Leeds United F.C. History: Foreword

In compiling this reasonably extensive but by no means comprehensive History of Leeds United from 1919 to present day much use has been made of personal memorabilia and first hand experiences, but in general the accepted facts have been strictly  adhered to and several well known reference books have been used.

However, acknowledgement is made to the following:

Jabba: For his comprehensive statistics and in particular, the details of each season results, appearances and goal-scorers,  which have been hyperlinked to the relevant season. (And player details which have been hyperlinked to each player featured in photographs)

Paul Felton and RSSSF: For the use of the league tables for  all the Football Leagues. These have been hyperlinked to each  season to give a broader outline on just where Leeds United and  others figured in the pecking order of that particular season.

Mr Colin S. Jeffrey: For his ‘12 Years at the Top’ The Story in words and pictures of Leeds United’s Great Years 1963-1975, which IMHO could not be improved on!

Mike Beckmann and Paul Winning for their invaluable advice and assistance and without whom this site would not have been possible.

Paul Gregson for his excellent graphics

Just a personal opinion, for those who wish to have a further  in depth view of the History of Leeds United, I thoroughly recommend http://www.mightyleeds.co.uk/index.htm and http://www.wafll.com/leeds-united.html!

For LUFC Songs, Poems and Chants "Laughing Leeds Fan" has it all on his website http://www.electronickop.com and for chants and ringtones try http://www.fanchants.com/team/3/.

It is my intention to upgrade and improve the site on a regular basis by replacing photos where  they can be improved on and including others to keep the site up to date and more comprehensive. Should anyone have any old team or player photos or LUFC data to improve the site, please do not  hesitate to contact me at tahill@bigpond.net.au

Cheers
