They had joked there that he was the Yorkshire Ripper. The police used to go round the pubs of Leeds and play the infamous hoax tape of the Geordie voice belonging to the guy who claimed to be the Ripper. They would ask, ‘Does anyone recognise this voice?’ Voices would shout back, ‘It’s Jimmy bloody Adamson.’ By 1980 he was none too popular at Elland Road.

  • Alan Peacock – Peach of a Player
    Players – Alan Peacock – Peach of a player Alan Peacock was among the unluckiest of all footballers, losing the best of his playing days to a succession of crippling knee injuries. If he had remained fit, it might well have been Peacock rather than Geoff Hurst who spearheaded England‟s World Cup winning line up in 1966 – he had been added to the England set up by Alf Ramsey in late 1965 when he was on top form for Leeds. He scored his third goal in six games for his country and seemed to be set fair for an exciting 1966. As it was, Peacock slipped into the shadows after more injuries. He dropped into the Second Division with Plymouth Argyle for whom he played a mere 11 games before surrendering to the inevitable and retiring at just 30. He took his tribulations with amazing fortitude. Johnny Giles: “I rated Peacock highly. Quite apart from his heading power, he was an accurate passer of the ball, and one of the most astute positional players I have seen. Peacock also had a wonderful sense of humour. He suffered badly with cartilage trouble not long after joining Leeds, which ruled him out of the game for long periods. But I never once heard him complain or walk around with a frown on his face. And if anyone tried to show him any sympathy he would reply: „Look, if I didn't Alan Peacock ... the most unfortunate of footballers have both cartilages missing I would be half a stone heavier!‟” Former England manager Walter Winterbottom described Peacock as “the finest header of a ball in the country,” and he was indeed deadly in the air.
