I was blessed to be a teenager in those days when football wasn't dominated by the team with the biggest cheque book. Ok they signed sniffer Clark for a then record ยฃ166,000 but the bulk of the team were brought in just out of school. As a young Scottish Leeds fan I never got the chance to see them at Elland Rd but I was very fortunate to see the many great Scottish Leeds players at Hampden in a Scottish jersey. It's a shame Eddie Gray missed out on many Scottish caps through injury, he was a special talent. Thanks for the memories, Eddie and Frank Gray, Billy Bremner who played 773 times mostly as captain, Peter Lorimer, David Harvey, Joe Jordan, Gordon McQueen, Duncan Mackenzie. Those days are gone, it's all about money, no more loyalty playing for the jersey. Sadly, I've no time for football now, maybe gets played on better surfaces by fitter players who's diet is better, but 69% are not even British getting paid more in a week than the PM gets in a year. Just pathetic. ๐ข๐ข
i know revie tried to buy wins on bribery, why god knows, especially when you had one of the greatest football teams in England, and im a LFC fan….watch Leeds destroy southapton in 1973 i think. its on youtube, perfection
Leeds lost more than they won by a very long way. Fa cups particularly and in Europe. Jackie played in 4 fa cups after the world Cup.won one. Credit they won the league at A๐ฎnfield,, 2 uefa cups. Well beaten in the European Cup. Thier fans destroyed Paris after 76 Bayern. Classy of them.Not a patch on paisley's Liverpool. Jackie should have moved to Liverpool when he had the chance

6:51 back when you could pass back to your keeper and he could pick the ball up.

Star studded Leeds The most skillful execution masters of their craft ! Alan Clarke most underrated English footballer
This match should be kept to show all the current footballers who are earning a crazy amount of money, doing what these guys did for a Pittance.

" A bit of trouble in the crowd…the police are sorting it out", classic old school commentary!๐
Three occasions when the Gelderd End would be guaranteed to buzz with excitement.
1. Lorimer lining up to take a free kick with the goal in visual range.
2. Eddie Gray on the ball taking on a defender – hopes of Burnley revisited.
3..Billy Bremner on the ball anywhere – a sense that anything cold happen.
That was a magnificent Leeds side but Iโm always left wondering if Mick Jones ever scored a clean goal!
Absolutely superb display from a leeds side at their peak
Happy memories

Missed out on double last game of season made to play Monday night after playing cup final sat disgrace
If i remember correctly they also creamed Southampton around this time 7-0 which was also on MOTD
Stepney really was a pony keeper.
Why are they not falling down in agony after a foul?
Cracking game, dominated by the great Leeds side of that time. the game back then was how it should be played,
There was really good footballers in those days. Great skill, accurate passing, good shooting, and all on a muddy pitch.
Saw this destruction myself …. I was there as a 12yr old ๐ Super Leeds !
Enjoy, the championship
When My football was a golden period of endless excitement. Leeds Utd were the team of that day.

I was there, what a fantastic memory to see all those legends of the day.
Whatever Clough said, Leeds were a great team. On their day, by far the best. Yorkshire hasnโt had one like them since.
6-2 5-1 4-2 2-0 how we will miss those six easy points now they are down AGAIN
