Can Leeds win promotion to the Premier League?

Answer 1

If Leeds can manage to beat W.B.A. then yes they can.
I remember the Leeds of the 60's and 70's..FANTASTIC.
Allan Sniffer Clarke...Peter Lorimer...Mick Jones...Paul Reaney...Paul Madeley...and Eddie on the wing...what a team!

Answer 2

G'day Uncle Fester,

Thanks for your question.

I certainly hope so. Leeds rose to prominence under the management of Don Revie during the 1960s and 1970s, when they won a host of major trophies and were one of the most feared sides in Europe. Leeds got their white home kit in the 1960s when Revie decided to make the team more impressive, adopting the colours of the Spanish giant Real Madrid.

Revie's departure for the England job spelled the end of an era for Leeds and they went down to the Second Division in 1982, not regaining their top flight status until 1990, by which time they were being managed by Howard Wilkinson.

Leeds were league champions in 1992, but this title triumph is their most recent major trophy. In 2004, a financial crisis saw Leeds slip out of the Premiership and they are about to begin their third successive season outside the top flight after being beaten 3-0 by Watford in the play-off final of the 2005-06 season.

I certainly hope that this is the last season we play in the Football League Championship for a very long time. However, we need to pick up the pace as we are midtable.

I attach sources for your reference.

Regards

I wouldn't look for a return to their glory years anytime soon (unless Abramovich buys the team 8-)). But a promotion to the Prem is certainly possible; they came thisclose last season.
