Oystein, you're 2 months older than me, you old goat! ;-) My first proper memory of Leeds United is watching the 73 Cup Final on our Colour TV. I remember the "It's a Knock Out" thing with the two teams, and then remembering why oh why had Leeds not won. Someways it seems like yesterday other ways it seems like a hundred lifetimes ago.

To: [email protected] Date: Wednesday, 24 February, 2010, 22:04 Born 1966, I will be 44 come September… Been Leeds through and through as long as I can remember… probably since I was 6-7 years old. Got my first Leeds strip (shirt, shorts and socks) when I was about ten, the yellow smiley admiral away thing with white and blue stripes on it… Gee, was I proud! (Still have it, it is still in use, now by my ten year old) My first game was in 1995; league opening; did that in 1996, too… My first away game was at Baseball ground (3-3), after my first ever Leeds list meet at Brunswick, a pub I found due to an excellent ascii map brought by the list… seem to recall it was mr barber’s art? (sorry to all involved if that is wrong…) My first away game in the “away supporters end” was at Sheffield (2-0 Leeds)… Took the train from London, and couldn’t get back to London on the night… Was that league opening 97? Øystein p.s. I am not olderst on the list, not youngest on the list, not been here for the longest time… But it has been some years on the list… perhaps my claim to fame can be something along the lines of “foreign list member putting up other list members while Leeds are in their home town” or something? _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
