeds are getting their just desserts and with todays news that administration might come their way a lot of fans are laughing away but I have to say it's not a nice feeling when it happens to your club.
Although you can't help but laugh at this youtube video from a Huddersfield fan!

Perhaps it's the only way some of these bigger clubs will learn don't take anything for granted, European football, FA Cups etc.
The same can be said for Reading and Wigan the other way round fans of those 2 clubs probably thought they'd see a lifetime of lower league football!
