John Barber - I’ve been trying to remember when this first came in - certainly in the 70s there were plenty of knuckle-draggers sieg-heiling along with those doing the Leeds Leeds Leeds thing. Whilst I think the action has now been ‘reclaimed’, mainly because many of the old die-hards have moved

The bloke's explaining it away on Radio Leeds now. He's talking bollocks. "The salue is something the fans said Leeds United owned". WRONG. The fans own the salute, they're saluting the badge. How can the badge be a fan saluting the badge?? Makes no sense. It'll never see the light of day. And it

Lurkdom mode - OFF. Once we abandoned the City of Leeds badge, sometime in the 1960's I think, we then seemed to change our badge every other year. It wasn't until the "rose and ball" one - the one we won the 1992 Championship with - that we settled down to some season after season continuity. I

I don't have too much of a problem with the salute. But the badge is awful - like an MLS badge, or a kids' team. But, someone put it quite eloquently on Twitter - saying that the salute is an unspoken thing between Leeds fans. Like a masonic handshake or whatever. If you know about it, you know
