The Leeds United Premier1 racing car. Plans were to have motor racing with cars linked to football clubs. Seems like the idea was created in 2001, but the idea had collapsed by 2004. Benfica, Roma, Spurs, Feyenoord & Lyon were amongst others who were rumoured to be joining.

LNER advert for the Leeds United Supporters trip to Sheffield United, November 1924. Leeds United drew 1-1, in front of 30,000 supporters. LMS Railways also ran an excursion train from Leeds Midland to Sheffield Midland Station.

Possibly the first photo of Elland Road, 1906-07 opening fixture, Leeds City 1-1 Bradford City. Nearly 20,000 in attendance, crowd was lower then expected as temperatures reached over 33°C in the shade. The first league game on the newly remodelled Elland Road.

Picture of a picture from The Dragon Pub of an advert advertising a Leeds United v Bradford (Park Avenue) game. Would appreciate if anyone knows where I can get a copy of the picture.

The approach to Elland Road from under the railway bridge. Leeds Greyhound Stadium on the right, on the left what at the time was the Leeds Speedway on Fullerton Park with the Leeds United ground just visible. One of the stone gateposts on the right still stands today, 1930.
