Can you take your horseshite banter elsewhere please.
You're clearly a young lass who's had too much Lambrini...
Come back in 10/20 yrs time when you understand a bit about the real world and actually understand a bit about football history. I know you're only young, but accept that fact (enjoy it...), but don't preach to every bugger on here about Leeds Utd's history. I can only really go back to the mid 70's for hand-on history of Town, but I've also supported the club for over 30 odd yrs so have picked up a lot of history along the way. And as for Billy Bremner etc. then give it a rest. I imagine that statue is better looked after than any of the war memorials in Leeds, but your "COE" team that he headed were really just a bunch of dirty bast**ds, fact. You'd have been a lot better putting up a statue of John Charles on that spot if anything. I've always thought the outpouring of grief in recent years and statues for people like Bremner is just typical of this sheep mentality our media now breeds. You're spouting off on a Div 3 board love & when you do doubtless kick and charge your way to the championship I expect that you'll be as up your own arse in success as you were in abject failure at the start of the season.
Maybe Town should install a JG or a VM statue? - No, sorry, we're not up our own arse are we.
Do you want to know the offside rule BTW?

It was a sign of respect that they didn't use ginger paint !!!!
(Actually, my real opinion is that it would've been very funny if it wasn't on the anniversary of his death. A case of very bad timing, I'd say)

i can remember one of the town fans (ossie i think) telling me about going to watch a kids game where lorimer's (or one of the other l**ds players from that era) kid was playing and he had ginger hair. maybe bremner thought he was the eric cantona of that time.

0ssie......could write a book about him Bob! He started out as a Reading fan and was involved in a fight against Town down at Elm Park in the early 8os (late 70s?) When he left the army he married Angie and came to live in Liversedge......couldnt decide who to go watch and drew Towns name out of a hat (so to speak) He became a fanatical Town fan and one of the mainstays of the Chilly bus/van era. Hard man with a heart of gold....never let me down....and we had some VERY VERY funny and some VERY VERY serious moments together.......lost touch a bit now but when I see Simmy or Chilly they tell me he is a big business man in the Sheffield area!

tom, he was actually with the town fans at reading when we first met him. they put the town fans down the side in the middle of the reading fans and that was the first time we came across him. the next time was at wimbledon the first time we played them. Chilly got the group train ticket and ossie was at that game. he had some relatives round our way and came back on our group ticket on the overnight train from london, getting back to leeds station at 6am sunday morning. He then had to get back to his barracks near reading by monday morning (must have seemed like a good idea at the time). He spent most of his time going to town games, but attended the odd l**ds game if there was the possibility he'd get to hit someone. You're right about having a book to himself, don't think a chapter would be enough. Last time i saw him he told me off for wearing colours , as i usually wear a blue and white gutra (arab chequered head dress, except i wear it as a to keep warm round my neck).

Bloody hell, do you think he shagged Princess Di. Naah, Harry's too tall (by about 3 feet). On that subject, I just looked at the photo of the Town team from the 70s in the other section. How the heck is Terry Gray Eddie and Frank's brother. They were tall with black hair. He's short and blonde. I've seen him in the Rising Sun a few times when I've been over (I think he lives in the lounge there), but I've never been able to find the words to ask !!!

Well, I seem to remember through the jetlag and Tetley bitter haze that he said he was. He never mentioned the words half-brother or milkman !!
I'm sure someone on 'ere knows.
