I've a recollection of Andy Greg scoring a brace in a game at Headingley (for Leeds) but couldn't tell you who it was against.

A ll i remember of Gregory in a Leeds shirt is thinking that we'd signed a space hopper!

This was one of my darkest days as a Leeds fan. A black and red kit. Absolute disgrace.

Tricky one that, he scored so many tries for Leeds.



Andy Gregory's Leeds career:

Played 27 + 1, Tries 2, Goals 1, Drop Goals 0, Points 10

31-Jan-93 ..... Barrow ..... Home ..... CC - 01 ..... Won 54 - 18 (2 Tries)

07-Feb-93 ..... Hull KR ..... Away ..... CHP - 17 ..... Won 18 - 16 (1 Goal)

Interesting stuff tvoc.

Barrow reminds me of the 90-0 cup game against Barrow in about 1990.

My only recollections of that game was the Barrow physio/trainer/water carrier, who looked like Billy Bunter and wore a bobble hat, and the fact they were sponsered by Cumbria Co-op.

As to who played or scored...not a clue.

Did we not put 70+ past Leigh a week or two later?

The 90-0 I do remember a bit more. It was on the same day that Nelson Madela was released. David Young made his debut, and managed to look OK, coming on as a sub when we were already miles in front. It was about his only decent Leeds performance, apart from one against Salford (wihhc I think is why they signed him after we cut our losses).

Aha.

I remember Mandela being released and that I was watching on the portable tele in the kitchen. He walked out of prison later than scheduled and I can remember I really wanted to see it but at the same time was in a rush to get off somewhere. Now I know where.

The Fanzine had as its front cover that famous picture of a frail Mandela smiling on his way from Robben Island with a speech bubble coming from his mouth saying "Have the Loiners won owt yet?". Quality gag.

A touch over-reactive non? It's a bloody colour on a rugby jersey.

I wouldn't expect someone like you to understand so, with respect, button it.

Meh.
