I was very sad and surprised to hear about Gary Speed's death. What a fine attacking player he was. He gets the opener in this game, also memorable for Mervyn Day getting in a tangle in the net at the start....

Thanks to [MENTION=2422]Tony Meolas Loan Spell[/MENTION] for lending me the video.

Remember that game - some good players on display.

For full-back/winger FG was a decent header of the ball/

Great side Leeds had that season to win the old second division title.

Gordon Strachan, Gary Speed, Vinnie Jones, David Batty, Lee Chapman amongst others. I went to West Ham v Leeds early on in that 1989/90 season and Vinnie scored the winning goal that was a backheel fluke. Their fans went mental when he scored. Very frightening when I was only 11!

Worth watching it all, I find these old bits of footage always bring small details back, goal keeper getting tangled in the net!

Gary Speed goal at 5.00 if you don't have time...

I remember Ian Chapman's own goal from my vantage point in the North Stand, I also distinctly recall the coin throwing Leeds fans!

Wish we had someone with Dean Wilkins quality for set pieces now. Deano could float that ball on to a penny, great corner for the equaliser by Crumps.

Rip Gaz Speed.

Thats what Harey was signed for. Set piece/dead ball specialist apparantly.

Apart from that free kick against Peterboro he has taken corners Dean Cox would have been proud of as well as that penalty against Millwall.

So? Why did we sign him? He has done f*** all that Sparrow wouldnt.

Was that the bank holiday match when Leeds smashed up the town?

Aren't you getting confused between our seaside town and Bournemouth?
