Leeds 1 Sunderland 1- 15/3/67- the gates were closed half an hour before kick off with 57,892 inside ER and many more climbing over the walls, causing a Lowfields barrier to collapse and Ref Ray Tinkler (him again!) to halt the game while the pitch was cleared.

Don’t know. Has a look of his son but I think he’d have been a bit older than that in 68?

Great set of #LUFC stickers this, chuck them a ball then snap them playing with it, much better than the standard crouching pose. Must be from 71 as mentions the Fairs cup win but not the 72 FA cup. Interesting they used the old pre 64 club crest.

@roisinm.bsky.social Thanks for following- I still can’t message you for some reason, maybe one of our settings doesn’t allow it. I’ll try emailing your hotmail account.

Two years on since he’d left Leeds but we still hadn’t forgotten or forgiven him…

Two 70s design classics - the #LUFC away kit and the #Wales home kit. A post on Facebook prompted a discussion on what it would be like to combine the two. Next seasons away kit perhaps?

Maybe if you pay you get more privileges, just like twitter…

Villa v Leeds - if you’re on twitter I’ve posted some footage of classic past games. Can’t post on here due to the 60 second limit on videos 🤨

The Darkest Day - The YEP front and back pages from 30 April 2007 after the weekend which saw Leeds relegated to the third tier of English football for the first time in our history. It looked a long road back then and that unfortunately proved to be the case…

Wonder how many other players who weren’t even a first team regular were cover stars in the early 70s?! Only 187 games for Leeds in almost 15 years for Mick Bates, the eternal substitute. Undying loyalty to the cause or maybe a lack of ambition?

The one on the photo is the tilted version unlike the one on your profile!

Come on Ref!! Billy, Trevor and (I think) Eddie wearing the short-lived blue smiley badge shirt just can’t believe that decision…

‘There’s a red headed tiger known as Billy’…Bremner’s hair looks like you could cut your hand on it on this photo. Proper wire wool, 100% ginner but I bet he never got bullied for it at school!
#LUFC #70sLeeds #ALAW #MOT
Oh Frankie Frankie…wonder if Archie and Harry know that their grandad was a bit of a Marlon Brando lookalike in his younger days...

Top marks for first use of ‘the Peacocks’ since 1978 😉

Boot trouble for Billy…Bremner and Les Cocker inspect his studs on a muddy, icy pitch with a cinder track that looks like a ploughed field. Not Elland Road I don’t think?
#LUFC #60sLeeds #LS65
Photo finish…Big Jack wins it by a nose! Don was obviously no slouch even in his late forties. Wonder how much was at stake in this 100 metres training sprint?
