Manchester United v Leeds United is on.The two rivals will face each other next summer in a pre-season friendly, which will be the first time they have come face-to-face in eight years.Theirs is a bitter rivalry and the last time they met in a 2011 League Cup match manager Sir Alex Ferguson said Leeds fans made it a frightening experience.
3On their first visit to Leeds since October 2003, United stayed in a city centre hotel, which then forced police to make a last-minute change to the clubs route to Elland Road after a chanting mob congregated outside of where they stayed.We had a lot of problems outside the hotel, Ferguson said at the time. I dont know how many hundreds of them there were, but it was like the film Zulu. The police were fantastic, though. It was frightening. There were seven police vans around the hotel protecting the team.I dont understand it between Leeds and Manchester United. But its there and its not nice.
3Liverpool-Manchester United games, as we have said before, have always been fierce in many aspects and sometimes supporters can play a bad part in particular games. But it never reaches the levels of Leeds versus United. Its just modern society I suppose.Fergie will tell you he wasnt even aware of the animosity between the sides when he first arrived at Old Trafford from Aberdeen in 1986.He got a taste of the hatred when he travelled with his assistant, Archie Knox, to watch Crystal Palace play Leeds in the old First Division and was called a Manc b*****d when spotted by one of the Elland Road faithful.
