But while LOST football wasn’t cool, some of us still loved it. Jon Howe looks back with nostalgia DECADE at the decade that football forgot... A game you might have forgotten November 8, 1980 n Leeds United 0 Arsenal 5 While Leeds fans of the modern era have fresh memories of humiliating home defeats dished out by the football colossi of Blackpool, Watford, Nottingham Forest and Preston, such a public dishonouring on our own doorstep rarely occurred during the 1960s and ’70s, even as Revie’s great side began to break up and the club descended into that murky tunnel called “transition”. That all changed, of course, when the clock ticked over into the 1980s. The visit of Arsenal found Leeds slowly finding their feet after that legendary sniffer of all things loose in the penalty area, Allan Clarke, had taken over as manager. Leeds were struggling to find the net and Clarke shored up his defence before worrying Leeds manager Allan Clarke with his assistant Martin Wilkinson. about being too expansive Eddie at the other end. It was a his most productive season in an Arsenal shirt with 16 league Gray somewhat uncharacteristic appearances – picked at Leeds’ failings and executed a stance for one of the club’s stunning 5-0 win that left Elland Road dumbstruck. greatest goalscorers, but one Leeds were 2-0 down by half-time with young goalkeeper that few argued with.

That’s 46 years of incredible loyalty. In fact he’s only missed one friendly and that was through no fault of his own. An air traffic control strike prevented him from boarding a flight to Toronto – he had a match ticket and a flight ticket. Brian Clough lasted 44 days. Jock Stein lasted 44 days. Another 19 managers have come and gone (20 if you include Eddie Gray twice – although he’s far from gone, given his role as commentator on Yorkshire Radio with the brilliant Thom Kirwin, hospitality stuff and complete and utter devotion to Leeds United) and Brian McDermott is the latest man to depart Elland Road.

Given the scintillating football the team displayed in the spring of 1972 and the club‟s outstanding level of experience in Europe, it was easy to understand the expectation that United would go a long way in the competition. On paper that seemed a safe prediction; on grass, the matter was less clear cut. A first round pairing against MKE Ankaragucu of Turkey seemed a formality, despite the long trip for the first leg in the Turkish capital; it was the furthest United had needed to travel in eight seasons of European competition. The game represented the Turks‟ European debut, whereas it was United‟s 65th match in such tournaments. Despite receiving a warm welcome from generous hosts, United had to be content with a 1-1 draw from the first leg before scraping through by virtue of Mick Jones‟ goal at Elland Road. The programme from the match The pattern was repeated in the second round, against the East Germans, Carl Zeiss Jena. A goalless draw in the first leg in the Ernst Abbe stadium was a reasonable opening gambit, but it was the second half of the second leg before Trevor Cherry‟s powerful strike broke the deadlock at Elland Road.

Leeds NEVER conceded five goals … period! In fact, in the 19 games played up to that point, United‟s iron clad defence had kept 10 clean sheets, including matches against Liverpool, table-topping Arsenal and mighty Ferencvaros (twice) in the Fairs Cup final. But there was no hint of a fluke about the result: Burnley had been on fire and took the Whites apart with some breathtaking football. By the time of the return fixture at Elland Road the weekend before Christmas, normal service had been resumed … Leeds were undefeated since Turf Moor and were hot on the heels of Liverpool in pursuit of the League title; Burnley were tenth, without a win since November 9, having shipped seven goals at Manchester City in the first week of December. It took Leeds a while to get the result out of their system even though they managed to quickly stabilise things. A refocusing on defensive basics delivered three successive goalless draws in the League immediately after the debacle at Turf The Yorkshire Evening Post of 23 December 1968 carries Terry Moor, though the points they dropped cost them top Lofthouse's report of United's thrashing of Burnley 2 days previously - featuring pictures of Mick Jones in a painful clash spot.
