Lovely read. Being from Leeds I always find it interesting what the opinion of the city is from people who aren't from Leeds, especially when they're not from the UK. It's easy to forget sometimes how beneficial having a widespread fanbase can be for the city's exposure, tourism, and growth...
#24for24: "Neither of us knew much about Leeds United, although I had vaguely heard the name in the past when people talked about soccer in England. But for my son, Leeds quickly became his team, in the video game world and, interestingly, in the real world as well."

Today is thst darkest of anniversaries, 13 years since I took a call from the desk asking me to check out a report that Gary Speed, the football hero, my friend, was dead. I’ll never forget that morning.
My thoughts are with those closest to him on this awful anniversary.
Talk to someone.
