Walking from the HJ to the bus station after the game, I saw some Graffiti on Dallam lane opposite the 3 Pidgeons-"O'Jays Dolly"

I remember seeing this in the 70's along with "wires razor gang" on Priestley Street bridge. The latter has long gone, but who is Dolly? Is he or she still around? Was he/she a fan of the O'Jays? Is there any older Graffiti about town? Does anyone care?

Punk Phase II or something? I remember seeing it as a kid walking over to Wilderspool and it still being there last time I walked over the bridge, probably a couple of years ago now tbh.

It's got to be "free Radio" on the old railway bridge on halfields road. I am 42 and it was there when I was going to Beamont infants school 37 years ago!!

top of eagle brow... over the years the council have had the 'stop' removed on many occasions.. only for the cheeky chappies to keep putting the stop back again.

Is the graffitti on that bridge near Dallam still there, 'Welcome to Dallam'?.

Anothjer one, not thje oldest but one of the funiest I found was on the shop that is now Phils Store on Central Ave, Orford.

It was run by Pakistani's and local kids wrote on the roller shutters Gandi is a twit with an a. Obviously Gandi was indian and pakistanis and Indians don't exactly see eye to eye, just found it funny.

Can't beleive nobody has mentioned 'The Phantom was here' contained within some kind of batman symbol on the side of peninsula house in orford. Has been there since at least 1981 and it looked old then!

Gandi is probably a 15 year old English born chav with Indian parents. I doubt it was a political message against Mahatma Ghandi.

When you are on the train going past Old Trafford you go past a wall with "Charlotte is a Fat Grass" on it.

Coming up the main road into Leeds City centre "Welcome to Leeds. Now F--k off"

Behind the closest tube station to the Houses of Parliament someone has put MCFC.

Also recently there has been a spate of "tagging" in Headingley and Burley in Leeds, first someone was signing "Reggie Jackson" around recycle bins, walls, signs etc, now they have cleaned all that there is a load of emo graffiti with slogans like "love hurts, feel despair", "alone?" and sad face stick people being hanged.

If we are moving away from old to funny, there was a sign erected a few years ago on the border between Fearnhead and Orford, saying "Welcome To Orford", which some witty chap deafced with spray paint, putting an S in front of Orford and and L over the first 'r'.
