Hampshire Whites: Back at ER

May 23, 2021

23rd May 2021 - Leeds United v WBA

A few members of Hampshire Whites, who were lucky enough to come out of the ballot, excitedly set off to Elland Rd. Getting the tickets, organising the transport and sorting pick ups felt very strange after so long away. We set off very early to make sure we could drink in the atmosphere - was there going to be an atmosphere or was it going to feel empty? 

We couldn't do our usual stop as it was full of motor bikers and we didn't want to waste too much time - so we had a service station stop - well unusual times!!

We arrived at Elland Rd and either drank or wandered around the ground remembering what we had missed!

The match itself was very emotional and felt more like a festival than an end of season match - thanks to West Brom for their contribution and to Pablo for some magic! The noise in the ground was amazing and added to the wonderful atmosphere.

We all had tears in our eyes when Bera and Pablo left the pitch. Then the 250 mile journey home!

A wonderful day, well organised by Leeds, and we are now looking forward to next season.

The Leeds United Supporters’ Network is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Terry Yorath, aged 75. Terry was a proud servant of Leeds United , a former Wales captain and manager, and a respected figure in football both on and off the pitch. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and all who knew him. Terry emerged as a strong, natural leader in Don Revie’s great Leeds United side of the early 1970s. Although born in Cardiff, Wales, he signed as a schoolboy, and went on to play a key role in the 1973–74 First Division title-winning team and featured in the 1975 European Cup Final, becoming the first Welshman to play in that competition’s final. He later enjoyed distinguished spells with Coventry City and Tottenham Hotspur, captaining Coventry with pride, and represented Wales with great commitment, earning 59 caps. Beyond his playing days, Terry gave much to the game as a manager, most notably with Wales, where he led a talented side that came heartbreakingly close to qualifying for the 1994 World Cup. His life was marked by personal tragedy, including the loss of his son Daniel and his presence at the Bradford City fire, events that showed his courage and humanity away from football. Terry Yorath will be remembered by LUSN members, and Leeds United fans everywhere, as a fierce competitor, a leader, and a man who represented our club with honour. As with all our legends, he will never be forgotten.
