On this day 1972, Leeds won the centenary cup final on my dad's 50th birthday. So for that day he was half as old as the FA Cup

Mick Jones in the last minute. Norman Hunter had to help him up the steps to get his medal.
Norman Hunter, I remember him - didn't he get into a fairly hilarious punch-up with Francis Lee? I was obsessed with football back then.

Yes, Leeds v Derby. Both of them were sent off, then Lee attacked Hunter again on the way off, and everyone else joined in

What team did you support?
-
Man City - there was an Esso promotion for the 1970 word cup. Football pennies. The first I got was Francis Lee, so decided to support City.
-
I remember those. You could have had Colin Bell for City as well. I supported Leeds because Johnny Giles was Irish and with Leeds.
-
That early 70s Leeds side was very, very good. I remember watching them torment some side by just passing endlessly.
-
Southampton 7-0. Don Revie was friends with Southampton's manager, and told Leeds to stop scoring after 7 - hence the endless passing
-
- Don Revie was an interesting character. Not sure everything was always entirely above board back then! -
He was a fascinating study in psychology - perfectionist, superstitious, remembered players wives birthdays, ruthless, greedy, maybe dodgy
