Subject: Re: [LU] Old ore season tour in 92ish
Not helpful at all, but for what' it's worth I bet I'm the only lister who was
in the crowd when Leeds played Morocco in Casablanca in about 1981. It was in
the era when our team was packed with shit players whose name began with
H.........Hird, Hamson, Hart etc. Dreadful game...........ended 0-0.
