Lakenheath Old Boys

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

The Richest Match in the World!

 

Okay, boys - it's here. The EFL Championship Playoff Final - the "richest match in world football." My beloved Leeds United will take on Southampton at Wembley. At stake is the golden ladder to the Premier League and the riches that that promotion entails. The winner will have the privilege of being favorites for relegation next season. But the losers will drop to the rank of rank and file second-tier club, with dwindling resources and three recently relegated sides with a better prospect at promotion. 

Southampton did us over twice this season, the only club to do that. Russell Martin really does seem to have Daniel Farke's number. But this is a Cup Final, so anything could happen. So, come on, you Whites! Let's go! MOT!
