Leeds v City FA Cup 78
- Thread starter Bluesince1979
- Start date
Seriously, the most scary place I went to as an away fan with City. Surrounded by waste ground and a council estate opposite. There didn’t seem to be any escape. Got spat on and punched, seemed worth it at the time as an 18yr old when you stupidly fear nowt. The atmos was incredible and our team were amazing.

I couldn't tell you to be honest Tim.Hi Colin or anyone else who can remember. I’m discussing the Jan Cup 78 Cup tie at Elland Road on another forum. I’ve told the Leeds fans that the guy Joe Corrigan rugby tackled was a Blue. Can anyone remember if that’s true and do you have any more details. I seem to think the Blue was from Cheetham Hill or Prestwich but I could well be wrong. Thanks

Love the wilderness years one, if you look closely right at the end you can see a junior cool cat scrapping with an old Leeds boy, must've been four times the kids age, lol

Most Leeds fans rated City bitd, always said Maine rd was a dodgy place to visit, a warm welcome awaited

Was that the game where the cool cats walked around the pitch, then jumped into the Leeds end. There were only about 20 of them and they kept stopping and waving to the city end.
