1972: Behind the Scenes at LEEDS UNITED | I Love Leeds | Classic BBC Sport | BBC Archive

Actor and screenwriter Colin Welland gets a look behind the scenes at his beloved Leeds United. During a toast at a banquet in honour of the 1972 FA Cup winners, the proud Lancastrian and rugby league die-hard explains what it is about this Yorkshire football club that appeals to him.
Over the course of the documentary, Colin plays dominoes in a local pub with Jack Charlton and Billy Bremner, joins a rigorous training session alongside the first team (to the point of vomiting), gets an equally rigorous rub-down from the boss, Don Revie and visits the club dressing room in the aftermath of a 3-3 draw against Ipswich Town, where he attempts to put a positive spin on the result to a frustrated Johnny Giles.
Clip taken from Sports Two: I Love Leeds, originally broadcast on BBC Two, 15 September, 1972.

As a youngster back then, Leeds were my favourite team, mainly because of the number of quality Scottish players they had. My favourite being Billy Bremner who always gave 110% and expected nothing less from his team, even when wearing the dark blue of Scotland his influence was incredible. I've got the greatest respect for Don Revie for literally knitting this team together, many who came from Scotland as schoolboys. It was more like a close family than a traditional football team. Thanks for the memories boys, for me, you were the best team ever.

[@Rivelino824]

That Leeds team were special and Revie is on a par with all the great managers in league football! We were lucky to have Jordan, Hunter and Cooper at Bristol City after they left Leeds, they were absolutely incredible, so at their absolute prime at Leeds they must have been even better. Personally, I think this was the best time to watch football, I find today’s football mostly boring!!

Of course they were a great team. I remember as a kid them coming to Molineux and we stopped them doing the double. Then the following year 1973 we lost to them in the FA Cup semi final at Maine road. It was always a big game Wolves v Leeds and still is. I enjoyed football more in those days than now. At least every team had a chance whereas now we have the so called big 6 with all the money. Once again that was a great Leeds side.

[@markauckland666]

Whenever there is talk of the great managers in English football, the names Shankley, Busby, Clough and the like always come up, the one man who never seems to get a mention, is Don Revie, what he did with that Leeds United team was extraordinary, imagine a club now going from the bottom of the Championship to the top of the Premiership, playing in major domestic and European finals in a space of half a dozen years , the man deserves to be granted more respect

[@dodgeme4555]

Don created the first truly clinically professional team. At their best no one in England could touch them. Clough was a nasty individual. Shankley was over rated, Paisley was the brains at Liverpool. Busby was fortunate to have Best and Charlton, the rest of that team were average.

A couple of observations: JG's comment about losing the title by a point came true, but of course the home draw with Ipswich wasn't the only point they lost that year. Second, Welland's final comment about loosening the reins was something Revie admitted he finally did in that brilliant title win in the 1973-4 season.

Scary.

What Don Revie did at Leeds was extraordinary. Took a team that were languishing in the second division in a city where football wasn’t even the most popular sport being in the traditional rugby league heartland (Leeds United were getting attendances that barely cracked 10,000 while the rugby league side were drawing crowds of around 50,000) and he took them to the top of the first division and made them a side that won everything bar the European Cup (having been cheated out of it in 1975).

You only say it's a man's game because of the way Chelsea physically battered Leeds in the 1970 Cup Final. It still makes me wince to see how the animal known as Chopper Harris assaulted Eddie Gray in the replay. Gray had run rings around Eddie McCreadie in the first game so Chelsea set their pet Rottweiler on him. I've hated the Chelsea c*nts ever since seeing that.

[@CB-xr1eg]

I agree, either Banks or Shilton would have completed that team.

[@EstelleCecil]

Statistically Gary Sprake was the best goalkeeper in the league from 1965 to 1970. Kept the most clean sheets of any goalkeeper. Bill Shankley said Gary Sprake's performance was key to Leeds winning the league in 1969 (Leeds only lost 2 games in the league all season) and both European trophies in that period. Gordon Banks was a proven world class 'international' goalkeeper. But his club record was no where near that of Gary Sprake. I doubt Leeds would of won many more trophies by swapping their goalkeeper in this period. Sprake made very few goalkeeping errors throughout his career but when he did, (Liverpool verses Leeds 1967 ) & (Leeds verses Chelsea FA Cup Final 1970) they got box office attention due to him usually being such a brilliant player. And you've got to ask yourself why Gordon Banks was never signed to play for a major top side even after winning the world cup? Liverpool, Man City, Arsenal, Man Utd, Everton, Leeds, Derby County? I agree Peter Shilton's arrival in the Brian Clough era would of made a difference but only if Peter Taylor was part of the management team. What happened later at Nottingham Forrest should of happened at Leeds 5 years earlier. Never mind, that's life...

[@selby16]

@@EstelleCecilSo what did sprake do at Birmingham .And what did wales win when he played for them , the reason Banks was not signed was money meant a lot then, and if Clubs had a decent goaly the directors said why waste it on anyone else regarless . \Banks was still the best ever goalkeeper,he did not have the leeds side in front of him you could have had any reasonable keeper in the leeds side back then and they would have done well. What im saying is Sprake was a good goalkeeper no doubt, but Banks was World Class, even Pele said that , Even Jonny Giles said Don Revie was too loyal to Sprake and he cost us lots, and thats Jonny Giles talking ,listen to Jonny Giles greatest leeds side, and he picked Nigel martyn as his best keeper , So gordon Banks would have been the perfect fit. or would you say Nigel Martyn was better than Gordon Banks .

My dad and I had a session ticket in the West Stand for years. Halcyon days. Unfortunately, in about 1972 or '73, when i was leaving the ground and got onto Elland Road, the police baton charged the violently unruly crowd. I almost got trampled underfoot by a tsunami of humanity trying to get out of the way of the mounted police galloping towards us. After that, I never went to another match. The Hillsborough disaster (1989) came as no surprise to me. Football crowds were breeding grounds for cruel thugs and hooligans. I don't live in England any more. I do hope football has become a little more civilised. I've never seen such violence in Australia at football or rugby matches. - Spirited support, yes, but never the savagery, such as I witnessed in England.
