Gary Speed's Lost Plaque On Its Way Home

July 29, 2021

Gary Speed - Galway Branch's 1993 Player of the Year 

In 1993 Gary Speed (RIP) was presented with the Player of the Year Award by Galway Branch of Leeds United Supporters. This group is now the Galway Whites - run by the same people.

In June, this year, an absolute gentleman named Mark, from Wrexham, contacted us looking for information about the Galway Branch. He had in his possession the plaque that was presented to Gary Speed al those years ago.

It had been found in a hotel close to Chester. they were having a clear out and a mate of Mark's took it. Mark realised that the plaque was significant and contacted us looking for information about it. We told Mark the story and we are delighted to say that Mark is making arrangements for the plaque to be returned to us.

We can't thank Mark enough - firstly for looking after the plaque and secondly for returning it to us. He's an absolute gem of a person and we appreciate everything he has done so far. 

Looking forward to the plaque arriving home.
