Was thinking it was more to do with Leeds having a famous and quite large Jewish community, Marks and Spencer started here and he was Jewish, plus Manny Cousins, Lesley Silver.....( and Peter Ridsdale??? Not sure about that one)
Plus didn't Lorimor convert to go to play in Israel in the twilight of his career?????? I'm not aware Huddersfield has a Jewish community However these days wouldn't it be more topical to refer to Leeds as Somali, Afro Caribbean, Pakistani etc...... -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: 04 December 2012 11:18 To: [email protected] Subject: [LU] Fwd: Re: Anti-semitic Terriers? is it perhaps something to do with that book The Promised land, where the author came from Leeds' jewish community and talked at some length about the long and proud connenction between the club and that community, in particular...not condoning in any way the chants, just wondering if that's the derivation. _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email [email protected] PETE CASS (1962 - 2011) Rest In Peace Mate ----- No virus found in this message.
