Sort of Southend related...

It's to do with Leeds really and the way the media portrays them. More so is the cover they are given. Just because they are deemed to be a big club because they have had past success.

Take Sky Sports for example. Obviously on the day of the final they will cover the big match. But the ratio of Leeds to Doncaster coverage is ridiculous.

-Leeds season
-The 15 point reduction
-The Leeds fans
-The manager changes
-The great play off semi win

They even interviewed the Leeds fans saying- "It's just in the stars isn't it that you win today?"

Dirty egor looking Leeds scum fan- "Oh aye man, eh up, we come from tut north for tut final for tut win, tarrah!"

But where is the Doncaster coverage!? The team that 5 years ago, whilst Leeds were in the Champions league dueling with the likes of Man United and Liverpool, Doncaster we're scrapping teams such as Burton and Crawley Town!

I say this because if it was Southend were in the final I'd be thoroughly pee'd off that just because they were once a big team they get all the spotlight.

Doncaster deserve it just as must, maybe even more.

Come on Doncaster, we have faith in you, I have faith in you- please show the Leeds scum and bring their filth of fans back to earth.

I know what you mean, in my newspaper yesterday there was a whole page on Leeds and a tiny little paragraph on Doncaster. Same again really in today's. I would love Donny to do it today for all the little clubs, but, as others have said, think I would rather Leeds were out of our way next season. Don't know, it's a heart v head situation.

This is the main reason that i can't stand Leeds just because they used to be a big club they still get all the media attention.

I think Doncaster will prefer to be the under dogs though.

Come on Donny !

Its not really there fault to be fair.

They are a big club whether we like it or not.

Still I've got Donny in my play-off acca so I think they will win!

Hearts says I want Donny to win, a) because it's Leeds & b) so we can at least say we lost to the best team in the playoffs.

Head says I want Leeds to win to get them out of L1 for next season. Leicester will take time to adjust & one of Col Ewe or Scunny will struggle. Our task in hand will be a lot easier in a Leeds free division, even more so if Ince leaves MK.

Thats it mate. Papers and television are aimed at certain markets. How many Doncaster fans weren't there yesterday that will be watching? We had fans from all over the world including a group from Melborne and there were Leeds locked out.
