For once I agree with you.
But I'll have to take your word for it since I didn't really start to support Leeds in person until the late 80s following the HKR cup semi-final. |

Yes. He saved a few tries by sheer pace.
I remember one at the Boulevard where the Hull player was waving to the crowd on his way to score and Sterling tracked him down and knocked the ball from his grasp. |

I always liked Sterling.
Thought he was outstanding at times for Leeds, considering many fans thought he was too old when signed.
Shame he was treated so shabbily by the club in the end.
He didn't deserve that.
Nobody does. |

Would it be unusual for a number of players to want another player out if CEO and management made it clear by foul means or foul that they wanted that player out? Racial discrimination is a disgraceful way to go about one's business IMO.
I'm pleased the club has learnt from that experience and hasn't consciously, knowingly, unconsciously or unknowingly repeated the offences since. |

Considering what's been mentioned about one of your previous aliases and talk of the Holocaust then you might want to get off that thin ice.  |

Which talk was that?
And when did it take place?

Lovely try that, back in the days when wingers were built like proper wingers with speed and deft swerve rather than huge, barge-d, Charles Atlas, hit-up lookalikes who are sadly in vogue these days.
I was stood in the corner of the Southstand adjacent to the Western Terrace at the time. It is one of those moments that would make the Top 10 RL highlights of many folk who attended that fixture.
I didn't realise that Sterling had rounded Michael Maguire and left him for dead.
