The death, and life, of David 'Soldier' Wilson
On 27th October, 1906, a young Leeds City footballer died during a match against Burnley. That much was known. But over the years what else was known about him has become mixed up and forgotten. Here is the story of the death of David 'Soldier' Wilson, and the story of his life.
Battle of Britain '92: Elland Road
The Rangers players were each on a £20,000 bonus, but Howard Wilkinson wasn't thinking that far ahead. He said he didn't even know how many teams would be in the Champions League. "I was too scared to think about it."
Bristol City 0-0 Leeds United: Scruff and numbers
That stats for Joel Piroe and Nahki Wells backed up what the eyes saw, the red team being dominated out of attacking, the yellow team playing itself out.
Battle of Britain '92: Ibrox
The team playing at Rangers were the champions, and after 69 seconds Gary McAllister made winning the European Cup feel like a real possibility.
Leeds United 2-1 Watford: This much happening
You can dress up the Champions League with all the pre-game fireworks you want. Give me the random anthemlessness of a Tuesday night watching goalies going half-Rachubka and Ao Tanaka reinventing the sublime.
Leeds United 2-0 Sheffield United: The game in the mind
Chris Wilder got into the wrong mind, about the wrong things, peering sideways into Farke's head when he should have been staring into the eyes of Joe Rothwell.
Directions of deference
Brenden Aaronson, Thomas Tuchel, Bielsa against Suarez, Leeds against Sheffield United, surveys, bathroom facilities and cheap fans melting in the sun.
Alex Bruce ⭑ From A-Z since '92
The indignity is not necessarily his heritage or his puking, but that Leeds could just as easily signed any of a hundred other players who didn't look like Steve Bruce who would have been exactly the same.
A good cigar
A lot of this is just wanting to cut and paste favourite players into highlights of history. Like Mateusz Klich who, ideally, would like to cut and paste United's 2020 promotion into another era altogether.
