RIP, obviously the club will recognise his contribution to Leeds with a minute's silence next Friday.
Condolences to his family, he cannot have been very old.
I hope they gain some consolation from being able to relive some of his finest moments on video and/or DVD.
A very sad loss.

Leeds all time great, in a time when World Class is banded about like confetti, I can safely say that in his case the phrase World Class didn't do him justice - he was considerably better than that.

One of those "once in a generation" players, to stand out in the team that he played in when he was 18 you had to be good, and the thing is, he stayed that good until the season he stopped playing first grade.

How do you know a player is good ?

When he bosses the game and nobody really sees what it is he's doing.

And his fish and chips weren't that bad either.
