I read this in the voice of Brian Clough which is ironic because he wasn’t really a fan of Leeds.

Was just having a look at the friendlies on livescore.com, not many today all though Europa FC are playing Portsmouth and Hearts Vs Plymouth at 6pm.
While Don Revie was manager there they were the dirtiest team in the football league and it took years before it began to fade from memory. Many supporters think it was the foreign players coming over that started all the diving and cheating in the UK but I reckon it was Revie and his band of talented but ruthless cheating thugs. I was there and I have not forgotten.
Hearts are 1-0 down, think it was a 16 year old that scored against them , some of the Hearts fans are having a meltdown. It's just a friendly with a number of thier players still out.
Even better Plymouth play in Hibs kits
A few results from today
Fleetwood 1-2 Dundee
Linfield 1-0 Kilmarnock
Morton 2-0 St Mirren
Hearts away to Dunfermline tomorrow.
Raith Rovers won 2 0 away at East Fife, Jamie Gullan has now scored in all four pre season matches. Kev D had little to deal with, and Sam Stanton is a class act.
Leeds were labelled a dirty team after a certain game at Goodison Park in 1964 nicknamed the battle of Goodison, it's easy enough to find newspaper articles about the game, the tag unfortunately stuck with them. They were no dirtier a team than anyone else and went on to become one of England's best ever teams playing some spectacular football.
My fondness for them was the Scottish connection and the all white strip.

Man U v Leeds just kicked off at 1600, still 0-0.
Fish starts the second half.
We should maybe try and get the other centre half as well, say we can develop the partnership.
Fish playing really well, hope not too well that they change their mind. :worried:
Tell you what I'd take more than will fish out of that team, they're all so comfortable on the ball. Some right good players in that young United side.
easy 3 points for man u
Fish had a really good second half in Oslo
He’s not going to be in with a sniff of their first team, only the most gifted youngsters have the slightest chance at a club like that, so the only change or mind they could have is to loan him to a better club. If this was his first season on loan to us it would be possible however it seems unlikely given the fact that they were apparently happy for him to return earlier today.
I look forward to watching him next season 😁
