Was the official Alf Davies or had he left by then? Alf was very much one of the "open door brigade", but you have to question if anything actually ever happened after someone went to see him...

It's not what you do, it's what others perceive you to have done.

Visits that like are cheap to give (the player and official will have been on salaries anyway) but expensive to receive.

I don't think it was Alf. My mate didn't know him, he would have known Alf. It certainly worked. I think we had that 1000 club? and he was a member so thought he was entitled to a rant, after the visit he was happy for almost two weeks!

I agree that it's a great sales trick to "give" something away that is cheap to part with, but expensive to receive, however the perception bit will almost always come unstuck at some point and (IMO) isn't that great a piece of advice. Honesty in Sales is rare, but always the best policy as its key to maintaining your integrity, and that is the thing that people respect.

That's just made me cry.

While we are on this era, does anyone else miss the late 80's early 90's.



I know we were bobbins and the biggest under acheivers rugby league has ever seen but as my first few seasons of watching TGG will always have a special place in me heart.



No Rhinos

No Band

No having to get to the Southstand gates about 3 hours before k.o.

No stewards stopping you from changing ends at h-t.

Chants of the Green Green Grass of Headingley and "We lead you all whoever you may be...." to the tune of the lord of thye dance,m instead of the moronic chants we get these days



Ahh them were t'days

I get a bit nostalic for some things back then, but it soon goes away. We're watching the best Leeds team EVER!

Nostalgia. Not what it used to be is it?

What about 'Andy Gregory packed his bags & said goodbye to widnes.........................' to the tune of nelly the elephanant,

or 'Hey rock n roll Murpheys on the dole', when alex murphey was sacked from wigan but still commentated for bbc on a saturday aft.

Wasn't the best times for silverware, but well worth the admission fee!

And I forgot the best bit of all. 3 p.m. kick offs on a Sunday

Robin Whitfield running over to the southstand and waving the ball at us before the kick off, but really if you looked carefully he was flicking the V's at us.



Colin Maskill being sick on the pitch before kick off.

With the sad times surrounding John Holmes the other week, a few of his old mates were talking of the Wembley final in 1978 as it was shown on the screen etc. on the eve of the final Syd Hynes told the lads 'don't be nervous just spend tonight like any other friday' so Phil Cookson got in after midnight blathered, he scored the winning try! bet they don't study that in sports science.
