Well done mate. That concurs what I thought. So the nay-sayers who write us off as Glory Supporters should look at that table. Obviously that figure has shot up, but it also shows there was a healthy structure, a hardcore base of fans, who watched us in one of our darkest seasons.

I remember spending my weekend leave watching the likes of the gibbons twins and tuipilotu(sp).
I remember being gutted when harvey howard and neil harmon left aswell cracking props on their day.

Young Morley and Fozzard were worth watching.

I was never a huge fan of either Harvey or Harmie (remember that radio show they had!!!

). Harvey was a better runner with the ball, but I felt that they lacked that belly of fire that was needed. It's only in recent years that we have built a solid, hard, set of forwards.

They were but morley was crazy f#*ker even back then.
It was shame fozzard kept getting injured.
I hate to admit but young foreshaw was a good player for us aswell.

Forshaw was terrible for us. Absolutley terrible. Couldn't catch a cold. I remember McGhan and or Bell commenting in an Evening post article about them working on his ability to catch (and hold) the ball in traffic.

he went off to RU and came back to the Bulls a 100% better player.

For some reason I don't remember much about that season. I started watching Leeds in 94 as a 10/11 year old and remember loving Jim Fallon and his hair but the 1st SL season escapes my memory (obviously for good reason

). 97 onwards is vivid in my memory.

Which year was it that we were denied beating Wigan in the last few minutes IIRC? Think Robinson scored. I sat in the North Stand then and it was at the now Carnegie end. That game sticks out in my head. Was that 97?

I thought he was a hardworker with potential but then again mick shaw was supposed to be the next big thing aswell

Oh he didn't shirk anything and he clearly had potential (which he later realised, sadly, with the Bulls) but boy did he have a bad case of the dropsies.

Just to add to this McDermott faked to go for a drop and then drove the ball in while the Wigwn defence was stood there looking silly. Cant remember if that ended up a try.

OK then!!!



It did look lovely when he run, all long and bouncy.



Fag.

Oi, loving his wing play ya foo'

His hair just added to the exitement

He was excellent, I have to say. I had him on the back of shirt at the time. And my mate at the time, had Tait on his, but he went to a cheapo shop, where they use nasty letters and numbers, and they spelt it 'TATE'. LMFAO for weeks.

It did end up in a try but that was against Wire wasn't it? IIRC

Not sure, could have sworn it was Wigan but I was young at the time. You should have better recolection than me

Sounds like Rd 4 of 1997 alright. Iestyn Harris' debut off the bench. Only McDermott didn't play in that one.

Yeah Wire it was. He ran diagonally across the left side of the sticks, of the East stand. That would have made a good 'What Happened Next' clip.

Cheers. Its just my young mind playing tricks on my and merging 2 memorable moments into 1

Speaking of tries against Wire, difficult to beat the one Harvey Howard scored where he basically left stud tracks all over Jonathan Davies in the process. Can't remember the year, but seem to recall Wire having that horrible green and white striped away kit that made them look like a Pacer.

I think that was this one:

22nd January 1995..... Leeds 30 Warrington 0. It was the same game that Craig Innes scored four opposite Warrington's right centre...... Iestyn Harris.

I’m struggling to remember the Leeds Met game on Sunday let alone what happened over a decade ago.

I don’t know how you guys do it?

looking back, was quite a few games i was present that season which suprises me as one reason and another i thought i hadnt attended many


The Cas game took place an hour or so after England vs Spain in Euro 96

remember the penalty shoot out on the big screen

I see your Davies embarrassment tale and raise you Kevin Iro slapping him all along the touchline down the Southstand and an ageing David Heron playing him off the park at stand off a few years earlier and getting 2 tries.

as I remember that incident Iro had the ball in his left hand and picked up JD by the shirt front with his right and ran along the touchline ..much to the amusment of the SS occupants

Right in the middle of a cracking spell of form at stand off that saw him scoring tries for fun. One of those against Widnes came from a lovely runaround and offload move with Paul Dixon IIRC. Mind, that was the game even Vince "no thumbs" Fawcett looked good.

Does Brimah Kebbie hold some sort of world record for being outplayed by Fawcett while at two different clubs?

thought it was halifax
