2. Leeds United play in a white strip. White shows up grass and mud stains clearer than any other widely-used football kit colour. Hence the team is frequently referred to as "dirty Leeds".
Leeds City were expelled from the League in 1919 for financial irregularities. They were replaced by a new club, Leeds United who have been an exemplar of fairness and honesty every since.
Leeds United used to play in gold and blue but changed to all white to copy Real Madrid.
Leeds has the highest levels of childhood obesity in England and the 2nd highest level of adult obesity in England.
Met a Leeds fanatic living at Mission Beach in far north Queensland 2 years ago.....nice bloke actually, latched onto me when I was wearing one of my Charlton shirts....he owned a great little surf clothing shop...but boy did he miss his footie living in the middle of nowhere.
The word 'Anvil' is reputed never to have been spoken within a two mile radius of the main bus terminus in Leeds city centre. Nobody knows why, there was a rumour that an old lady tried it in 1984 but before she could complete the first syllable she swallowed her dentures and sadly died.
Locals attribute this to an old story involving a witch, a naked blacksmith and a phallically shaped fence post.
I used to watch Leeds in the seventies when I was a student. I used to wish I was watching Charlton. There used to be an indian cafe/restaurant near the ground where you could stuff yourself silly for about 50p. Those were the days. PS. I always secretly supported the away team!
Leeds had the first commercially successful steam railway line (in 1859).
In 1951/52 LT sold its newest trams, the Felthams, to the Leeds Corporation Transport Dept. where they gave good service for another 10 years.
Because of damage from polluted air caused by the woollen mills and other industries in 19th. century Yorkshire, Leeds Castle was dismantled and re-erected in Kent.
The Town Hall organ is 50 feet high., weighs 70 tons and has 6,500 pipes.
