Despite the great memories of ET, I think my abiding memory was him trying to chip the on rushing Widnes defence in a last ditch attempt to help us win a Challenge Cup game against them in his first stint with Leeds. I think it the ball fell nicely into Rick Thackerey's hands and that was all she wrote...........still the man was a genius to me, with a glide across the pitch that I've seen very few others have in all the time I've watched Rugby League.

Loved Lyons, and Currie too, it was such a shame we couldn't get them to Wembley as it was have been amazing watching them grace the Wembley turf in Leeds colours.

I remember day Offiah signed for Wigan being at Headingley for an A Team game and saying to a guy who used to run his own coaches Ronnie Robinson that i wish we had signed him. "We dont want him all he can do is score tries" he said. I reminded him the day the flyer Offiah scored 10 against us!!!

He was right, all he could do was score tries, not many only 500 or so.

I wish we had signed him instead of Ellery, imagine how many offiah would have scored playeing outside Innes and with echoey throwing the long balls out wide, reckon he would have poutdone his own tally for wigan.

I remember being at the 10-10 Naughton Park game in the Cup. My Uncle told me he'd never seen me looking so ashen faced as David Creasser came across to take the kick. I missed the replay as my Dad worked nights and couldn't take me, but I went to both semi final games, although I hardly saw any of the replay as I was only 10 at the time and the Kop at Elland Road being busy to the point it was quite dangerous.

The cross bar semi final was the first time I had ever cried at a game of rugby, that was real pain, and I still get wound up about it now

I used to quite like Neil Hunt when he played for Leeds, although not sure he could be classed in the "best of" category.....I also quite liked Carl Gibson when he played on the wing, I very much enjoyed his 2 tries in the Yorkshire Cup final against Castleford....which being a fan at that time meant it was quite exciting to see Leeds lift a trophy, even if it wasn't any of the one's we really craved.

Dear old Ronnie and his missus Margaret. Mr Leeds Rugby League Travel. Many happy memories on the Briardon Bezzer over't hill in the late '80s.
