Sharing the obvious & obscure in Leeds United history. After 12 years on Twitter, 32k posts, 80k images shared - still there but the slow start on Bluesky starts now! Please help me re-build my audience - #lufc #LeedsCityFC #OnThisDay #MemoriesFromTheAttic
Basic records updated - leaving the technical & tactical interrogations to the stats experts. But all reflect a worrying outcome from United's latest defeat.
As last week, my only positive being the fact Leeds have played 90 games since having a player sent off; 107 since an outfield red card.

And to the MATCHDAY spotlights for Daniel Farke & his Leeds squad against Nottingham Forest.
The boss lost his first but has been unbeaten since against them with Norwich.
Several United players to face #nffc for the first time. Overall not many goals scored yet by the current #lufc crop.

Heading to Nottingham, with MATCHDAY #factfiles for Leeds v Forest.
Strange times at the City Ground - in Europe after flying high last season, but already on to their third manager of the current campaign - Sean Dyche back in the familiar relegation zone! 😅

MATCHDAY focus on previous 9th Novembers for Leeds. Not such a bad day, just a shame we aren't playing at #EllandRoad, unbeaten in 8 at home #OnThisDay!
Hat-tricks, penalties & own goals scored in United's favour - and no sending offs.
Can #lufc maintain this impressive long run without a red card?

Look at some of these Leeds United away travel prices from 1988/89.
£15.50 to the south coast and on Saturday just gone, Brighton cost us just three times as much on LUSC Griffin!
Others would cost more than a multiple of 3 nowadays - especially Shrewsbury!

What was this on one of the ITV regions in April 1974, bottom right?
"Elland Road", the last programme on the 'Southern' channel - and I checked, it was not on in the London area, but don't know about Yorkshire TV...
Could be an incomplete/shortened title like some others.
