You're probably right SB,although I wondered if it could have been the 0-0 in 1974...the picture below is from that game.Looks like the photo was from a match in Elland Road in 1972 (we were wearing the "away" socks of black with red tops). Not sure if it was either the 1-0 defeat in January (Allan Clarke scored with a header) or the 2-1 defeat in November (Tom McAlister was carried off unconscious (after colliding with Mick Bates with Clarke tapping in the 2nd goal) and Woody took over in goal
Yes it is the Easter Monday match in 1974. I was going to go to the match but after the 4-1 defeat at Derby two days earlier had made me tell my dad that I didnt fancy travelling to L**ds who were well ahead at the top of the table. We played them at home on Easter Tuesday and lost 2-0. There were so many L**ds fans that nightYou're probably right SB,although I wondered if it could have been the 0-0 in 1974...the picture below is from that game.

Keith Eddy in that picture I think ,was reading Rednapps biography yesterday and he says after he left Utd Eddy ran to try and get Bobby Moores shirt when they played in the American league after a Seattle game but was beaten to it by Rivelino.You're probably right SB,although I wondered if it could have been the 0-0 in 1974...the picture below is from that game.

I can't help thinking that must have been a tough decision for Bobby Moore though Sitwell...Keith Eddy or Rivelino?...errrr?Keith Eddy in that picture I think ,was reading Rednapps biography yesterday and he says after he left Utd Eddy ran to try and get Bobby Moores shirt when they played in the American league after a Seattle game but was beaten to it by Rivelino.
The 5th floodlight pylon (behind middle of John Street Stand) was put up in 1958, the smaller pylons were replaced in 1961-62 season so this photo would have been taken between summer 1958 and summer 1961. I cannot see the shirts the opponents were wearing well enoughPicture my grandad took ,think its in the 50s, I have no idea who against
I was sat right on the goal-line for this. Still to this day can't can't get my head round how he could possibly save it. The best save I've ever seen, without a doubt.
I'd recognise that doom and gloom anywhere it's against Wigan when got relegated , it also says Leighton baines on the score boardWe don't seem to do the balloons much anymore like we did here before the 2-2 draw with the pigs .........

I have a whole bunch of pictures I took from the front row of the kop that day from the warm up to during the match including the build up the Whitehouse's goal and the celebration, I have posted them before but I'll sort them out and put them up again tomorrow.
By Christ that didn't half cost us.
