Thank you very much. I've read really much on this forum lately, so finally I managed to register![]()
My english is what you can call rusty, but I will try my best to make myself understandable.
Agreed, there is just something different about speaking with likeminded people who share the same memories.
Out of curiosity, did Viduka and Kewell play a role of why you support Leeds? Asking because of the Australia-link.
I'm glad you seemed to like my story
Sadly no, I'm a Leeds fan from back in the mid 70's (like your father), I was born about 20 miles (32kms) from the ground. Back in those days not many Aussies played in Europe but I did enjoy when Viduka and Kewell did play for us and before Kewell became the player he was I was lucky enough to meet him in a pub in Newcastle (New South Wales, Australia) and got to speak to him for a few hours. Sadly the way he left has left many Leeds fans (and some Aussie ones) angry at him.
