Great man – Leeds Legend – Sad loss – RIP John

There's been three things whilst watching Leeds that has made me shed a tear...

The '99 Challenge Cup victory at Wembley.

The securing of the first domestic Championship in my lifetime in 2004.

And today, upon learning of the passing of John Holmes.

I was privilledged to see him play.

A great player. And a great man. We will never forget him.

What a good un this kid was,he used to frighten us black and whites to death at the Boulevard when he had the ball in his hands.A good un when there were plenty of good uns about,R.I.P. John,a pleasure to have seen you.

Terrible news. My favourite Leeds player. A player with real style that was rare when he played, almost non-existant today.
RIP John.
