First game attended,Fave All time import,Long gone away grounds etc etc.

Just thought it would make interesting reading to see where this goes.

Carry on!

Ok then I'll start.

The pies at the Watersheddings,

Eric Grothes debut hatrick.

Crazed old loony woman calling Hugh Waddell a Lazy fat Slob as he was getting off the team bus at Barrow.

First game : An august/sept 1966 evening floodlit game at Headingley, can't swear but I think it may have been Cas, the song at the top of the Hit Parade (does that date me) that was played at half time was "They're Coming to take me Away" by Napolean IV - Damos favourite song

Import : Andrew Ettingshousen and for one glorious 30 seconds, Sam Backo, but just for 30 seconds

Fave Long-Gone Away Ground : Central Park on a semi-final day I let a man kiss me there in 1994

Can't remember. Stood on the Eastern terrace, in fact, running up and down a deserted eastern terrace, at some night game against some long forgotten opposition in the mid/early 1970s as a kid.

Ali Lautiti.

Naughton Park. I know it's technically still there but it isn't really, if you know what i mean. I remember going to one snow bound, freezing regal Trophy tie where Paul Dixon got sent off for smacking one of the Hulme brothers whilst the referee was giving a talking to for having smacked someone else moments earlier. Anyway, I remember it fondly because a lovely couple from Widnes (is that an oxymoron?) took pity on me and kept me supplied with hot soup, pies and sandwiches. very friendly old dears.

First League game was Salford v. Someone (can't remember) in a knockout cup game of some sort in 1987 at The Willows.

First Leeds game was away at Halifax (Thrum Hall) in 27th March 1989 - won 23-20.

Best import without any doubt was Morvin (carry me off on a stretcher) Edwards.

I used to love going to Central Park, the atmosphere was great, far better then the hermetically sealed DW.

First game was the CC Final, Hull vs. Featherstone (and my first bottle of Holstein Pils in a Cockney boozer). First Leeds Game was CC 3rd round (I think) at Wakefield 1981 or 82 - can't remember but it was that season (crossbar semi year?). Memorable for getting the $h1t kicked out of me in a an alley by 6 Wakey "fans" on the way back to the train station.

Most memorable import - same as NSF, Big Eric's debut hat trick against Leigh. Scored from his first touch, a sublime John Holmes floated pass that caught him in full stride. My favourite Grothe try though was against Wigan at home, when he came off the blind side from a scrum and smashed through the entire Wigan pack as it broke up, then rolled over Henderson Gill for good measure.

Away ground, difficult to say. Most of them were awful. I guess Naughton Park was remembered because they painted the concrete urinals black and white so you could p1$$ on Widnes collours at half time.

First match was the home game against St. Helens in the 83-84 season (Early 84 I believe)

Favourite import, a tough one, but it has to be ET. Best fullback I've seen in the Leeds colours (Sorry Webb)

Favourite ex-ground would be the old Wembley. I still remember dancing with joy and hugging the person next to me when Schofield went in at the corner in 94 and it looked like we might manage a fight back! (We didn't. )

First game i attended was a Warrington Bradford game at HQ in late 70's think it was a JP trophy final, first rhinos game was against Wigan i think in 1987 when Schoey scored four tries.

Best overseas import would have to be Cliff Lyons but honourable mentions to ET and Brad Godden

I used to like Central park if only for the moment Ellery scored to send us to wembley in 1994

Although I've always been a Bradford fan here's my two penneth.

First game at Headingley was a 12-4 win for Northern in 1986 with one Terry Holmes scoring a second half winner at the old scoreboard end.

The overseas player I most admired/feared at Leeds was Cliff Lyons.

I miss Thrum Hall, even thought the cesspits at the Jorvik Museum were cleaner.

First game Leeds -v- Australia 1986. We lost 44-0

Fave all time import: Brad Godden, because anyone who played outside him was elevated beyond their usual standard.

Fave long gone away ground: Wilderspool. As much as I like the new ground and it's location, the atmosphere you could get going at the old ground was fantastic.

Boxing Day 1998 when Wendell Sailor played was my first ever match. I’m currently writing up a short story of my experiences surrounding that day.

I went home at half time because it was cold

Leeds v Wakefield Trinity ' watersplash' final at Wembley 1968, not a bad introduction to our great game !

import- difficult to choose, E.T. I suppose

grounds, loved all the old grounds, Watersheddings on a freezing cold evening, Central Park,Fartown,Wheldon Road for an evening derby game when you just knew Syd Hynes would get sent off !

Leeds v Hull KR, Jan 1st 1976 in the snow.

ET probably my fave import.

Favourite defunct ground could well be Watersheddings, if only for the context it provides when folk try to tell me that Odsal can be chilly.

Thats the moment that the aforementioned strange man kissed me

There was a lot of pent-up passion in that kiss, I just don't think that I was his intended target though.
