the fans on the pitch when he was an unused substitute in the FA Cup replay
with Arsenal. "The last game for me was against Arsenal. It was at home and
I was on the bench. There had been rumours and talks with the manager and I
had a horrible feeling it would turn out to be my final game at Leeds, which
it turned out to be.
"I was so unlucky, I was just saying, 'please get me on the pitch in front
of the kop,` even if it was just for the final twenty seconds. It did not
happen and I managed to go out onto the pitch at the final whistle and clap
the fans.
"People say you have regrets. The one regret I will always have is the fact
that I did not have one last chance to play in front of the fans," added
Hughes.<< _______________________________________________
