Deane vs Spurs


Another great but often forgotten goal; probably Brian Deane's best for the club.

Great solo run and finish!

It came on the final day of the 94-95 season, and secured our qualification to the UEFA Cup... back when it was actually a decent competition.

Harte Clerihew

Lot's of talk about Ian Harte this week. Here's where I stand on his record for Leeds:


Some great goals and memories, but best left in the past in my opinion. Warnock is better.

Crap Loanees as Pro Wrestlers #12

(Nathan) Blake Beverly:

So; has-been clogger, or inspired signing with a 50% goal to game ratio?!

Technically both. Blake only played twice for us; one start in the abject home defeat to Crewe, and one away at Coventry, where he bagged a goal.

Who knows how it would have turned out, were it not for a serious injury suffered in that Coventry game?

The fact that he ended up playing for Newport County within a year could be a bit of a clue.

Corinthians: Kewell


Much as I cannot stand the man for what has happened since, I was a big fan back in the day. The one in the sky blue kit is quite rare, I think.
