We could have a whole new list of Leeds (either transferred from them/to them or played for them at some point - quite a broad criteria admittedly, but feel as if we’ve had more Leeds connections than we have with most other teams?): Shaw, Gavin, Rennie, Jordan, Hunter, Shutt, Taylor, Cooper, Baird, Ayling etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Shutt & Ayling joined them from us, vast majority made the reverse journey. Edited May 21, 2023 by GrahamC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Hay was another Scottish player we had who was quite good. The story according to Les Bardsley who was treating my mum at the time, was that the 3 Leeds players came as a sweetener for a deal to take Gerry Gow to Leeds to replace an ageing Bremner. The deal never went through because Revie went to Manage England and then ****** off to the Middle East.

Plus Tommy Burden who left Leeds as their captain, in Second Division, and came to us in 1954 in Third Division South which we topped at end of that season. Burden came here because he had a decent job at Clarks Shoes in Street. He stayed with City until 1963. One of the best midfield players that I've seen at City - real quality. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
