Currently watching the Mark Viduka documentary and man..I think I'm falling in love a bit too hard with this little club. I still love LFC dearly but..seeing how many ex LFC and LUFC players who becoming legends for both club is outstanding. That's also maybe why I feel an instant connection when watching this club more closely.
Leeds feels a bit like an innocent version of LFC almost before they become such giant.
And Mark Viduka himself..man...what a player he was, watching those snippets of him playing. What a great player and deservedly club legend.

I need help if you are willing. I'm on another 4 hour car drive and my brain has decided I need to write a crack fic, but I need to come up with names that each of the hacketteers would name a cat (one cat per person). I know Dylan's would be Schrodinger (obviously) but I need ideas for the others. Any thoughts?
I LOVE NAMING PETS! This is perfect for me. 🐈
Nick: Viduka, after former Australian football player Mark Viduka (I just googled famous Australian footballers and picked the likeliest sounding one.)
Abi: Jiji, after the cat in Kiki’s Delivery Service.
Emma: Chanel. Girl has expensive taste (callout to The Chanels from Scream Queens).
Ryan: Vincent, after Vincent Price.
Jacob: Cheesesteak. He’s just hungry.
Laura: Herriot, after the author and veterinary surgeon James Herriot
Max: Banjo. Literally just the first word he thought of.
Kaitlyn: Oakley, after Annie Oakley.
Feel free to use or not use but I enjoyed coming up with these!

Favorite non-European (and non-South American) old/retired football player?
For women's:
I love a lot of the former USWNT players like Mia Hamm, Abby Wambach, Brandi Chastain, Michelle Akers and Brianna Scurry.
Also, Homare Sawa and Aya Miyama who played for the Japanese NT, Sun Wen who played for the Chinese NT.
Mercy Akide and Perpetua Nkwocha who played for the Nigerian NT. Genoveva Añonman who played for Equatorial Guinea.
For men's:
For Australian NT (didn't include any female Australian NT players because our best players are currently playing): Tim Cahill, Mark Viduka, Mark Schwarzer and Mark Bosnich (who had a crazy life).
Special mention to the 1974 Australian squad who somehow managed to qualify for the world cup despite mostly being part time salesmen who played for amateur clubs.
Park Ji-Sung for South Korean NT, Hidetoshi Nakata who played for the Japanese NT (Perugia 1998/1999 kit will always be iconic).
George Weah for Liberian NT, Didier Drogba for Ivory Coast NT.
#ask#also this reminds me i'm considering making a sideblog for vintage female soccer players 🤔#this list is a bit basic sorry#especially for the african female footballers their best players are definitely currently playing

What would Australia do to turn back the clock and have the team that contained Schwartzer, Kewell, Thompson, Viduka and Cahill available again?
The team now is a reflection of an underinvestment in football in this country and it’s a crying shame because they had a golden generation to build from.

Benjamin est presque hors de portée de Google, bien qu'il y ait cette histoire à propos de sa signature pour les moins de 9 ans en 2015. Si la légende est exacte, c'est le grand enfant sur la photo, le deuxième à partir de la droite.

La dernière fois que Cardiff a diverti Leeds en FA Cup, il y a 21 ans cette semaine, le match était si captivant qu'il a fini par avoir le sien. Page Wikipédia.Leeds était en tête du classement – oui, le tableau de la Premier League – tandis que Cardiff était 10e du troisième niveau. Leeds avait Rio Ferdinand, Alan Smith, Mark Viduka et Robbie Fowler, mais Cardiff avait Ninian Park. Le décrire comme une fosse aux ours reviendrait à risquer un procès de la part des ours.Effectivement, Leeds a perdu. Le choc les a plongés dans un marasme (aucune victoire en championnat pendant deux mois, selon mon collègue omniscient Rob Smyth) et le marasme s'est transformé en spirale. Cinq ans et demi plus tard, l'équipe du troisième niveau, c'était eux.C'est, bien sûr, un Leeds très différent qui fait le voyage au Pays de Galles aujourd'hui. Leur manager américain aux yeux brillants, Jesse Marsch, apporte si peu de bagages qu'il n'a même jamais été responsable d'un match de FA Cup. Et Ninian Park a cédé sa place au moins évocateur Cardiff City Stadium. Mais l'histoire a l'habitude de traîner. Les deux équipes se sont rencontrées 22 fois depuis cette journée toxique en 2002 et le score est de 14-3 contre Cardiff.Ils languissent peut-être près du bas du championnat, mais Cardiff est au-dessus de Blackpool, qui a démoli Nottingham Forest hier. Et qu'est-ce qu'un gouffre de 26 places entre ennemis ? Si Cardiff peut faire face à l'hyperactivité de Leeds, cela pourrait être un classique.Les sujetsFA CupVille de CardiffLeeds UnitedRéutiliser ce contenu

Ard Carraigh
Ard Carraigh is the capital of Kaedwen, a hardy fortress city with few of the comforts and amenities you might find in other capitals. It sits near the center of the country, not associated with any lake or river. The legendary founder of Henselt’s line, Viduka, was led to this unusual site by a unicorn, which now features on the flag of Kaedwen. In town, locals are likely to harass visitors who appear too “foreign” or ostentatious. It is a rough town for non-humans, though dwarves are grudgingly accepted. Henselt’s palace is on a bluff just north of the main city and access for anyone other than nobles and military elite is limited.

“Can’t sleep?” (from Saskia, before the battle of Kaer Morhen maybe?)
“Hmm? Oh... hello, your highness. Thought everyone else around here was asleep... or having one last night together. Care for a drink? Just preparing for the day... the battle... ahead of us. Readying the armory, my weapons, equipment and potions, and going over everything I’ll need to know. What few records of the Wild Hunt exist in the Witcher Codex. Viper School had the most on them, all aspects of the occult really... an utter disgrace and crime what the Usurper did to their library. Never saw em’, but always believed in the Wild Hunt, growing up, even if it was mostly folk stories to scare children. Listened to every tale about them that I could. Ran into a mad, drunken fellow a couple decades back who claimed to have been abducted by them. Can’t say I’d ever imagined them coming here though. Ready to finally reduce this keep to rubble, where so many have tried.”
Eskel’s deep, calm voice observed a bit wryly, marred features smiling faintly the southern Queen in exile’s way. Yellow, bestial eyes studied the blonde, rather striking and well built, young woman closely. He’d not really spoken to Queen Saskia since her arrival at Kaer Morhen beyond his courtesies and greetings... but then he hadn’t spoken much to the others either. A colorful assortment of characters though... and the most people who had been at Kaer Morhen in decades. It was strange to play host to so many... but it was a welcome necessity. They weren’t about to turn away help where it was being offered. People willing to risk their lives fighting against a mythical advanced elven race of dimensional conquerors, for a school of four outcasts in the Blue Mountains of Kaedwen.
In defense of it and Ciri, someone most of them didn’t even know. Especially considering they had all dropped matters important to themselves to be here, including the reclamation of her throne, in her case, the fight for her own people. Liberating Upper Aedirn from the Empire. It was good to find out there were still decent people in a world such as theirs. That there were people who would still fight for the Witchers, after all their schools had sacrificed for the ungrateful Continent over the centuries. He gestured invitingly to the seat beside him, for her to join him at the table of the main hall, where he sat going through a pile of various old dusty texts and tombs that comprised the Witcher Codex. He was having some difficulty, not many of the texts spoke of the Wild Hunt, beyond the hearsay and rumors the various Witchers had overheard and recorded while on the path. At last he looked up again from the book he held her way, shrugging his spike covered shoulders slightly.
“Still, I’m glad Destiny has deigned for me to be here this time. Not afraid. This is where I belong. I wasn’t here during the pogrom this school endured, decades back. Small handful of us were out on the Path at the time, the rest of us were here when it happened. I should have been here to fight and die if need be defending my home from that enraged horde and the scheming mages leading them, alongside my brothers. Instead of returning to a ruined keep of corpses and old memories, save for Vesemir. Still regret that... maybe this is my chance to set that absence right again.”
The Witcher shared with her calmly, thinking back to that time, coming home. What it had been seeing it all destroyed... or nearly all of it. He remembered the burnings, himself, Vesemir, Geralt and Lambert having to carry the remains of all their brothers one by one to the hills. Building wooden platforms for their final rest... scattering their ashes through the valley on the winds. By contrast, they had dumped the corpses of the enraged peasant army in the moat, where their bones lie to this day. The envious mages who had coveted the secrets of mutation had fallen in the battle, the ones who had provoked the peasants in the first place, got another sort of treatment. Their heads had been planted on wooden stakes outside of Kaedwen, to inform the folk that they had failed to accomplish their genocidal goal.
Vesemir had been adamant on that gesture, with Lambert particularly enthusiastic. Maybe the warning... bluff really, given their reduced numbers... had worked... the Kaedweni Nobles had sent out edicts to the Mages and peasants to leave the Witchers alone. To steer well clear of the valley and to stop harassing them when they came to town. Passed through. With soldiers enforcing said edicts for a time. About all the support they had ever got from the Nobles... they certainly hadn’t donated any coin or workers to restore the keep, even after the School’s many years of service to the realm. Everything had been left to the four of them ever since. At last he closed the book in his hands, setting it down among the others, hand rising and rubbing his mutilated cheek absently in uneasy consideration. Then he reached for a nearby tankard of White Gull and took a sip from it, savoring the warmth. He returned his attention fully back to the monarch, smile deepening a bit as his low, steady voice washed over her again.
“How about you? Seem well accustomed with war, difficult yet worthy causes, even for your relative youth. Heard impressive stories about you on the Path. ‘The Dragonslayer of Aedirn’. Heard Emhyr stole Lormark from you recently as well. My sympathies. Reckon you’ll take it back if... when we survive here. Can’t pledge my sword to political causes... but I ain’t ignorant. Don’t get my age being so. Yours is about the only worthy one I can think of. Never cared for Henselt... especially his choice in Sorceress advisors... nor the Emperor, refusing to reverse the Usurper’s anti Witcher policies in Nilfgaard. Henselt’s ancestor, King Viduka, granted Lormark legally to Aedirn, he no longer had a claim to it any more than Emhyr. Would be like Henselt deciding he wanted Kaer Morhen Valley back as well after his ancestors gave it to our guild. Can bet he would, if there was anything of value for him up here. When you take your kingdom back, if you need a simple Witcher’s expertise, let me know. Wars tend to draw monsters of all sorts to the land, prey on villages and towns while the soldiers are away. Was planning on heading out there when I return to the Path, come Spring.”

The 1974 Charidee Shield: Kevin Keegan, stripped to the waist, his middleweight boxer’s build rippling in the Wembley sun with Billy Bremner’s pudgier, milkier frame following him to the sideline after their double sending-off. Brian Clough, already quarter-way through his 44 day Leeds reign, smirking in the dugout. The 1965 FA Cup final: a diving Ian St John heading the winner as teammate Gerry Byrne plays on with a broken collarbone. Tony Yeboah walloping in a Yorkshire pudding-fuelled screamer on the first Monday Night Football of the 1995-96 Premiership season. And, in November 2000, Mark Viduka dinking in his fourth goal of an almighty comeback at Elland Road.

Why we need them back: Leeds belong in the Premier League and this game proves it - opinion
Leeds United needed to stave off a shock relegation back in 2003 as they headed to Highbury to face Arsenal. The Gunners, by comparison, were attempting to defend their Premier League title.
What happened next? The Elland Road club, naturally, pulled a miraculous victory from somewhere and ensured that Arsene Wenger’s men would not be crowned champions.
Indeed, as financial troubles off the field began to take hold of the club, Leeds suddenly plummeted from a Champions League final two years previous and a fifth-place finish the season before to scrapping it out at the foot of the table, eventually finishing in 15th – just five points above the relegation zone.
Leeds still had a number of stars, such as Mark Viduka and Harry Kewell, while Arsenal entered the most important game of that season without several key players, namely Patrick Vieira, Sol Campbell, Lauren and Freddie Ljungberg. Accordingly, a new centre-back partnership of Martin Keown and Oleg Luzhny was formed, with Kolo Toure lining up at right-back.
Leeds’ star duo were quick to take advantage, particularly Kewell. Just five minutes in, a lofted pass from Jason Wilcox was caught on the chest by the Aussie attacker as he powered between Arsenal’s unfamiliar centre-halves in the left-hand channel.
Isolation Busters: The only quiz you need to cure your boredem
World Class score: 95% | Expert score: 80% | Veteran score: 65% | Intermediate score: 45% | Amateur score: 30% | Try Again: 5%
One step later and Kewell had rifled the ball on the half-volley, one of the sweetest strikes you’ll ever see in the Premier League, sending it fizzing through the air and crashing into David Seaman’s right inside netting. The Gunners stopper never stood a chance, and Leeds were unexpectedly one-nil up at Highbury.
Arsenal had plenty of attacking quality too in Denis Bergkamp and Thierry Henry, one of the Premier League’s most iconic strike-forces, and hit back after half an hour. A then-incredibly young Paul Robinson could only parry Ray Parlour’s speculative effort from midfield onto the post with his fingertips, leaving Henry to head home a rebound as the ball bounced out. It wasn’t the most stylistic goal Arsenal had scored that season, but a vital one at the time nonetheless.
A few minutes later, Parlour – still searching for his first goal of the campaign – had an effort – almost a carbon copy of the first – cleared off the line by Michael Duberry. And a few minutes after that, a long-ranger from Thierry Henry once again connected with the post. But as Sylvain Wiltord rose to convert the rebound in identical style, the linesman raised his flag for offside.
Arsenal would draw level once again in the second half, after an Ian Harte free kick took knicks of Ashley Cole and Gilberto Silva to trickle past Seaman – marking three seasons in a row in which the then-Ireland full-back had hit the net at Highbury. There was a little more precision to Arsenal’s second equaliser, Robert Pires and Henry combining to unleash the former in the box, where he quickly laid the ball back to Bergkamp, who stabbed it past Robinson with the outside of his boot.
That created a last half an hour in which Arsenal needed to score another to give themselves a chance of catching up with United before the end of the campaign and Leeds knew the home side were there for the taking, a consequence of the questionable defending they’d shown throughout the afternoon and the cauldron of pressure Highbury had become.
There was plenty of to-and-thro, not least including the most beautiful play of the day – Parlour stepping over a lay-off from Henry to allow Bergkamp the chance for a curler from just outside the box, which unfortunately continued to spiral instead of dropping into the top corner of the net – and Henry stepping in from the left, in typical Henry style, before once again booming a shot off the woodwork. It was later followed by a low cross travelling across the six-yard box, going begging.
Then, at the other end, the telling moment came in the 88th minute. Leeds captain Dominic Matteo, finding himself free in midfield for the first time of the afternoon, launched a long pass to Viduka, who was standing in yards of space in Arsenal’s half – too much space in fact; replays would show the Leeds front-man had run back from an offside position.
Nevertheless, Viduka charged towards the penalty area from the right-hand side, beautifully stepped over the ball to place it onto his left foot and curled it past a once again helpless Seaman into the right corner.
In a jackpot or bust fixture for both sides, it was Leeds who came out on top by the skin of their teeth, preserving their Premier League status for another season and clinching their old rivals, Manchester United, the title. Yet, Arsenal fans will argue fate played them a cruel hand that day; the Gunners hit the post four times, had a goal ruled out for offside and were caught by two stunning goals on the counter-attack, alongside a free kick that took a wicked double-deflection.
However, that epitomises why this game should be remembered as a Premier League classic. From efforts cannoning off the woodwork and cleared off the line to controversial offside calls, the difference in every area of the pitch and eventually the scoreline was a matter of mere inches. On another day, this game could have panned out entirely differently.
While Arsenal went on to become the Invincibles in the following season, however, Leeds could resist relegation no longer, plummeting into the second tier from which they are yet to return.
And if anybody doubts why we need Leeds back in the Premier League, they only need to look back at this incredible all-or-nothing game.
They’re a big club bursting with ancient rivalries, and have an incredible knack of showing up on the big occasions.
