Who’s collected the award? Patrick Bamford while holding his face?

In the year they were fined for spying on the opposition? Madness.

They can stick the trophy with their European Cup from 1975 the oddballs think they won.

I heard he tripped on his way up to the podium and demanded the presenter be sent off the stage.

Not yet got tired of joking about this to many Leeds supporting friends - they're all semi-embarrassed!

A lot of "hmmm" and drop of the head.

One single occurrence of sportsmanship in a thousand years and they get an award?

Classless club, classless fans.

They only evened up their cheating and even then one of the leeds players was chasing back trying to stop the goal.
As said above...classless club and fans,

To be fair Bielsa has binned off Jannson showing just how authentic and true to his beliefs he really is. Doubt Dyche would have the courage to throw out a key player for something similar

There's only one way to teach dirty Leeds a lesson.

Thank you for posting Stan - that is a quality video which perfectly captures feel of 1970s football - for anyone who wasn't there. Fletcher's overhead goal is of course iconic but the finish into the top corner by Doug Collins (?) is pure quality.

That retro kit would fly off the shelves in the club shop.

I was on that game but forgot all about the kit. I actually don't recall it from other away games, but my memory is sh!t tbh.
