The 2007-08 season for Leeds United Football Club will have been
anything but regular. At the end of the previous season, one of
England's most famous football clubs was relegated to what is in
effect the Third Division. Still stricken with mountains of debt
accumulated under an earlier regime, the club was put into
administration, then hit with a 15-point penalty for the coming
season due to alleged financial irregularities. With a young
manager on board and a squad of players made up of trainees,
reserves and cheap buy-ins or free transfers, the future looked
bleak for a club that only five years ago was challenging for the
Premiership and the Champions League. But can dreams come true for
their long-suffering and fiercely loyal fans?Thus far Leeds have
won more games than any other team in League One and look more than
likely to gain promotion at the first attempt. The club is on a
roller-coaster ride to gain back its self-respect and an appetite
for further glories in 2008 - so will the story run to a happy
ending? "Yorkshire Evening Post" journalist Phil Hay has followed
the team since the pre-season friendlies last summer and through
their league and cup matches this season. He has interviewed
players, coaching staff, board members and fans to get a true
warts-and-all picture of life at Leeds United as they struggle for
redemption. This is as dramatic a story of football as you will
ever read.
