For Leeds that was,as usually they would of filled the whole away end.
If I remember right ,it was a night game,they were struggling in the old second division.
There was quite a lot of trouble on Sloper road after the game.

Definitely played them in the night once, they had a few in the Canton End Enclosure who didn't last long in there. I also remember thinking their support was poor, could be memory playing tricks on me though!

Was in Block A that game - first time I'd seen fans wearing Burberry suits, which seemed a little dandy at the time.

Looks more than I remembered - didn't Baird score...

They were everywhere, can't remember any on The Grange though, as you know the Bob Bank was the away end back then. Any honest Leeds fan will tell you they got battered that day, that's why Cardiff had such a rough time up there a few years later. Great loyal fans, fair play.

Actually, YES I think a 13 year old could do that today, up until 10 years ago, maybe not.
