I would have liked to re-visit the Motown museum in Detroit, I adored it the first time, but likely no time on this trip. May stop off at Bay City too.... _____ From: Nicholas Armit [mailto:arm...@yahoo.com] Sent: 28 April 2011 18:01 To: Steve Gillen; 'Mark Tuffey'; beden...@gmail.com; bruvvalee...@yahoo.co.uk Cc: leedslist@gn.apc.org Subject: Re: [LU] KO Saturday Holland - nice Houghton Lake - no idea Mackinac - nice, but touristy Milford - eh, why?

I got all excited. But yes I get your point. easily Man U is the biggest, followed by Barcelona. ________________________________ From: Mark Tuffey <wiscole...@hotmail.com> To: beden...@gmail.com; bruvvalee...@yahoo.co.uk Cc: leedslist@gn.apc.org Sent: Thursday, April 28, 2011 11:43 AM Subject: Re: [LU] KO Saturday In the States my experience has been that Leeds are no bigger than Bolton, Villa, Sunderland, etc. We are certainly no where near the "size" of Arsenal, Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool. The "big four" have massive followings and their gear can be seen in shops and being worn by people everywhere. In all my years going to the footy pubs in Milwaukee I've NEVER, EVER met another Leeds Utd supporter.
