Cheers for that Stew!
As I wrote elsewhere, that's at least one more year in the wilderness and the dream of the Premiership is as far away as ever.
It will be at least 2011 before Leeds are back in the top flight - but in reality it could be a decade or more. Leeds are in danger of becoming an established third tier team.
Never felt comfortable with the match itself, even after going one up, and were caught by a sucker punch. Didn't do enough to be honest in the two legs to justify going through. Becchio has come on in leaps and bounds this year, but for all Beckford's goals, he still blows hot and cold.
I still reckon Grayson is a good manager, and with a full season at the helm, I'd be optimistic next year about automatic promotion, although that said, the thought of three relatively big clubs coming down would tend to dampen that optimism somewhat.
There does appear though to be a real need to bounce straight back after relegation, as Leicester showed - those 15 points last year, which cost that automatic second place, still weigh heavily - even now!
B@!!@cks!
