Little is known about Geoffrey Crookes, other than he was a Junior or Reserve team player with United during the Second World War. He only played the four games for Leeds at Outside Left. His first three games came in the 1944-45 Football League Northern Section Second Championship in a 6-1 win over Hull City at Elland Road followed two weeks later by a 1-3 defeat by Barnsley at Elland Road and then the next week by a 0-6 drubbing by Sheffield United at Bramall Lane. His final game came in the second game of the 1945-46 season of the Football League Northern Section 1-3 loss to Chesterfield at Elland Road. It is not thought that Crookes played professionally in the Football League.
