You could reel off a list of Leeds players from the early to mid-80s (mostly produced through the Colts side) who had a handful of appearances then disappeared.

Phil Turner, Phil Owen, Mark Campbell as well as the aforementioned McNeill, Sowden and the Mackintosh twins.

Graham Middleton.

Has there ever been any other Leeds player actually named after a part of Leeds?

adrian morley but hardly obscure.

willie oulton.

I give you the exotically named (although with no first team appearances to his name) Lorenzo Marquez-Laynez.

Willie Oulton, although probably more wakefield than Leeds

Derek Scholes from the early fifties. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scholes,_Leeds

Whoooo hold on there Oulton is in Leeds its where i am from and dont tar me with that brush!!

Anyway how about A N Other i seem to remember him appearing a lot in the 80's

Graham Middleton.

So good we named him twice?

there is a thread for players named after parts of leeds. this is the obscure players thread.

If its the same one - Chris Chapman was part of Huddersfield's revival in the early 1990's and was a key member of our 1991-92 3rd division championship side !

he played for the old Bramley before they folded IIRC

There was a Chris Chapman that played a solitary 1st grade game for Leeds but that was April '99

So that doesn't sound like your fella unless he was about 12.

I think the Leeds version re-surfaced in Castleford.

Graham Middleton.

Want a useful factoid about the Batley legend?

Made his debut away at Salford under Douggie Laughton. Not that interesting I hear you all cry. However, the game was on Sky and I have the video. What is unique about this SKY RL broadcast though?

Ten trillion brownie points and a four week exemption from being labelled a fekkwitt for anyone with the correct answer.
