1991/1992 Season

[Marley past ghosts]

Where you watching them then CLIVE? or were you still too young? I will always remember the goal Cantona scored against Chelsea that it showed in the program - I was on the old Lowerfields road terrace standing about twenty feet down from the Kop so was directly behind him when he scored his wonder goal - for me that goal cemented his place in LUFC folklore...and I lost my jacket in the crowd surge that followed the old net bulging.
Cracking season that was!

that must have been the last time you went . lol

Marley - Bet yer didn't know Eric lived in a semi- detached house in Roundhay Leeds overlooking Soldiers Fields footy pitches and was always up for a game with the local kids on a Sunday afternoon and helped out teaching kids to paint in Chapletowns multi cultural youth centre on his day off .............
Brian Deane & Ellery Hanley to this day live close by in modest homes and still continue to support the local community too which is more than another local,Gerald Krasner who owns the biggest gaff in the area from his spoils of rescuing several football clubs in distress.

Definitely Roundhay but I was always under the impression that it was down the side of the main park as I went to Roundhay school and still knew a lot of people in the area. Soldier's Field is bordered by a lot of expensive detached house next to the school. He would've had kids in his garden every day on their way back and forth to school.

As a side note - was reminiscing with my brother the other day about Roundhay in the 70s/80s. Did any other schools close early because of the Ripper? We used to close in the winter around 1979/80 so we could go home in the light - one of the victims was found on Soldier's Field by one of my mates dads. Terrible times.

Roundhay - You were lucky,Foxwood on the bus us.
Strict as hell too,myself & husband,Ellery Hanley,Terry Connor,Martin Dickinson all got 'toughened up' there - David Harvey too.I escaped for good behaviour to Stainbeck High School Moortown with Terry Connor before I then got a free bursary to Leeds Girls High School.
I still play tennis on the free park courts at Roundhay Park to this day when over ........Eric lived near the allotments behind the courts I think.
Great days and I still can run up the steep steps from the park bottom to the park top !

[Acido]

I remember he (Ellery Handbaggy) always got smacked a lot at the old Boulevard/Hull Fc, especially when he started running his mouth.

Btw season 91-92 is when we Tykes first signed Neil Redfearn, theres a bit of tacky trivia for you lol.

grew up in Roundhay - happy days - Roundhay Park and the soldiers fields were a great summer playground. yep Jez a lot of the other schools closed early due to JtR

Carol Voderman used to live in Roundhay and Bill Fothrby lived in the house next to Roundhay School on Old Park Road for a while and then it became used as a house for young players to row up in, Garry Kelly, Mark Tinkler and a few others were there.
