    Just been watching the late news bulletin. I'm sure Jimmy Armfield was a fine man, but did his relatively short stint as Leeds' manager mean that his death was more newsworthy to people in this area than that of the man who saved our club and was its custodian for all those years? I guess so...

    Not sure.

    Was out with one of the lads. Football training so missed all the news progs.

    I would have thought calendar would have had something on though.

    Pro tip... Don't watch local news.

    Unless you're from Leeds!
